TINE Lisa Gardiner Dancers, who
appeared in their Spring recital
last evening at the Roosevelt
i High School under the auspices
of the Community Center De-
partment, gave a colorful entertain
ment that stepped out of the category
of student recital and approached a
professional performance. The work
done by the dancers, from the tiny
Crete Atkin to the most advanced
pupil, was finished in every detail and
a splendid credit to the instruction they
had received.
The details Of the presentation were
also carefully thought out, the cos
tunes especially being elaborate and
well designed. Lighting effects were
accentuate the colors of the costumes
and added materially to the artistic
whole. The figure groupings were poetic
and visualiZed in an expressive manner
the musical numbers. This was par
ticularly true of the two Debussy num-
bers, "Arabesque" and Clair de Lune," !"
where the initial postures in themselves
were an excellent perturbation of the
idea which inspired the composition.
These same two numbers demonstrated
the well developed arm technic of the
dancers whose clever use Of long. undu-
lating movements gave delicate form to
the evanescent melodies of Debussy.
No attempt was made in the program
to approach the ultra modern dance
Interpretation. Nearly all the dancing
was done on the toes, and here and
there the real ballet costume added the
airy grace that rarely is attained in
the modern trend of realistic dance in
depreciation. Lisa Gardiner danced a
Chopin waltz in such a custume with a
lightness and elegance that was the
poetry of motion itself Two variations,
one danced by Charlotte Walton to the
music of Tschaikowsky and the other
by Kathleen Piazza to the music of
Drigo, were well executed exhibitions
of this type of dancing.
A Spanish group introduced the sell
dom seen "Zambra." a dance of the
Spanish Moors, excellently interpreted
by Eda Vomachka to the tinkling ac-
compartment of tiny cimbals on her
fingers Other dances In this group
were the "farruca," danced by Fills
Speich, DANA de la Capa" by Chris
tine Stewart and he"Playera," danced
by Miss Gardiner in long-trained Span
ish costume. A concerted number, the
"Cordova," added Betty Yoder, Helen
Roberts, Alice Louise Hunter, Esther
Whited and Katherine De Laney to the
group.
A difficult Caucasian dance was given
with characteristic fire by Frances
Rands, and in a Russian gypsy num-
Der Alice Louise Hunter used hand

Quoting the town government all
the same.
The three officials not only
serve as selectmen but fulfill the
functions also of the Board of
Public welfare and the registrars
of voters.
They were convicted many
months ago of having unlawfully
left off the voting list the names
of three persons, husband, wife
and daughter, thus depriving
them of their voting rights. They
lost their appeal, and a Superior
Court judge, in spite of a petition
in ther behalf signed by 180
registered voters of the town.
sentenced them to three months
in the county house of correction.
Having entered the Jail, the
question arose whether or not the
town had a government. The
Attorney General of the State
ruled that legislation provided for
emergency government in case of
death, vacancy or removal, but
that no law dealt with case of
this kind.
Therefore the town officers
have been removed to the house
of correction and the sheriff has
adopted a schedule of rules for
their receiving visitors and doing

BRUNT Of LOAD
NOWFALLSON
TAXPAYERS
Private Charity Disappearing
From Picture; States Told
To Increase Efforts
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
America is spending more than
$4,000 100000 a year for unem-
ployment relief.
A reliable estimate Of the
enormous outlay by Federal,
State and local governments and
private charity was made possible
through research by experts OF
the new Federal Emergency Re
lief Administration.
Investigation of the relief prob
lem in all parts of the country
has revealed many changes, in
cluding the virtual disappearance
of private charity as substantial
factor in caring for the jobless.
Burden on Taxpayer
With the burden being rapidly
transferred to public bodies. The
stake of the taxpayer in return
ing prosperity is becoming
greater each day. Every job, it
is estimated, removes at least
three persons from relief rolls.
During the first six months OF
the year, research experts found,
Uncle Sam was the greatest factor
in relieving the jobless. Unless
the States, counties, and cities
increase their funds for unem.
ployment relief, it is expected
that renewed demands will be
made upon Congress for additional
Federal funds.
Unnder the present emergency
relief law, States are entitled to
one Federal dollar for each three
spent by public bodies in the
State.
With the Federal Government
spending S68,O99,198 on this basis
during the first quarter of the
year, an expenditure by the States
and local governments OF more
than $204 100000 is indicated.
Percentage Runs Less
Actually, however, the states
and subdivisions spent only 33
to 40 per cent of this amount, ex-
perts of the Administration say.
The remainder was made up by
Federal loans from the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation,
which may never be repaid, and
grants from the discretionary
Federal fund.
With reports incomplete, it is
estimated the Federal Govern
ment will be required to give the
States and local governments a
like amount for the second quar-
ter.
Because a breakdown in relief
efforts is threatened unless the
States and cities provide addi-
tional funds, the Federal relief
administration has issued warn
ings that Federal funds will be
withheld unless there is evidence
of real cooperation.
