College Girls Are 'Moanin' Low"
(New York rimes9


 Girls with sweet soprano voices becoming as rare as real blondes. Professor William Haddon head of the music department at the College of St Elizabeth, says that American girls are definitely lowering the pitch of their voces' He backs up his statement with statistics from newly made voice tests of freshman candidates for the gee club
 The downward trend in grlish trbes he attri- butes to an organic change caused by wild cheering at football games and by incessant smoking. So- pranos are becoming colored altos, and altos are drifting toward the bass
 Professor Haddon takes the change philoso- phicay He is no reformer. He asks no bans on cigarettes or cheers He simply records the facts. Let the girls do as they like As a matter of fact, his announcement will no doubt set many maiden with high clear voice to smoking two packs in stead of one a day and double her enthusiasm and hung power at the next football game. For low, throaty voices are tremendously fashionable
 The deep voice of Ethel Barrymore has been initiated by hundreds of admirers. The hoarse tones Of Jeanne Eagles Sadie Thompson and the low pitched parts exploited by Lenore Uric met with fesounding approval. Libby Holfnans alto of the darkest dye is an important part in a current musical hit
 Radio and talkies distort the thin high notes of feminine voice in disagreeable fashion, but record faithfully a rich contralto. No doubt college girls are discovering that low voice-regardless of whether it be soft and gentle-is excellent thing in woman

Cheaper Books in Sight.
Manchester GuardianO

Changes it appears are at last going to take place in the book trade It is time. In the first place the booksellers are going to counter the ravages brought about in their business by the Book Society with similar organization of their own They too will choose a committee of emin- cnt literary men whose selection of the best books Of the month will be widely advertised-shown in shop windows written in the sky, burnt into the night with letters of fire; they too will offer us exclusive tips from MT. Shaw, MT. Bennetts fav- orites; and, presumably. those of us who consider obedently buy the books they recommend. If there must be book societies the more the merrer For then they will cancel out, like a of advertise ments for different brands of beer. The moment that the public realizes that nearly all the eminent writers of the day value books differently it will appreciate the slight importance to be at tached to such judgments, The other impending change in the book trade is much more important, and calculated if successful, to do away with book societies altogether. For the tyranny of the Book Society arises out Of the tyranny of the seven-and six penny book It is said that publishing house whose name has not yet been divulged, is going to take it's courage in both hands and reduce the present preposterous price of books is going to offer new books at a price which will enable us to be venturesome; to drop into bookshop and pick up this that, and buy it just on the chance that it may be good. The habit of buying books except those by writers with established reputations, is dying out This should revive it. And a very good thing too.

 Tho first autopsy, last April failed to disclose anything to rcfutc a statement by Major W. C. WhItmore, the attending physician, that death was caused by acute cardiac dila- ton.

 Poison Probability
 The petition set forth that the coroner was about to order the autopsy "by reason of the possibility of the death not being due to natural causes but caused by the administra- ton of poison," adding that since the yisccra was removed when Mrs. | Scvicr died methods of cNamlnauon no. generally employed by phySi- clans would he necessary.

Naval Delegates Anxiously Await
 Publication of Tonnage Figures As
 Outlined by Young French Premier

But circles close to both the Jap | anese and American delegations felt the difference in the two viewpoints would be reconciled with a compro- misc allowing the Oriental power somewhere between 60 and 70 per cent of the cruiser strength of Great Britain and the United States. Sug- gestion was made that G6 @-3 per cent would be about right.
 Sums Up Viewpoint
 Ono Japanese summed up his gov crnment's viewpoint:
 "Although Japan feels there is a misunderstanding regarding the ra- tio which she desires the matter is not at all serious and there will be the friendliest sort of conference be tween the two delcGationes in order to arrive at some figure which will be mutually acceptable.
 "So far as the Japanese desire 10 build extra cruisers is concerned il is certain that she would agree to scrap five or six of her present vcS- scls if the United States would allow her 70 per cent ratio and agree not to build up to lSO,0OO tons.
 "ThC chances are that the United States will not insist on 60 per cent ratio nor Japan upon 70, but that there will be a compromise some where between 65 and 6S per cent. If granted a two-thirds proportion | ,,,1, T ,r4s l,-+ T acccpt-my country would have l20.- 900 tons or the right 10 build one additional 10000 ton ship, which, Tn all probability, never would be con- structcd.'
 Japans claim to 70 per cent ratio would give her the right to | 1 26 000 tons of heavy cruisers, com- pared to 1S0,O0O tons of American and 100000 tons of British ships of that class. Japan now has l06.400 tons, embracing ten vessels already built and two which are under way.
 One Result Accomplished
 One of the most definite technical accomplishments of the conference to date was reached yesterday when the conference committee accepted the report of the sub committee of experts on combining the British and French plans of category and globa tonnage fleet measurement. There still arc some differences on minor points which must be submitted tho chief delegates for settlement.
 In sim plc lancuage however tho experts agreed that Italy and France could transfer tonnage between tho Catcgories of small cruisers and de stroyers up to one hundred per cen to fit their needs but that the United States, Great Britain and Japan mus agree on totals for each category o ship and stick to it.

Japan Repeats Demand

London, Feb. IS R-Japan has reiterated her demand for a 70 per cent cruiser ratio with tho navies of Great Britain and the United States, but it was not expected today she would adhere so stoadfastly to this demand that compromise would not be possible.
 Ambassador Matsudaira, calling on Senator Reed. who is speaking for America in Amcrican-Jap apanese ne- gotiations, presented him with a statement on the Japanese view point. This statement. among other things, was understood definitely to have rejected the proposal of the United States that the island empire he satisfied with a cruiser ratio of SO per cent.

 STAND OF PARTY
Insists Republicans Meeting
 Prohibition Squarely

New York. Feb. Is LP--ASscrting that the republican party was facing without evasion the prohibition ques- ton, Secretary of War Patrick Jay Hurley told members of the Nation al Republican club at it's annual Lin coin dinner that the republican party is not a party of notification.
 stand Behind Law
 'The eighteenth amendment is a part of the constitution he said. We hear much talk of the nullifica- tion of that amendment by violation of it. The air is full of superficial arguments about prohibition and personal quarrels and conflicts in- volving it. About all this discussion and clamor there is just one clear note, and that is that the republican party and the republican president, faithful to their traditions. are standing rusolutcly by the constitu- tion.
 The president has no choice as to what laws he will enforce and what ones he will not. He has no | ilSHl tO change any ldN. IilS llISL official act was to take q solemn oath 10 uphold the constitution and en- force the laws of the nation. Con- stitutional amendments may be re- l pcalcd or modified by the orderly 1 processes provided in the Constitu- tion. The republican party is not party of nullincation."
 Praises Hoover
 Secretary Hurley refe A'ed to Prcsi- dent Hoover as an executive "splcn- didly attuncd to the voice of the people, and praised his handling of the situation that arose over the collapse of the stock market. He also lauded the administration for it's handling of the problems of farm re- lief, the tariff. inland waterways. economy and tax reduction.
