IOB-__\WII-L (Bpecial Correspondence of The Star and Chi- cago Daily News.) BERLIN, Germany, Mdy 15.—The atre ‘and ungertainty of modern German life are having their effect on art, sclence and research, and on [the public taste’ and temper. Here, lagaln, the great conditioning: fact is that the middle class, the patron of] lytha fine arts and the conséerver of esthetic and intellectual standards, has gone broke. It cannot buy books or pictures, hence cannot say what kind of books and pictures should be Iproduced. It cannot go to the the- jater. ‘It eannot, without the greatest idifficulty, send its ehildren to the juniversitjes. | Deterioration is evident, but it h: not progresscd equally far in alb di partments of effort. The luxurious German urt magasines, mutchless the world over in their technical produc- {tion and sold for a trifle, are still ipublished. though their color repro- duction Is inferior to that of pre- iwar days. The theaters of Germany, taking them at their average, have been in ithe past one of the marveis of the modern world. For the most part {they arc still at a high standard of taste and cxccution. In two months' stay in Munich this spring qne could have ken or heard eight Shukespeare 11 of Wagncr's operas except four works of Strauss; a goodly assortment of the German | classics, both dramatic and operatic. including the dramatic sk t thi imedieval shoemake works by #bsen. Str Shaw, Calderon, Moliere, i sun, Tolstoy, Tchekhov and Rabindr: ath Tagore, and last, but not leas ! “Potash and Perlmutter.” High Standards of Acting. | The theaters and opera houses jwork under the greatest difficultles.; i The pay of most of the artists would ! inot tempt an American truck driver| to go to work. The more famous are leaving to accept better engagements . al But the average scandard is} rdinarily high. The perform- jances of Shakespeare in particular | !are brought off with vivacity and in- | {telligence. The singing at the na- | tional ,opera house is, taking an av- jerage of all the principals of per- ! formances. fine. Thus, though the audience has ! changed for the worse, the artists of ithe Munich theaters have been car- rying_on according to their ideals. ! But Munich has been exceptionally isuccessful. Most of the prolelunull jcities aTready show the change in {the quality of their repertori i performances, the theater Berlin where the newly rich are su- preme, -has completely succumbed. For most theaters the fine repertory system has been abandoned, and the {stage”ls given over to long runs of |dirty farces and tasteless operettas, The writing of music, though it had ialready fallen upon evil days before the war, is still vigorous, though the | most ‘uncompromising composers are {literally starving for their ideals. | Pictures are still painted in great quantity, and the taste has not no- ‘ ticeably declined, although the young- | er artists are tossed about among the | most extreme modern theories.

Depart- ment of Agriculture. GAINESVILLE, Fla., July 8.—“Some- body ought to have a genuine Florida ! razor-back mounted before they become extinct. They're hard to find now. Thus does no less an authority than ithe bureau of markets and crop esti- mates of the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture here officially confirm the suspicion that the porker around which so many yarns have, been spun soon will be a candidate for the museum.

The hospitals of Munich, for example, are amasing in their completeness, cleanliness and efficiency. Research work continues restlessly, although the laboratories are actually often too poor even to purchase pure alcohol for experi- ment: \ ‘The universitles are active. There are in Munich more than 15,000 students of university grade—more than before the war—but fully 5,000 of these are living in conditions of permanent distress.

Depression, Worry and Hate. The mood of the people as a_whole is beyond question depressed.

BY EDGAR ANZEL MOWRER. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 19221 T e ROME, Italy, July 8.—The Italian Confederation of Labor, representing 1,250,000 laborers, has decided at the annual congress in Genoa to continue its alllance with the Italian soctalist party and to urge the socialists to per- mit their parliamentary group to vote for a government which promises to limit the action of the fancisti and to prevent the present terrorism exercised against the socialists in many parts of Italy. ' Hitherto the socialist party has al- ways, been against the cabinet and its 125 /deputies have constituted the nucleus of the pcrmament parliamentary opposition. But the apparent complicity of the govermment with the fascisti bands that recently obtained the trans- fer from Bologna of Prefect’ Mori and have mow occupied by violent means the city halls in Cremona, Rimini and ]Adrlu after driving out the regularly elected soclalist administrations, togeth- er with the general complacency with ich government officials observe fas- cisti violences, has led the workers to beileve that their interests can best be protected if the socialist deputies give their votes to a friendly cabinet. 1f the confederation’s vote is accepted favorably by the socialist party the com- ing of a government of the left in the Italian chamber may be expected. — NEGRO ELUDES SHERIFFS.
