VETERAN MUSICAL SEES
 SYMPHONIC JAZZ AS FAD

NEW YORK, Jan. 15. R)-Sym- phonic jazz, which now is fighting for foothold in the highest of Ameri- can musical circles, is nothing but a fad, without any symptoms of origi- nality, and is doomed to the oblivion that comes to all passing fancies.
 So believes L. E. Manoly, who once played under Richard Wagner, the great composer, and for forty-six consecutive years has been a mem Der of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra.
 Jazz symphony" he laughd. "Why jazz is just a rhythmical affair. Rhythm has always ben here. There is no originality about symphonic jazz-it is taken from other compo- sitions.
 Eff one is to compose one must have original ideas. This jazz fad now is just to give our American composers chance. But it will not last. If America is to produce a great composer, it's artists will have to get away from jazz.

MOTHER QUEEN MARIE NOTABLE
 IN MANY WAYS

BUCHAREST, Jan. IS. (P-T h ( World war shook many thrones, but it only served to strengthen that oi Queen Marie, for to her people she is known not as the Queen of Ru- mania, but as "the Mother of Ruma- nia"
 Rumanias greatest woman among her subjects is something much more than a symbol of sovereign power; she is the fountain head of all char ity, sympathy and help. Every act of benevolence, every movement for the betterment of the common lot every inspiration for nobler and higher life, seems to center in Queen Marie, an English-Russian woman whom Fate and Fortune placed at the head of Latin race
 Before the war her realm embrac- ed less than seven million people Today she rules over seventeen mil lion souls, but the word rules" is hardly applicable to Quen Marie's occupancy. She is one of the most democratic and indulgent of reigning queens, just how democratic being shown in this manner:
 The Associated Press correspond ent sought an interview. Two min- utes after he had presented his card at the Royal Palace, he was ushered into a small drawing room, where he was informed that Her Majesty is dressing for dinner, but she will be glad to receive you.'
 Scarcely had the words been spok- en when Queen Marie, attired sim ply in silk dressing gown and san- dals, with her long golden hair flow ing loosely over her shoulders, step ped forward.

HORSEMEAT BECOMES FRENCH
 LUXURY WITH RISING PRICES

PARIS, Jan. 15 (P)-Horsemeat formerly "the poor mans beefsteak, has become French luxury. Scar city of butcherable animals is given as the cause of it's enormous in crease in price.
 Besides the gradual disappearance of horses lon the hooff" available for the markets, a tax of one franc twenty-five centimes per pound plac- ed on the meat was said to have in- fluenced higher prices.
 Horsemeat is recommended by phy- sicians for persons suffering from tuberculosis and all diseases of anaemia of the blood. The sanatori- ums of Southern France have been severely hit by the rise in price.

guist, writer and a ,poetess. She speaks French, German, Rumanian Russian, Italian, Spanish and per- feet English She has written nc less than ten books on history, poet ry, philosophy, fiction and the fine arts. She also has achieved marked success in painting, embroidery, de- signing and furniture making.
 Queen Marie has given the world two other Queens in the persons oi her daughters, and is prepared to of- fer third. They are Queen Marie of -Slavia, wife of King Alexan- der, and Queen Elizabeth of Greece who, however. lost her crown in the revolution of 1924, which threw her young husband, George, off the throne. The third prospective Queen is Marie's beautiful sixteen-year-old daughter, Ileana.
 The Rumaman Queen also is pre- pared to offer in marriage as future King" her youngest son, Prince Nicholas, who is graduate of OK ford University and who is just past 22. Her eldest son, Prince Carol, al- ready has married Princess Helen of Greece, who, if the Rumanian dy- nasty lasts, will doubtless one day succeed King Ferdinand and the Queen herself.
 Thus this democratic and prolific Maker of Kings and Queens" has earned the soubriquet of the Moth er-in-Law of Europe"
 Queen Marie loves the demonstra- tive homage of crowds, the compli- ments of rulers and statesmen, the admiration of people of other lands who have met her or know of her works. But she is at heart a demo- crat without ostentation or pretense.

appearing in this unconventional and 'unqueenly' way sne said smilingly to the astonished correspondent, "but I'm getting ready for dinner, and as I know you called. specially to see me about my views for the American peo- pie, did not want to send you away without few minutes friendly chat !"
 While King Ferdinand is the titular head of the Royal House of Ruma- mia, Americans and others who have been to Rumania know that Marie, by reason of her vital, dominant, dy- mamie personality and force of char acter, transcends the King, who is of a shy, dihfident, negative tempera- ment. In relation to the, Queen, he is not the ruler, but the ruled. Tn this respect Queen Marie inherits some of the positive, self-reliant do- minating qualities of her great an- cestor, Queen Victoria.
 '"The. King, poor man." the Queen told the correspondent, lis a bashful, timid soul, and I've got always to push him into the limelight."
 The talents, brilliancy and versa tility of Queen Marie equally make her one of the most notable world figures. One of four daughters of Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, and of Grand Duchess Marie Alexan- drovna, only daughter of Czar Alex ander II of Russia, she was endow ed with natural beauty, charm and grace. Although now past fifty years of age, she still is considered the most beautiful Queen in the world American women are captivated by her soft, youthful, regular features, and her unaffected, winning manner She is at once womanly Queen and a queenly woman. Many of her ad- mirers have often said that her pc culiar attributes of intellect, beauty, energy and popularly entitle her to be Queen of England; that her talent is wasted on Balkan country.
 Queen Marie not only possesses all the natural endowments which Amer jeans usually associate with a Queen, but she is remarkably gifted as a lin

LODGE GIVES SOME NEW IDEAS ON FUNcTIONING OF THE BRAIN

LONDON, Jan. 15. (P)-New ideas about the functioning of the brain were set forth here by Sir Oliver Lodge, the noted scientist, who con- tended that the popular theory that the brain feels is entirely incorrect.
 ''The brain does not see or hear or feel, nor does it plan or hope or love- said Sir Oliver in a lecture.
 These things belong to a different region, some link between mind and matter, which perhaps we have not yet begun to formulate.

BERLIN, Aug. 14.-Berlin's
dog days find married couples in
dulging in a new tangled substi-
tute for the cross word puzzle.
This is probing into the mysteries
of the figures 1862.
Some one discovered that these
figures invariable come from add
ing the following: the year of
ones birth, ones age, the year of
marriage and the number of years
married.
The puzzle which is bewildering
most people, rests on the obvious
fact that 1852 equals twice 1926
and that the year of birth, plus
present age always equals 1926,
as does the year of marriage plus
the number of years of the dura-
ton of the marriage. -

impossible to look for the other end
of the cable and to find its defective
spot. It might have taken months,
and every day cost $1,000. SO the old
cable was welded into one with the
new cable and was sent down once
more to the bottom of the sea. II was
a wild, storming and rainy night. Like
black serpent the cable rolled over
board. Tine engineers held close
watch in front of the scale of the
dynamometer, which showed the fig
ures 30. 40, SO, 60, 70. Each figure
meant a hundredweight. Usually the
free pending end of the cable weighs
two or three tons before touching the
surface of the water OF course, the
more water it displaces, the deeper it
gets, the lighter the cable weighs on
board.
Anxious Moments.
But now suddenly the dynamometer
went up considerably so, go 100

ments it wavered between 100 and 40
The cable would have to tear The
pending piece of the cable reached the
weight of seven tons-that is, it was
above the limit the steamer could
stand. And just then4there were great
depths in the sea indicated by our
map. If the cable touched no ground
for many more miles it would have to
tear and disappear in an endless

would make it impossible for us to find
it again
The. whole crew was alarmed The
breaks required the greatest attention
now The pulling power of the cable
had become so great that it threatened
to tear out all the rest of the cable
which was rolled up in the store
room.
One moment of negligence and hun
dreds of miles of cable would shoot
without any resistance down into the
ocean, while destroying everything in
their course.
The tragedy of the first cable ship,
of the Great Western, revived terribly
in our memory. Then, thank
goodness, the dynamometer showed
reaction. But once more it went up
dangerously and threatening.
For twenty-four hours the Atlantic
cable was in constant peril. Then the
ground of the sea became regular and
the laying of the cable went on with
out disturbance. The new end of the
cable was fastened at Fayal few
days later.
