CHlLDREN'S PLAY GIVEN
"Curdie, the Princess and the Cob
1inV af fhA Nafinnal

"Curdie, the Princess and the Cob
lin" at the National.
Theatrical ideas in words and actions
that appeal to an audience Of children
were presented in attractive form at the
National Theater on Saturday. when the
Children's Theater of New York gave a
popular story in stage form, making
realistic the thrills Of "Curdie. the Prin-
cess and the Goblin"
Probably q fairly large number Of the
members Of the audience had read the
book on which the production was based
and welcomed successive views Of the
characters, played by the members of
the famous New York juvenile organi-
zation. The young actors have been
doing this kind Of work regularly In
the metropolis, and have the ability that
comes from constant practice, just as
more mature actors develop to a high
degree Of perfection in more mature
drama.
The selection for Saturday was one Of
the best OF the series that has been Of
fered by the New York Children's Thea
ter. The supernatural activities Of the
goblins, with their humorous expert
ences with humans, who also enjoy the
advantage of magical aid, furnished an
ideal combination Of comedy and dra-
matte force, while the nature OF the
play, above and below ground. offered
opportunities for somewhat spectacular
scenes, which had been created with
ability.

for the next twenty-four hours is a
temperature about three degrees be-

The Wabash river is falling at

WASHINGTON, March 23.-La-
Dor Secretary Frances Perkins, first
woman member of an American
cabinet today defended the RooSe-
welt Sl-a-day reforeStation program
against implications that it would
create open air "sweatshopS.'
Secretary Perkins appeared before
a joint congressional committee con-
sidering the bill to recruit $4,000
jobless men for work in the woods.
Miss Perkins told Senator Hugo
Black COem., Ala0, that she was in
favor of his 30-hour week bill and
believed the government should use
all its influence to maintain salts
factory wages and standards of liv-
ing.
Today's appearance was Miss Per-
kins' first before congressional
committee.
Before Miss Perkins testified, the
committee heard R. Y. Stuart, chief
of the United States forest service,
propose that the civilian nemploy-
ment army be permitted 10 work

DEATH PROBERS
SEEKING WOMAN
Name of Evans Girl Friend
May Be Barred Soon,
Says Coroner.

Name of the "other woman" In
the Evans suicide case may
be revealed Friday or saturday with
DR.. William E. Arbuckle, county
coroner, preparing to subpoena Doro-
thy Hill, the Evans Negro maid, for
questioning.
DR.. Arbuckle did not indicate
what course his inquiry would take,
but the maid is known to have given
Paul Rockford, attorney for Mrs.
Ellen Evans, information to be used
in the divorce suit the slain woman
had filed.
The divorce action, and the re-
Sultant $50 month support order
by Circuit Judge Earl Cox, is be-
lieved by authorities to have been
the climax to thirty-two years of
marital discord between the elderly
carpenter contractor and his wife
and led him to kill her and dismem-
Der her body.
DR.. Arbuckle also intends to ques-
ton Mrs. Mayme Beck, sister of the
slain woman, early next week. She
has been on the verge of a collapse
since she learned Charles D. Evans
had slain her sister and killed him
self when his crime was discovered
by Cincinnati police.
Evans killed his wife at their home
here at 1921 Congress avenue, but
transported the dismembered parts
to Cincinnati where a query about
his 1882 license plates proved his
undoing.

CITY THEATERS
TO STAY OPEN
Reach Truce in Wage Dis
pute; Unions National
Head on Way Here.

Under a truce in operation today,
local theaters will remain open at
least another week while owners and
union employees conduct further ne
gotiations in their wage dispute. De-
cision to remain open was reached
late Wednesday.
International union officials will
come to Indianapolis next week to
take part in conferences, at the in
yitation of Mayor Reginald H. Sulli-
van, who was in telephone commu-
nication with union headquarters.
In Cleveland, where theaters have
been closed for more than two
weeks, a similar plan is being fol-
lowed. The union officials will at
tend meetings in New York with
Cleveland owners before coming to
Indianapolis.
Two long distance telephone con-
verSationS and telegram arranged
for the time extension beyond to-
night, which previously had been
set as the time for closing the
theaters.
The telegram was sent by Sulli-
van to William c. Elliott, interna-
tional president, pointing out fail
ure of previous negotiations and
suggesting the visit of the leaders.
Elliott later called Sullivan and
agreed to assist in the conferences
if the theaters would continue
operation during the time. This
assurance was telephoned to union
headquarters by Sullivan after a
hurried meeting with the local
owners.
Two other attempts by public Of
ficials to forestall the closing had
failed. Last week Sullivan held a
meeting with the disputants and
Wednesday Governor Paul v. Nc
Mutt called owners and employees to
his office for conference.
