THRILLING PLAY
FROM WRC
TONIGHT

Those earnest souls who have had
the upkeep of the broad "a" drama
at heart will have gala night on
the wave lengths. The Eveready
people are scheduled to produce
Louise N. Parker's thriller, "The
Monkeys Paw one of the most
lurid Of the so-called realism school
OF the theater of the intelligensia,
through WRC at 3 O'Clock this eve
ming.
In Paris, where this class of thing
is done to the queens taste in the
Grand Guignol type of one act thrill
ers, they don't make any pretense
of uplift about it. The managers
produce the thrillers for pure thrill.
We hope the Eveready people will
do the same thing tonight and we
know of nothing that can come to
listeners better calculated to JOLT
them than this piece. However, It
will only take about 20 minutes OF
the Eveready hour. The remainder
Of 1t win be devoted to Nat Skilkret 8
music. and Skilkret can be depended
upon to smooth out the ruffled emo
tions, if any.

OPERA SINGERS
STAR IN AIR
PROGRAMS

Fair tn bang.up reception was
reuorted from all parts Of the
continental brOadcasting system
last evening. The bangs were
supplied by static f1Oises-DuC
they were not as insistent or
| denlOralizing to listening as the
noises over the weekend and
programs of high power could be
! tuned through them. There was
| considerable code and fading was
about as usual.
Beginning with the Marine Band
concert yesterday afternoon, loud
speakers provided a rather steady
stream of fine music or good comedy
| for listeners until the early hours
| OF the morning with so much 70
hear one needed half a dozen radio
receivers and as many pairs or ears
to hear it all.
One of the big byproducts o.
good, coming from radio listening
| these days is the character build
ing it is doing for listeners in max,
ing them decide which of several
yery much desired things they will
hear and listening to that to the
exclusion Of the others without un-
necessary regret over the inability
to hear everything spelling the en-
ioyment OF what one does hear. The
fact that one cannot have every
thing on the air. through the
physical inability to hear it all at
once. is teaching a rather valuable
lesson, If one thinks it over care
fully. because human beings have
never quite been satisfied with what
each possessed and most of the
trouble in the world has been
started by people reaching out for
something another fellow seemed to
be enjoying.
GOOD PERFORMANCE
OF GRAND OPERA
That, however, hasn't anything to
do with the fact that our most
trusted reporter tells us the per-
formance of "CavalIeria Rusticana
by the National Broadcasting Conn
pany's grand opera contingent
through .WRC was a masterpiece
of operatic production-yoca1ly and
fundamentally. Astride Fjelde, the
Norwegian soprano who has been
doing some of the best singing in
opera we've heard this season, was,
we're informed, an ideal Santuzza
and Julian Oliver, tenor. gave the
part of Turidu everything it needed.
The Voice of Firestone, in its
second appearance-or rather its
second week because 1t encored
itself last week and two-timed the
same program-justified the en-
coniums that had been heaped upon
its first and second appearances.
The program presentation was the
chief attraction-the continuous
stream of good music well pre-
sented. In the General Motors
affair Nancy Holbrook, soprano. and
Robert Adams, tenor, are reported to
have given a good account of
themselves and the Roxy perform
ance brought California's whistling
daughter. Mickey Mckee, back to
the microphone after a long alb

Workers Modified.
The Communist newspaper, "Rote
Fahne," in spite of the confiscation
of it's last two issues, continues ap-
peals to the workers of Austria,
calling upon them to mobilize on
Sunday, day which it terms all
important to the working class, call
ing upon all railroad workers to
strike and sieze all railroad depots.
The appeal also includes orders for
the arming of all workers.
1t is expected that the principal
Communist leaders will be arrested
before the demonstration and held
on charges of sedition.
Several international pacifist So
c;eties, including the American Eel
lowship of Reconciliation, have petit
toned the Austrian government to
forbid the demonstrations, since if
they are allowed to proceed the re-
suit would be bloodshed. This APP
peal, as we'll as others, was ignored
by the government.

Chill { REFUSES
MORGAN COPPER
MONOPOLY CLAIM
Decline to Reduce Tax
on y. S. Petition

SANTIAGO, Chile, Oct. 4.-The
claims of the American copper in
terests against the Chilean taxation
law, which were presented to the
United States government last May,
were answered in way unsatisfac-
tory to the state department today
in an official note by the minister
of finance.
The copper mines in Chile are
held in virtual monopoly by the
American concerns, the Chile Elk
ploration Company and the Braden
Company. These companies, in
their petition to the American state
department, objected to the tax inn
posed by the Chilean government
upon their products, claiming that
it curtailed their profits. The com
panies operate in the Potrerillos,
Chuquicamata and Ell Tenlente cop
per deposits.
The note of the minister OF
finance, published today, takes up
all the points of the American
claims, and demonstrates that the
earnings of these companies during
the last few years have beeen per.
fectly satisfactory, and insists or
the right of Chile to tax all incomes
The note also includes an article
published in local paper which de.
scribes the consolidation of the cop.
per interests in the United States
in November, 1926, whereby Ameri.
can interests, including j. P. Nor
gan and the Guggenheims, managed
to control the world markets. The
note points out that the policy pur
sued by the copper interests is un
doubtedly based on the program
adopted and enforced by the Unite'
States trust.

ARMY GROWING
,250,000 Unemployed
in Key Industries

LONDON, Oct. As the winter
months draw near the 1.25O,00O I'M
employed workers of England are
wondering how they are going to
live, in view of the fact that pros
poets for work are even worse than
last year.
There are no prospects of any re-
lief, since, as economists persist in
pointing out, the unemployment
crisis is not temporary and promises
to become more critical, due to the
intensive competition on the worlds
markets and the classification and
introduction of new machinery in
british industry
The industries especially hard hit
are mining, shiphuilding, building
and contracting, metal manufacture
and textiles, practically all the key
industries. The situation in the tex
tile industry is growing worse from
day to day, throwing more workers
into the ranks of the unemployed
army.
