NEW YORK, Dec. 8.—Profanity is having its fling in the American theater.

Now they make characters life-like. They picture the dregs of humanity as they are, as they do the so-called aristocracy. Because an Italian immigrant picks up the slang and profanity more readily than any- thing else and uses it, having no idea Sidney Howard in our play as ex- pressing himeelf that way.

Native Indians Cause Grief To Their “Father” WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—({By The Associated Press.}—Indians who for- sake humdrum pursuits of the soil for the colorful but uncertain life of wild west show troupers and Navajo youngsters who are too busy herding sheep to acquire learning, these are but a few of the problems Commissioner Charles H. Burke has to cope with as “father” to 340,000 Indians in 24 states who are under federal guardianship. Commissioner Burke in his annual report today declares that if depart- ment.sanction were given to all re- quests for Indians, from a few dozen to several hundred, “to add much of their time with nothing at home of any value when they re- turned.” Showmen, the report continued, “offer constant inducements. to the {ndians to leave their homes and ‘ocal means of support for pleasur- able attractions of various kinds that usually bring them little or .a|_ oymakers Busy- into admiration for the very courage behind them. ‘The ‘Processional, giving an American's interpretation of life is to be the greatest success —or the greatest fal'ure—the guild ‘has produced—depending on the mood of the audience. It will be a tremendous, courageous production. If the audience accepts it, the the- ater will be packed for months. If it doesn't take to the startling sensa- tion behind the play, the guild will be dollars behind itself. “There's one big thing we try to forget,” Mr. Bennett continued. “That is the epee ending rule that used to govern plays.

A producer hadn’t the courage to offer it to the pub- lle which, he was sure, liked noth- ing that “left a dark brown taste in. the less wanted to be joyously entertain: ; T Naw producers are realizing that the happy ending has been overdone and that, after all, a slice of life, which ends happily less than half the time is what a good play sup: plies. There is a distinct trend to- ward prohibiting happy endings ¢x- cept where the ‘ogical solution of the situation would result in one.” Today there are playing in New York two other dramas, at least, which are impelled ,by ‘the courage of which Mr. Bennett speaks. There is “What Price Glory,” playing at the Plymcuth Theater, in which Maxwell Anderson and Laurence Stallings offer no refinements to the life. and language of the Marines who fought in the World War. is “Detire Under the Elms,” at Greenwich Vilage Theater, by Bu- gene O'Neill, which shows the audi- ence the gamut of human emotiqn.

Phone 2818 Making Ready For Christmas Season ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—(By The Associated Press.\—Ten thousand first assistants to Santa Claus have knocked off work for the year, after cutting more than 30,000,000 board feet of lumber into the curious shapes demanded by the rulers of Toyland. There are nearly 400 establishments in the United States taking orders from Santa Claus. One manufacturer of toys in New York state uses 2,000,000 feet of lumber every year and the total value of the products of the industry in all parts of the United States reaches $35,000,000. That takes a tremendous number of trees, the American Tree associa- tion points out in a bulletin: calling beams to argument for reforesta- ion. These commercial Santa Clauses, the toy makers, ply their trade largely in the east, New England, New York, Pennsylvania and Mich- igan are the states in which the bulk of industry is located. As forest resources have been gradually used up in the east, however, the manufacturers have had to depeni upon timber brought from the west and the south, Bakery Delivery Driver Does His Charlie Chaplin Pies paved the curbing and spread ® gory trickle on the snow at Twelfih Street and Oakcrest this morning when a touring car driveneby Peter Clausen, 1743 South Pcplar street skidded broadside on into a Wyo- ming Babery wagon piloted by R.

But po- capture Congress Would Rather Hear President Deliver Own Message, Is Claim By ROBERT T. SMALL. . (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—If Presl- dent Coolidge, at the beginning of the next session décides to resume the practice of addressing congress rather than merely sending in his mesage to be read by the clerks. there will be rejoicing at both ends of the capital. Congress didn’t re- alize it, but it had come to like the formal appearances of the. president "hefore both houses. Sessions of congress are drab affairs at best and anything that can be done to lighten or brighten the legislative days is in the nature of a godsend. Thousands of persons journeyed WARRANT OUT FOR MEXICAN LOS ANGELES, Calif., Dec. 8—A bench warrant was ordered issued today here for the arrest of Tony Fuente, Mexican heavyweight fight- er, when he failed to appear for ar- raignment on the charge of violating the state boxing law following his recent match with Fred Fulton, Minneapolis plasterer-pugilist.

It is no disparagement to the contents or quality of the message to say that as an occasion the reading was a disappointment.

It may be true that President Coolidge has no par- ticular love for the present congress, Which flouted so many of his pro. posals during the last session, but when congress turned against Wood- ‘Wilson, continued to visit the capitol and read his. messages so jong as he was physically able.

President Coolidge has let it be known that he reserves the right to address the new congress when it meets in regular or extra session— and the chances of an extra session seem to grow hourly. Mr. Codlidge effect, His addresses, read from manuscript, are delivered in a calm, vert tone and marked.with » decided New England accent, which, while seeming to grate a bit upon the ears at first, soon takes on a more melo- @ious strain and Is lost completely by the audience. Mr. Coolidge is not fond of speech-making. Both Presi- dents Wilson and Harding were. Nevertheless the chances are that Mr. Coolidge’s advisers will prevail upon him to address congress next time.
