BARKLEY WILL
Be KEYNOTER
ShouSe Permanent Chair
man Choice of Convention.

By United Press
CHICAGO, April 5.-Recommen-
dalton of Senator A. w. Barley of
Kentucky as temporary chairman
and keynoter of the Democratic ma
tional convention, and Jouett
Shouse, chairman of the national
executive committee. as permanent
chairman, was seen today as a COM
promise in the interest of party
harmony.
The recommendations. subject to
ratification by the national COM
mittee and convention, were made
by the subcommittee on arrange
mentS after a day of wrangling IN
an ornate Congress hotel suite, ad-
joining the famed "Smoke-fllled"
room where Republican bosses picked
President Harding as the 1920
nominee.
Senator Barley was the choice
of supporters of Governor Franklin
D. Roosevelt OF New York.

tresses successfully portray his char
acters.
Emily Tharp as Eloise Letheridge
the fault-f1nding wife of an artist,
and Margie Bailey as Mrs. Random
the mother who successfully ties ner
apron strings about her son, play
roles which prove the old adage
Women, like dinner gongs, should
be struck regularly"
Some of the male parts seem
miscast. ]. Jerome Littell, who
plays DR.. Bruce Mortonby, the doc
tor who admits he is failure at
love making, would be more con-
vincing as Alan Letheridge, the
artist who loses a wife and finds a
love. And I think Melvin Bergman,
who takes the artist role, would
make a better physician than does
Littell.
Four distinct plots are apparent
in the play. DR.. Mortonby and
Laura Corbin love one another, but
she is married to a man whom she
feels duty-bound not to desert. Lii
liam Hamilton, in the part of Mrs.
Corbin, depicts very clearly the
woman who places a supposed duty
above a certain love.
The kind of mother love which
really should be called selishnesS is
shown in Mrs. Random's part,
Hartley Random, the son, played ex-
cellently by William Titus, makes
one little sortie alone into the world

Choir Presents
Good Concert
BY WALTER d. HICKMAN


If the members of the Mendeis-
sohn choir ever had any doubt as to
their drawing power, that doubt was
removed last night at Caleb Mills
hall when the choir appeared in
concert with Hans Kinder, as guest
artist.
The audience was the largest that
I have seen at any of the Civic
music concerts this season.
The efforts of Elmer Andrew
Steffen in directing this mixed choir
showed that splendid improvement
is being made in the tonal quality.
Never has Steffen had a better
male section than he had last night.
That was proven when the choir was
singing The Death of the Choir
Boy" This number was better done
last night than anything I have
heard this choir do in the last sew
eral years.
was tremendously interested in
the four Stephen G. Foster numbers
Garry Me Long" sung by the
men alone; "Massas in de Cold,
Cold Ground" splendidly done by
both the male and female voice; II
Dream Of Jeanne" and de Camp
town Races" a jolly swinging
affair.
Kinder is a splendid artist,
capable of producing the hghtest
tones as we'll as the heaviest from
his cello.
Nine. Marguerite Belize Steinhart
. was the accompanist for Kinder
and Paul R. Matthews for the choir.

POLICE PATROL
CAPONE SUBURB
DURING VOTING
AIS Thugs Charged With
Election Violence in
Cicero.
By United Press
-

I DD JHtttH IFtsS
CHICAGO, April 5.-Two hun
dred and fifty Chicago policemen to-
day patroled Cicero in a municipal
election. while sensations centerine
about Al Capone, who made the sub
urb famous, piled up rapidly in Chi
cago's bitter primary to be held a
week from today.
Specially deputized Chicago police
guarded Cicero for the first time
since they killed, Frank Capone
brother Of Al, in a running gun bat
tie eight years ago.
Primary developments in Chicago
focused attention on the gangster
leader, guarded in jail night and day
by federal deputies, as he awaits
outcome of his appeal from income
tax fraud conviction.
Grand Jury Probe Ordered.
Widespread charges were made
that Capone henchmen have re-
sorted to violence, fraud and in
timidation in an effort to elect can
didates favorable to their leader,
and to any possible plea he might
make for clemency.
A special grand jury investigation
of gangland election terrorism was
ordered by Judge Michael Feinberg,
Republican states attorney candi-
date, as well as study of judicial i'm
propriety charges lodged against
him by his opponent, John A. Swan
son, states attorney.
Judge Feinberg named white
haired Frank j. LoeSch, 80-year- odd
head of the Chicago crime commits
sion and Wickersham commission
member, as special states attorney
to prosecute the inquiry. Loesch was
uncertain whether he would accept
the post.
Charge Plot to Steal Primary.
The Feinberg order was issued on
the request of Mrs. Florence Nc
Patrick Kirk, Gold Coast society
leader, who cited lawlessness includ-
ing the murder of Nicholas Tesla.

There are 10000 speakeasies and
saloons" said the petition, (which
obtain liquor from agents or under
lings of Capone. In return Capone
and his agents endeavor to protect
