P[AYF RIGHT HAS PRODUCED THIRD
 PLAY FROM JAIL
Ernest Toller Has Seen None Of Them Produced, As
 Release Denied

BERLIN, Oct. 10.-By Associated Press .)-Ernst Toller, the communist playwright who was imprisoned for participation in the uprising of 1919, has had another play produced-the third since he was jailed. He has seen none of them performed
 Toller's communist friends vainly sought his release so that he might witness the production of his Ma chine Wreckers" aid his Mass oi Men," both of which attained consid- erable success in Germany and have been sold for American presentation. The Reichstag was petitioned without success for his temporary release to see the plays last year.
 Efforts to win freedom for him so that he might see the initial produc- ton of his new play, The German War Cripple" were also fruitless. Critics say the plot has deficiencies which Toller might have corrected had he been able to see the play acted on the stage.
 Toller's previous dramas have dealt with, the fate of the working class. "The German War Cripple" ]" which is the story of a wounded vet eran who is foresaken by his wife. is devoted to a discussion of the fate of the individual under the conditions prising from the war. Anarchists, politicians, socialists and ideaiists become involved in general debate in the course of which the plot is ob- scured. Apparently the playwrights conclusion is that only man can help man and that political parties and changes in social organization are nSp1nSS rt

His chief assets are a big heart, a big pocketbook, and infinite con fidence in Calvin Coolidge. He is a political amateur more like William Cooper Procter tho soap king, who was Leonard Woods good angel in 1920.
 Like Coolidge. Stearns is man of few words. But he is more jovial and a ready smile softens the hard set mouth, and his short stocky frame often shakes with mirth. He drives a business bargain to the last cent. and then goes out and hands over his profits to Q home for orphaned newsboys. lie has given huge supns to charitable institutions in Boston. particularly to the chil- drens hospital. Bunker Hill home for boys and South End house, the lamous social home. He is a regular contributor to the Congregational church.
 stearns is guest at the White House now and may be seen any day riding around Washington in the big blue, automobile emblazonea with the presidential crest, always alone. He slips in and out of Wash ington as his business in Boston per- mits. He was present at the Borah dinner Wednesday night, but ex- cused himself after the meal to leave the President alone with the senator
 Stearns is making no effort to capitalize his friendship with the President. He has brought no job seekers to the executive offices only a tourist or two from Boston, who wanted to see the inside of the White House. He says he wants no office himself. He has no hobbies CT pet views which he seeks to thrust on the President. They sit for hours in the evening sometimes, with scarcely a word passing pe- tween them-the real test of friend ship according to Emerson.
 The only thing he ever asked of Coolidge-and the incident that brought them together-was refused. When Coolidge was in the Massachu- setts legislature, Stearns. an Am herst grad, sought small appro- priation for his college. Coolidge refused to turn a hand then, but at the following session put it through without ever mentioning the matter to Stearns again.
 Stearns has held only one public office--for old time sake, he was a presidential elector in 1920 when Coolidge was on the ticket as vice president.

COMMITTEE HEARS. CRITICISM AGAINST
 RESERVE SYSTE M
Government Monopoly Urged By Representative Of
 Farmer-Lab Party

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-A govern ment monoply in banking was urged today by Westley starr representing the national committee of the farmer labor party who testified before a joint congressional committee investi- gating enlargement of the federal re- serve system.
 No. group of men," said AIr. Starr
 should ever be permitted to exercise the powers now vested in the fed eral reserve board"
 The witness declared he favored having the banking of the nation en- trusted to the postal system with the local postmasters acting as the governments agents in the receipt of deposits and the making of loans,
 Mr. Starr was one of several wit nesses who alternately defended and criticized the methods of the reserve board. At one point, during the-testi- irony Of F. R. Jones of Atlanta, who represented the country bankers as sociation of Georgia. the whole com iilittee became involved in protracted discussions of the Georgian's charges, Governor Crissinger, of the board in- terrupted MT. Jones to say the banks throug hout the country would be free of coercion by the board in determin ing whether they would agree to par collection of checks.
 Flames Reserve system.
 Non- member banks, MT. Jones as serted, are not interested in the fed eral reserve and generally believe il to be against the best interests of the country to develop a unified bank , ing machine. The system, he said, had made the World war cost the peo- ple of the United states 30 per cent more than it should have cost. He expressed the belief that it was to the interest of agriculture that the state banks and trust companies remain outside the system because. by doing so. they could handle paper which would be prohibited otherwise.
 Denying that recent legislation had resulted in the establishment of real rural credits system. Mr. Jones urg ed that Congress establish bank ing system for agriculture as it had for commercial business.
 Cooperation between the federal { and state governments must be ob- tained to stabilize ,and standardize the banking business, Frederick A. ! Delano, director of the Federal Re serve bank at Richmond, Va, told the committee.
 Opposes Change.
 Opposing material changes in the system, MT. Delano expressed the opinion it's membership could be in- creased if a bank was permitted to eSldDIfSu bIdil1liCS III Aiit NOhIiSJ Ill which it is located.
 The committee should consider, he said, changing present laws so as to apay member banks interest on their reserve deposits and also to divide among the member banks part of the profit made by federal reserve system.
 The accomplishments of the fed eral reserve system have been marvel ous." Mir. Delano said, and think | we should not grow inpatient

GUESS AGE OF ARTIST

America will soon have an oppor- tunity to guess the age of Mattis Bat tistini. The famous Italian baritone. who has just completed a series of successful concerts in central El'- rope with Claire Dux, the German soprano is leaving soon for New York for series of concerts. Frau len Dux. who was in the United States last year, will accompany him.
 Battistini's age is mystery but there are no doubts as to the merits of his art.
 Music critics insist that he was fa- nous in opera forty years ago and estimate his age at anywhere from 66 to IS years. He ranks with Lilli Lehman in having preserved his voice long after his contemporaries went into retirement. He has seen two generations of German singers disappear from the operatic and con- cert stages.
 Berlin never fails to give Battis- tini a crowded hall. Music students try to learn the secret of his method which. like Lehmann's, does not wear out the voice.

Frank w. Stearns, Helped President Ten Years Ago,
 Is Close Friend
By RAYMOND CHAPTER CLeased Wire to The Age-Herald

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O-In his short term at the White House President Coolidge has found, as Harding. Wilson and Taft before him discovered to their disillusionment, that the Presidents hardest job is to find out the truth. He is beset from morning to night with callers cabinet members, senators, congress- men, politicians. business men, heads of civic and commercial organiZa- tions-all bent on selling" him some pet idea. or person.
 Coolidge, like his immediate pre- decessors. has found. that the only antidote for this situation is to col lect little group of trusted disin terested friends. in whom he has complete confidence. He is now gathering these friends about him, the men to whom he can turn in moments of perplexity, and who will have a greater part than the world will ever know in shaping the im- portant policies of the new adminis- tration.
 First in this group, because of his prior association with Coolidge, comes Frank w. Stearns, the Bos- ton dry goods merchant, and the original Coolidge angel This friendly, big hearted. philanthropic business man nursed the Coolidge boom m it's infancy nearly 10 years ago, when the President was strug- gling in the Massachusetts legisla- ture.
