Heywood Brouns Reoiew May Not Be The
Season S Best, But 1t Furnishes Timely
First Aid to JobZess Actors
BY SWAN
NEA Servica Writer

NEW YORK, - -The YER
satile Heywood Broun, who can
turn out a neatly phrased colunmn
or essay, run for congress, or DO q
monologue in vaudeville, has turned
to a seemingly simple expeolent
for solving the problem OF the job
less actor.
It consists OF putting them to
work.
Since the many Broadway pro-
ducers have no work for them,
there remained the necessity Of be-
coming a producer himself. SO II
happens that in the theater CT the
late Joe Lablang which bears
George NJ. Cohan's name there Is
under way an experiment hitherto
unheard OF in the bright-iig ht sec
ton Of New York. II Is a review in
which everything is contributed:
the sketches, music, direction and
the talent. The performers, with
little 70 lose save their time and
energies. must depend upon the
box-offAce income. Their rewards
must come from a sharing Of prof
its, these to be distributed according
to the rank Of the player.
It's n Good Gamble
Broun, OF course, gets nothing
but a lot Of hard work and the
credit for same. He has confessed
on occasion to being stage struck
although he does not intend TO play
Hamlet"
His revue IS titled, shoot the
Works This, in case you have
neglected your dice games, is a
gambling term, but Witt the odds
sufficient to cause professional
producers 10 show more than a
slight interest.
II it wins, the gentlemen who
put on shows will have something
TO think about. For Columnist
Broun, with three weeks in which
TO toss a new revue at a soporific
Broadway, and with little or no
money TO spend, has a show that
is spotted with MAJOR moments,
balanced by much that is not so
good. And this IN the face Of Ine
fact that some Of the best known
folk Of the writing industry have
dug deep in their archives and
brought out pieces they personally
considered worthy. 1t is infinitely
better than a score Of profession
al productions. and not SO good as
a score Of others.
AT any rate. it has demo lstrated
that there are ways Of keeping
players and chorines employed II
someone cares TO try. Which was,
to a great extent, Broun's point.
Because the matter Of thousands
Of unemployed actors is more
serious than appears on the surface
Of a cooperative revue, a new sort
Of audience-Spirit IS likely 70 be
created. Even an audience may be
expected to become cooperative
under given circumstances. and
while Broun's revue is no brilliant
Band Wagon. neither is it just

TEXAS TOPICS

Most or the blunders concerning
4 legislation usually hurt the public.
But the historic bonehead OF the
recent special session was definitely
10 the benefit OF the public. The
condition which it prevented from
being remedied no longer exists,
and the opportunity has slipped BY.
That blunder was by attorneys
for some Of the oil companies.
They fought and killed. a two-cent
per barrel flat production tax on
oil.
The rate was left at ? per cent
OF the value Of the oil.
Now, only in n year out OF 10
has the price Of oil been below one
dollar. With the east Texas shut
down and the Oklahoma shutdown,
IL Is deemed likely oil will 60 up
again, probably above the 81 level.
Gov. Sterling asked the change
as an increase ia the rates they
existed at the time, due to i'm
perative necessity of stabilizing the
states income.
New conditions arose with the
shutdown in east Texas.
Gov. Sterling would not now
sanction a 2-cent substitute for .
per cent. AS a result, the state
will collect more taxes from the oil
companies.
And the OIL compani s a take Il
up privately with their lobbyists
who defeated the governor at a
time the enactment was needed, 10
the states ultimate benefit under
the new deal.
Although ne does not consider
Gov. Huey p. Longs plan to pre-
vent planting of any cotton next
year is constitutional or feasible,
Gov. Ross S. Sterling Monday an
nounced that he has requested
Commr. j. z. Mcdonald Of the de-
partment Of agriculture to attend
the conference called by Gov. Long
at New Orleans next Fl .ay.
He said Lieut.. Gov. Ed~ar Witt
was invited. and that he hopes Witt
may attend II. Gov. Sterling can
not go to the meeting. he said.
Gov. Long failed to come TO J cot
ton states governors meeting here
recently.
Long. in a lengthy telegram ex-
planning the meeting signed his
title as governor and United
States senator-elect."
Members OF the house this week
sincerely mourned the passing Of
one OF the newspapermen who has
chronicled and interpreted legisla-
tive doings for several years. Clay
Grobe. staff writer Of The Hous-
ton Chronicle, who died Monday,
was paid an a~ffectionate tribute in
resolutions prepared by the house
members here.
Accuracy, fairness, understand
ing. these three necessary attri-
butes Of a writer who is assigned
to recording the acts Of the legis-
lature and saying what ths = acts
mean all were attributes OF Clay
Grobe. He neither sought to cur
~ favor Of members or to quarrel
with their motives in his work: and
he had the qualities that made il
possible TO combine fearless,
straightforward recording OF their
words and deeds and a sincere
friendship with the public persons

to be taken as part and parcel of

Follows Old Pattern
It does not even strive to escape
the conventional pattern OF the re-
vue, although it boasts that no
smoking car stories appear in the
gulSe OF black-outs. One OF its high
spots Is a traVesty on the radio
announcer who, about to leave his
JOB, tells the truth about the prod
uct he Is accustomed TO lauding.
The opening has a sort OF six
Characters in Search Of an Author"
slant, in that the stage is bare and
the rOutine-direCtor Is drilling a
chorus.
Who are all those people back
there?" he asks, turning around.
That's the audience someone
suggests. Whereulon a w~isecracE
passes and the show gets under
way.

notwithstanding. 1t is not seek
ing aims, and a considerable part
Of the moneys worth is assured BY
one Of the snappiest dancing
chOruses in town and a young man,
Johnny Boyle, who not only ar
ranged and trained the routines.
but who also comes on in excellent
dance numbers.
Broun himself is no mean head
liner. but he erred on the side Of
generosity the first few perform
ances and appeared as often as a
columniSt at Sardi's. On the oc-
casion OF the premiere, Br0un
raised the question: is there q
critic in the house?" And then pro-
ceeded to urge that their criticism
be constructive"
AS an old first-String critic him
self, Brown was among the first 10

had expected it TO be. For this in

Naturally, his fellow-workmen Of

tributes Of Texas lawmakers upon

SOME DELICIOUS
RECIPES FOR PORK

Pork is always popular and espe-
cially SO when the weather is crisp
and cold. The department of home
economies, National Live Stock and
Meat Board, suppests the following
unusual pork recipes:
Pork TenderlOin, Mushroom Stuffing
Have two large tenderloins of pork
split lengthwise so that they may be
hattenod out. Dredge in flour which
has been mixed with salt and pepper.
Cut fresh mushrooms in rather thin
slices. Fry for a few minutes in
butter, then spread over one tender
loin, lay the other one on top and
sew all around the edges. Brown
well, then cook slowly for at least
one hour. Serve with thin cream
gravy.
Pork Chops With Grated Cheese
Prepare as many chops as there
are persons to serve. Salt the chops
and squeeze a little lemon juice over
each one. Sprinkle grated cheese
evenly over each chop. Season with
salt and pepper. Arrange in a bak-
ing dish and bake in a hot oven (480
degrees F.) until nicely Drowned
then reduce the heat, cover, and
cook slowly until tender.
Fresh Ham, Stuffed and Roasted
Parboil and chop three large on
ons. Add one-half an apple, chop
ped, and enough dry bread crumbs |
% make the required amount of |
'tuffing. Season with salt, pepper,
md powdered sage. Add the yOll1
If an egg. Have the bone removed
rom a fresh ham. Fill with the
lressing. Sew in place and bake un-
il brown in 4SO degree r., oven,
hen reduce the heat to $50 degrees
=, and cook, allowing thirty minutes

CONTROLS BILLIONS,
SIGNS ONE CHECK
U. S. Treasurer Pens sigma
ture Once a Month on
Hoover Salary Draft.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Walter o. Woods, Treasurer OF the
United States, signs just one Govern
ment check a month. It's President
Hoover's pay check.
Although directly holding the purse
strings in business involving more than
three billion dollars annually, quiet Mr..
Woods actually applies his pen only on
this draft for $6,250 toward the $75,O0O
yearly salary of the President.
He does have his name on Federal
paper money however. His signature
is to be seen on the lower left side OF
the front of each bill. That of his chief,
Secretary Mellon, is on the right
Another duty of the Treasurer is
supervision of the daily statement on
governmental finances. This shows the
condition of the Treasury and expenoi-
lures by the month and year to date
and gives comparisons with the same
periods in the previous year.
Curbed Balance Sheet Gambling.
Woods is credited with having
thwarted gamblers who sought advance
information as to what some daily bal
ance figures would be, on which they
were accepting BETS He put safeguards
around preparation of the statement, SO
that while the data are assembled by
many employees only trusted few know
the result prior to announcement.
Redemption of worn or partially de-
stroyed currency is another matter
under the Treasurers jurisdiction. The
numbers and amounts of bills must be
checked before new currency is issued.
Private Business Barred.
While Woods is charged with dis
bursement of public funds, this work is
done by disbursing officers of the vari-
Gus departments under supervision of
the controllers Office The accounts
later are verified by the Treasurer and
disbursement checks are drawn on him
The law prevents the Treasurer from
engaging in any sort of private bust
ness. He has his hands full as 1t is,
being also treasurer of the board for
the postal savings system and trustee
for bonds held to secure national bank
notes and of public deposits in national
banks.

Great singing voices" says the re-
port, ARE due to the singers mental
and emotional capacity, and not to any
anatomical peculiarities.
Tests Bring New Ideas.
MANY new ideas as to breath con-
troll and sound productions have arisen
through these tests. Observation Of
great singers has shown that they never
produce a dead steady tone except at
pianissimo. The tone fiuctuates in in
tensity with perfect regularity. This
fluctuation, very wide at high intensity,
is accompanied with slight fuctuation
of pitch. This phenomenon is called
the "vibrato." The vibrato Is a result
of periodically applied impulse to all
the muscle which coordinate in the act
of phonation. Its frequency is about
six a second, but can be increased.
THUS, all the time, the singer is
actually singing and stopping singing,
rapidly and regularly. AS the intensity
rises the on impulse is more vigorous
and the swing of the vibrato increases.
This concept of the on md Off
impulse is very different from the old

The voice starts cas- a mental con-

into action two groups of muscles. One
is of seven light muscles controlling
the upper register, or falsetto. The
other group of two, Tar stronger
muscles, controls the lower register.
Loss Of Voice Explained.
"The registers should be isolated and
trained separately" the report adds.
"Only when fully developed should
they be co-ordlnated. Improper CO.

counts for the partial or total loss of
