Broadway's Preparing
for Fall Customers
BY JAMES w. DEAN.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-This is the
last week of the theatrical summer
solstice. Not new play opens. How
ever, the buyers are coming to town.
The buyers come from everywhere,
from Snohomish, Wash, and Paw
Paw. Mich. to buy everything from
undergarments to feathers. They also
come to buy front seats at Broadway
shows.
After they leave town these buyers
"sell" the current stage attractions.
They advertise the merits and de-
merits Of the shows by word OF mouth.
Such word-of-mouth news is mightier
than any critical pen. Thus the sue
cess of many a show is dependent on
the verdict of these visiting buyers.
T. T. +
Four new plays are. listed for the
first week of the buying season. They
are I'm Love With Love-, Thumb
Down. 1.-The Whole Towns Talking
and 1.-The Good Old Days"
Then will follow the avalanche. A
total Of PIG plays is scheduled for
production this coming season. OF
course. that many will probably not
break onto Broadway, but Z they're
scheduled. anyway.
i
This hiatus in the stage season al
lows the attention to be drawn to the
staged features in the Broadway pic
ture houses. Many of the prologue
and musical numbers at the Capitol,
the Rivoli, the Strand and the Rialto
are more artistic. more pretentious
than some of the numbers in the
flashiest of the stage revues.
Maria Gambarelli. 10, has just been
made ballet mistress at the Capitol
She is also the ballerina. She is prob
ably the youngest girl in the world to
hold such a dual position.
This writer always has felt himself
unqualified to speak discerningly on
the so-called esthetic dances. Per
haps that is due to some lowbrow ele-
ment in his makeup, but interpreta-
tive dances seldom interpret anything
to him Such dances. as a rule, usual
" distract the attention from some
fetching tune.
However. Gambarelli has at least
added to his appreciation Of Tchai-
kovskys Nut Cracker Suite and,
with Alexander 0umanski. to de-
lightful revel in Kreisler's Caprice
Viennois.''
Other popular numbers danced by
Gambarelli are 'Papillons," Glow
Worm" La Gioconda'' and the
Faust, waltz.
If one is pursuing the arts on
Broadway, the motion picture palaces
cannot be passed by.
T.
S. L. Rothafel engaged Gambarelli
and Oumanski for the Capitol three
years ago. Oumanski's art in cho-
geography attracted such attention
that his fame spread the breadth of
the land He arranged the dances in
the Inflated production Of As You
Like It." by the American NcionAl
Theater He is now playing a prom
inent part in the Little Thea+er move
ment in Detroit Mile. Gambarelli
succeeded him as chief Of the Capitol
ensemble.

itol ensemble who has gained great
distinction She is Doris Niles. This

BREAD GOES Up,
WHEAT IS DOWN
WHAT'LL We Do?
No CreditabIe Explanation Of
Uneconomic Antics in
Bakeries,

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-Wheat
goes down in price and bread prices
go up!
What's the cause Of, or rather, the
answer to this situation?
In a great many cities of the coun-
try today bread is selling as high as
10 cents for one-pound loaf. Wheat
is selling today at about 80 cents
bushel at the country market.
Just short time ago wheat was
selling at the country market at S1.40
a bushel and bread was selling at 8
cents for a pound loaf.
Going back a bit in bread history.
the Food Administration had some fig
ures on bread costs.
When flour was sold at 81 a barrel
the food administration had figures
that bread could be produced and
sold at ABS cents for a pound loaf
When -four reached IS a barrel, bread
costs were figured at 4.6S cents for
a pound loaf.
Real Costs Same
reason lot existing DTSdu prices
caused some investigation here by
Government statisticians also because
Of comparisons with the period of
scent loaves or say back in 1913.
Wheat and -four prices have not ad-
vanced greatly since then. Labor
costs have advanced. but it is doubted
that production costs have gone up
because much more of the production
today is by machinery. In fact, ma
chine labor is practically the whole of
bread making. The overhead costs.
including salaries, rents or taxes. have
increased. But taking it all. the ques-
ton with the Government is whether
this increase would justify ar advance
Of cents in a pound loaf OF bread.
On the other hand. the old-time
baker is passing out-if he has not
largely passed out. Ten years ago,
there were almost as many bakers in
a community as there were grocers.
Since then. the bakery business has
been "integrated" until today there
is a real bakers trust either through
one gigantic corporation or through
very close cooperation. What tina de-
velopment has had to do with bread
costs is another matter for cons!dera-
ton.

POPE'S CONSOLATION
Is SOUGHT FOR MISS
MACSWINEY IN JAIL
CAPT. OLIVER S. PERSON

DUBLIN, Feb. 25.-(By Associated
Press,)-Mary MacSwiney, sister of
Annie MacSwiney, who recently was
arrested by the Free State authorities
and now is in Kilmainham prison on
a hunger strike, has sent an appeal
to Pope Plus to see that Miss Mac
Swiney receives religious consolation,
which she charges Is not being given
her. The message TO the pope says:
Most Holy Father The younger
sister of Terence MacSwiney, who
was honored with the blessing of
your predecessor on his death bed in
Brixton priso9 is now IL days on a
hunger strike for the same cause.
She is refused the consolation of the
sacraments, which she had daily, be-
cause of unjust political partisanship
of the bishops, who have refused to
follow the example of your holiness.
Grave offense is being caused to
sincere Catholics by the grave injus-
tice of the bishops. / appeal to your
holiness to insure for my sister the
consultations of religion, as she ap-
pealed for me last November in SIM
liar conditions.
1.-The unfair political action of the
Irish hierarchy is not only harming
the fight for a republic, but it is
fraught with grave consequences to
the religion of the less educated
Catholics, who. in resenting injustice,
do not distinguish between individual
bishops and the church."

TWO HELD FOLLOWING
HUGE FIND OF GUNS.
AND HAND GRENADES

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-While police
and federal agents today were con-
tinuing their investigation into the
discovery of a huge cache of hand
grenades, cartridges, rifles and ma
chine guns found last night in the
basement of West Twenty-fourth
street lodging house, Joseph OBryne,
the proprietor and Edward Hoey
were held in $4,000 bond each for
examination March 1, charged with
unlawful posses: ion of fire arms.
Further search of the district failed
to reveal additional ammunition.
Hoey, who was arrested while I'M
loading crates of cartridges and
grenades from truck into base
ment told the police that he had
been hired by two men to bring the
explosives from Hoboken, N. j. He
denied that he knew that the boxes
contained explosives.
O'Byrne admitted he had rented the
basement for a month to two men
who told him they were ammunition
dealers and had permits to store the
materials. He was unable. he said,
to furnish the names of the men.
Officers of the bomb squad opened
a number of the cases and found
charged hand grenades, steel jack
eter machine gun ammunition, rifle
and pistol cartridges. The ammu-
milton corresponded with the calib-e
of the rifles and machine guns. The
explosives, they said, were in guam
titles sufficient to blow up large
section of the city.
The investigation is centered upon
the possibility that the explosives
were stored in preparation for ship
ment abroad.

CURIOUS WEATHER.
TWISTS IN ARCTIC.
REGION BATTLING.
Whole World Affected by
Mysterious, Changes-Un-
heard of High Tempera-
lures Are Reported

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-Arctic re-
gions seem to be warming up in GER
tain portions and growing colder in
others, and. as the conditions affect
weather all over the earth, experts
of the weather bureau are endeavor-
ms to solve the mystery.
In the Greenland sea, north of Eu-
rope, milder weather and less ice
than ever before hes prevailed this
winter, while in the Boring sea and
in the regions north of America, I'M
usually heavy ice has been reported.
The cause of the unusual conditions
has not been fathomed- by meteorole-
gfsts.
The Gulf stream. which circles
around the Gulf of Mexico, passes
through the Straits of. Florida and
sweeps northeastward across the At
lantic ocean and between Iceland and
Norway, has been traced by one
oceanographic expedition as a warm
surface current beyond the eighty
first parallel of latitude, which
would be some $500 miles north of
Hammerfelt, Norway
Find Ice-Free Waters
This expedition sailed as far north
as 81 degrees, 20 minutes in ice-free
waters.
Arctic ice conditions are said to be
exceptional in this particular region
and many old landmarks are so
changed as to be unrecognizable.
Where formerly great masses of ice
were found there are now often ac-
cumulations of earth and stones. At
many points where glaciers formerly
extended far into the sea about the
Island of Sptsbergen, 1000 miles
north of Norway, they have entirely
disappeared.
The change in temperature has
brought about great changes in the
flora and fauna of this portion Cf the
Arctic. Former great shoals of white
fish have disappeared from Spitsber-
gen waters and the seal catch is far
under the average. Herring and
smelt, however, are now found in
great numbers.
Temperature Unusually High.
Fishermen, seal hunters and ex-
plorers who sail the seas about tSpits-
bergen and the eastern Arctic all re-
port these radical changes in climatic
conditions, and hitherto unheard- of
high temperatures in those waters.
In contrast to these mild cond-
tions, tho unusually heavy ice in the
western Arctic regions, north of
Alaska and in the Boring. sea, have
caused the weather bureau to fore
cast famine conditions in northern
Japan this year. After winters when
ice conditions in that region are I'M
usually severe, summers invariably
have been so cool that the crop of
rice, on which the people in those re-
giCns largely depend for food, could
not mature, famine conditions result
ing.

Congress- Neos<s Close With All Calendars C1oqqe
PRESIDENT AND PARTY
READY TO LEAVE SOON
ON VACATION CRUISE

WASHING TON, Feb. 25.
Friends of Attorney General
Daughterty, who is recovering from
illness, hope that he will be able to
return to his desk at the department
of justice this week, although it is
regarded as probable that his
physicians will advise against a re-
turn to government duties before
leaving here with President Harding
for a rest in Florida.
Tentative plans call for the de-
parture of the presidential party
the day after Congress adjourns.
AS yet, no announcement of person
mel or itinerary has been made at
the White House, although it has
been indicated that the President
will be away from Washington for
about a month and will spend part
of the time cruising on houseboat.
1t is understood that in addition to
