Offictally, New York, with a popula- | tion of 681915 in its five boroughs, | plays second fiddle to metsopolitan | London with 8202,818; but the Mer- chants’ Association of the American metropolis announced there are more than 12,000,000 human beings in the city proper and 23 adjoining counties of New York's trade territory.

P.. CHALLENGED ON RUM - Upshaw Seeks to Debate Both Ohio Candidates for Senate Seat. By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, October 4 —Wil- liam D. Upshaw, presidential nominee of the Prohibition party, would debate | the liquor question with Ohio's two candidates for the United States Sen- ate, Robert J. Bulkley, Democratic in- | cumbent, and Attorney General Gilbert | Bettman, Republican. | In a letter addressed to Bulkley and | Bettman, Upshaw asked them to debate | with him in Columbus, Cincinnati and | Cleveland. | “Your recent debates. in which each | of you has been claim:ng for yourself | and your party the greater crown of | wetness,” the Prohibition leader wrote. | “have been amusing to the general | public, and especially to the drys of | ©Ohio, who do not wish to see either of you elecied * * * “Since there can be no real issue between you two ‘wet’ gentlemen on prohibition, it seems to me both of you should be willing to meet on the same platform the only dry presiden- | tial candidate in America and discuss the question of national prohibition, on which you are like the ‘Siamese twins'— both wet and each trying to be wetter than the other.” Upshaw read the letter last night during the course of a campaign speech, in which he said the “dripping wet” platforms of the Republican and Dem- ocratic parties made the Prohibition party “a vital necessity in the cause of national morality.” DEFENDS GAME PLAN Audubon Societies Chief Bares Aim in Louisiana Preserve. NEW YORK, October 4 (#).—T. Gil- bert, Pearson, president of the National Association of Audubon Societies, de- | nied last night the charges of Mrs. Charles Noel Edge that the association had mismanaged the Rainey Wild Life Preserve in Louisiana. Mrs. Edge's charges hinged about the trapping of fur-bearing animals in the refuge. Pearson said it was necessary to keep the animal life in check for the pro- tection of wild fowl. The trappers, he | said, retain 50 per cent of the profits, the residue being used by the associa- tion to develop the refuge. THE EVE From the Front Row Reviews and News of Wasl’:ington's Theaters. “Liliom,” at the Nationa] Has Auspicious Opening. It ILIOM” — “A Suburban Legend in Seven Scenes and a Prologue”—which, something like 10 years ago, first brought into prominence a small, wistful, wide- eyed “child,” who only a few min- utes afterward sprang into great fame and for- tune —this is the Molnar play—his most poetic, some- times brutal, sometimes whimsical play —which offi- cially began the local theater season last night at the National. ‘That “child,” that young per- son who in this says so much by saying so little, and who, as the curtain falls, has seemed to squeeze every ounce of sympathy possible out of her audience, is the greatly imag- inative Eva Le Galllenne—who, since the first presentation of “Liliom,” has scaled the theater’s heights and become not only & good actress and a good director, but possibly a great producer as well. Miss Le Gallienne chooses her plays for the education and theatric edification of the public. While she does mnot sponsor a “hit” at every stroke of the hour, she gives her audiences what she believes should be a hit. With the result that one Joseph Schildkraut. minute she is sailing through the clouds as Peter Pan, the next deep in Ibsen Hedda Gablerisms, the next clutching a feverishly tubercularized throat as Camille, and the next sit- ting patiently outside of her little house in the suburbs of Budapest, while her somewhat immortal husband comes down from heaven with a star which he has stolen, and in wanting to be kind to his little girl, strikes her fiercely on the hand. Miss Le Gallienne, in each of these, lends herself subtly to the mood of the moment, and to see her as the much-maligned Camille, knee deep in silks and satins, or as the heavy-shoed Julie, who lets herself be beaten by Liliom and, in the ver- nacular of the day_ *“loves it” is scarcely to recognize her as one and the same person. To each role, how- ever, she brings that impeccable dic- tion which is one of the wonders of the modern theater, and a perfect reason why young, ambitious stu- dents flock to her school to learn to find out that mystery which still rvades the talkie world —namely, ow to talk. Miss Le Gallienne, as Julie last night in “Liliom,” was the same fragile, infinitely tragic young girl . that she was 10 years ago. Her eyes, perhaps, are even more brim- full of that humble poignancy which makes her characterization so full of pathos and meaning. There is no denying that when she cries—the audience cries with her. More spectacular, in its Budapest Bowery flavor, is the title role— which is Joseph Schildkraut’s best role—and which no one but he can play with such an understanding of its coarse and well-rounded idioms.
