Abbott Thinks Author
 Has Better of Actor

PrLM BEACH, Fla, March 2-- Geors Abbott, actor. playwright and director. says he gets more satisfaction out of writing a good play than he does in acting fine part.
 "Once the author has had his play produced. he loses interest in it. he elaborates. But then n playwright can shut his eye to the current Broadway production, pick up his pen and write another play whereas the actor. weary of his lines, must keep on with his part"
 Interest and enthusiasm for a role dies slow death within a year, he believes As collabora- tor in Broadway "Coquotte. -Four Walls and other successes, Abbott declares the trend of the American theatre is toward truth fitness. The cause of many fail ures on the stage, he believes, may be traced to the door of all untenable premise.
 The United States, in his opin. ion, has the best actors in the world and by far the best com edians."

Woman Executive
 Travels by Ali

OAKLAND, Cal-Six years ago Mrs. Thomas Robinson was a stenographer. Now she is the manager of million dollar re- tail tractor business and consid CTS that train travelling is too slow way to cover the territory to which her duties call her.
 Mrs. Robinson and her husband were faced with the necessity of finding new jobs as stenographer and salesman when their employ er's business met with financial reverses in the post war depres' sion.
 They formed partnership, got credit from a manufacturer and started business on their own account Recently they moved in to a new $95.OO0 building.
 When Mrs. Robinson wants to go to, Oregon or the lumber camps of northern California she dons flying garb. climbs into her own machine and with her husband usually, as pilot, makes the jump in few hours.

BRITISH WOMEN ASK
 FOR MORE TERRACES

LONDON. March 2LBritish wo men, a great number of whom rose to distinction in 1927, are asking for more honors of knight hood and peerage as public recog- hilton of their work.
 Out of 193 honors granted by King George V at the beginning of 1928, only 9 were conferred on women and these were of the low rank. The Women's Freedom league in view of women's records of accomplishment considers this an unfair reflection on their pub lie activities.
 "Peerages have been given b two conservative members of par liament and former governor of Nigeria" the league declared in formal statement. Why was the Duchess of Atholl. the parlia- mentary secretary to the board of education. not given similar dis 1 tinction."
 | Of 30 men who won knight hoods, 12, according to Miss Frances A. Underwood, secretary of the league. were granted foi political and public services, two of the men were distinguished surgeons and one journalist. but no woman in these spheres was given an equivalent honor
 There are a great many wo men just as deserving as men and we particularly think that women should be made privy councillors" Miss Underwood said "I do not see why women should not be given peerages, baronetcies and knighthoods. There should be no distinction whatever now that men and women are doing the same work.
 Tt is the privy council which has decided that women shoule not be admitted to the diplomatic and consular and Indian civi services and if women went or the council I think this would be altered"
 British women nave just hat an exceptionally successful year l More women were chosen for tho office of mayor than in any other year. The election of Lady Iveagl l brought the number of womet members of parliament to seven
 Miss Elizabeth Scott. the w1 man architect, won the attention of the artistic world by her sue cess in designing the winning plans for the Shakespeare Memor ial Theatre. Lady Bailey wa coupled with Lindbergh in tn awards in the field of aviation She created a height record fo women in a light plane.

 disciplinarian in actual soldering. he worked the same rule on him self as well as others. Punctili- ous in dress. his face bronzed by campaigning, Diaz looked "every inch a soldier" One trifling phy sical defect--he was very slightly cross -eyed-was hailed as an omen of good luck by the Italian troops as the superstition was handed down to them by the Lat ins of old.
 It seems that in every great crisis confronting democratic nation that the man of destiny appears. After the Caporetto dis aster all Italy looked for this man to save it from threatened bondage and ruin. Diaz had been secretary to three chiefs of the General Staff
 The memorable defeat of the Second Italian Army--one of the three forces operating against the Germans and Austrians west of the Isonzo threatened to demoral- ize the fighting efficiency of Italy's 3,O0O,000 men. The ap- pointment of Lieutenant General Diaz as Commander-in-Chief on November 9, 1917, soon set at rest the. false hopes of the enemy for the collapse of the Italian front. He filled his soldiers with fresh ardor for victory.
 Enemy Blocked
 During the first three days of his new position as the successor of Cadorna, he said of him, he carried out miracles" which few of his highest officers would have dared to undertake. While the Austro-German avalanche was rushing precipitously toward the city of the gondolier, with it's priceless works of art General Diaz, familiar viz all the details of the ItalianV General Staff'+ plans for Venice's defense-ht had been head of the war office from May, 1915, to June, 1916- gave the orders for blocking the passage of the enemy across the Piave river.
 It was a time for great dejec tion. war correspondents said, ana yet the doughty Neapolitan rallied his forces by the very magic o1 assurance. Confident of victory his energy was contagious. The Austrian tide was stemmed al the Piave as he planned.
 A virtual statemate existed thereafter on the Italian front fo, nearly year, during which Gen eral Diaz was reforming. strength ening. and rejuvenating his arm ies, instilling a spirit of conf dence and victory.
 | Breaks Austrlan Front l Then, in October, 1918, he struck the blow that broke the Austrian front, drove 2 great wedge into the Austrian line and sent the Austrian armies reelinl back inerout with losses of thous ands of men anJ hundreds oi guns. The pride sof Austria wen down in defeat and was humblef in the dust. Within week aftel the beginning of'the Italian often sive, the Austriahs asked fol peace, W Nov.s,4 an armisticf was signed and Apstria's part il the war was ended.

 Forebears Warriors
 Armando Diaz's forebears hal fought in the Napoleonic wars and he had been a student of ,ths art of war since childhood. Born in Naples in 1861, the hoy was destined to bring the hereditary enemy of Italy to her knees,. free his long expatriated fellow coun- trymen of Trieste and the Tren- | tino. | Diaz was educated at the cele. brated military schools in Naples and Turin. Outside of military circles, for years. the future com mander-in-chief of the Italian armies was unknown. He. had made record in the war with Turkey. in the Abyssinian and in 1 the Libyan campaigns, the plans of the last named of which was largely of his own devising.
 Promoted to command of the Twenty-Third Army Corps on tho Isonzo after brilliant generalship in handling a division of troops ,against the Austrians on the Car So in 1915, General Diaz attracted further attention to his grea! ability as an organizer. From ! August, 1916, until he was chosen to succeed General Cadorna, in November. 1917, Diaz utilized his talents in building up the morale of the Italian troops and inspir Ing them with the determination and zeal for victory that filled his own soul.
 Often in Trenches
 Soldiers related of him that when he commanded the Twenty Third Army Corps he sometimes appeared among the trenches. On one occasion. at San Michele, ir the forest of Selo. Diaz rode about utterly oblivious of the terrifis smelling by the Austrians. Siege batteries. it was said, were vom iting columns of incandescent ma terial, making the stone heaps re. hot" And yet Diaz, in the midsi of this storm of death, looked al though he might have been os dress parade.

HEAVY. TRADING
BOOMS RADIO

NEW YORK, March 10.-Specula.
tive interest at the weekend cen.
tered around a few of the motor,
steel and speciality stocks which
have been making stock market
history since last Saturday morn
ing.
Radio Corporation took the play
from General Motors at the begin
ming of trading today, when block
of IS 900 shares was bought out
right at ia, an advance of 6A
points from Fridays close. Gen.
eral Motors rose only point to
1907 in the first period, but the
turnover at $50 was unusually
heavy.
wall Street estimates of new
profits won by prominent traders
in the stock this week range all
the way from 100000 to $10,-
900 900. 1t is known that William
C.. Durant, the former president of
General Motors Corporation, has
been bullish kon the stock since it
sold below IS in 1924. Through
stock dividends and split-ups each
holder of 100 shares of stock at that
time now has 800 shares, worth
$40 900. q profit of $4,000 per 100
shares, or 100000 per thousand
shares.
Since reaching a peak price Of
104 a few weeks ago. Radio Cor
poration has been under selling
pressure. and declined nearly 20
noints to So. Last Saturday, while
| General Motors was wildly soaring
to record high prices, Radio was
| comparatively quiet, closing the
week at "a. Opening yesterday at
| 100 for a block of 10000 shares,
| the stock was one of the fast.step-
pers of Fridays spectacular move
ment, closing the day at 1O7%. The
stock opened today at ia for a
| block of q, 900 shares, declined to
| Ill on profit.taking and rushed up
to I16 in heavy trading.
United States Steel was in good
| demand around LAG, but trading in
| the stock was restricted by the
| desire of the market to- await the
| monthly forward tonnage report.
| due at noon. Wall Street looks for
| a 100, 900 tons increase in untitled
orders of the big steel corporation
| in February.
| Hudson Motors, Hupp, Stude-
baker, and Chrysler maintained
| their best price levels of the week.
| but profit taking appeared in the
oils, coppers, and many of the
/ specialties in the second hour, and
the market developed an irregular
! tone.
Business at the weekend was
spotty, according to the leading
bank and economic reviews. Most
| parts of the country have been en-
/ ioying good weather. and the agr1-
cultural sections of the country
have made satisfactory progress.
| The huge volume of available in
vestment money is without doubt
the most important factor in the
uproarious stock market of the
| past week.
