MUST HAVE HIGH WAGES,
SECRETARY DAVIS SAYS

COLUMBIA. s. c.. February 1s-
America Is the best country in the
world and wages must be high il We
are to succeed as a nation" Secretary
Of Labor James J. Davis, told the
Columbia Lodge, Loyal Order Of the
Moose. IN an address here last night.
The address followed a secret meeting
OF the order after which the public
was admitted. Mr.. Davis will address
the state legislature this afternoon.
Mr.. Davis said that in America an
ounce of gold will purchase twenty
hours of work; in England, fifty
hours: in France, 100 hours, and in
Germany, 200 hours. High wages. he
said, were necessary II America was
to succeed as a nation. To reduce
wages OF those gainfully employed by
even one dollar day. would cut
down the purchasing power Of mil
lions OF men, he said.
What can you sell when wages are
low?' he asked. What good would 1t
do for a man to run advertisements In
a country like China. where wages
are low? 1t is great mistake to
think of having low wages for the
working man."

NOVEL FEATURE GIVEN
IN FLONZALEY PROGRAM
Second Concert Of Series by Quar-
tet Wins the Plaudits of
Large Audience.

The second concert Of the Flon-
zaley Quartet series in Central High
School last night under the auspices
of the Washington Society of the
Fine Arts brought the usual novelty
in the program. an unfamiliar adagio
from the Quartet in G." by Arnold
Bax, along with works by Schubert
and Beethoven. The Schubert GUAR
tet in A Minor. Opus 29," was played
with the firmness, clarity and tonal
richness for which the Flonzaleys
have long been celebrated. In this
unusually lovely work the players
reached the high-water mark in cham
ber music playing in this city. The
audience realized at once the superb
performance, and was enthusiastic
and insistent in it's applause. This
composition of q young Englishman,
Arnold Bax, shows pronounced indi-
viduality. He says easy and difficult
things. but never understates them
or allows his imagination to rest.
The concert closed with the Beeth-
oven Quartet, Opus So. No. q" in
which the four violins sang together
in almost unhuman perfection. The
mellow finesse which has always been
associated with this quartet was
never absent from their playing. The
great enthusiasm Of the many hear
ers which such playing produced has
remained unchanged Several en-
cores were given. among them the en-
trancing Mendelssohn "Canzonetta"
and a a,Boccherini minuet.
The audience never semeed more
responsive and enthralled than last
night.
