Cremote Body,
Test Proves
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, May 29.-The States
attorneys office reported yesterday
cremation tests made in an apart
ment house furnace showed the
body of Mrs. Rose Michaelis could
have been reduced to ashes in three
hours.
Blair Varnes, assistant States at
torney, gave a preliminary report
on a study made in South Side
building, preparatory to the prose-
cution of Joseph Nischt, 30-year-
old janitor, on charge of murder
ing Mrs. Michaelis, a neighbor.
The prosecutor said Nischt "con-
fessed" that he stuffed the woman's
body into the firebox but later re-
pudiated his statement. Intensive
search of the ashes uncovered no
trace Of the woman,s body.
To determine whether the coal
furnace could generate enough heat
to cremate q human corpse, police
burned a skeleton and tissue IN the
heating system last week. Mr..
Varnes said they were reduced to
dust after three hours.
Mr.. Varnes said tests to estab-
lish whether the remaining ashes
and dust could be identified as orig
mating in human bones had not
been completed.

Anderson Will Seek
More Meat by Better
Output, Distribution
Py the Associated Pres.

Ey the Associated Press.
The man who will become the Ma
tion,s food boss plans to make more
meat available to average Amer
leans through increased produc-
tion and better distribution.
Under the present distribution
system a civilian must eat in res
taurants part of the time IF he ex-
poets to get his share" Represent
ative Anderson, Democrat, of New
Mexico said last night in a Blue
Network interview.
This, he said, tends to make it
a rich mans war, which many of
us do not like" Nh Anderson, who
will become Secretary of Agriculture
and war food administrator July !,
said he planned to change this by:
Abundant production, which is
the greatest weapon in the war
against black market operations;
secondly, better channeling of
what meat we have so that more
OF it goes to the grocery store where
you and can buy it."

said food production this year will
be almost on the same level as that
OF 1914, when it was IS per cent
above prewar years He added that
beef production is at record peak,
and pork, of little from 1914,
Is far above prewar output.
He attributed bare meat coun-
ters to a combination of higher
civilian demand, requirements of the
armed forces and foreign commit
ments.
Estimating the civilian demand at
ITO pounds a year against a supply
OF lis pounds, Mr.. Anderson said
only about so of the lis pounds
can come from red ration points.
'The rest you are supposed to
make up in restaurants" he said.
Asked If there is "a specific way
we can get better channeling to
the grocery store" Mr.. Anderson re-
piled:
"OPA thinks so and I think So
1 believe its recent program for
allotments to sections of the coun-

full will help the situation greatly"

The San Carlo Opera Co. started
of its weeks engagement at the
National Theater last night with a
performance Of Bizet's Carmen"
that was outstanding and thor
oughly enjoyed by q capacity au-
dience. With all the difficulties at
tendant on producing opera during
wartimes, Fortune Gallo, general d.
rector, and his stage manager,
Mario Vale. are to be congratulated
on being able to present familiar
work with a fresh interest, spirited
cast and rich setting. In many re-
spects, the performance last night
surpassed those in the past, for
many incidentals were perfected and
the whole as SumptuouSly staged as
a touring company could manage.
Furthermore. Mr.. Gallo has gath
cred together talented singers who
have retained or not yet abandoned
their strivings toward the best and
this spirit kept the interest to high
point the entire evening. 1t was not
confined to the principals alone, for
the chorus took its part seriously
and put in many individual touches
that rounded out the action. It
sang well also under the youth
full conductor Nicholas Rescigno's
watchful care, who never allowed
the ensemble to become blurred even
though one might wish for more
stirring tempt at times.
Margery Mayer was heard in the
name part, disclosing a fine appre-
citation OF the role that bids fair
to rank as one of the best. She
has rich but not too darkly hued
voice, excellently trained, and great
histrionic skin that is based on her
keen feeling for the text. She was
alluring but not vamperish and
more truly Of the environment rath-
er than too sophisticated and arti-
flcial. The wealth of detail she
brought to her opening scene in
particular showed her keen analysis
Of the character. which was carried
out logically to the end. Her sing
ing of the two arias, the "Habanera"
and the "Seguidilla," was splendid,
the former especially containing
great variety excellently enacted.
Attractive in appearance and beau
tifully costumed, she brought a dis
tinct individuality to the part.
She was ably seconded in her
performance by Sidney Rayner as

the best tenors Of the day. He is

Mr.. Hoover said, "the carefree

it is a reasonable guess that all boys
are again confronted with the en-
joyable problem Of how to spend
their leisure time pleasurably and
intelligently. Those young fellows
who are nonswimmers might we'll

The victorious armed forces Of
the United States, he added, spend
many long hours and large sums of
money to teach swimming to our
fighting men. In combat, ability to
swim is often the difference between
dying and surviving, he said.
"At home" Mr.. Hoover concluded,
mot knowing how to swim can also
result in serious consequences. A
day at the beach or a boat ride can
be turned from an occasion of great
fun to one Of grim tragedy. All
youngsters should swim and the
boys of the District and Metropoli-

in the aria, lie Fleur que tu m'avais

exciting quality that formed dra-

The story of the opera gained
credibility through the casting OF
Carlo Moreln as Escamillo, for
he is an fine picture of toreador
as could be desired. He is virile and
suave in his acting and possesses
a voice of power and vibrant timbre.
With the three main characters so
we'll visualized, the opera took on
a more absorbing interest.
The shorter roles were also taken
by skilled artists. William Wilder
man focused attention on the char
acter of Zuniga by many effects he

Henderson's lovely voice Is splen-
