THEATER TO DEVELOP
 NATIVE DRAMATlSTS
 WELCOMES IN ROME

ROME, Mar. 26.-(AP) The open 1 ing in Rome this month of the Tea tro delfArte under the direction of Italy's famous dramatist, Luigi Pir- andello who is known to American audiences by "SiX Characters in Search of an Author" Henry w." and several other productions, is considered in theatrical circles here an event of considerable importance for the Italian drama in general, but of incalcuable consequence to the i theatrical life of the Italian capital. ] The announced plan of Signor Pir- andello to give Rome theatrical playhouse worthy of the best tradi- tions of the capital of the Caesars, in which native talent will be fos- tered and foreign works of quality welcomed, is heartily commended here in artistic circles, especially because of the noticeable absence at present of such institution.
 In fact, Rome is perhaps one of the few great centers of European culture where stage productivity has not kept pace with dramatic develop ment, and where the theater has not been stimulated by the post war wave of interest in the drama. While scores of theaters and many artistic and experimental companies are busy in Paris, Berlin, Prague, Bud apest, Bucharest, Vienna and Lon- don, the Italian capital has but an approximate ten playhouses, and of these only a few devote themselves to important native talent.
 The Romans have been fed inter- national fare. At one playhouse a Viennese light opera has had a long run and is still playing. At several other theaters translations of light French plays have held the boards, while at another famous French company has just closed an engage ment.
 The most active company is di- rected by Russian actress who has produced with varying success pieces by Wilde, Shaw, Chekoff, Pierre Louys, w. Somerset Vaughan and works by other foreigners.

The origin Of the apple wave now
sweeping over England and Scotland
is an interesting story. One of the
big orchardists Of the Northwest
with extensive marketing relations
in England ran across a copy Of
$50 Recipes for Apple Dishes''
published by the Union Pacific, and
was so impressed with its merit that
he sent it to his representatives in
London to inquire if the apple was
receiving the cordial consideration
there that it was in America The
answer was conspicuously lacking in
enthusiasm.
This booklet, however, set, the
wholesaler to thinking. "Why has
not some one in England had sense
enough to do this?" he inquired of
his associates. eff we can get
book like this into the homes Of
Great Britain we can multiply the
consumption of apples tremendous
ly.' He Immediately cabled his rep
resentative in the Northwest for
several thousand copies and in less
than forty-eight hours they were on
their way. On arrival in England
they were distributed primarily
among the wholesalers, but soon
reached the attention of the Fruit
Trades Federation. Needless to say
the entire supply vanished like the
traditional hot cakes.
Nearly million copies have thus
far been issued to meet the demand
on this side Of the Atlantic, and
negotiations are pending for another
issue of $4,000.

PEARS SAVED BY ORCHARD
HEATING

Sam Waggoner, representing the
Thompson Fruit Company of Yaki-
me, on last Friday bought two Anjou
pear crops, paying therefor $1OO per
ton. The crops purchased were those
OF John II. Bridges, who estimates his
total tonnage at fifty to sixty tons.
and p. G. Scott, who has between 20
and 25 tons.
The pears are to be delivered to
the Grandview Fruit Cold Storage
Co, and the contract provides that
the pears are to be delivered at that
price with picking boxes furnished.
Last year both men received the
same price for their pears, but had
much smaller tonnage. This year
both men heated their orchards and
saved their crops from damage by
frost.
Several pear sales have been re-
ported the past week ranging in
price from $50 to SOS a ton. Frank
McCannon is reported as having con-
tracted his Bartlett pears at SOS.
Apricots are bringing good price,
and while the crop is light in the
Grandview district, several growers
have contracted what. they have at
500 ton.

MORE PLATES ARE NEEDED

More 1925 automobile and truck
plates will be needed by the license
department to satisfy this years de-
mand of motor vehicle owners. The
number of privately owned machines
licensed this year will approach the
100000 mark, Director Of Licenses
c. R. Maybury predicted when 1884,
900 had been issued by July II, and
the demand this month was running
along at an unprecedented rate. Dur
ing the week of July GIL, 2615 IL
censes were issued as compared with
1898 in 1924, a gain Of 662 or 25
per cent. The years increase prior
to July l, was 10 per cent. The total
number Of licenses for all classes Of
motor vehicles now exceeds the num-
Der issued during all of 1924.
