TOSCAN|N|, P|QUED
BY fascist, QUITS.
RetireS as Conductor of La
Scala Opera Because
of Interference.

By Cable to The Star and New York World
CHICAGO, May S.-Toscanini has
retired as conductor at La Scala Opera
House in Milan because of consta mt
interference by Milan Fascists and
the insistence OF the local Fascist gov.
ernment upon dismissing members OF
the opera company on the charge
they are anti-Fascists and replacing
them with good Fascists but poor
artists.
Toscanini labored under this disad.
vantage in producing Puccini's post.
humous opera. "Turandot," recently,
and after the strain caused by politi.
cal interference with opera, he
gave up.
His retirement from La Scala seems
definite.
The Corriere Della Sero on May S
published a communique. apparently
at the request of the La Scala mana
gers, saying Toscaninb was taking a
rest owing to ill health. The same
communique denies the report that
Toscanini had left Milan for the
French Riviera.
His Health Very Good.
1t is learned Toscaninis health Is
very good and that his retirement
from La Scala was due to disagree.
ments between him and the manage
ment. La Scala, being dependent to
some extent upon the support of the
Milan municipality, which is con-
trolled by Fascist. has gradually lost
its artistic independence and become
the theater of action of Fascist feud.
The Fascist disliked Toscanini be.
cause they consider him Free Mason
and an anti-Eascist. Whatever the
cause, however. the fact is La Scala
managers recently dismissed several
professors Of the La Scala Orchestra
and members of the chorus and re.
placed them with substitutes recon-
mended by the local Fascist party.
Works Under Handicap.
On several occasions Toscanini was
compelled to rehearse an opera again
and again because he would discover
somebody in the orchestra or chorus
had been substituted. After the third
performance of Puccini's "Turandot, ,"
which was conducted by Toscanini, La
Scala managers announced "Falstaff"
would be the next performance and
Signor PanizZa. one of Toscanini's
substitutes, would conduct it,
This was the only hint in the press
of Toscanini's retirement from La
Scala. censorship having forbidden
all other news concerning Toscanini's
decision.
An episode which throws consider
able light on the Fascist war against
Toscanini is the following: Two years
ago. during a gala performance at La
Scala. groups of Fascist in the gal
lery clamored for the Fascist hymn
"Giovinezza." Toscanini answered by
causing the orchestra to play the ma.
tional anthem, Marcia Reale" When
this was over the Fascist clamored
more Obstinately for their hymn, but
Toscanini walked out without com.
plying.

HOST NOW HOLDERS
OF FRENCH MEDALS
Members of Legion of Honor
Would Make Army as Big
as Americas.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, May s. The holders of
French Legion or Honor medals, If
modified, would constitute an army
just about equivalent to the number
of men in Americas peace-time mill
tary establishment, it is shown by
figures just furnished by the gov
ernment.
On DecembeY. / 1925. there were
131, ,334 legionnaires on the role of the
grand chancellory. and more nave
been elevated since that date. There
are SO chief grand crosses" of the
order now living, including chiefs OF
state, eminent soldiers, both French
and foreign. Former presidents of
the republic and others are included.
The grand officers number 374. The
commanders alone form regiment
with a strength Of 1852, while there
are 7,745 officers of the Legion OF
Honor entitled to wear the little red
rosette. The chevaliers, or knights.
numbered no fewer than 11O,505 last
December.
Fees for possession of the legion 5
diploma have been doubled by re-
cent decree. 1t now costs so francs
for a chevalier to obtain his parch-
ment, 100 francs for an officer, 200 Tor
commander, 300 for grand com
mander and 500 for a grand cross.
only privates and non-commissioned
officers in the French army who have
won the chevalier's cross in service

For sixteen years, without whim-

DELIGHTFUL ROUTE FROM
PHOENIX TO FLAGSTAFF

To aid the prospective interstate
tourist the Phoenix Republican re-
quested the Automobile club of Ari-
zona to log different routes into the
wide open spaces that can be used by
the motoTist. Here is one:
Leaving Phoenix over the Van
covers the nine miles to Tempe. Nine
miles farther to Mesa, long known as
the metropolis of the south side sec
tion of the great Roosevelt irrigation
project.
Leaving Mesa the paved highway
traverses a rich, fertile, agricultural
region, where broad fields of alfalfa,
herds Of fine dairy cattle, orchards,
growing vegetables, large flocls of
poultry and other evidences of Nor
mon thrift are seen. Twenty-Five
miles east of Phoenix the pavement
ends. The seven miles to Apache
junction is fine graded and surfaced
road.
Taking the Apache Trails highway
at Apache Junction one soon covers
the four miles to Goldfields, the To-
cation of one of the richest gold mines
ever opened in Arizona Continuing
east over the wonderful scenic trail,
Canyon lake, so miles from Phoenix
Is soon reached Here one finds the
jaunty little Geronimo ready to trans
port load Of sightseers up that won
derful gorge known as Canyon lake,
IL miles of rocky grandeur. Then
Roosevelt dam, that has made the
present day agricultural development
of the Salt River valley possible. The
massive dam is II miles from Phoe-
nix. Crossing Salt river on the mas
sive masonary structure we roll along
the west side Of the beautiful Roose-
welt lake for several miles on the road
to Packard, one hundred miles out of
Phoenix. The road is now in the
Tonto national forest reserve, once the
scene Of bloody war between cattle
and sheep interests. Then comes
North Payson, 1872 miles from Phoe-
nix; then the beautiful natural bridge,
three miles west Of the main highway.
Here the traveller will find aecomoda-
tion and recreation opportunities that
will make several days stay pleasant.
Returning to the main highway the
few miles into Pine, 149 miles out Of
Phoenix, are soon covered. Past Long
Valley, III miles from Phoenix, the
diversion point for Hay lake, 13 miles
east and Stoneman lake five miles
west, is reached. This junction point
is 194 miles from Phoenix Fourteen.
miles onward and one is at Mormon
lake, a noted resort, the largest natu-
raj lake in Arizona, being some 25
miles farther north, 222 miles from
Phoenix.
Nine miles farther is Flagstaff, the
mecca of the summer vacationist
Flagstaff is a beautiful city. The ele-
vation is 5000 feet, which assures the
visitor of delightful weather condi-
tions during the vacation months.
Flagstaff is the county seat and
The Coconino sun., 1926-03-26

principal town in Coconino county,
which has the distinction Of being the
largest county in the United States.
The Automobile club officials state
that more drives to points of interest
Grand Canyon of Arizona, Painted
desert, Petrified forest, Lava fields,
Sunset mountain, Prehistoric ruins,
Cliff dwellings, Meteorite mountain,
Grand Falls of the Little Colorado,
Rainbow Natural Bridge, San Fran
cisco peaks, Park-lilse primeval
forests of virgin pines, Hopi and Ma
vaio Indian reservations ard many
other points Of great interest-start
from Flagstaff than from any other
point in Arizona. The summer yisi-
tor taking this route into the north
