THOROUGH ORGANIZATION
ADVOCATED BY LOWDEN
TO SAVE AGRICULTURE

Continued from First Page)
surplus production emergencies from
which agriculture suffers. A surplus
production of staple farm products is
inevitable and necessary" but the
farmer should not suffer for it, Mr.
Lowden maintained.
Collective marketing is progress
ing he said. and predicted it would
some day cover the entire field"
An absolute essential of cooperative
marketing organization, he pointed
out. is equalization among all pro-
ducers of the particular product of
the cost of handling the surplus. If
some producers not members of the
cooperation should benefit without
sharing the cost, the system would
fail. he said. because it would be
difficult to maintain the morale" of
the cooperative.
Explains Proposed Plan.
Mr. Lowden said the proposed Fed
eral Farm Board would be empowered
to inquire whether a surplus existed TO
depress prices of a product and
whether the producers of that product
were fairly represented in a co-opera-
tive organization If these questions
were answerable affirmatively, he eX-
planned, the cooperative could then be
authorized to take control Of the sur
plus. The only Government aid re-
quired would be distribution by the
Government of the cost of handling
the surplus among all the producers
of the product.
The cooperative. Mr.. Lowden con.
tinued, would not fix the price, but
like every other industry. would study
all the conditions affecting the particu
lar commodity and from time to time
decide upon a price which conditions
would seem to warrant
The speaker denied there was any
thing Revolutionary" in the co-opera-
tive marketing idea.
"Of course the proposal is radical in
a sense because it goes to the root of
the matter" he said. THAT is what
the word radical means. But was
not the interstate commerce law
thought radical when it was first pro-
posed?" He added that the Federal
reserve act was radical in exactly
the same sense that this proposed
farm rlief legislation is radical"

A Theatrical Exhibition
With Significance for Opera

Supplementing these stage models
and sketches were historical costumes
and portraits. puppets of every kind
and description, original and copies
of original manuscripts of playa. -
frst programs, and. announced tf
come. everything in the way of moo
els. sketches, literature and even spe-
cial performances that will illustrate
the technic, the organization. and even
the present and future possibilities OF
the theater in its relation to the film
and radio. 1t is claimed that more
than 500 German theaters. besides
theaters in Switzerland and the Ia
nous Burg Theater" in Vienna, have
contributed material for all this.
Unusual were Rabauds setting
to Synge's "Riders to the Sea- and
Rayels last opera, 'L'Enfant ct les
Sortileges." with text by Colette. The
former, outside of Synges text. was
remarkable only for what Herr
Bruggmann did with the singers in It;
for what he did was to make actors OF
them. There were no meaningless ges-
lures, no conventional operate atti-
tudes. but acting so gripping in its
simplicity and appeal that at the close

| Rabauds music is of the theater va
riety. with a recurrent galloping mo-
| tit to suggest the theme, and storms in
! the orchestra to dramatic the
weather. The only real music in II
was an old Irish folk tune. Ravel's
opera is enchanting, light though 1t
is, and it's delicious absurdity was un-
doubtedly crystallized by Herr Brugg-
mann's delightful settings, and, again,
| fine directing. The story centers
about a little boy who was bad and
| wouldn't do his lessons. He throws
his supper on the floor, tears his
book, pulls down the curtains, breaks
the clock and leases the cat, until,
finally, furniture and animals rebel,
and take 1t upon themselves TO pun
ish him. The first two are hugely
magnified, so that he seems a very
little boy, indeed. Lack Of space pre-
vents any detailed description o. this
amusing and moral tale-for it aas a
moral. as all such tales must have
or of the ironic twist Of the exquisite
score provided by Ravel. 1t Is only
when one finds such a combination OF
story and music made to fit the naeds
Of the theater as Herr Bruggmann
has done that one realizes how much
of the illusion of opera depends upon
the stage director. Which brings US
back to the exhibition at Magdeburg.

BY HENRIETTA STRAUs.

BERLIN, May, 1927.
Speeches and band playing, enliv.
ened by alternating showers of rain
and snow, with tantalizing promises
by a brilliant sun, marked the formal
opening here yesterday of the German
Theater exhibition. A large gathering,
armed with umbrellas, withstood
bravely these varied attacks by Die
Drei Eisheilige, or Three Ice Holes,
as the deities of May IL, II and IL
are called, who have certainly been
usurping more days than are right
fully theirs. Once it's duty done. how
ever, the crowd made a noticeable
rush en- nasse not for the exhibition
buildings, but for the huge restau-
rant that covers a large part of the
exhibition grounds.
AS for the exhibition itself, like all
such, 1t was not quite ready, but, un.
like others Of its kind, it was near
| enough the desired goal to give a
fairly complete idea of the purpose
behind it. This purpose seemed to be
to give an exhaustive representation
Of the development OF the German
Theeter from it's beginning in the
Middle Ages to the present day. Every
type of stage in every era and IN
| avery section of Germany was to be

through the original setting; every
phase Of the theater, from the spoken
and lyric drama of living actors to
that OF rnarionettes. There was the
altar-stage Of the medieval mystical
play, with it's stained-glass back
ground; the crude platform, with
wooden table and chairs, of the folk
"theaters" and of the "theaters Of the
professions which followed, for
which last the cobbler-poet, Hans
Sachs Of "Meistersinger" fame, wrote

stage and curtained backdrop of the
so-called "amorous theater" of the
Renaissance, and its successor Of the
''Baroque period" with its elaborate
scenery. Coming, again, for instance,
to the original eighteenth century set.

CLELIA FIORAVANTI was pre-.
scented Sunday afternoon in a
farewell recital of French, Spanish,
Italian and English songs to an en-
thusiastic audience by her teacher
Katherine Head, at her studio at
1710 I street. Miss Fiorvanti leaves
shortly for New York, where she will
perfect her operate roles with the
famous coach Rosatti. at the sugges-
ton of Gigli, the Metropolitan tenor.
The dramatic quality of Miss Flora
vantis art is direct. Her reading of
Respighi's "Nibbie" showed subtleties
in Interpretation and was delivered
with simplicity and richness of tone.
In a delightful Italian folk song and
in the Spanish song "Clavelitos'' she
presented vivacity and charm.
Elsa Raner, violinist. gave a we'll
chosen group. and the accompani-
ments for both were played by Miss
Head.
Among the other numbers of the
program were: Commas tn lie pays
