Berlin Comedies
Change More
Than Opera

Berlin, Nov. 24.-(A. P)-Musical
reviews, comic operas and moving
pictures are monopolizing so many
OF the well-known theatres in Ber-
lin that the legitimate drama finds
them very serious competition and
many oldtime actors who cannot
adapt themselves to the musical
stage or the moving picture are out
OF work.
Operettas and musical comedies
charge higher prices than the opera
houses which are producing grand
opera. When FRITZ Massary, the
leading musical comedy star Of
Germany. opened recently in Il new
production the best seats sold for
( $40 each for the opening perform
ance. In all the leading musical
shows the best seats regularly bring
50, and even the cheaper seats are
higher than corresponding seats IN
the four houses where grand opera
is being produced nightly.
Leo Slezak and a number of other
former grand opera singers have
gone into Berlin comic operas be-
them. 1t. is cheaper now i'll Berlin
to hear Wagner opera sung by
artists of international reputation
and accompanied by an orchestra of
eighty than it is to hear an operetta
OF Leo Fall or Oscar Strauss or Il
review by unknown composers.
Many musical critics say Berlin
car never support four houses play
ing grand opera and predict disaster
if the number is not reduced.

Internal Parasites
Menace Livestock
BY NEA Service

Washington, Nov. 24.-With the
cattle tick almost wiped out, and
milk and meat production increas-
ing. southern cattle raisers face an
other menace.
Internal parasites are said to be
doing relatively more damage there
than in the colder regions, because
of the climate, says DR.. B. II. Ran
som of the bureau of animal indus
try here.
The elimination of the tick and the
resultant increase in animals in the
south, he believes, are two reasons
for expecting an even larger rate
of damage from the other pests. To
make the government and state tick
work effective, now that it has
shown favorable results, it will be
necessary to pay more attention to
the elimination Of the other para
sites.
Such are stomach worms. lung
worms and many kinds of intestinal
worms.
