THE production OF Tales Of Hoff-
man." to be given tomorrow
night at the President Theater by the
Washington Opera Company, will
mark another chapter in the musical
history of America. according to
Edouar1 Albion, general director of
the company.
Departing from the method pursued
with former productions of the opera,
the company will abandon the de-
leted score heretofore followed in
America and will use the original
score.
This will mean the singing OF sew
eral additional arias and beautiful
bits of lesser Importance. The most
n notable of the added arias is the bari
tone area of Coppelius, in the second
act. Josef Schwarz. whose sin ging of
"Rtgoletto" last year won applause,
will sing this and the other three
baritone roles in tomorrow nights
performance.
Decision to abandon the deleted
score usually followed, Mr.. Albion
said, was the result of the acquisi-
tion this season of Jacques Sama ssoud
as director. Mr.. Sama ssoud was con-
ductor of the Imperial Opera Com
pany of Russia when st. Petersburg
was famous musical center. On
his departure from the company the
honor of a farewell performance was
given him, with the privilege of Sc
lecting the opera TO be sung He

WORKERS WAGE RATES ARE UNDER
 THEIR CONTROL

Trenton, N J., Dec 6-The workers may dispose of their labor power as they see fit, individually or in combina-. ton, declared the New Jersey court of errors and appeals in setting aside an injunction against Newark painters en- forcing certain sections of their general constitution. These laws provide that where an outside contractor secures a job in another city he must pay the highest wage rate of the two cities. The New Jersey painting company sub sidary of the Barker painting company of New York, secured an injunction against the enforcement of this rule. The injunction prohibited any member of the painters union from advising other painters not to work for the com plainant company.
 In annulling the injunction, the high courts said the rule complained of does not discriminate against any one Tt applies to all alike, automatically, who come within the prescribed rule.
 Economically" the court continued, tthe conclusion reached by the lower court confuses the possible or probable effect of the defendants action upon the employers with the defendants rights.
 "The law gives the defendant a right to sell their labor to whom they please, when and under such conditions as they may fix, individually or in combination They may make rules and regulations passed in good faith, providing for what they deem to be an economic advantage to themselves. Iflin the enforcement of such rules apd regulations, they violate no law, but act solely for the declared purpose, the courts ought not and can not legally enjoin them from such con- certed action simply because such action may effect some employers.
 "How can it be said that such rules and regulations create an unfair re- straint of trade? If the law gives the workers such rights it must protect them in their enjoyment They can not be enjoined from their use or inter ] tered with by the courts.
 Employers have no vested interest in the labor of workers" -
