WARSHIPS UNFIT BEING
 SENT TO GUANTANAMO
Sar,ls Are Ready To Repair Them

Washington. Feb. 22--The four old CT battleships of the Atlantic scouting fleet, the Arkansas, Wyoming, Utah and Florida, which were withdrawn from the West Indian maneuvers and sent to Culebra on account of the un- fit condition of their boilers, have been ordered to proceed to Guantanamo, Cuba, preliminary to going to the New York and Boston navy yards for repairs.
 The orders direct that. in proceed ing from Culebra to Guantanamo, the battleships shall stick to a head of only 1S0 pounds of steam. On arrival at Guantanamo the four vessels will wait until material has been assem- bled at the Boston and New York navy yards before proceeding north for repairs. The repair work ordered is all that can be done under present statutory authority, it was explained today at the navy department. It was added that a general overhaul of the boilers of these ships would cost considerable amount, and could not be done without cohgressional authority. It was said the cost would be almost as much as to convert the ships from coal to oil burners.

FOREIGN TALENT
 GETS PREFERENCE
". A. Brady Accused Of DisCrimi-
 nation Against Americans

New York, Feb. 22.-In all branches of art and literature, foreigners are given preference over native American talent, William A. Brady. theotrical producer. declared in a club address last night.
 He further charged that the Metropolitan Opera House was entire ly alien in personnel, methods and organization. asserting that Americans had no chance there and that ii was not a national home of music, as it purporied to be.
 "I don't care whether it's art, poetry, music. literature or the thea ter" NIr. Brady said. "The cry it: down with the native American; up with the foreigner Look at the an- nouncements at Carnegie Hall. Do you see any American names? Not bit of it. The list is foreign, from top to bottom"
 He criticised as the latest example of this craze for imported goods, the recent proposal to build a theater for Max Reinhardt, the German play right producer, and suggested that the sponsors build a theater for some American actor or actress.
 Edward Zeigler, assistant managing director of the Metropolitan Opera House, denied the producers charges concerning that institution, asserting that close to forty per cent of the total number of singers at the Metropoli- tan were Americans. He added that the orchestra and chorus were almost entirely recruited in this country and that the administrative staff was com pletely American.
 Americans are given every chance here" he said. We hear each season hundreds of voices and engage such as We believe will qualify later for the, !, test of singing opera before our very audiences"
