The extravaganza form Of musical
diversion. as laid down by the Zieg-
feld-Dillingham production school.
evidently has little charm for
George White. the youthful im-
presario OF the annual Scandals
Mr.. White. on the contrary. has de-
voted himself to the rejuvenatIon OF
the faded glories of old-time bur-
lesaue-the era of comedy gun
PLAY. drum-fire dialogue, uncen-
sored witticisms and masculine
horse-plsy. To say that Mr.. white
has failed in his mission would
work an injustice on a conscien-
tious artist He mas revived a bur
iesque that has almost passed from
burlesque itself.
He has. of course. improved on
the old-fashioned setting. Mr..
Whites advertisement wallows in
cloth-of-gold scenery. 1t Includes
here and there. a fiashy effort or
two at the Weber-and-Field style
of travesty that Ziegfeld himself
has unfortunately abandoned. In
the main. however, Mr.. Whites
Scandals" efferyesces with the true
,burlesque spirit of an older day
and not all of his jokes will be
found in this family journal 1t may
be mentioned. however. that the
show contains at least one song
that is pleasing and at least one
skit that has elements of humor.
White seems never to nave
learned that sensuous grace and de-
lectable charm are usually divorced
from studied nastiness. This asa
foetida motif. has identified his pre-
vious productions and, while there
Is undoubtedly an audience for Just

1t is, in short. an entertainment for
lovers of stuffed-club comedy and
for those who ind nothing funny in
a book by Anne Caldwell or a lyric
by Wodehouse.
Miss Ann Pennington still heads
the cast Her dancing remains much
the same, though there is a hula
to add a touch Of newness. A gen.
t1eman named Holtz still has the
task of Offering up on the altar of
approval an endless assortment Of
salfcious gaggery. interspered with
a Song number or two that affords
little lift from the comedy mono
tcne of the performance as a whole.
Lester Allen alone qualities for a
certain humorous standing in
knock-about burlesque role and
makeup. though the episodes which
give him such opportunities reflect
little TO the credit of Bugs" Baer
or Mr.. White as humorists.
The song, Il Am Drifting with
the Tide" a really charming selec-
ton, was sung well by a pretty
singer whose name is lost in the
nazes OF a program which gave
the show in the order Of its non
appearance. Taken by and large,
Mr. Whites performance offers
anything but an Improvement over
his productions shown here in the
past.
II might be added. as an after
thought. that the most amazin;

which white makes a plea for free
tolls for American ships through

Mr. Hearsts favorite rabble-rous-
ers' and its injection gratuitous

somewhat astonishing but it leads
one to wonder whether Mr.. Hearst
has added Scandal producing to
his general list of accomplishments.

l.anier University of Atlanta, described as the
official college of the Ku Kux Klan has been placed
under eceivership proof that certain teachers
are unable to collect back salaries. The higher learn
ing in America may survive the threatened passing
CT Lanier and the Kansmen may not miss their col
ege in the least; nevertheless it is pity Lanier
to be closed before its and daughters present
the American public some comprehensive explana-
ton of the Khan movement. No except the grand
officers to know where the Khan is going or
why, and they won't tell. Some Lanierite might have
explained the riddle in monograph
1t would be interesting to know what subjects
l.anier taught, and how. Perhaps her teachers were
able to avoid telling students that the Catholic
Church performed mertorous services for the cause
Of civilization during the breakup of the Roman
Empire and the subsequent rebirth of political and
social order in Europe 1t would never do of course
for Khan teacher to admit that any good came out
OF Rome. But nmbler mental gymnastics would be
required to purge Christianity, by which the Khan
get great store of Jewish influences. 1t might have

Somehow in this maze of contradiction Lanier
University refused to Perhaps the Khan was
sufficiently highbrow; perhaps those in search of
learning discovered that institution so narrow in
creed and ntoleran in it's approach modern prob
lens could not give them anything worth while At
any rate Lanier failed to prosper. Its failure is a
hopeful sign 1t tells the world louder than its enc
mics could that the Ku Kux Khan is bankrupt intel
lectually and depends for life upon an appetite far
lower in the social scale than love of knowledge
light, and wisdom.

the United states was for crop OF $1,000
600 bushels IN the current year.
The carry over into the harvest year
1g22-23 is probably rather light, and pros
meets lcr ,he new crop in Europe not
favorable as last year. Reports received
indicate a reduction of at least 100000
acres in the area scwn to wheat, and weather
conditions generally have not been good, es-
pecially in central Europe.
To supply import requirements the crop
of the United States should furnish on
conservative estimate from 200,000,000 to
220. 900 00o bushels for export. In Canada,
if the crop is as large that of last year,
over 200 600 900 bushels should We available
for export. It is early as yet to estimate
next seasons crops in the southern hemi-
sphere but should the outturn be equal to
that of the 192122 crop, which represented
in both Australia and Argentina low rather
for export from these two countries an ag-
gegate of about 200 100000 bushels of
wheat This would make a total export able
surplus from the four countries of some
what over 500 900 600 bushels. In addition.
there will probably be some wheat exported
from the minor exporting countries.
While the present prospects thus indicate
a comfortable balance between supply and
demand for the 1929 harvest year, a
ducing area, such as might conceivably oc-
cur in Argentina ors Australia would cause
a definite world shortage of wheat.

Public Health Officials
Going to Porto Rico Soon

SAN JUAN. Porto Rico, Sept l.
AS a result Of the interest of the
Porto Rico Chapter of the Rod Cross
and an appeal from Governor Reilly,
the United States Public Health
Service, Washington, has agreed to
send DR. F. c. Smith. of the tubcr-
culOSfs section, to the island soon
to make a preliminary survey of the
extent OF the disease.
Work of the Red Cross during the
past year revealed the fact that there
is a great deal of tuberculosis not
only in San Juan, but throughout
the island. and in the annual report
it was stated that
There are no clinics especially for
diagnosis or treatment of this dis
ease, and only abou, 125 hospital
beds available on the island We
have often found as mony as 10 in
dividuals living in a single room with
an active case Of tuberculosis"
