reputation in opera is not always successful on the concert platform and yice-versa; in fact it is rare to find one equally successful in both fields. Kathryn Meisle is that unusual artist whose ability has placed her in the exalted posi- ton of being one of our leading operatic artists as we'll as one of the finest concert singers on the stage to-day. This is the opinion of leading critics in this country and Europe, who go further by ac- claiming her "one of the world s great contraltos."
 Tn opera. in song-recitals. in ora torio, with orchestra-and termed The Ideal Festival Star" this charming contralto has acquired this distinction through her un- usual ability and consistent suc- cesses.
 Quoting the New York Worlds critic-"I have never heard but one or two singers who could rank as her equal" while the reviewer on the Evanstron News said "One of the most exceptional voices now before the public" The Chicago American's endorsement read: Re minded US forcibly of Schumanr- Heink's grandiose organ in it's prime" Tho Louisville Courier , said "A voice not unlike that Of Louise Homer In her prime" When Miss Meisle first sang at the Newark Festival the critic of the Newark Star Eagle said: "Schu- mann- -Heink at her best never sur passed the charming contraito's 's eioquent delivery of the immortal Schubert tone poem." Such testi- moniais are sufficient to convince local music lovers that they can be assured of hearing m artist who Is entitled to be termed "Great" when Miss MeisIe appears here tonight nt Buckingham Hal: in the first of the Community concert series.

Another Onslaught Today Is
Promised to Slash Chi
Cago Pay Roll.
ByUnftea Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, April 10.-Anton J..
Cermak's administrative broom be-
came a scythe today as the new
mayor Of Chicago slashed right and
left in his determination TO make
the city hall place of business"
instead Of the three ering circus"
he said it had been under Big Bill
Thompson.
With one great sweep Of executive
power, Cernak slashed 1900 names
from the city's pay roll on his
first day in Office, and he indicated
that another onslaught today would
remove possibly 800 more.
Establishing himself quickly in
the Office TO which he was elected
Tuesday by a record majority Of
ie4257, Cermak began his task Of
cleaning up by Riding the city
hall Of every possible reminder of
the Thompson administration.
He did not Immediately fill all his
cabinet positions, but selected men
for the most important ones, and
left the others vacant after accept
ing the designations he had request
ed Of the Thompson aides. He will
leave next Monday for a short va
cation and indicated he might not
complete the cabinet until after
that.
The principal reason hundreds
Of employees were dismissed was so
We would be able to function for
the balance of the year." Cermak
told his council, explaining that

But in general, the upper sur
face Of the ice fields is extremely
rough, due to ages of buffeting and
grinding and extreme pressure. It
seems perfectly reasonable to as
sumo that the underside Of the ice
is correspondingly uneven, and
that it indeed will be rough sled
ding when the submarine attempts
to glide along its bottom side.
Leads are fractures in the fields
where open water appears, but
these may not occur for days at q
time.
Hence 7 can not imagine how
the Nautilus can depend on either
finding or regularly utilizing these
leads.
To those on the surface, The
presence and location Of leads are
indicated by dark reflection in
the sky.
But the Nautilus will be going it
blind, and can only detect them
by looking through glass deck
plate.
If conditions were favorable, she
might bore through the ice and use
her coming tower to locate such
reflections.
Even should she detect leads,
and find her way to the surface,
they might prove more of q men
ace than a blessing. For even
with ships designed especially to
Withstand excessive pressure, dis
aster is not infrequent when leads
close about them.
And any pressure which might
start a leak by opening the seams
of the Nautilus would probably re-
suit in the loss Of much of her
fuel oil.
Should the batteries become ex-
hausted and the submarine at
tempt to rest against the under
surface Of the ice, I believe she
will have trouble in staying in one
position.
The Arctic is a place Of storms,
often of hurricane force, which no
doubt will cause the ice to drift
and be in motion, and hence list or
heel the Nautilus and make her
berth precarious.
Such a lack Of stability might
seriously endanger the storage bat
teries and other equipment, and cut
of all power.

ELINOR SMITH
SCARS $4,000
FEET IN PLANE
Sets Altitude Record for
Both Men and Women in
Commercial Ship.
By United Press

By United Press
ROOSEVELT, FIELD, L. L, April
1o.-EIinor Smith, daring 13-year-
old ayiatriz, unoficially was
credited today with having estab-
ushed a new altitude record for both
men and women to shoot at in COM
mercial planes.
Undaunted by q crash two weeks
ago, when she lapsed into IN
consciousness while five miles above
and spiraled to earth, the youth
full pilot took her Bellanca plane
to height of 1880 feet.
The previous record for women
was held By Ruth Nichols, who
reached a ceiling of 28,743.
George Halceman climbed to an
altitude Of 3O,453 feet to see the
mems mark. Both Of these records
we're for commercial planes.
Lieutenant Apollo Soucek attained
mans greatest height by flying to
43,166.
Miss Smith carried two sealed
altirneters. One of them stuck at
$4,000. The other registered $4,000
when it was taken from her plane
after the successful flight.
Airport officials said a preliminary
examination of the Paragraph in
dicated she may have reached an
even greater height than that
registered.
The aviatrix said she felt no Ill
effects from the fight other than
that her mouth was nearly frozen
from breathing the oxygen in the
rarified atmosphere, where the tenn
perature registered 10 degrees below
zero.
