Sigrid Onegin
Will Sing Here
Late in Month

Unbelievable. until you have
heard her." is a fitting Introductory
phrase to that noted lieder and
opera singer, Sigrid Onegin, who will
appear in indianapolis late this
month.
Although known in opera for the
portrayal of such distinctly mezzo
and contralto roles as Carmen"
and "Dalila," Nine. Onegin aston
ishes in the next moment by an ex-
hibition of trills and cadenzas given
with the ease of the coloratura born.
In this respect, she is only fol-
lowing the tradition of an earlier
vocal age. When Rossini wrote his
Barber of Seville" he demanded
of the contralto the same vocal
ability that he asked of the So
prano.
In fact, he would be much sur
prised today were he to return to
our mundane sphere to hear that
his famous aria, Una voce POGO ia, -
had been tranSpoSed to a higher
key and given to the coloratura as
her exclusive property.
Nine. Onegin, who is appearing
here Sunday afternoon, Jan. %, at
Englishs, is the fourth concert of
the Martens Concerts, Inc.

Henry Of England, the worlds
most famous lover, had quite a
merry time, for himself, if not for
the parties in question, trying to
keep married to and to keep di-
vorced from his famous six Wives"
The story goes that his first wife
was too respectable for Henry to
bother with, 50 there is as little as
possible in the picture about her.
The second venture Of Henry's
matrimonial inclinations led him
into difficulty with very ambitious
lady who thought Henry was well
enough as a husband, but chose
TO look elsewhere for a lover.
OF course, Henry was Immediate
ly without a companion for the
throne, to say naught of his lonely
nights, and he Immediately singled
out of the royal field lady who
would correspond to some Of the
blends of today, smart enough to
marry but too dumb to live with,
so Henry fired her also.
And so on the merry story runs
with Henry's wives finally tanning
him in the end, SO that he says
My best wife is my worst wife, "
but he couldn't do anything
about it.

Spreads Happiness to Millions"

Spreads Happiness to Millions" !
That's the slogan Of LoeW'S
theater circuit, which is celebrating
its thirtieth anniversary during this
month.
Now it comes to light that this
slogan was originally written by Ar
thur Brisbane as one of a series
suggested to Marcus Loew.
When the slogan was written, it
was for a small group of New York
theaters. Today it virtually has
circled the globe and is trade
mark for Loew theaters in England,
South Africa, and other foreign
countries, in addition to being iden-
titled from coast to coast with the
American chain.
In Indianapolis Loew's Palace
theater has made elaborate plans
to give theater- goers an offering of
entertainment such as never before
has been presented in one month.
The first of these Birthday
Shows" opened last Friday with an
offering of the all-star production
Dinner at Eight" and heading the
request of hundreds of theater-
goers, they have decided to hold it
over for a second week.
The other pictures which will be
presented from the -Goldwyn-
Mayer and United Artists film
studios are: Robert Montgomery
with Madge Evans in Fugitive
Lovers" the inimitable Eddie Can
tor in his fourth annual musical
comedy, Roman Scandals" with
Ruth Fitting and the beautiful sing
ing and dancing Goldwyn girls, and
in order to offer variety they have
selected Laurel and Hardy in their
new full-length feature comedy,
Sons of the Desert" to complete
the program.
In addition to these fine pictures
two stage attractions have been Sc
lected to join in the celebration, the
first of which is the Century of
Progress Revue" a musical pre-
sentation of catchy songs, beauti-
full girls and snappy dance routines,
featuring the heading attractions

foremost playwrights in America to-
day, and is credited with the sue

wrote as a stage play, and which
was adapted to the screen at a later
date.

the life of one of the greatest Grim
inal lawyers in New York City and

cheers his mother with his castles
tumbling about him

CURRENCY CLAIMS
ATTENTION AGAIN
Pound and Mark Reflect
Observation-Disclosures Is
Threatened.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 1.-THE world
is threatened by another period OF
currency instability, and this time 1t
is not the dollar which is the offender.
While attention has been concen-
trated on the fate Of the mark. II has
escaped general notice that, IN terms
of the franc. the pound sterling was
steadily sagging. Wednesday both in
London and In Paris it took less
francs to buy q pound than 1t ever
did before.
It is not pleasant for the British
to see sterling at such heavy dis
count with the franc. But that can
not be helped II it is desired to de.
preciate the pound against the dollar.
II has been contended for Q long
time on the other side that the dol
lar was undervalued in terms OF ster-
ling, and now apparently the British
have decided to let the two seek their
natural levels. Appreciation Of the
franc was logical sequel TO this de-
cision, If it was a decision.
One result was to raise the price
of gold in the London open market
and another is likely to be to add to
the difficulties surrounding interna-
tional trade. What action Washing
ton will take, If any, remains to be
seen.
One moral from the German episode
stands out in all the discussions.
When the Dawes loan was sold in
1924 it was supposed to contain every
safeguard that ingenuity could devise
against default. When the Young
plan issue was floated in 1880, sim
liar precautions were taken.
The truth Of the matter is that
indirect pressure can be brought TO
bear on a recalcitrant foreign govern
ment debtor by the nationals Of other
governments who hold its obligations,
or by their own government for hem.
but there is no way absolutely to force
payment, the provisions Of the debt
agreement to the contrary notwith-
standing
1t is only being fair TO Germany
to admit that the transfer problem is
a genuine one She cannot pay ufl-
less she has the necessary foreign ex-
change.
