By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. On one side are the beauty-hungry people of New York; the thin, drab, weary women who stand hours in line at the Metropolitan Opera House to win a draughty, uncomfortable seat under the roof; the swarthy, fiercely mustached men who swarm through the art museum corridors every Sunday; the “ignorant” working folk and their stunted children, who walk miles through hot summer streets to hear a park concert. On the other side are the young American artists; the poets and painters, with their verses and designs of new beauty; the composers who would make new songs for unwearied voices to sing; the dramatists and the dancers who have “the vision without which the people perisheth.” And there is The Wall Between. Between the peop! ing—in an even who are starving for art and the artists Who are starv- more literal sense—for art, there is the barrier of a few individuals who control the conditions of artistic expression, who make art expensive and who snovbishly prefer the European reputation to the home-made genius. That is how Isadora Duncan sees it. That is why Isadora Duncan, un- questionably the greatest genius of the dance America has produced, is leaving America, perhaps not to re- turn. It is not that she finds New York “cold and heartless.” It is not that she finds wo “don’t know art and don’t appreciate it.” It fe that she finds The Wall. art will be possible in " she told me, with quiet “until the Government wakes up to the fact that beauty is not an accident, but the revela- tion of Divine Truth; that great music is not an entertainment luxury, but as necessary to the peopl bread; that great poetry should not be for the few of the ‘oultured class,’ but an inepired message which workmen should sing daily at their work, as in the common peopl tus.” 211 Fourth Avenue. She likes you to leave off the “Duncan.” “I don't see why one needs more than one name,” she protests, “There was Tristan— and Isolde. And Romeo and Juliet. One name was enough for each of them.” WORD PICTURE OF I8ADORA DUNCAN AT REST. — And there is only one Isadora, She had been rehearsing her children just before my entrance, and she lay back resting on a wide couch covered with some soft rose-colored stuff, her chin Pillowed in one smooth palm. She wore her Greek dancing dress, sleeve- leas and falling in long, loose drapery to the beautiful bare feet. Her arms and shoulders are talate marble turned flesh. Dure Greek, no lo or obscured by her flat mat of boy's curls. Her smile—but I do not think there is any way of describing Isa- dora’s emile, less I tell you that it Goes to her face what the sunlight did to those pictures on frosted glass which your mother used to hang in the window. “1 believe the possibilities for the flowerin in America are as great anywhere else,” ehe averred earnestly. “It ie only that the conditions fer artiste here are impossible.

Indeed, I have found the public here génerous and beautiful and inspiring. I only waid that the conditions here for artists were heartiess. That has bothing to do with the people of New York; that has to do with the men who govern those conditions, “Only, all the people to whom I wish to give my art and my school I cannot reach,” the dancer added, re- gretfully. “I cannot reach them be- cause there isn’t a big amphitheatre here, with beautiful orchestra and whel could go to dance at very low prices r nothing.

The German-American Alliance, which consists ef thirty-seven local societies, asks the President to in- vestigate Killite’s speech and to dis- cipline him “in such manner as the eeriousness of hie offense against the Government that employs him and a friendly nation warrants.” Federal Judge John M. Killite of Toledo, who is in this city hearing cases, commenting to-day on the pro- test the German Alliance of Toledo made against him, said: “It is too absurd to discuss.
