 Edison himself will be included in the program.
 A tribute from Germany by Pro- lessor Albert Einstein to Edison in commemoration of the occasion has been added to the international pro- gram planned for this evening by the NEG. Speaking into a micro phone in Berlin Professor Einsteln's 8 voice will be carried to all corners of the United States less than half a second after he starts to talk, Ein- stein is expected to speak for two minutes, half of the time being de- voted to q tribute in German and the remainder in English. His voice from Berlin will be carried by land wires to London and thence through a regular transatlantic telephone service to NEG studios in New York.
 Leopold Stokowski, conductor of the famed Philadelphia orchestra, moody Russian though he Is, loves his joke. And he will have it even if it costs him his radio popularity, assured a few Sundays ago, and loses for him an expensive broadcasting contract.
 For the old maestro intends to play Stravinsky's Sacre du Printemps when he broadcasts November 8. Stravinsky is not classic. He uses queer rhythms, queerer harmonies. Fans-reactionary fans-critics per- haps-say that it is nothing less than sacrilege for a conductor like Stokowski and his orchestra to wan der outside the tried and true clas- sical field for his program and to include modern music over which controversy still rages.
 Editorials, letters to the editor, letters to Stokowski, called attention to this after Stohowskfs sensational announcement after he had finished his first broadcast. They scarcely could believe their own ears when the astonishing pronouncemento was made. After Wagner's Bacchanale and the Venusberg music from Tannhausers, it is too much for Sto- kowski to follow the Stravinsky,"

So says Mons. Conforti, bishop of Parma, Italy, recently. He was speaking of the women of Somaliland, Egypt, India, Man churia and the Chinese Repub- ic, who have a far keener sense of feminine modesty than their white sisters according to the Bishop.
 He points out that women of cities and country are adopting much too short and light frocks, oobbing hair, unchecked use of ipStjck are evident signs of de-
 ay in the moral system of to- tay's society which only leads to future disasters and ruin,
 He declared it possible for the women to dress we'll and even De smart without going too fa1 md diving morals to the rocks. He closed his letter by ordering the priests to deny he sacre- ment to the unworthy"

FAERPLAY FOR THE REDSKIN

Discard all testimony of h. dtans unless it is confirmed by white officials, and still the management of the Indian Bu- reau is a putrid mess of incom- petence and graft,
 Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, just back in Washing ton, summed up in those words the results of the investigation recently conducted by Senat-. 0rial subcommittee mad up of Ia Toilette, Wheeler and Frazier, with the latter as chairman.
 "Twenty-fve per cent of the Indians we visited have tubercu- Iosis," said Senator Wheeler. Since most of the families are huddled together in one-room ShackS, this means that ali are exposed to the disease.
 1 Many of these shacks, perhaps most of them, have no floor ex- cept hard-packed dirt-an ideal condition for spreading the dis ease.
