a burden to the small business man was voiced by Senator Reed, repn, Penna, last night. Senate progress sives, including Senator Borah, repn, Ida, and Senator Nye, repn, N. D., already have announced they will fight for an "anti-monopoly" amendment to the MIRA act.
 The reaction in the MIRA was an Borah that they serve on board tor Hugh S. Johnson to Nye and invitation by Recovery Administra- to hear complaints. Both declined. Nye suggested congress should ap- point the members of such con- tact board. Borah was understood to feel he was Tn too great dis agreement with MIRA officials over antitrust matters to serve.
 House leaders said that from their conversations with returning members. they were convinced that the heavily democratic house will back President Roosevelt's pro- gram to the limit the coming ses- sion. Assertions that the presi- dents popularity was "undimmed" in their districts came from nearly all the returning democratic mem bers. Republicans avoided discuss ing publicly the feeling toward the president back home but ham, mered at inequities of various re- covery plans.
 Indicative of the trend mot to rock the boat was refusal of the foremost soldiers bonus sponsors in the house to revive that contro. versial proposal this session unless they are assured of backing by the 1eaderhip. Representative Patman and Representative Rankin, dem, Mississippi, both indicated they would not attempt the drive for the 42,000, 100000 payment other wise.

GROUP HOSPITAL
CARE TO Be URGED
Plan Will Be Discussed by
Homer Wickenden at
Meeting Tomorrow.

Group disqualification will be dis
cussed by Homer Wickenden, general
director Of the United Hospital Fund
of New York City, tomorrow at 1890
o'clock at the Y. W. c. A., under the
auspices of the Hospital Administra-
ton Committee of the Washington
Council of Social Agencies.
Commenting on the situation facing
the hospitals OF today, DR.. S. B. Rags
dale, superintendent of Columbia Hos
pital chairman of the committee, said:
THE present economic conditions
are creating a tremendous problem for
both the average person in need of
hospital care and the hospital which
is called upon to supply such care.
Group disqualification Is an idea that
aims at a solution of this problem.
The average person is almost wholly
unprepared for the emergency created
by serious illness which. as rule, has
reduced or eliminated his earning
power while other expenses have been
increased. At a time when he needs
hospital care most he is usually least
able to pay for it.
"It is estimated that under the group
plan a fee somewhere between SO and
S14 a year would furnish the member
of such group with all average hospital
needs. In Dallas, Tex, at an irstitu-
ton where the plan. has been in sue
cessful operation for over three years,
a payment of So per subscriber has
covered all costs CT operation of the
plan and has worked to the benefit of
the patient and the hospital Each
subscriber of 50 year has been en-
titled to receive, if necessary, hospitali-
cation not to exceed 81 days"

~ Michael now dropped to his
chair; his knees had gone
back on him. He ran a shaking hand
across his brow; she was alive-or she
had been.
For a moment he closed his eyes.
When he opened them he said, very
levelly, quietly, when did you hear
from her?"
Early in December" Arch stated,
"and I happen to remember that, be-
cause you see, it was that day Mrs. Van
Dusen had the dinner at Pierre's
and"
Michael had not been able to cut this
short because he couldn't speak; he had
been trying to moisten dry lips with
an equally dry tongue and to move lips
from paralysis to some f1exibility.
What did she write you?" Michael
gasped.
We'll, she wrote me, first of, that
she'd been warned that she was in dan
ger and that those people, gangsters, I
guess, who killed her mother and that
maid and killroy, were after her. and
she was calling herself Carrie Jones and
working for a woman named Meens.
And then she asked me to come to get
her-and can you beat that for nerve?
You know, as things were, couldn't do
that, and wouldn't you think just any
body would have seen that? Anyway.
I wrote her that I was really surprised
that she had the nerve to write me

Five minutes later girl at desk

CARMEN. PRESENTED.

RIZET'S Carmen" was presented in
- Italian last night at the Audi
torium by the Chicago Opera CO. 1t
was a performance of ups and downs
musically held together by the efforts
of the conductor, Gabrielle Simeoni, to
whom should go the entire credit of
the evening. With an orchestra unused
to .operatic playing, young singers dazed
by footlights and experienced principals
who were not sure of their music, he
managed to hold every one together
and give a performance that moved
along with spirit.
Putting on opera as it was done last
night does not help in creating love
for it or a desire to support 1t. There
is no reason why one should be expected
to listen to a performance that has not
been sufficiently rehc carsed and to singers
who have not been properly trained as
to what they are to do with themselves
en- the stage The carelessness of those
in power and who know better is the
reason smaller attempts at grand opera
seldom survive.
The title role was taken by Rosita
Fordieri She has voice cf fine quail

The role Of Micaela was taken by

excellent voice, and she sang the aria
with taste. arousing the first genuine
applause Of the evening. AS soon as
she is at ease as regards her stage de-

COMMENT ON
VALLEY CANAL

/ Nationwide publicity for Imper-
ial Valley resulted from the appro-
priation for the All-American can
al according to numerous newspa-
per clippings received by Robert
Hays, secretary manager of the Ell
Centre Chamber of Commerce.
incidentally, Hays points out,
there was indirect publicity in it
for the Imperial Valley Press, prac-
tically all of the clippings carrying
the somewhat erroneous statement
1.-THE Ell Centre afternoon paper
published the first extra ever is
sued in the valley" The Press
has issued previous extras but new
er one which gave such satisfaction
as the one on October oath did.
"Desert To Be Made Into Edeno,
is the heading of the story on the
appropriation carried (no less) in
the Miami, Florida News. For a
Florida paper to admit that Eden
is anywhere outside of that state
is a wonderful tribute, according
to Secretary Hays and many will
agree with him.

the head-Writer was mild about it
when he used the word "stir'.
/, Shrieking whistles in Ell Centro,
Holtville and Calexico are record
ed by the Bremen, Georgia Gate
way, and while that may be stretch
ing it somewhat, there were a few
whistles at that.
"Imperial Valley Folk Celebrate -,
is the way the Minneapolis Tribune
headed its story, pointing out that
"desert sands that never grow cold
under an Imperial Valley sun, may
soon bloom with the fertility of an
Iowa cornfield' as a result of the
appropriation.
The Villa Rica, Georgia Breeze
records that "come wept with hap
piness' at the good news.
There had to be at least one
somewhat sour note in the bunch
of clippings and strangely enough
it had to come from Boston Post
as follows: "T'he impromptu eel
ebration in the Imperial Valley of
California yesterday when news
was received that the government
will spend $6,O00,000 on an 80 mile
canal to irrigate desert land, must
have been perpleXing to many
newspaper readers in the east.
Western farmers, whether they
raise grain or vegetables or fruit.
have insisted so strenuously that
there is no money in it, that their
joy over an, opportunity to lose
more money is difficult to under
stand. The shrieking sirens and
the shouting crowds seem to have
been real. About the only infer
ence that can be drawn from the
scene is that the plight of Califor-
mia farmers is not quite so terri
BILE as they have claimed'.
