Suppose we were to shift the
burden from industry to idleness.
An idle acre almost certainly
means idle labor. In Philadelphia,
the home city of Henry George
who wrote that great book, "Pro-
gress and Poverty" Professor
Tugwell again proclaims the gospel
of the Single Tax, doctrine that
the logic of events will put into
practice long after the arguments
of the Single Takers" have been
laughed off. The memorable law
of economics does not argue. 1t
merely tells you. And, you being
"free, white and twenty-one" can
do as you please. That is, you
, can conform to the law-or you
can perish.

Progress and Poverty" was
written in the late seventies of the
past century. We read it as a
twenty-cent "Seaside Librs~y" is

sentence, it says that the value
added to land, occupied or unoc.
cupied, by the presence of COM
rinuiiity should be the source from
which the expenses of the COM
munity are financed; and that it
would be unnecessary to take a
cent Of the earnings of any man
for community expense, If we did
not allow the values created by the
community to be appropriated by

munity very hard up, indeed.
OF course the taxation of idle

The show which presently unrolled
inside the big theater, and kept on
unrolling, that first night, until half
after IL, was worthy of the occa-
sion. II was big, bright-at least to
the eye-swift, it had style. Just
what constitutes "style" in such mat
ters isn't easy to define offhand, but
here it was, and no doubt of it. Keep
Moving" which had appeared the
week before, was without it. Life
Begins at Eight Forty" had it. And
so now We may all rest easier and
await what comes next.
OF the various elements which go
to make up the new Shubert circus,
Bert Lahr is, we should say, altogether
the most important single item. Mr.
Lahr works hard, and always to good
effect. He has that extraordinary
face, of course-the enormous mouth,
the close-set eyes, which seem to get
crossed or closer together at will; the
curious, half-inarticulate and somehow
funny sounds; the poise, punch and
authority. But he works with more
variety and subtlety than on some
earlier occasions. He is burleSque
Britisher, spooflng the sort of English
man you might find in Noel Coward
or Frederick Lonsdale play; a bur-
lesQue-Stage Frenchman, in evening
clothes, tossing off "C'est la Vie" on
the banks of the Seine; he even sings.
And every time Mr.. Lahr comes on,
and he keeps coming throughout the
long evening. things look up and get
amusing again.
Then there is Miss Luella Gear, with
her very likable personality, pleasant
voice, and several turns in which she
injects bit of acid into the general
procession of blazing, but more or less
routine, song -and-d dance numbers. Miss
Gear sstirizes the lower-ballets of the
big film theaters in song entitled
MY Paramount-Publix- Roxy Rose. "
In the song Miss Gear Is lady with
good voice who always has to conceal
herself as a poppy, pansy or geranium.
She is biting as the Radio Announc-
er's Bride poor girl who had to
marry one of the kings of the air; as
the ong-Suffering wife Of window
dresser, who keeps on dressing win
dows even with the clothes he takes
off when he goes to bed. And she
sings burlesque song to end all torch
songs, entitled II Couldn't Hold My
Man"
Miss Frances williams has her name
in Just as big letters as Miss Gear on
the program, but is less nourishing.
Miss williams sing distressingly, al
though she has reputation as blues
singer, and she constantly over-acts.
She presses hard all the time and has
an air of overconfidence which puts
the spectators back up. One should
be less heavy-handed in such matters.
There are several members Of the
large cast who know this value Of
understatement. There is Jack Starr,
for instance, swallowing cigarette
and peacefully blowing clouds OF smoke
out of his mouth while he does hand
springs and all sorts of acrobatics,
| And there is Robert Wildhack, who
coming out in cap and gown and with
an academic accent, gives burlesque

are involved in the crime, including
Robert Barrat, the scientist; Margaret

them are finally eliminated by another
murder and an attempt.
