 A predecessor in the part is Fritzi Scheff, who played in a 1905 revival. The first American per- fCrmance was in 1880, another was in 1888 with De Wolf Hopper in the cast and the last was in 1919.
 The scene is Florence of the Ren- naissance period. An opening chor- us of beggars, tradespeople and students reveals that Boccaccio, the novelist and poet, has made enc mics by his ridicule of the solid citizens, who VOW to avenge them selves.
 Boccaccio meanwhile has fallen in love with Fiametta, adopted daughter of a grocer and actually the daughter of the Duke of Tus- cany, who is about to reclaim her and marry her to Pietro, Prince of Palermo.

FINLAND PUSHES
 NEW ROAD NORTH
 TO ARCTIC OCEAN

PETSAMO FJORD, Finland, Jan. 6.-Tourists soon may come here by auto-almost $50 miles north of the northernmost tip of Iceland.
 When 150-mile road is com- pleted from here to Kyra, connect- ing there with a network of high ways, Finland will claim to be the first civilized country to extend roads continuously to the Arctic.
 The road leads to a harbor which is free of ice at all times, giving Finland gateway for shipping. Starting well above the Arctic cir cle, the highway traverses unculti- vated tracts of Lapland, spanning terrain that varies from steep hills to flat marshes.
 The project was begun in 1916, when Russia controlled the prov ince of Uleaborg, which the road spans to obtain a free waterway passage and avoid the German blockade of the Baltic.

MATTERS SET RECORD
 FOR AERIAL SURVEY
 OF FLOODED REGIONS

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 6.-Aerial photographers eclipsed their fond est dreams in mapping a portion Of the mighty Mississippi.
 They allote d themselves five months to snap pictures of 8,9Oo square miles of the river and it's alluvial valley. At the end of one month they had photographed CATO square miles
 Where they expected to spend the entire winter at the immense task they were able to map an av- craze of 2s2 miles daily, covering cn exceptionally good days nearly 1,500 square miles.
 The work was done under con- tract by the Curtiss-Wright flying service for government engineers who are using the aerial photo graphs to make monster detail map to aid in flood control work.
 In the two seasons a complete mosaic portrait of the river and it's alluvial valley from Cape Girar- deau, Mo, to a point 68 miles south of Memphis has been provid- ed by the surveyors.
 The entire map being prepared by army engineers as a project of the Mississippi flood control com mission will cover not only the Memphis district but the Vicks= burgh and New Orleans areas.
 Its purpose is to provide an up- to-date chart on a large scale of the complete flood region of the river.
 The aerial work this season, which involved the taking of 14,0o0 separate pictures, was carried out with four planes equipped for fly ing at a constant altitude of 12,400 feet and with enough fuel to stay in the air for eight-hour stretches.

BIC MISSOURI WILL. UNDERGO
 FINAL TESTS
Question of Profitable Pro- duction Will Be Deter
 mined Soon

PRINCE RUPERT, B. C.-With the turning on recently of the 100- ton pilot mill and the arrival from Kimberley of Stan Gray for the purpose of making final adjustment and general tuning up, the Big Missouri property at Stewart has passed into the final stage of it's development, the results of which will determine whether or not the ore is capable of profitable produc- tion, declares the Prince Rupert News. The present position at the property is that there is a large silicified porphyry zone of upwards of POO feet in which low gold val ues are found. This zone extends almost the entire length of the
 property and is interlaced with
 narrow quartz stringers some of which carry exceptionally high gold values with considerable visible or
 free gold. A very difficult prob lem is thus created as, by the very nature of the deposit and structure, sampling is most unsatisfactory. Faced with this condition the man. agement, which is in the hands of the Consolidated Mining and Smelt- ing Company, had only two choices either to drop the property or to install a pilot mill to enable a more complete test to be made. Having expended a very large amount on development, it was only natural that the latter course should be adopted. The values, while high in spots are in the aggregate under stood to be very low and the oper- ation of the mill will determine whether or not they are commer- cial. It seems to be generally &C., cepted that, in order to make profitable operation, Timing will have to be carried on on a large tonnage basis. A high grade shoot system similar to that in Pre- mier may have to be introduced. This, while not yet determined, is possible. Some years ago an eminent geologist contend ed that there was a possibility of the Premier zone swinging and fol- lowing on under the Big Missouri.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Boccacclo is coming back to Broadway in the personable person of Maria Jerit- ga.
 The blond Viennese prima donna will be seen in the title role of Franz von Suppe's Viennese oper- etta, "Boccaccio," when it is re- vived by the Metropolitan opera.
 Furthermore, the production IS to be given grand opera manner by the introduction of new recita- tives by Artur Bodanzky, the con- ductor, and a Viennese himself, for the spoken dialog which experi- ence has shown cannot be heard throughout the large auditorium of the Metropolitan.
 The role of Boccaccio, written in 1879 by Von Suppe out of incidents in the famous "Decameron,' is a rich one for Mime Jeritza. She all ready has demonstrated. as Oc- tavian in Der Rosenkavalier," that

HEAD OF MINE FIRM WARNS
AGAINST COMMODITY INITIATION

1.-The lower price Of silver has not
been determined by increased produc-
ton or by decreased normal conSump-
ton, but by this method Of debasing
the silver currencies Of India. The ex-
cess supply Is that silver which should
have been held in the British-India
treasury, or, in other words, England
was unwise in attempting to maintain
sterling at higher point by debasing
silver.
with commodity prices in this coun-
try 80 to SO per cent below the highest
levels in 1929, mining production is on
more profitable basis. And, Of course,
these lower commodity prices enhance
our world competitive position and
likewise they are conducive to sounder-
especially better consumption-condi-
tons In this country.
Effect on Commodities.
Operations Of the gold standard in
the 1923-1929 period operated to reduce
commodity prices at the rate Of about
per cent yearly. This would have
implied q net reduction in averages OF
16 per cent up to the end Of 1881,
rather than the 80 or SO per cent re-
duction that confrontS us now. On this
basis q recovery of II or 20 per cent
would be justified, but this is a some
what academic attitude and the per-
centage Of recovery now should be On
the basis Of the commodity price re-
duction In non-gold standard countries.
1T is recognized generally among
most foreign exchange experts that an
immediate return to a $l.29 silver price
would demoralize, rather than improve,
the Far Eastern markets. 1t is agreed
among many that 60-cent price would
be the most practical and that the
16-to-1 ratio could be achieved over a
long period.
However, we should not rush into
any trap set by countries that are I'M
able to operate on gold standard,
which, after all, is sound money basis
that includes silver"

|B|G BANKING FUND
MEANS NEW ERA
Confidence Bound to Be Help
ed by Hoover Move, Econ
omiSt Declares.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, october 1.-THE Ma
tons leading economists and financial
observers among whom is usually to be
noted a vigorous individuality Of out
look, are unanimous in believing that
President Hoover's plan to mobilize the
banking resources Of the country strikes
at an important cause Of our present
ifficulties-namely. lack Of confidence
in the banking system-and promises to
replace mistrust with growing conf
dence, according to Gage p. Wright,
economist.
Bank runs, the boarding Of money
and the current low prices for bank
stocks reflect clearly the unreasoning
fear which has prevailed in recent
months" Mr.. Wright pointed out. ITO
cope with this situation. banks have
been compelled to hquidate marketable
assets in order to achieve position Of
extreme liquidity.
LAS banks hold large amounts OF
bonds in their portfolios and as bonds
possess higher degree Of marketability
than loans or mortgages, the weight Of
bank liquidation has fallen most heavily
clined precipitately in recent weeks, i'm
pairing confidence still further. Thus
a vicious circle has been established;
fear has caused liquidation, liquidation
has increased fear.
Assuming that the bankers cooper
ate fully in carrying out the details of
the Presidents plan-and there is good
reason to believe that they will do So
this vicious circle should be reversed.
In effect, an agency will be set up to
advance loans to banks on collateral
not now acceptable to the Reserve
banks. Thus the necessity for much of
the recent liquidation by banks will be
eliminated; depositors. assured that the
strength Of the banking system is be-
hind the individual bank, will be re-
assured. In short. confidence will sup
plant fear, and an important obstacle
to business recovery will disappear.
Few authorities expect a rapid re-
covery in business, however The opin-
ion prevails that improvement must be
gradual, for confidence cannot be es-
tablished overnight"
