MARY GARDEN IN
 'JUNTH' SCORES
Critics Find Her at Her Best in New Role

Chicago, Jan. 2S.-GP)- Mary Garden has found another great role in the name part of Judith" Chi cago critics said after the American premiere of the opera by the French-Swiss musical revolution ist Arthur Honegger.
 The work, presented last night by the Chicago Civic Opera company, is based on the ancient Jewish tale from the Apocryphal Book of Judith, with music described "a point beyond anything the modern composer has attempted"
 Miss Garden acte, ,... role with superb authority and sang with more vocal eloquence than she has dis played this season. said Glenn Bill lard Gum in the Herald and Ex- aminer. For the music exploited for the most part that exquisite low CT range of her voice, which is of such surpassing loveliness and such unrivalled expressivcness.'
 Edward Moore, in the Tribune, likewise found the part gave Miss Garden an opportunity for some of her best acting. For almost the first time this season." he said, she re- turned to her former dramatic ,method, that of poised. throbbing immobility, suddenly exploding into action

MOON AND SATURN
Two Stellar Performers Today arc
 Stunning the Camera

Williams Bay, Wis, Jan. 2S.-CP The moon and Saturn, stunning the inquisitive movie camera, sulk- ed behind the scenes today and evaded an attempt to make movie stars of them.
 For hours battery of cameras peered upward before the dawn had spread too much light but low hanging clouds completely hid the occultation of the planet by the moon, and not crank turned. The barometer began falling last night and by 5:57 a. m. when the moon was due to begin passing be- tween the earth and Saturn, even the powerful telescopes in Yerkes ob- servatory were unable to catch a glimpse of the occultation. Condi- tions were unimproved an hour and q quarter later when scientists had hoped to film Saturn again showing on the other side of the Lunar mass.

Notable in the reunions In Paris, consequent upon
the holding Of the annual meeting Of the American
Legion In that city, was the fact that the great military
leaders In the war were foremost and most urgent in
speaking Of the need to work for universal and lasting
peace. The speeches Of Marshal Foch. Of General
Pershins, Of Marshal Joffre and other Officers were rs
filled with the demand that war be avoided 60 could
be those delivered at q congress Of pacificsts. Nor was
this insincere or hypocritical- As q rule, the men who

The World and All
MUSIC FOR EVERYBODY
By Charles p. Driscoll

st. Louis has just elised the ninth season Of mu-
not. It has its Forest Park, which is hard to match.
But best Of all, il has the intelligence and the enter
prise to use its park property wisely.
st. Louis has just closed the ninth seasin Of mu-
nieipal opera. More than half a million persons at
tended. The opera association made a profit Of 1875
900.
This profit must be put back into the theater plant,
under rules adopted years ago, when open-air opera
at low prices was an experiment in st. Louis.
Many cities that / know have talked about open
air municipal musical performances. st. Louis has
them.
As one consequence Of nine seasons Of high-erade
musical entertainment in its municipal outdoor theater
In Forest Park, St. Louis has a population with e
musical ear. Nearly everybody in St. Louis has COM
pletely overcome that peculiar self-consciousness In
the presence Of the word opera" which one finds in
SO many American cities.
In the ST. Louis open-air theater they sometimes
have grand opera, with great stars from abroad sing
ing the leading roles. But this is the dessert. For
regular fare they have light opera in English, sung
chiefly by talent developed in st. Louis.
OF course, when a town interests itself in music
and supports regular performances Of musical enter
tainment, talent blossoms by the wayside. Thousands
Of people have latent musical talent that is never dis
covered. In St. Louis the existence of low-priced must
cal entertainment Of high quality brings out the towns
musical talent. So St. Louis has plenty Of good singers
Of her own.
Many Of the seats in the St. Louis open-air theater
are free. Good seats may be had at any performance
for a quarter, a half dollar, or a dollar.
Out Of such admission charges, the enterprise sup
ports itself and continues to improve its plant.
Here's an important point. The st. Louis musical
venture started out in a very modest way. For its
first performances it had the raw turf for stage flood,
and the bare hillside for seats.
That's the way to start such an enterprise. Many
cities could do the same thing that st. Louis has done.
But they must be willing 70 start modestly, with al
most no capital. That's the only way to give native
art and artistic appreciation appreciation a chance.

Washington Letter

A tariff may be levied as q
means Of retaliating up foreign gov
ernments, in which case 1t
becomes an instrument Of warfare
The New International Encyclopedia.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-When we
talk, as we're doing now, about the
prospects Of a tariff war" between
America and France, we're not re-
ferring to war" in q figurative
sense.
We mean the real thing-so recog-
nized by all the best authorities.
In fact, it's begun already. The
French have fired on US.
II a Gallo plane had dropped a
bomb into the midst Of an American
city it would have been no more mt
orally an act Of war than Frances
new tariff regulations amount to.
Discriminatory tariff regulations
and a bomb are two different things,
to be sure; but q machine gun isn't
g bayon and poison gas isn't q Big
Bertha. Yet they're all instruments
of warfare.
Discriminatory" Don't miss that
word.
Frances new tariff regulations are
designed to keep out various lines of
goods which we produce, but the
French don't; which, therefore,
they've been buying from US on a
large scale; but which they can get
from Germany and England, il they
have to-not quite so good, perhaps,
but good enough to get along on.
Now, il the French government
had socked a tremendous impost on
TO all these goods-American, Eng
lish and German alike-a tax so stiff
that the French couldn't stand it and
had TO do without-it would have
been nothing to Us, or the English
of Germans, to kick about. We might
have considered il foolish; but il
wouldn't have been unfair to any
body-except possibly the French
people, and that would have been
their lookout.
What the French government did,
however, was to soak American
goods-not English or German-kill-
ing our trade stone dead, in favor Of
the others.
Frances intention to take a DELHI
crate jab at the United States was
unmistakable.
II isn't q situation for mobilizine
the army and putting the navy on a
war footing. but it certainly is q
case for our commercial strategists
TO get busy on.
They're doing 1t.
Here's a war for experts like Sec
rotary Mellon and Hoover to exer-

else their genius on-and for old
tariff veterans like Senator Smoot
and Chairman Marvin Of the tariff
eommission-and President Coolidge,
himself, knows a thing or two
about the protection principle.
OF course the question arises.
What's the enemy's objective?
The best guess seems TO be that
it's war debt cancellation.
This Is enough TO give Us pause.
France isn't the only country that
owes US war debts. Suppose the rest
Of the outfit decide to join her
against rs. It won't be an alliance
TO be sneezed IL.
We have W strong defeat
est" element right here at home, too.
Our international bankers have been
preaching war debt cancellation this
long time.
II may be we've got q dickens Of
a campaign ahead Of US.

while the American press has been almost unani.
nous in accleiming President Coolidge's selec.
tion Of Dwight W.. Morrow, New York finaneier, to
represent this country as its ambassador in Mexico
City, the Mexican press has shown no symptoms of en-
thusiasn. On the contrary their attitude is one OF
~aloofness, and they are frankly stating that while Mr.
Morrow is representative of the group which has been
the basic cause Of friction between the two republics
he may prove the type Of ambassador who can smooth
out the differences and bring the two peoples to q bet
Ter understanding.
Excelsior Of Mexico City believes that President
Coolidge should have appointed a man who has been
In contact with the Mexican people and who would prove
at least sympathetic in their efforts to solve their ma
tional problems.
Commenting on the fact that the new ambassador
Is not familiar with Mexico, Excelsior states that ~Mr
Morrow should not arrive here, as have SO many am
bassadors and ministers Of the United States in Latin
American countries, with the idea that he is a pro-
consul TO a barbarous colony. II he forgets such ideas,
nobody in Mexico will remember that he is q member
Of the financial circle which weaves the destinies of
many nations"
Fl Universal, which is inclined to radical ideas,
takes the view that II Mr. Morrow is representing the
people Of the United States he will prove q valuable
asset to both nations. Bet if he is representing the
financial group with shicL he is connected, he can
max slsttle or no progress in bringing about a better
understanding between the two republics.
@Whst is important to Mexico is that the new en-
yoy shall at least know how to tone down the exigent
ego.ism Of the strongest and best organized capitalism
In the world" FL Universal states. at must be ad-
mitted that under the prevailing conditions of society,
OF eapitalistic indignation, the economic interests oe-
cupy first place In the relations between governments.
Who, then, are better fitted to manage them than the
great arbiters Of finance? Wherefore it may be de-
Quoted that it is preferable that one of them should
systematically represent Washington in Mexico instead
Of sending rs some secondary parsonage"
The writer then goes on to assert that the United
States viii doubtless always choose q person who will
act IS lawyer Of the financial interests Of the United
States plutocracy, why should objection be raised 10
Mr.. Morrow. adding that maybe it will be much more
convenient to treat direct with the nucleus which in
fluences the international policy Of Mexico's n~eighbox-
ing republic by one Of its real principals.
American newspapers which are commencing the
choice Of Coolidge assert that Morrow will prove the
most popular envoy the United States has ever had in
the southern republic. he not only has . thorough un-
derstanding Of the financial and bu4ness problems Of
Mexico. but also Is familiar with a phases Of the
American situation as relating to pat country. He
