Of course, I don’t mean to say that democracy isn’t all right, if you go in for that sort of thing; but what I do say is that democracy is a bit off color if it means that the upper classes and the middle | classes have to be awfully civil and nice, and then be bullied | and insulted! | “It’s slavery, that’s what it is, slavery of the best and | There have been the histor: |tion regulations: First, arred all Asiatics ex- | [cept Japanese | | Second, we negotiated a Gentle- | |men's Agreement to bar Japanese laborers; but this agreement prov- ffectual, i Third, we limited immigration | from each non-Asiatic country to per cent of that country’s nationals | four steps in| of America’s immigra present in the United States in 1919. | Fourth, we now discriminate TON among non-Asiatic countries, giv- HE'S Ji ing a preference to those countries } | Whose nationals lave proved them selves the most capable of adjus!- jing themselves to the Amer scheme of thin What we are moving to 8, rds i highest elements in the country.” He bases his judgment mainly on his observations in | New York City. The evil is at its worst there, as every sitor knows; but it exists in every other large city and some of the small one It is always noticeable at resorts | much frequented by traveler It is found to a distressing degree on railroads and in theaters Just why Americans engaged in personal public service of any kind should feel themselves obliged to lord it over their patrons, and why the patrons should stand being lorded | over, are mysteries too deep for foreigners. Abroad, it is generally considered that a servitor has a special obligation | ‘to be decent to those whom he serves. There is nothing | about that attitude inconsistent with democracy. As an indignant French tourist once remarked, when treated rudely by a railroad conductor: | “Being courteous is metely a part of that man’s job. It is all right for him to feel himself ‘as good as I am,’ and perhaps he is. But if I were in his place and he in mine, I would answer questions courteously.” " Laas i | -WHEN WE SEE BY RADIO t Old P. T. Barnum must have turned over in his grave the | other night when a dress rehearsal of one of the big circuses | was’ broadcast by radio. Not that the show wasn’t any good. ' ‘The circus itself was as good as ever — they average about the :ame, year after year. But the broadcasting was disappointing, for the very simple reason that the circus is an “eye show.” It appeals by glitter and swift movement and rapid changes. We never realized how little there is in a circus, appealing to the ear, until we picked it up by radio. Hearing a circus that you can’t see is like eating a meal without a sense of smell. Women’s voices do not brow cast as clearly and appea!- ingly as men’s. Probably this is because a considerable part of the charm of a woman’s voice is in seeing the singer. Her looks and her voice may be charming individually and separ- ately, but we are accustomed to a blended harmony of the two. When the singer is invisible and her voice suffering by mechanical reproduction, something is lacking, Maybe this is also true of male voices. But the audience is not accustomed to enjoy the personal beauty of male singers as a necessary Siamese Twin of their vocal work. So ampging tion is not strained when listening to male voices by radio. The appeal of singing, acting and other theatricals is two ways —by eye and by ear. When there is an intellectual as well as an emotional appeal, there’s apt to be scant audience. The appeal to the eye is several times more vital than the | appeal to the ear. This has been demonstrated by the suce of the silent form of entertainment, movies, though even in this field the effect is enriched by skillful orchestral aid. But radio, now appealing strictly to the ear, faces a more difficult problem. Radio wil! not be all-round satisfactory until the radio bug is able to see as well as hear the enter- tainers. The inventors are hot on the trail now. It probably will not be many years until the radio bug will have an attach- ment by which he will see what he is hearing. Radio has eliminated space as far as hearing is concerned, and the chances are that it will also eliminate distance in the matter of eyesight. A fascinating prospect, even for the doubters. — By | Albert Apple.
