BRITISH PAPERS SCORED HOOVER
 DEBT PROGRAM
This Country Is Likened to "Shylock" Because of Demand That Europe Pay Her War Debts
BY HERBERT MOORE United Press Staff Correspondent )

(CUuteu IrCSS 0tulA SOAACHPOAAuSAAAf
 London, Nov 25-U. P.) Two of the most important British news paper groups, controlled by Lord Beaverbrook and Lord Rothermere,. united to-day to declare it impos- sible for Great Britain to pay her $s5, 5,5O0,O ,O00 debt instalment, due the United States December 15.
 At the same time, it was believed in many reliable quarters that the present British strategy has as its major purpose the procuring of the most generous terms possible if and when readjustment of war debts is eventually considered.
 Although American rejections of the plea for postponement brought general disappointment, 1t was not

Rudy Vallee-As Is.
RUDY vALLEE was born in Island

r UDY VALLEE was born in Island
Pond, Vt. He learned to play the
drums, trumpet clarinet and saxophone
quite early in life, and when he entered
the University of Maine he became a
member of the college orchestra.
Later he organized his own band and
played for various social functions in
town. During the Summer season he
went into vaudeville and got his first
stage experience. Deciding to continue
his education, he enrolled at Yale, later
playing for Gilda Gray at a night club
in New York with the Yale Collegians,
under the direction of Peter Arno, now
famous as a carlcaturiSt
An offer to go to London interrupted
Vallee's schooling but he returned after
year and was graduated in 1927.
Again he organized band and became
quite popular in Boston for his music
Then New York beckoned and he went
into a night club, the Heigh-Ho.
The radio was employed here as a me-
dunn OF advertising, and to this is trace
able the remarkable success in America
of Vallee.
Rudy began to sing the choruses of
simple songs and listeners soon discov-
cred a magnetic voice. They not only
tuned in on him whenever he sang, but
requested records of his songs. The
larger presentation houses next called
for his services, and soon he found his
popularity had grown to such proper
tons that he was signed to. star in

Rise of George White

GEORGE WHITE, whose latest and
~ greatest edition of the Scandals
comes to the Washington Auditorium,
this evening, has emerged through the
wears as one of the geniuses of the con-
temporary stage. He has produced Is
shows in all, IL Scandals" and two
musical comedies, and each has been a
decided success. This is record of
achievement unmatched in the history
of the theater, where even the topnotch
producers constantly meet up with box
Office disaster.
White, however, somewhat differs
in that he is an all-around Snowman
He is a writer and invariably con-
tributes lyrics, music and sketches for
his shows. He creates his own dance
numbers and virtually single-handed
stages his own extravaganzas. He is an
expert on lighting and all the back
stage arts so essential to revue and
musical comedy success. Aside from
this, he is probably the best business
man in the theater.
George White began his career as a
hoofer, and today, in spite of his repu-
tation as producer and the natural
security that comes with handsome
fortune, still manages to find thrill in
hoofing for applause. But that's the
actor in Master White, and so long as he
can bridge the gap between footlights
and audience so long will he be happy.
Piggy" Donovan's saloon was the
scene Of Whites debut. He was a mes
senger boy at the time and between
delivering kilograms stopped on to win
admiration and pennies and nickels
from the customers by doing a few
dance steps. The customers in the sa-
loon were quick to recognize his talent
and gave him his first thrill Of applause.
The idea of going into vaudeville came
to him then, and he Joined with an

that this industry is not as happy

moment, are being discarded right

BRUNO WALTER
To CONDUCT
JAN. 26

Washington will have only one
opportunity to hear the great
German conductor, Bruno Walter,
lead the New York Philharmonic
Orchestra in the concert to be
given at 4:30 p. m. on January
26 at Constitution Hall. -.
The Washington program Will
be largely a repeat of the one
given in New York an January Il:
Haydn's exquisite Symphony IN b
Flat will open the program. Mr.,
Walter will reduce his orchestra
somewhat in order to retain the
effect intended by his composer.
His Last Big Work
The conductor has studied the
score with the view to adapting
its contents to the expanded con-
dition of the modern concert,
making a subtle compromise with
the demands of modern audi
ence and a classic composer. !he
b Flat Symphony is the last
Haydn composed.
The climax OF the program Will
be the beautiful Second Sym
phony of Brahms-the most lyrl-
cal that came from this impas-
stoned composer.
The Washington audience will
be especially favored with the IN
clusion of a modern number by
Prokofieff, "The Prodigal Son."
This ballet received a great
amount of interest when it was
produced in this country under
Daghilev.
FavOrite i'm London
It marked the Russian prodigy's
return to the lyric graciousness
expected of ballet music, while re-
tanning the vigorous contemporary
quality so much a part OF Pro
kofieff.
Mr.. Walter is a great favorite
in London, where he has con-
Quoted many successful operas at
Covent Garden. At present he is
head Of the famous Gewandhaus
Orchestra in Leipzig and has
concluded it's celebration of the

ton of the old Gewandhaus.
