Whatever the tone of the ask
ing the question remains a legiti-
mate one. What is there about Wig
mans contribution to an art as an
Gent as man that it should have
struck us as so strange that it
should have aroused such conflict
ing reactions and flaming enthu-
siasms.
Miss Wigman's first appearance in
America with her group is regarded
with interest, because of her own
belief that the future of the group
dance lies in group expression.
solo dancers for the most part
are wasting their days." says Miss
Wigman, because the modern dance
realizes its highest effectiveness
through group action The task of
the solo dancer to project her ideas
and to emotionally affect her au-
dience is almost insuperable."
1t has been Miss Wigmans cho-
geography that won her undying
fame in Europe. From 1925 to 1928
she toured the continent.

The Johnson Dash.
(Boston News Bureau.)

Gen. Johnson flew into and out of Boston in postion,-the blunt and dynamic individuality com ing to the reputedly austere and restraned-yet underneath it the m-blooded-community. He came, saw, spoke and conquered
 The circumstances of that coming were, in ad- dton to that seeming contrast, about dramatical- ly staged as possible. The plane flight, with the dctation of redhot speech aloft in the air to a feminine secretary the dashng whirl in all possible panopy of escort to the speaking place. the equally whirling address without though of any food first, then the winging back to Washington,-it all com ported with the speech made and with the occasion of blue eagle launching hereabouts.
 The substance of that speech, as reported else where, was characteristically Johnsonan as to all our economic and social sins of the recent past and imperative duties of the present, in the ap- pointed ways of common or even universal coopera- tion. That emphasis upon the mobizing of every body especially those small earning and little en- dowed common people whom Lincoln thought of, was put from several angles, including not least the sporting, which just fits so we'll
 The same frankness remained forcefully in evil dence when it driven home by Gen. Johnson that now is at hand the "crux' of the whole endeavor very vtas of the great national effort with an undsguised chance of either success or failure hinging upon the voluntary unintimidated kind and degree of common cooperation

pocketbook will defray all the necessary relief expenditures.
 That of course IS not well founded The Federal Government is doing and will continue to do every thing it can. But it cannot and should not be expected to do it all Each community and each county and State owes it to itself to do its part, and it's part is to exhaust every resource it has for that purpose before turning to the National treasury for financial aid in relieving local distress.
 Administrator Frank Hopkins, head of the Fed eral Relief Administration has lately issued warn ngs to number of States that Federal relief grants will be forthcoming to them unless they also contribute to the of succor The Presi- dents admonition adds to the force of those warnings
 As done last Winter and before that, Juneau and other Alaskan communities and the Territorial Government will have to continue their own relief financing However this Winter where it is needed, direct financial cooperation will be received from the Federal Government

Wheat, Cotton and Relief.
(New York Times.)

When Congress passed resolution making avail able for relief purposes through the Red Cross some 45,000,000 bushels of wheat and 500000 bales of cotton, there misgivingS in metro politan centers Even if the wheat turned into flour and the cotton into coth Congress intended what could the cty-dweller do with them? He accustomed to buy bread, not flour and it many a year since he, his wife, had made clothing at home. Nor could he live bread alone The paramount need was for package of different staple foods that could be cooked on tenement stove.
 How this problem met told in sup pementary report published today by the Gibson Committee. It is impossible to read it without realizing again how little would have been done in this field without cooperation, and how much was actually accomplished by dint of a common effort which can have had few peace-time parallels With the permission of Congress and the aid of the employed themselves, $40O0000 of materials was converted into more than $7,250000 worth of serv- iceable food and clothing, and distributed to the needy of this city, all without a penny of profit to any Bakers and bankers, grocers and truck men, Red Cross workers and "nutritionists" worked together to make this great community undertaking a success It will serve model for future at- tempts at relief in kind.

Another Job for Ickes.
Cincinnati Enquirer)

With his appointment as Czar of the oil n- dustry Secretary Harold L. Ickes takes his place alongside Henry A. Wallace, Secretary of Agricul- ture, dictator in the new regime of controlled competition. Ickes already was far more powerful official than any Secretary of the Interior before him, due to his authority the $500 100000 of public works funds. Now he adds to his powers those of price fixing and regulation of production in the vast petroleum industry.
 Only few years ago the Secretary of the Interior soft job, with jurisdiction over the Indians and geological research. Today it nearly dominates the Cabinet so broad have the powers of the office become Even when he was appointed last March, it is likely that MT Ickes had no idea what change was to come over the office
 To be sure, MT. Ickes will delegate most of his power petroleum to James A. Moffett, formerly of the Standard Oil Company, just as he has dele gated much of his authority public works to Colonel Henry Waite. But the final authority rests with the Secretary of the Interior and there is no probability on the horizon that ultimate control will again revert to the leaders of the oil industry For better worse unimagined powers of control over industry are being handed to political administrators.
