LA TRAVlATA
(The Wandering One)

(The Wandering One)
Opera in three acts by Giuseppe
Verdi. Text taken from the
French by Piave.
The original of the librettO is
the celebrated novel LA Dame
Aux Camehas" by the younger
Dumas.
The scene is laid in and near
Paris. Alfred Germont is passion
ately in love with Violetta Valery,
one of the most frivolous beauties
in Paris. Never having known sim
cere love, she is pleased but warns
the young man ,Jho she is, but ne
loves her all the more and she
finally returns his love.
During an absence of Alfred his
father calls on Violetta, and he
tries to show her that she has de-
stroyed not only his family's but
his sons happiness by suffering
Alfred to unite himself with one
so dishonest. He convinces her and
she. leaves.
Alfred, ignoring the possible
reason for this action, resolves to
take vengeance. He finds her and
publicly insults her, the result be-
ing duel with her present admir-
er, Baron Dauphal.
Violetta, in i'll health, declines
rapidly, and when she hears that
Alfred was victorious in the duel
she revives to some extent. Alfred
hears of her sacrifice, returns to
her and his father forgives her,
but she expires, a modern Magda-
lene, full of repentance and striv-
ing to console her lover and his
equally desolate father.
This opera, which Jared poorly
at first, is now classed among the
works of Verdi that have contrib
uted most to his reputation. Lit
tie can be said for the text, but
1T is redeemed by the music, which
abounds in finest melody.
RIGOLETTO
Opera in three acts by Giuseppe
Verdi. Text by Piave from Victor
Hugo's drama "Le Roi S'Amuse.
The Duke of Mantua, a wild
and debauched youth, covets every
girl or woman he sees and is as
sisted in his escapades by his jes-
ter Rigoletto, an ugly humpbacked
man. He is first seen helping the
Duke in an affair with the wives
of Counts Ceprano and Monter-
one. Both husbands swear ven
geance on Rigoletto and Monter-
one curses him.
Rigoletto's one tender point is
his blind love for his beautiful
daughter Gilda, whom he brings
up carefully, keeping her hidden
from the world and it's wickedness.
The cunning Duke discovers this
and gains her love under an as
sumed name of Gualtier Made.
Gilda is carried off by Ceprano
and two other courtiers, aided by
RigolettO, who believes at the time
that it is the Count Ceprano's
wife. After she has been taken
to the Dukes palace he discovers
her identity, Rigoletto is enrageC
and engages Sparafucile to xii
the Duke. Gilda, who loves the
Duke, pleads with her father.
Sparafucile is waiting at the inn
with his sister, Maddalena, who i
heying an affair with the Duke
Gflda alfred in masculine oar
ments, goes to the inn in place o
the Duke. She is killed and tn,
body is placed in sack and takel
to Rigoletto, who starts to diSpos
of the body, believing it to be tn

the Dukes voice, singing a frivol
Gus tune. He opens the sack an

awful cry he sinks to the floor

Times Calls Struggle
A ssLast Ditch Fight
! Terror Played Down
BY HARRY RAYMOND

NEW YORK.-In an exceedingly
vicious and unabashed manner the
America capitalist press has
launched into campaign aimed at
completely discrediting the heroic
struggles OF the Austrian working
class against the bloody Dollfuss gov
eminent.
The chief aim of the whole capt.
talist controlled press service is to
arouse the American people against
the Austrian workers and rally them
in support of the CORY fascist muir
derers. The words Revolt De-
feated," or their equivalent, could be
found in practically every headline
Of every capitalist paper this morn
ing, at time when the workers we're
fighting bravely against the fascists,
repuIsing them and driving them
back. Even at a time when it was
reported that a section of the gov
eminent troops had joined the work
ers, when the masses were marching

job of helping the Austrian fascists
slaughter thousands of workingmen

ut is a last ditch fight and quite
hopeless" says front-page article
in the New York Times.
This, indeed, is vicious lie. The
struggle of the Austrian workers, the
heroic battles OF the French workers,
the mounting struggles of the work
ers throughout the world against fas-
cis,n and war-these struggles will
never be defeated. There are no last
ditch fights for the working class.

Austrian bourgeoisie:
Banks reported normal business

Developments as a victory for the

today comments in the following
manner on the situation in Austria:
Bloody violence in Austria shows
what might have happened in Italy,
if Mussolini had not taken charge
with his Black Shirts and his castor
Gil, suppressing all differences OF
opinion, and in Germany, II Hitler
had not seized the power"
Here at last we find Brisbane openly
and brazenly marching in the ranks
Of the fascist hangmen.
The worthy editor then discloses a
pious wish which is closest to his
heart: IF England can talk about
initiating Italy, if Germany's intelli-
rent millions, trained in political
thinking since the war Of 1870, can
suddenly subordinate their thinking

leader from Austria. anything may

Long before the demonstration be-

Forcing his way past the police,
Minor declared that the delegation
consisted Of three, and demanded en-

seized Minor by the shoulders. lifted
him off his feet and carried him out
OF the building, while Minor shouted
at the top of his voice: Damn these
LaGuardia fascist police"
Minor continued his protest on the
street. and when the workers who
were circling the Consulate building
heard him shouting, they ceased
marching and surged toward the
building.
Fearful that the demonstrators
would attack them, the police hur-
riedly opened the way and permit
ted Minor to re-enter the building.

together they went M to the Con-

The united front character of the
demonstration was exemplified by
