had no wings, neither did the bunny

they both asked in the same breath.
II forgot you are wingless," an

around at the question. Let me see,'

something. Just then a big black

German Actors Pay
Decided by Arbitrators

Berlin, May ga. p. by NIaiD--
The long conflict between the theater
producers of Germany and the stars,
OF prominent actors, as they call
themselves, has at last been ended.
me stars have scored what will
PROBABLY prove an empty victory.
The clause in the managers gree
ment TO which they particularly OBJ
Jected was that by which they were
placed in four hard-and fast classes.
with definite maximum fees for each
class They declared this was incom-
patlble with teir dignity as artists,
and that no artist could submit to
having such a strait jacket put on
him.
Tie classification has been aban-
doned. Every actor is free to make
his arrangements from play to play
But whenever an actor wants to
emerge beyond the ordinary class
whose maximum fee is fixed at $75
night, an arbitration board of three
men must deliver an opinion as to
whether his claim for a higher wage
is justified.
The feeling in German theater cir
cles is that the stars have saved
their pride at the expense of their
pocketbooks.

HELPING LEPERs At cULIoN

Zone of the many efforts made by
Americans soon after taking possess
sion of the Philippines was to es-
tablish on the island of Culion a
colony for the lepers. Under Doctor
Heiser government vessel was
cemmandeered to transport the lep-
cts that were rounded up. The crew
fled but Captain Hilgrove, a Maine
man by the way, and his engineer
staid by the ship and the work went
OF. Great improvement was effect
ed in the condition Of the lepers of
the Philippines.
Then came the administration of
Wilson and the laxity which prevail
ed under it's representative in the
islands, and little heed was paid to
the lepers. The policy of segregat-
ing the children Of lepers, children
are born clean. is said to have been
discontinued under the Filipino con-
troll which superseded that Of the
Americans. The last American sup
erintendent gave up the struggle.
Finally the Woods Forbes investiga-
ton revealed the .deplorable condi-
lions. These were among the Sc
rious features to which General
Wood, on taking charge in 1921,
turned his attention. He increased
the staff and called for more nurses
and soon had 1000 lepers under
treatment. When the next year he
was reported about to return home
1900 lepers petitioned for his reten-
ton. Speaking Of this petition the
New York Times says: ut is one of
the most pathetic documents in the
history of government"
The Filipino politicians. in their
efforts to have Wood recalled urged
that money was being wasted on
these lepers, that native rule was
being interfered with, that "Culion
represents useless dissipation of
funds" They evidently preferred &c
have the spending of those funds in
some fashion better suited to their
fancy and they prevailed on the leg
islature to reduce the appropriation
and demanded that Culion be placed
under native control.
General Wood has asked for per-
mission to raise a fund of a million
dollars to be used in the care OF
these unfortunates. 1t has been
found by experience that much NAV
be done for them. Under proper
treatment and administration. OF
chaulmoogra oil IS percent of the
cases became stationary and some SO
recover as to be released on proba .
ton. 1t is a splendid undertaking
that General Wood sponsors.
