friends intend to comply with the
law by abstaining from use of in

Il wish to congratulate YOU"
wrote the Rev. K. N. Holsaple, su-
perintendent OF the state league. ION
the character of your statement over
the radio on election night and the
high note of loyalty to American in
situations and policies sounded
therein.
You said the verdict OF the
American people has been rendered,
and, in accordance with democratic
principles We cheerfully accept the
will of the majority and shall take
our place in the ranks of the ma
jority of American citizens Xxx
"Now." continued Rev. Holsaple.
in view OF the fact that the chief
loouC StI SoSVu bS 1oNtIllUT SNlltu
was a change in the prohibition law
and that the effort of yourself as re-
peatedly expressed was to rid the
country Of the 'damnable affliction
of prohibition and in view Of the
fact that the voters repudiated the
suggestions along this line. together
with your public statement, are we
to understand that you mean in
cheerfully accepting the will of the
majority you and your friends in
tend to comply with the spirit Of
the law by abstaining from the use
Of intoxicating liquor which was pro-
cured in violation OF the law as well
as obey the letter of the law by re-
fusing to patrorize those who vio-
late it through the manufacture and
sale Of intoxicating liquors?
perhaps It should be assumed
that your statement Implies that,
but am sure you will pardon me
for asking for a slight application
Of it in order that we may be sure"

ASCENSION Will
COST JAPS MONEY
Twelve Millions to Be Spent
for Celebration

Kyoto, Japan. Nov. > UP - Ac-
cording to preliminary estimates 1t
will cost the Japanese government
and the imperial family approx
mately 100000 yen (about $12.-
900, 000) to celebrate the accession
to the throne of Hirohito. 124th en-
peror, in a manner deemed fitting
to the august position to which he
has succeeded. The principal cere-
mony will be held tomorrow. About
100000 yen will come directly
from the fortune OF the imperial
family.
Many Ceremonies
The high costs of the enthrone-
ment are due to the long period
covered by the series of ceremonies:
by the outlay necessary to produce
In great detail and In the finest pos
sible materials pageant as nearly
az possible like that of the ancient
court of Kyoto: by the tremendous
mobilization of police and other
guardians Of the peace to insure alb
solute safety to the person Of the
emperor and entire tranquility
throughout the realm during this
suspicious period: by the construc-
ton Of many buildings that will
never be used again. and by the
distribution OF largess and the con-
ferring Of honors. titles and gifts
unequalled in any other state.
Not Garish Palace
Despite its expensiveness. the
Japanese enforcement presents
little Of the garishness and fiambou-
lance ordinarily associated with
Oriental display. The palace at
Kyoto where most of the cere-
monies are held is no splendid.
slistening pile. 1t Is rather a skill
fully arranged and co-ordinated
group Of smaller, simply built and
furnished residences. pavilions and

and severity OF line and sombreness
in color.
The enforcement is the only
great oriental pageant that survives
On Sucn a scale since the Manchus
were toppled from the dragon throne
OF China and other peoples of the
east came under the rule Of alien
races. In the Occident there remains
nothing TO compare with It in its
wealth of symbolism. the amount Of
preparation involved and the wealth
required to carry it through.
No Resentment
To the foreign observer it appears
that the national accepts this ex-
pense. for the occasion which comes
once in lifetime. without any re-
sentiment worthy of notice. This is
due In part to the general diffusion
Of wealth and benefits that accom-
pany the occasion. although chief

New York. Nov. > N-In hoods
Of warm. amber spotlight. with
braves" ringing in her ears. Clara
Jacobo. once . mill worker in Law
renee. Mass. stepped up last night
into her world" that golden world
toward which she had struggled for
nearly Is years-the stage OF the
Metropolitan Opera House.
She made her debut there. in III
Trovatore." whose tuneful arias she
could sing at an age when most
children are learning kindergarten
dities. And the demonstration that
followed. after she had sung with
Giovanni Martinelli the old familiar
"Miserere" she used to sing
all by herself as a child. both So
prano and tenor-could have left no
doubt In the minds Of her old
friends from Lawrence that she was
a success.
Father Listens
From an inconspicuous seat In the
gallery. a sturdy little old man. with
quick brown eyes and dropping
grey mustachios. listened intently to
every note uttered by the new dra-
matte soprano OF the Metropolitan
Opera company. leaning far forward
to watch her as she came out again
and again at the close to take her
curtain calls. Neatly dressed he was,
in dark blue serge, with an old
fashioned red seal dangling from his
watch chain.
Overcome with shyness and q bit
confused. he appeared back stage
while the new prima donna was
posing for pictures with Martinelli
and Madame Matzenauer and DAN
ise.
Papa" She shouts

Ian voices. and he was dragged up

those glowing moments on the stage
Of the Metropolitan Opera House
last night. all the English he had
ever known. He could speak only
Italian-and not much OF that.
Dr.. N. F. De Cesare. childhood
friend Of Clara Jacobo. who had
come down from Lawrence in =
delegation headed by Mayor and
Mrs. Michael A. Landers. tried to ex-
plain how he felt.
HE took that seat away up In
the gallery" DR.. De Cesare said.
because he was afraid he might get
emotional-perhaps shed few tears
and he didn't want to disturb
those around him. In the gallery. he
thought, 1t might not matter 20
much.
Thinks OF Mother
you see, Clara's mother-who
believed in her long before he did
and persuaded him finally to let her
90 to italy to study-died only
short time after Clara went away.
And tonight he's heartbroken be
cause she can't be here.
when once he made up his mind
to help Clara become a great singer,
Mr.. Jacobo went all the way, all
right. He's been . wonderful father
to her and to all his children.
Worked hard all his life-l guess
you can zee that"
