 He has developed the most pow erful baritone voice on the air as result. Tibbett sings in the show er-bath, he sings while he is dress ing, and during his spare time he sings wherever he may be. In addi- tion, of 'course, he sings for many hours. during rehearsals, during concerts and radio programs, and with the Metropolitan Opera com pany.
 In fact. he sings so much that Stewart Willie, his pianist, has ob- tained miniature piano which he rolls onto the 'set" where Tibbett is making q picture, during mo- ments of relaxation. Fso that the baritone may warble af few notes for fun.

One of the. quickest reactions that radio fame brings can be seen in the prices asked by orchestras for dance engagements. The Casa Lorna outfit, for instance, played here several times a few years ago and the last price they got, if we remember rightly. was $500 for a booking at Hamilton park. Today the same aggregation would ask four or five times as much.
 Some times we have to wonder if it isn't the reputation that the, fans like and not the orchestra. A couple of years ago an orchestra led by Frank LaMarr was barn. storming the states small towns, glad to get bookings. Came a chance in New York at Yoeng's restaurant, a radio wire, and today those who failed to be moved by his music when heard in person ask Say, did you hear Frank La- Marr's band?"
 Anyway, if you're interested, here are what some radio bands want for appearing in Waterbury:

The Senate already has passed the

His reason for fighting extradition,
Factor said, was that If he were con-
victed In England, even II he were
freed on probation, immigration laws
would prevent his return to America
and his family. Factor is a subject
Of Great Britain.
Jail can't be much worse than
what I've undergone in this country

he was kidnapped.

Factor said. "They abused me for IL

That's the reason I prosecuted
them. If they had been decent to me,
I would have arranged for a $4,000

CHICAGO, March 14-Delegates
representing about $4,000 Midwest
live stock producers yesterday adopted
a resolution favoring open COMPETE
tive marketing" under Federal super
vision.
Their action was taken at the an
nual meeting of the Chicago Pro-
ducers' Commission Association after
speakers asserted direct packer pur-
chases from farmers constituted a
backward step in marketing as viewed
from the cooperative standpoint.
Earl Smith. president of the I'LL
nois Agricultural Association, said
huge buying by packers direct from
the farms helped depress prices at
terminal markets. He also defended
the Federal pig-and-sow-slaughtering
program of last Fall.
Association officials said it had han
died 10000 carloads Of live stock last
year with a value of more than S16,-
