Stan would call her back, or come

She walked on toward the center
of town with her head held high.
Hot tears stung her eyeballs. But
she blinked them away.
The sun had set. And the chill Of
early evening crept into the still air.
Gloria went into a drug store and
bought a theatrical magazine. She
read it, sitting on a high stool, as
she slowly slipped a chocolate matted
milk.
On the cover was a picture of Kit

had become a Broadway chorus girl.
Gloria knew Kit Cameron. She
and Kit had gone to business college
together four years ago.

stepped out into the darkness. She
walked home, trying hard not to

When she got home, Mrs. O'Hara

Radio and the Theater.

Certain theatrical people are report
ed to be disturbed by recent events in
radio. About three weeks ago one of
the phonograph and phonograph rec
ord making companies put "on the
air" a concert by several of their "re-
cording artists" among them being
Florence Easton and Mario Chamlee
of the Metropolitan Opera. The affair
was such a success that the recording
company will radio a weekly concert.
Thursday night another, and perhaps
the largest of the phonograph and rec
ord companies, put on a concert by
two singers Of renown, John McCor-
mack and Lucrezia Bori. The concert
was radioed by so many stations that
it was receivable by every crystal set
owner in the Eastern half Of the
United States, and, Of course, by all
tube-set owners. 1t is estimated that
six or eight million people heard the
singers Without doubt it was the
largest concert audience the world has
known.
The transmission of this concert
caused one of the important theatrical
producers to say: Radio constitutes
the greatest menace that the theater
has ever faced" The theater of the
spoken drama faces a menace" in
the moving picture. The moving pic
ture is reasonable in price, and pic
lures and titles often tell a great
dramatic story in a dramatic way.

users Of radio will multiply, and more
and more will they expect nearly per-
fection in their sets. Radio is to be-
come one of the great educational
agencies. Already it is giving short
lecture courses to more people than
half dozen big universities can reach
in the traditional way. Already plays
are sent through the air. One of the
radio theater companies, the General
Electric Players, at Schenectady, per-
forms regularly, and when one of the
local broadcasting stations relays
play the radio audience is large.
The results are good Every word
spoken by the actors is heard, and the
plot and situations are easily followed.
1t is not possible that radio and mo-
ton pictures will destroy the the
ater," but it will probably reduce the
number of theaters and actors. The
spoken plays will be those that are
really worthy paying a fair price to
see, and the actors will be those who
have sufficient understanding of the
dramatic art to speak their lines so
that people will not have to guess at
what they are talking about. Motion
picture and radio competition will be
good for dramatic art and for actors

Diplomacy as a Career.

The death of Edward Bell, Ameri-
can charge d'affaires at Peking. has
evoked widespread expressions of
tribute. They are well deserved. Mr.
Bells career gave peculiar proof of
the value of continuous and compre-
hensfve experience in the Nationa' s
professional diplomatic corps. After
serving in Egypt, in Persia and in
Cuba, Mr.. Bell was a secretary dur
ing six successive years. including the
whole war period. in that most inten-
sive training field of diplomacy, the
embassy at London. In Toxic he was
counselor, and charge as well, be-
fore undertaking the same posts at
Peking. The concentration and con-
tinuity of his work in the Far East,
combined with his fine native ability,
made it possible for him to take
over the full responsibility of these
missions during the Ambassador
absence, and to discharge that re-
sponsibility with entire excellence and
apIomb.
That is the type of competence
which this Nations foreign service
most urgently requires Since the
chiefs of American missions abroad
come and go with each change of the
administration at home, it is vital
that at each embassy and legation
there should be members of the per-
manent diplomatic corps deeply
versed in the affairs and practice of
the mission concerned, and able to
serve the chief with expert advice
at every critical turn. More young
men in the American foreign service
should be given the advantage of
specialized training which Edward
Bell had. Thanks to the new law
governing the diplomatic corps, more
young men are likely to benefit by
just such an opportunity. The youth
of today, who decides to devote him
self to the Nations foreign service,
has at least the assurance that his
country will pay him a living wage
for his work as secretary, and that
his tenure will be permanent. He
may reasonably expect that the De-
partment of State will so plan his
assignments as to provide him not a
scattered and unrelated experience,
but an assured field of special com
petence, permitting him to attain, if
his character and capacity are equal
to the attainment, place of dis
tinguished Importance in the diplo-
matte world.-Boston Transcript.

explained to the botanical section of
the associations convention that a
body Of botanists named TO choose a
site for an arboretum had favored
the Mount Hamilton tract and that
the matter had been presented to
Congress in 1920. Bills for the Gre
alton of the arboretum failed at the
last session of Congress. The resolu-
ton has been approved by the asso-
citation and sets forth that the pro-
posed arboretum will be of great
value to botanical science, to economic
interests and to the general public
and also sets forth the reasons why
the arboretum would be of value. The
association says that washington is
ideally located for a national ar
boretum; in a moderate climate,
where an unusually large number of
Northern and Southern plants may be
grown together
The argument of the scientists will
probably have weight with Congress.
The scientists have hit upon the
Mount Hamilton tract because of its
size and its variety of soil and sit
uations for a tree plantation. 1t will
also adjoin the Eastern Branch Park
when it is created and will be part
of Il large park system. Another rea-
son is that only small section of this
land has been built on, and the prop
erty may be bought at low cost.

Motors by the Million.

The automobile industry is now cele-
brating its silver jubilee. In 1924,
quarter of 4 century from the begin
ming of motor car use in this country,
there We're registered in the United
States 17,700,179 motor cars, which
was an increase of 100000 cars, or
1928 per cent, over the total number
registered during 1923.
Such a development means that
traffic control presents the most seri-
Gus problem that is faced by the
municipal and State authorities. 1t
means that in a very few years the
mere matter of moving traffic will be
one of the greatest difficulty. In eight
and q half years at this rate the num-
Der of cars in the United States will
have doubled.
One of the most difficult aspects of
this question is that Of the parking
and storage Of cars. In the cities car
storage has become SO grave a prob
lem that motor manufacturers are
fearing the loss of considerable mar
net IOI l!dCIIllltSs 1cl lHCElOldl tOIl-
tinues to mount. In cities where
large percentage of the people live in
apartments individual garages cannot
be had for perhaps as many as half Of
the motor cars in use. In Washing
ton this condition prevails to some ex-
tent, and many of the motor cars are
left at night in the streets at the
mercy Of the elements and in danger
of being stolen.
In New York parking is absolutely
prohibited during the business hours.
This initiates against the value of
motor cars for individual transport.
Washington has no such rule. but i'm
poses certain time limits, which are
not effective.
1t is impossible to foresee the future
in respect to utility of such wide
use and such rapid increase. Present
efforts to cure the traffic evils in
Washington may result in effective
laws and means of enforcement. But
in the framing of such laws and the
provision Of such means thought must
be had for the high rate Of increase in
motor use.
This silver jubilee year Of the motor
industry has its causes of question as
well as qualification.

A Plea for Chlorine
Gas Treatment
To the Editor of The Star;

To the Editor of The Star;
I noticed in a recent Star q state
ment from one of the scientists, now
holding their convention, that the gas
treatment had little or no real quail
tiles for the cure of colds. I would
not, of course, dispute such a distin-
guished authority, but here are the
facts in my own case:
Last May 1 had a cold which had
become really serious. My cough was
so bad that I could not sleep. Night
after night 1 coughed the entire night.
l was treated by a first-class special
ist, but my throat continued so in
famed from constant coughing that
the treatment did not seem to do any
good. My specialist doctor suggested
that I try the gas treatment. 1 took
three treatments and the effect upon
me was wonderful. My cold entirely
disappeared, and my throat was so
much improved upon the elimination
of the cold that l was in a compare
lively short time relieved from my
throat trouble. / did not see my ply
sician any more, but used the sprays
he had given me for my throat, which
seemed to become effective after the
cold was removed During the last
month / have taken the gas treat
ment for another cold, and it did me
lots of good, though, unfortunately,
developed a new cold afterward, ow-
ing to the frequent changes in the
weather, and have not been able to
take the gas treatment again. There
is no doubt that the gas certainly
was wondsyfui In my cold.

Tammany Facing Another Fight.

Tammany Hall is to face another
fight next Fall in its attempt to elect
the mayor of the city. Tammany has
fought many a battle in mayoralty
campaigns and only occasionally lost,
through the fusion Of opposing polit-
ical elements in the greater city. But
the defeats have been temporary; a
mere frost-biting of the tops, with the
roots unharmed and firmly imbedded
in the political soil. Proposed anti
Tammany plans contemplate going
after the roots.
Charles d. Filles, Republican ma
tional committeeman for New York,
is the proponent of a plan which con-
templates attacking Tammany, not
alone by fusion methods, but, as sug-
gested by Mr.. Hilles, by an Infusion -
He says the Republican party in New
York should cultivate the body of
high-minded citizens, not necessarily
affiliated with it nationally, but anx-
ious for good municipal government
Mr.. Hilles deprecated the kind Of fu-
sion made up in part of a number
of mushroom organizations, some of
which are under the aegis of Tam.
many Hall, set up in other cases for
the sole purpose of getting office for
some of their members"
Mr.. Hilles advises that the Repub-
icans should organize Immediately
and begin a campaign of education
to impress upon the people the "in-
efficiency and dishonesty so charac-
teristic of Tammany's record and to
keep before the public the hypocrisy,
waste and stupidity Of the Hylan ad-
ministration."
He points out that this cannot be
done in a day, nor can it be done
effectively in the heat. of the cam
paign. He counsels the nomination of
a ticket of such caliber as will make
a general appeal, not alone to bust
ness interests, which regard efficiency
and economy as of paramount impor-
tance, but also to those citizens. who
desire above all things an admins
tration pledged to devote attention to
the humanities and to the making of
the life Of the average city dweller
healthier, safer and happier. Mr..
Hilles comedies the magnitude of the
task ahead. He Hkens Tammany to
a great army, with trained officers and
jealous enlisted men subject to daily
training in discipline.
If Mr.. Hilles can raise an opposing
army betimes, he and his forces may
render the greater city a vast service
and also put crimp into an organi-
zation charged with having a baleful
influence in national politics.

Editors View With Suspicion
Mussolini's Proposed Election

old constitutional method of voting
to coax the minority parties if not
into cooperation at least into partic-
ipation." The proposed new bill. in
the opinion of the Pittsburgh Ga
zette-Times, would apparently give
the people more freedom in choosing
their Legislators. But it is believed
that in case they misuse their free
dom to the disadvantage of Fascis-
mos position in absolute control of
the government, Mussolini will over
rule the decision"
This referendum" declares the
Louisville Courier-Journal, may ap-
peal to the public and increase Mus
solinfs popularity. 1t may mean the
end of Mussolini. Nevertheless, its
dramatic suddenness was typical of
the man and perhaps the only remedy
for the parliamentary tangle in which
Italy has found itself following the
growing opposition to Mussolini and
his followers" The evident aim OF
Mussolini, thinks the Muskegon
Chronicle, "is gradually to re-estab-
lish the reign. Of law and order that
he has had to shatter as he advanced
TO power, and the difficulty that even
a man of his dynamic force finds
in undoing a thing that he once con-
jUred, only illustrates again what a
demon is lawlessness when once 1t is
loosed."

"1t was but natural" declares the
Waterloo Tribune, that rulers-dic-

said to have murdered one deputy
who became unruly. This deputy had

q clamors now for an end to the die
tatorship and return to representa-
tive leadership, and so strong is this
demand and SO broken is the Musso-
lini party that the dictator himself
is for return to rule of the people, "
The San Antonio Express, however,
believes "Mussolini obviously con-
siders that the Fascist organization
could vanquish it's foes in a general
election or he would not have intro
duced a bill radically modifying the
election law
In the opinion of the Portland
(Maine) Express: "Mussolini has been
Italy's savior" 1t declares: He
saved it from topping over into the
maelstrom of bolshevism. He sub
stituted a strong government for one
that was weak and futile"
