Ballet Russo
Delightful
BY CHARLES GENTRY

THE BALLET Russo DE
MONTE CARLO danced blithcly
back into town last night 10 de-
light a capacity audience in Ma
sonic Auditorium
This program In the series OF
three evening performances was
the first event IN the Masonic
Auditorium concert series for the
season and a most pleasing one
IL was.
Although there is a regrettablc
absence OF stars. the general corps
de ballet is better than II was
last year. Fredric Franklin. in
jured this past summer. and Doro-
thy Etheridge are among the
missing. which puts a decided
handicap on a production like
Agnes dc Miles "Rodeo.' al
though il was well done last night.
The troupe opened with a new
offering here. the Dance Con-
Certo," an abstract ballet set to
Igor StavinSky's score. This atonal
composition lends itself perfectly
10 a Neo-clasSic ballet and the
uniformity Of the dance pattern
was eXpertly executed.
A NEW OFFERING
The Dance Concerto" marked
the only appearance of Alexandra
DaniloVa for the evening and
though she made a lovely figure,
particularly in the pas de deuX
with Leon Danielian, who re-
places Franklin. she didn't even
seem quite up 10 par.
or course, even a goddess can't
be on toes all the time, but
Danilova seemed 10 be a little
unable TO cope with the pseudo
modern line of George Malan-
chimes choreography.
''Rodeo," the second presenta-
tion is. of course, one of our
faVorite American balletS. It's
COPELAND music based on folk song,
its hunor and general earthly
color make it invariably great
favorite, no matter who dances il.
Despite the talents of Herbert
Bliss. who danced the role with
great flair. "Rodeo" did. however,
feel the lack of Franklin as the
Roper, and Vida Brown mugged
a little too much through the part
of cowgirl. If you stopped to recall
either Rudenko or Etheridge in
her spot.
MELODIC INTRODUCTION
The Bluebird." which is one OF
the standard advertisements. like
Spectre de la Rose" proved a
delightful introduction for Natha-
lie KrassoVska, who returned
shortly to dance the role Of the
glove seller in Cate Parisienne.n
a part programmed for Nine.
Danilova.
Perhaps Krassovska has not the
finesse of Danilova, but she brings
a fresh and vital quality 10 the
part and her performance last
night, especially in the pas de
deux with Talin, was exquisite.
Although Yurek Lazowski is no
Massine when it comes to the
Baron, he did an excellent job and
both Pauline Goddard and Ruth
Hickman turned out TO be grace
full additions 10 the roster of new
ballerinas.

N. G.. SURVEY WILL
BE PUBLISHED SOON

Raleigh - Reports of surveys
of North Cardinals deposits of
mica, feldspar, and kaolin "a CO.
operative project by the state
and the United States Geologi-
cal survey, are almost ready for
publication and distribution, &C.
cording to DR.. Jasper L. Stuckey,
state geologist. These reports, of
which four are now in stages of
near-completion, are an out
growth of the vital role mica is
playing in mechanical warfare.
This state today produces more
than 70 per cent of our domestic
mica. Formerly mica was i'm
ported from India where it was
produced and from which it was
transported more cheaply than
possible to mine here. The war
stopped that supply.

King Victor Emanuele, striving
20 retain his throne in the face OF
vigorous opposition, called on the
Italian people to rally around
MN and forget past political diff
ferences.
In a New Years appeal, he
said:
In the sacred name of Italy, I

P Partnership Plan For Peace
Is Urged By British Leader

New York - Richard Law,
British minister of state, said this
week that the United Nations
can effect a lasting peace by en-
tering it as it entered the war,
ION a basis of partnership-to
benefit both each other and our
selves"
In an address prepared for de-
livery from London and broad
cast over the Blue network dur
ing a Metropolitan Opera Victory
rally; Law said that IF the Uni
ted Nations stay united we will
get lasting peace; if they do
not, we shall not
Peace" he said, docs not real
ly depend on statesmen. Mos
cow, Tehran, Cairo - they were
very important. 1t is terribly i'm
portant that our Governments
should understand one another,
and trust one another.
"But it is even more impor-
tant that we, the ordinary citi-
zens of the United Nations, should
understand one another"
The British minister of state
asserted that partnership was the
key in building the peace.
''But partnership does not NEAR
just you and u.s." he continued
1T does not even mean the great
powers one reason we are
fighting this war is because the
great powers fell apart after the
last war.
'But peace cannot be kept by
the great powers alone peace

upon France as it does on Great
Britain. It depends as much up.

slovakia as it does upon China OF
Russia or the United States.
wherever we happen to be
living-in Europe, in Asia, ir
America, we all want the same
thing. And it is not much. We
want peace and work and a de.

LESS GASOLINE FOR
MOTORISTS PREDICTED

Washington - With the wars
most extensive military opera
tons scheduled for 1914, the ma
tons motorists face the prospect
of a new year with less gasoline
than ever before.
Petroleum administration Of
ficials see no possibility of in
creasing currently low allotments
for civilians. Their most optim-
istic prediction is that there will
be no cut during the first three
months of the year."
Over all hangs the ever-present
possibility of emergency curtail-
ment of home front driving to
meet military demands for the
expected Allied invasion of Eu-
rope. Officials, believe however,
there will be no recurrence of the
emergency ban on pleasure driv-
ing and stiff ration cuts that fol-
lowed the invasion of North At
RIGA in 1912.

SAYS EXPENSES ARE
NOW UP 3.5 PERCENT

Washington - The Bureau Of
Labor Statistics said this week
that the cost of living rose 3.5
per cent in 1943-but the jump
was the smallest since 1910.
It said that increased food and
clothing prices caused the slack
ened upward trend, which COM
pared with increases of one per
cent in 1910, 10 per cent in 1943
and nine per cent in 1912.
Secretary of Labor Frances Per
kins, in commenting upon the

NEW COPPER PENNIES
NOW BEING MINTED

Washington - Copper pennies
started rolling from three govern
ment minis this week and will be
in the hands of the public in a
week or two to replace the un-
popular zinc coated steel pen
MES.
Minting of the zinc pennies
ceased the first of the week. The
penny-shortage continues, how
ever, and the demand for pen
MES caused largely by odd OPA
ceiling prices continues to strain

War bonds are today an attrac-
tive investment. They are the SAL
est known, and they offer very
satisfactory interest yield. They
can be cashed quickly and easily
if necessary.
Helps Control Initiation
Their purchase helps control In
flation. 1t absorbs a part of tha
nations surplus purchasing powes
and reduces the upward pressure
on prices.
Success Of the Sixth War Loan
Drive will serve as a two-edged
sword against our enemies. 1t wiz

our forces will hurl against the foe.
1t will also act rs a psychological
weapon to weaken their resistance.
The one hope of the German and
Japanese war lords is that Amer
lea may tire, that we may count
the cost of complete victory and
shrink from it. Goebbels and To1o
watch US with eagle eye for signs
of wavering. Think how they would
be encouraged il, after over-sub-
scribing five previous drives, We
should falter on the sixth! How
eagerly they would relay that NJ
formation TO their people! And
how skillfully would they use it TO
bolster the morale and fortify the
tenacity of their fighting forceL
Determined to Crush Tyranny
On the other hand, overwhelming
success of the drive would put fear

be done, a job that will require
much more time, as well as more
men and materiel than we now
have in the Pacific.
Our achievements out here have
put us where we can, for the
first time, commence hitting Japan
where it hurts. We must not slack
en- now, we must not assume the
war is won. We must hit harder
and harder and faster all the
time. We, of the 37th Division,
will join our fellow Buckeyes in
helping put the Sixth War Bond
Drive over the top. We realize
from first-hand experience how
important those purchases are to
victory in the battlefield. We
know that victory in this drive
will help speed the day of peace
and of our Homecoming.
/ urge you to support the Sixth
War Bond Drive to the full. In
buying bonds you help your eoun-

and you help yourself. Few con-
tributions you are asked to make
for the war are so simple, and yet
so vital to our success.

OHIO TO HONOR OWN 37TH DIVISION IN
COST OF WAR
MUST BE NET
By PERRY l.. GREEN
President. Ohio Farm Bureau

The war dragS on and on. And
the cost-in lives in suffering, and
in treasure-col.tinues to mount.
When the end may be, no one
knows, but we al hope and pray
that it may come soon.
The cost of this gigantic conflict
in blood and tears is a staggering
one. Yet those called upon to pay
it do so without stint They know
that the peace and freedom of the
whole world for centuries to come
may depend on their sacrifice. So
they make it without flinching.
Compared with this cost in death
and sorrow, how paltry seems the
price in dollars and cents. Huge
though it is, the sum of money ex-
pended in destruction is, by com-
parison, an easy cost 10 pay.
Shoulder Part of Burden :
The people of the United States
are now launching their Sixth War
Loan Drive. 1t rives every one of
us an opportunity TO shoulder >
part of the burden, and help bring
the war more quickly to trium-
phant close.
The farmers of the nation have
done prodigious job Of production
to feed our armed forces, our civil-
ian population ard our allies. They
have also led the cities in the pug

MAJ. GEN. ROBERT S. BEIGHTLER
COMMANDER OF THE 9th
The States Sixth War Loan Campaign
Must Succeed, Gen. BeightIer Says

Ohio has led the nation in all
five War Bond drives held thus
far. In the last drive your sons
in the 37th Division oversubscribed
their War Bond quota by 200 per
cent. This shows that the old
Buckeye spirit, and the fine spirit
of Americanism that fills all
Ohioans, go on wherever we
might happen to be. Our record at
home and this record overseas are
accomplishments in which all of
us may take justifiable pride.
The Sixth War Bond Drive in
Ohio is another challenge that we
must meet and overcome. 1t is no
less important to the whole pic
ture of our war effort than the
winning of battles. 1t is one vic
tory that can be achieved on the
home-front. 1t is the kind of vic
tory we must win If Ohio's fight
ing men all over the world are to
continue to capture the laurels
they have been winning in every
theater of battle.
"War Is Far From Won
No one is more aware of this
than we who fight the Jap. Even
though we are hitting fast and
hard in the Pacific, we know the
war is far from won. We know
