William M. Butler, chairman of
the Republican national committee, is
securing the West, building up the
party fences for next year. He is ex-
pected to return to Washington
within a few weeks, bringing with
him the information which he has
picked up during his conferences with
party leaders throughout the Middle
West and the West. Incidentally, Mr..
Buffers own political career may be
affected by what he learns. 1t has
been generally supposed that Mr..
Butler will be a candidate for the
Senate next year in Massachusetts
against Senator David l. Walsh,
provided President Coolidge is the
nominee of the party. He has author
ized no announcement, however, that
he will be a candidate, with or
without the President at the head of
the ticket.
With the nomination of Gov. Al
Smith of New York by the Democrats
for President, the effect of such a
nomination on the chances of Senator
Walsh to be reelected next year is
being considered. In some quarters
it is held that with Smith at the head
of the ticket, Senator Walsh would
benefit in Massachusetts, just as Gov.
Smith would benefit by the candidacy
of Senator Walsh in that State, where
the Senator is extremely popular.
Both Smith and Walsh are Catholics,
however, and there are some obser-
vers in Massachusetts who believe
that Smiths name on the ticket
would be signal for an outpouring
of opposition which would not only
defeat Smith, but would carry Walsh
down too

0F all the arts the theatre is perhaps
the most sensitive to social trans
formations; the art which more clear
ly than any other reflects the collec-
tive temper of an age. 1t is not sur
prising therefore to find that the Rus
sian Theatre, seeking to express the
radical, change in the collective life
of the entire country, should have
surpassed all other theatres of the
world in its daring experiments and
unprecedented departures from ac-
cepted practices. The Russian Theatre
is no longer satisfied to reflect pas
sively the petty tragedies of passing
and past generations; it wants to par
ticipate actively in the creating of a
new social life and in the moulding
of new social personality.
IT need hardly be added that just as
the forces of social rebellion are not
the exclusive privilege of Russia alone,
neither are the theatrical innovations
its exclusive property. In various de-
grees the revolutionary theatre has
become fact in most European coun-
tries, and is gradually becoming a
fact even in the United States.
In this new orientation the modern
artist has beer Of capital Importance.
SO much so, indeed. that he has out
stripped all other factors in the the
atre-text, actor, music, etc. The
function of the modern artist in the
new theatre is in brief to bare the
essential character of the play, to
clarity the meaning of the text, to set
in relief the movement of the actor,
to create an atmosphere in harmony
with each play. For the sake of brew
ty and clarity one may consider the
work of the new artist in the theatre
(artists, not stage hands), from three
aspects:
Pictorial. Never before have so
many excellent artists given their ser
vices to the stage. These artists are
not merely stage hands following un-
thinkingly the orders Of the stage di-
rector. They are original, creative
minds and excellent craftsmen. In
consequence they do their work with
much more regard to its pictorial
quality than was ever formerly the
case. Whatever the theme of the play,
all parts of the settings are so organ
lied in color, line and mass as to form
practically an independent work of
art-rhythmic, expressive.
And since the new artist has no in
tention of hiding the fact that the
stage is, after all, stage and not a

faithful copy of reality, he gives his
imagination free reign. He no longer
conceives stage settings as simply an
enlarged canvas. a magnified easel
painting, but builds in three dimen-
sions, adding to the art of the painter,
the art of the sculptor and architect.
But this practice is fraught with
danger. Once absorbed in his work,
the artist is tempted to disregard the
requirements of the play and to turn
the stage into an art museum, thereby
invariably killing the play. American
audiences win recall more than one
play in the last few years annihilated
in this manner.
Must Suggest Locality.
Associative. This danger is
easily avoided if the artist pays strict
attention to the play-as is indeed the
case with the best among modern
stage designers. The settings must
be related to the theme of the play,
must accentuate its essence, create
the proper environment and back
ground for the action. The settings
must be based on the text and action,
and action is always local. The action
of every play does not take place just

SELMA, Ala, NOV. II CP)-Fhe shot
in the dark which killed Miss Louise
Monteabaro as she was speeding along
a country road Monday night was the
subject of an investigation toni"
with widely different tales told by the
arresting official and the examining
physician.
H. F. Blake, chief of police of Ca
lera, said the girl had shot herself
with suicidal intent after he and an
other officer had arrested her after
five-mile chase. She was charged with
violating the prohibition law and with
speeding, the officer declared Monday
night.
Today during state investigation
ordered at the request of the girls
family, chief Blakke said he had
"fired one shot into the air while
speeding SIS miles an hour in an at
tempt to capture the girl who was
driving from her home in Berlin, Ala
to Birmingham.
Immediately after the shot was fir
ed a bittle was thrown from the car"
Blake added She shot herself with
IN own small automatic after they
captured her, he said.

geon, said there were no powder burns
around the bullet wound. Powder
burns are almost invariably found in
suicide cases." he added. y

higher quotations at Liverpool to-
gether with big European buying, gave
an upward turn today of wheat values
here. PURCHASES for export from
North America were estimated at L.,
100000 bushels. Final Chicago prices
on wheat were firm at the same as
yesterdays finish to nc higher with
corn 1ac to %c off, oats at a shade
decline to an equal advance and pro-
visions unchanged to 15-17c down.
Emphasizing the bullish effect OF
unlocked for upturns in the Liverpool
market were reports that tempera-
lures were too cold for wheat growth
in southern Argentina and that rain
was threatening to extend to the harv-
est region north There were likewise
some indications of a better seaboard

announcement That an additional
cargo of wheat from Duluth had been
worked to come to Chicago for Stor-
age was given considerable stress in
some quarters as the day drew to an
end. There was no particular selling
pressure on future deliveries here and
the strength shown by values at Win
nipeg as well as at Liverpool did a
good deal to modify bear sentiment.
Corn prices weakened toward the
last owing in considerable degree to
selling of 25O,O0O bushels of corn to
go into storage here. Besides corn
belt weather was somewhat more fav-
orable. Earlier, the market displayed
firinness that was associated with re-
ports of decreased movement OF corn
in the southwest and of disappointing
yields both in south Kansas and in
Oklahoma. Oats were steadied by con-
tinued cash demand.

BIG Time Event

Crowded with enjoyable features
and good things to eat, the Father
and Son" banquet last night at the
Y. M. G: A. sent close to $50 men and
boys home happy from an evening
well spent There were 235 served at
the dinner and quite a number joined
the party for their share in the So
ciability of the gathering.
AS originally scheduled, there were
Just 13 numbers on the program in
addition to the supper The plans, as
announced yesterday, were carried out,
but whether it was to dodge the dan
ger of a "13" or just to add to the
pleasure of the hour, the committee
offered an other attraction in cornet
duet by Joe Wright and Pete VIM
berley which proved one of the snappy
things of the card.
And there were clowns, too, half a
dozen or more, so that there was no
lack of fun throughout the evening.
John Hid and Edward Huxtable
proved themselves an efficient pair of
directors in the joint role of toast
masters. The G. and G. orchestra.
directed by Joe Wright added to its
popularity. The singing led by M. j.
Anderson resulted in both music and
enthusiasm and the toasts, Father
to Son" by Charles Nichols, ST., and
that of "Son to Father" by James
Martin, emphasized the aim and value
of such banquets and the Importance
of them to the growing youths.
E. j. Congden, whose address was
the main feature of the speaking pro-
gram, brought an entertaining and
forceful message to both the fathers
and the sons.
The banquet was served by the
Methodist ladies and it is merely re-
cording history that the ladies came
in for some of the loudest praises of
the evening.
