AIVELY GHORISES - INTABS’ NUSICAL "M hulll Dancing mmmm ! Besides the excellent list of ama- tour thespians selected for the char- acter parts in “Page the Prince” the musical comedy to be presented Wednesday and Thursday nights at the Y. M. T. A. & B. society hall under the auspices of that society, the dramatic committee has choscn many talented young men and wom- en for the choruses. In the play there are many op- portunities for chorus drills and dances and in each of these, the| groups picked, are excelling in re- hearsals. Director Cyril D. Pear- son says the rehearsal augurs well for the success of the entertain- ment. One of the most picturesque and striking of the ensembles in the show is the band of royal guards. Included in this group are Misses Margaret Coughlin, Grace Luddy, Mary McCue, Helena Burke, Anne McEnroe, Eleanor Pregent, Dor- othy Shanahan, Bernadette McGary, Mary Alice Mangan, Leona Naugh- ton, Elizabeth Tarrant and Ruth| Naughton. Another group that gives plenty of tone to the seenes in the Cafe Gondolivia, makes up the cabaret entertainers. They are Misses Nell Sartinsky, Edna Peterson, Winifred Kenney, Gladys Johnson, Mabwl Suprenant, Grace Ptolomey, Rose Hahn and Joan Cellecz. The peasants appearing in the second act staged in the country of Gondolivia on the Rhine are Misses Theresa Schmidt, Edna Kindelan. Mildred Wentland, Grace Wolfer, Lillian Spaccalutie, Mary Prender- gast, Hilda Schwartz, Mary Kelley, Grace Bonney, Jeanette Roulier and Lydia Schneider. ‘The patrons of the cafe are Misses Dorothy Sundburg, Mary D'Avanzo, Helen Humason, Claire Humason, Olga Pagani, Hazel Hoffman and Mary Mautner and Jack Murphy, Walter Rossa, Arthur Smith, Ken- neth Frawley, John Lynch, Domin- ick Marine und Willlam McNamara. .

Faces Golossal Task Be- cause of 0'Fallon Decision Washington, May terstate commerce commission to- | day confronted the huge task of re- vising and bringing down to date its valuation of billions of dollars worth of railroad properties, with the pros- pect that further litigation and new legislation would be sought to clari- fy the situation. That prospect stood out clearly as members of congress and the com- mission and railroad experts pursued their study of the supreme court de- cision yesterday upholding the St. Louis and O'Fallon railroad in its test attack on the methods used by |the commission in valuing its prop- erty. | While the commission withheld a public statement on the decision, which declared that reproduction costs must be considered in fixing carrier valuations, members were in- clined to discount predictions that it would lead to large increases in rail rates. The case, it was pointed out, had to do chiefly with the resistance of the railroads to the commission’s efforts to recapture under the law one-half of their net earnings in ex- cess of six per cent of their value |for distribution among less prosper- ous carriers. The valuations on which the re- capture efforts are based, it was conceded, do operate to some extent | in the determination but the commissioners were appar- ently convinced that the present rate level would be recognized by the carriers as being at a practicable level in general and that no attempt to disturb it to any great extent would be made, except possibly to clarify legal questions involved. In view of the court's indication that the commission’s valuation of the O’Fallon property was improper because of failure to take the pres- ent cost of construction sufficiently into consideration and the existence of other differences in the general dispute over valuation, it was lhou‘ht that the next step might be the presentation of another test case to the courts. As to the probable effects of the O’Fallon decision on the clerical and engineering work of the commission, i* was pointed out that the data it | has gathered was not in question and | that the administrative problem now was to develop new valuation. Work on valuation and | the bringing of calculations up to | date has been suspended pending | |the decision in the O'Fallon case, |and that will now be pressed while revision of old decisions proceeds. ® The superficial area of ‘the ‘earth 21 (—Thg in- | of rail rates, | principles of i Members of the Luther league of the First Lutheran church will he the guests of the Luther league of | the Naugatuck Lutheran. church to- morrow. evening, leaving from Franklin Square by bus at T7:15 o'clock.
