CHAL|AP|N DISPUTE
CONTINUES forage
Not Controversy Between
Companies, Albion Says.
Woman Gives Views.

Although the operate controversy
which has arisen in Washington over
the services of Feodor Chaliapin, Rus
sian singer, being given to the Wash
ington Opera Company for date
prior to his appearance here with the
Chicago organization, continues, Ed
ward Albion, director of the Wash
ington company, stated this morning
that it IS not a controversy between
thte Chicago Opera Company and the
Washington Opera Company.
Mrs. Katie Wilson-G Greene, local
manager for the Chicago Opera Com
pany's performances here in Febru
airy, issued statement today that
that company's claims are being
handled directly by Herbert NJ. John
son. manager. In addition Mrs. Greene
says:
THE display of apparent feeling
against me in the statement of the
local opera company relative to the
appearance of Mr.. Chaliapin may be
answered by simple statement. I
will not enter into any controversy
with the newspapers in a matter that
concerns only the management of the
Chicago Opera Company and Mr..
Chaliapin's manager. My contract is
with the Chicago Opera Company.
LAS / have at no time had any
interview or conference with any
body connected with the local opera
company, many statements made
seem to be unwarranted and with
out foundation. am even quoted in
several instances which would lead
the public to believe that 1 had ac-
tually discussed the matter with
them.
Il am in possession Of facts that
perhaps / may be forced to state
later on, but. at the present time,
feel sure that the Chicago Opera
Company, one of the two leading
opera companies of the world, Is
fully capable in every way of settling
its own affairs"
Felicitated By City.
Cuno H. Rudolph has made public
letter sent yesterday by the Board
of Commissioners of the District of
Columbia to Chaliapin in care Of
his personal manager, S. Hurok, in
New York. in which is stated:
1T gives the Commissioners Of the
District of Columbia great plea sure
to welcome you to the National Capt.
tai in the role of Mephisto in the
production of Faust with which the
Washington Opera Company Is to
open its current season in the new
civic Auditorium Monday evening.
January 26.
THE knowledge OF your appearance

director of the Washington Opera

can do more to relieve suffering and
make sick people comfortable than
anybody else"
A special plea is being made in the
campaign in behalf OF sick mothers
in the poorer sections of the city.
They have. finally surrendered to the
strain of their home life, and now
absolutely require the care of visit
ing nurse during several hours of the
week. These mothers are usually un-
derfed and overworked. The constant
worry of their children, their uncer-
tain income, the dread of unemploy-
ment, the swift approach of prema-
ture old age. the hopeless future,
have all combined to break down
their health. depressing and disheart-
ening them and destroying their
courage.
Aid in Checking Cancer.
DR.. Harry II. Kerr president of the
Washington Society for the Proven
ton of Cancer. today Endorsed the
work of the visiting nurse in check
ing the spread of cancer in Wash
ington. DR.. Kerr said: Visiting
nurses, who go regularly into the
home to give bedside care to the sick
frequently discover in their natural
contact with the family some mem
Der who has a painless growth which
she is prone to regard as harmless.
The nurse is in a position to direct
the patient to her physician for ex-
animation. diagnosis and care. Hav-
ing won the confidence Of the family,
she is often able to persuade re-
luctant member Of the importance Of
such early care"

and has a brilliant art future, draw
ing its inspiration from a people who
combine the thoughts and sentiments
of all the great peoples of the world
including your own.
THE Washington Opera Company
should become a medium of national
musical expression, embodying the
ideals and hopes and inspirations OF

in Washington, but to all Americans.

know that you are to- appear here

Joseph T. l.. Henry, many years

GERMANS STAND FIRM.
Commercial Leaders Bitterly Op.
pose Recovery Tax.

BY Radio to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
BERLIN. November 20.-''No 26 per
cent" This is the cry one hears in
all the commercial circles of Berlin.
The Germans are negotiating COM
mercial treaties furiously with Great
Britain and France, ard their first
demand is for the abolition Of the
26 per cent direct levy.
The Germans desire to be rid of
the levy. first, because it constitutes
transfer Of funds from Germany
without the permission of the trans
fer c. mmittee; second, because. if it
is initiated by all other creditor
states, il can create frontier compli-
cations of the greatest kind, giving
rise to huge bureaucracy and end
less errors and disputes; third be-
cause it enables an interested gov
eminent TO follow too closely the
private business between individuals
and use the information for spe-
officially national purposes, without
reciprocity; fourth, because it is un-
doubteGly the kind of tariff which
ologically discourages Germans
from selling and foreigners from
buying.

Lone Cabbage Isle
Claimed by Many;
Held Public Land

A score of attorneys for claim
ants to Lone Cabbage Island and
three other islands in Lake Worth,
Fla, attended an Interior Depart
mant hearing today on a dispute
over ownership of the islands, now
of great value as result of the
development of West Palm Beach.
The hearing is on an appeal by
the State of Florida from Land
Office decision which declared the
islands to be public land. Two
attorneys for the State, which sold
Lone Cabbage Island for $4,000,
argued the islands did not exist
when Florida entered the Union in
1S45, but have since been formed
by the deposit of silt and the low
ering of the lake

Special Nurses Engaged.
The society has been compelled this
early in the season to engage several
special nurses for whom no provision
has been made in the budget and this
demand for more nurses will steadily
increase when the cold weather
comes. Mrs. Cross. president of the
society, said today. "The require
ments which we are facing do not
consist of something which may be
deferred" she said. 1T is inevitable
that people will become i'll and that
many should have the care of a
trained nurse. 1t is not as though
we were trying to raise some money
for building project, or some other
proposal which may or may not be
carried out. Sickness simply must
be reckoned with and it has been
demonstrated that our visiting nurses
