GETS GLIMPSE VAL EFFICIENCY Marylaud Regarded seeking light as to how a larger meus-’ ure of harmony may be brought about between the peoples of the South and the North. Politically this is a good will enterprise —purely and wholly that. Socially, it aims at growth of knowledge and con- sequent all-around cultural advance in the Americas. Economically, its ob- ject is that of the greatest prosperity of the Americas through increased familiarity with their natural endow- ments of reciprocal service. On the political side, any suspicion of ill feeling between South and North America is bad not only for the Ameri- cas, but for the world. On the cultural side great unused opportunities lie be- fore the Americas. Each has a special and advanced culture. These cultures or types of civilization, potentially of great mutual importance, have nev'r been explointed for mutual advantage. Their complementary characters are as yet but a matter of opportunity and promise. On the economic side there has en no scientific and cordially earnest examination of the correlative possibilities. / Free Field Is Sought. This whole prospectus of useful work engages the mind of Mr. Hoover. With reference to no phase of it is he nar- rowly nationalistic. He is thinking of nothing but a free fleld for the ca- pacities of all peoples—the trite Amer- ican people of the open door. Live and let live, seek peace and ‘pursue those lines which make peace possible—this about. expresses the Hooverism philosophy.

A group of interested property own= ers in Takoma Park, D. C., last night expressed opposition to the proposed and extension of Piney Branch road from Butternut street north to Blair road. The meeting, called by Dr. Llewelyn Jordan of 100} Takoma avenue, Takoma Park, Md., was held in the Public Library in Ta- koma, D, C. After ‘considerable discussion the property owners, all tesidents of the District, by a vote of 38 to 2 adopted a resolution opposing the widening and extension. The resolution will be pre- sented to the District Commissioners today. The resolution pointed out that the' widening and extension of the road would be a danger rather than a benefit to the interested property owners, that the road is sufficiently wide at this time, and that sidewalks are all that is needed, while widening of the road: would endanger children now attending the public school located on the street. More than 100 citizens attended the meeting. BUG COLLECTOR MAKES HOBBY PAY FOR COLLEGE LR | Spends His Leisure Time Collect-| ing Speciments and Selling Them for Expenses. LEBANON, Tenn., (#).—J. K.

St i The American Opera Co. made a very | successful debut for the-current short | “season” of three performances here, in | | Bizet'’s “Carmen,” at Keith's Theater, | last night. The large audience showed | warm enthusiasm for the efforts of t young singers, all of whom are Ameri- | can and who sing the operas in the “language of the audience”—in this case American-English. The only foreigners associated with | the company are the director, Viadimir Rosing, who won laurels as a singer when he first came to the United States. He conceived the idea of founding this strictly American company, .for which, in the initial stages, he received the co- | operation of George Eastman, one of | America’s leading patrons of music, and | Frank St. Leger, British condudtor. | Tragedy Not Stressed. ‘The English adaptation of the orig- | inal French text for the opera was made | by the American poet who uses Helene | Mullins as_his nom de plume and | Robert A. Simon. The Bizet music¢ is | presented traditionally, with no such! liberties taken as in the Russlan “Car- mencita and the Soldier.” Also, as Mr. Rosing points out, he does not strive to stress the stark tragedy of “Carmen” but rather the sunnier side of the tale | of temoestuous love, a mother’s faith, | and a weakling hero who despises Car- men, even while he is infatuated by her. ‘The settings have the modernistic tendency to angular backgrounds and | simplicity of stage furniture. The cos- tumes would grace any musical comedy | and the youth of the majority of the singers adds considerably to the in-| terest. Taken by and large, the chorus was a decided relief. Even with the chorus, the English enunciakion seemed | to-be unusually well handled. | It is quite in keeping with the gen-| eral non-star idea of the American | Opera Co. that different singers sing | the leading roles in each production | and the others take part in the chorus, | turn about. All the young soloists last | night acquitting themselves admirabiy. None except George Fleming Houston, the bass, showed complete stage ar-| tistry or absolute surety of vocal finesse, but ‘all are young singers of artistic | training and ‘definite possibilities. Mr. | Houston is an artist of individuality, re- | sourceful ingenuity in acting, and with excellent control of a pleasing voice, He made the outstanding hit of th. evening as the gaily swaggering tor- eador, Escamillo, and his singing in the second and last acts particularly won him applause. Bettina Hall, a mezzo-soprano, dem- onstrated a lovely voice to good effect | and dramatic ability in the title role A. E. F. Veteran Stars. Patrick Killikelly, as Don Jose, claims | the distinction of being the youngest man enlisted in the Regular Army for the A. E. F. He enlisted at 15 and won the Croix de Guerre when 17. He has a typical Irish quality to his lyric tenor voice, and he sang the “Flower Song” last night most acceptably. Louise Rich- ardson, the Michacla, with a good | voice, was especially good in her first | aria. Others in lesser roles who did their parts well were Peter Chambers, John Uppman, Frederic Roberts, Mark Daniels, Louise Bernhardt, Thelma | Votipka and Winifred Goldsborough. Tonight at 8:15 o'clock Flotow’s | opera of English life, “Martha,” will be | sung. Tomorrow night the season will | be closed with a performance of the spectacular “Faust” that first made this company fatous, and which opened its first professional season last year in the National Capital.
