UFE. OF MRS. THOMASSON She Had Three Husbands Before Marrying St. lodiee-Divercca Month Before. ' Some of the details of the past life of Mrs. Grace’ Thomasson, youthful bride of Hugh W. Thom- asson, 73-year-old capitalist who has filed suit for marriage annul- ment, were disclosed in depositions taken at her home town, Niles, O., by her husband's attorney. Stephen C. Rogers,-'Thomasson’s attorney, will ask for a court order to show cause why she should not be committed to jail until she answers his questions concerning. her past which, on the advice of counsel, she declined to discuss in déposi- tions. Friends, relatives: acquaintances, former business associates and her third husband, William Mahood, were among the witnesses who toid Attorney Mogers of their previous experiences with the 28-year-old defendant. The depositions were taken in an effort to establish Mrs. Thomasson's reputation for truth, and veracity. Her first marriage, it was dis- clésed, was in 1920 to Paul Fish of Boston, who died eight days after the ceremony. About a year later, she married Carl S. Putney of New York, who she has said de- serted her and two children born of their marriage. She learned two years later that he was killed Mm an accident, she has said. She was married a third time in 1925 to William Mahood, who 4di- vorced her last June 25, exactly one month before her fourth wed- ding to Thomasson. A child of this marriage, and the other two children are in the-care of friends at Niles. A tea room which she opened with the assistance of Mrs. Audrey McDonald of Youngstown, O., was unsuccessful, Mrs. McDonald testi- fied, because Mrs. Thomasson neg- lected the business. Several difficulties which arose over the issuance of checks by the were straightened out only after a conference with the Prosecuting Attorney, it was said. Witnesses testified of her asso- ciations in other cities where she lived before she came to St. Louis. Mrs. Thomasson has declared in depositions that she informed her fourth husband, the wealthy Thom- asson, of her past “from the day I was born.” She declined, however, to. diselose the details of her discus- sions with him before marriage. 14 Killed in Spanish Wreck.

Tony Ortell, who has served two terms in the State penitentiary, went to trial today before a jury in Circuit Judge Green's court charged with robbery with a deadly weapon as an habitual criminal, as the result of a holdup in which a ' robber was killed and a city detec- tive wounded, Under the habitual criminal law, the Court will issue a mandatory instruction for life imprisonment if the jury finds Ortell guilty. Rob- bery with a deadly weapon is pun- ishable by a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or death. Ortell, it is charged, was the companion of David J. Murphy and Earl Dowling on Nov. 28, 1929, when they entered a house at 4553 ‘Delmar boulevard, holding up Eve- lyn O’Brien while Detective Ser- geant James H. Teeter and Detec- tives Arthdér Abbott and Michael Quinlisk sat in a back room. In a pistol fight Murphy was killed and Detective Quinlisk was wounded. Dowling has pleaded guilty and is serving a 10-year term. The State opened its case by proving that Ortell had served two two-year prison terms, one for grand larceny and one for posses- sion of burglar’s tools. Teeter and Quinlisk testifiedsbut neither iden- tified Ortell as dne of the robbers. Teeter testified the detectives visited the house to investigate a bad check and were talking to Mrs. O’Brien when the doorbell rang. While she answered the door, they retired to a rear room where pres- ently they were confronted by Mur- phy with a pistol. They stood with hands raised until Murphy turned his head aside when Teeter slipped out of the room and the other de- tectives began,to shoot. Teeter told of: exchanging shots with Murphy mm an areaway across the street but said he did not see either of Murphy's companions. Quinlisk said he followed Teeter out of the room and met Dowling in the rear hall. Dowling shot him in the chest and he collapsed, he said, and did not see the third robe ber.

While approving the venti central purchasing plan, said that experience has indicated that in its application the idea is weak in teamwork and does not ne- result in economies, due to the rief seem endless,” he said, “every dollar available for the provision of food, fuel, and clothing should be stretche@ to the limit. In the- ory a central purchasing plan by which supplies can be bought in carload lots ig advisable. But such a plan is like @ forward | chiefly on volunteer service which may be individually efficient but is not always so. Almost invari- ably the teamwork is weak. . Heavy Inventory Required. “Another difficulty In the cen- tral buying plan is that it would require an extraordinarily heavy inventory to meet the widely dif- fering needs of applicants. Car- load lots of food bought economic- ally often must be stored uneco- nomically. “Standard family relief agencies strive to avoid herding applicants into a single pen or classification of food or clething. If a family still has a home, the agency tries to meet it on its own threshold and give its members means by/ which, they themselves can tide over to better times. “For instance, the agency en- courages the family it seeks to help to deal with the same grocer, who perhaps has extended it credit. This, of course, means that supplies are bought at retail i but they are bought with the pride and independence of family. “And after all, clothes are part of personality. Dramatically, the evolution of the social problem of children has been marked by their change from paupers in gingham and brogans to individuals wear-.| ing clothes such as the rest of tile world wears. “Insofar as the central plan merits adoption, it tends to deny mass feeding and clothing which mass buying makes necesary.” Kelso said that while mass buy- ing for emergency relief has proved difficult, joint purchasing by “in- stitutions has been even more troublesome to bring about econ- omically. “So many ‘ifs’ and ‘ands’ de- velop over and above the actual cost of the service,” he said “that ultimate savings are greatly im-/ paired. “As social work programs be. come effectively integrated we find these hindrances to joint ac- tion decreasing. The time may come soon when central purchas- ing will be an efficiency rather than a hazard. “Meanwhile, such @ plan, re- quiring the setting up of a regular business organization to buy, store, inventory, transport and distribute commodities, is economically im- practicable.” TWO ARCHITECTS WIN PRIZES Two St. Louis architects were advised today that they had won prizes in bathroom design offered - Ey, om RT Ny ce A gd” PRG AN ES RRS ANE OB TNE, 06 9 NCSC ENR RIE RE NO Si tocue tc USC A OE Ae Oe ‘ ye x * bs . 5, ‘ ’ # 7 £ : ae : F ; ee : wie “es : } : Weeks ee 3 a oe &; n . * d - ™ : ‘ . fr r % ¥ e , a 4 Fi a B . ~~ . i ee 4 f > = - e ‘ a : ra ? er “34 ae » +o sy . » ~” Sa i, - : " ‘ i " ¥ i : _ ‘ docs 7 Pi ; ° , ‘ i nee is, $ F 5 A ON ie Poets tein ; + , “ ce “a 3 : ue ; F ' Saag ot, ed ‘> Eee ‘ : a Ps Mee : Fi ‘ om ¥* % i ‘ é -— . os % ¥ . vs . ’ o> . tok 4 ‘ w “ates ’ a ' . sie ey oe | ; “4 e é 3 at : : + “oe: ; tg - t ’ » ’ : . od oe ; ‘ a ” = ' o ? 2s a moe 5 ‘ ‘.

Removal of buildings from the two-block site of Aloe Plaza, op- posite Union Station, is expected to start shortly, under an arrange- ment made by the Comptroller's office yesterday with three wreck- ing companies, which are to in- corporate the St. Louis Salvage & Wrecking Co. for the work. No charge will be made to the city, but the new firm will have the salvage of all the structures. The best previous offer had been from a company which was willing to make no charge except one of $2700 for razing the concrete frame building occupied by a hotel at the northwest corner of Nineteenth and Market streets. : ; David H. Cohen of D. H. Cohen, Inc.; J. W. Davis of the Davis Wrecking Co., and 0. M. Hoofman of the Hoofman Wrecking Co., comprise the: new syndicate. The new corporation will carry work- men’s compensation insurance to protect against loss through in- juries to employes. The syndicate agreed to hire only St. Louisans, with preference to married men. The plaza site is bounded by Eighteenth, Twentieth, Market and Chestnut streets. The city owns it all except one narrow lot at 13819 Market, which is under condemna- tion. Vacant buildings can be wrecked now and it has been ar- ranged to vacate others as quickly as possible. The city will have a balance of about $152,000 in the station plaza bond item which can be used for improving the place and the Terminal Railroad has of- fered to give about $50,000 towards | this. Mayor Miller. undertook recently to bring about development of this’ plaza, partly as a means of giving work to the idle and partly in re- sponse to pressure for carrying out this civic enterprise. Comptroller Nolte objected to the suggestion that it might be necessary in view of economic conditions to pay for wrecking, and insisted that it could be done without charge except for the salvage.

Deferred Payments M rranged, vith Small Cinylag Clones a. tives yesterday by Democratic reader John Garner. He said the Secretary of the Treasury was not only a wizard, but the greatest juggler and sleight-of-hand per- former since Houdini when it came to handling figures.. Specifically, in a carefully docu- mented speech, Garner accused Mellon of attempting deliberately to “deceive Congress and the pub- lic” concerning the amount of taxes refunded under his admin- istration. He said the Secretary, | by a process of omitting sums that should have been included and in- cluding sums that should have been omitted, had produced a picture which bore no resemblance to the actual ¢ondition. Secretary Mellon in his annual report, and also in a recent public statement, declared that during the last 14 years internal revenue re- ceipts had totaled $44,032,371,000, whereas the amount paid out in refunds during the same _ period was only $1,254.317,000; and he added: “So that the amount re- funded by the Bureau (of Internal Revenue) has been only approxi- mately 2.8 per cent of the amount «<< ~ ~~ COUNTED ONLY | collected.” Garner told the House that the figure given by Mellon 4s repre- senting total refunds included only actual cash refunds, and omitted all refunds made in the form of credits and abatements against fu- ture taxes. Credits and abatements during the nine years that Secre- tary Mellon has been in office have totaled $2,252,042,000, the said, j thus making a grand total of more than $3,450,000,000 in taxes turned back under Mellon’s administraticn. “I want the House and the pub- lic to know how much dependence can be put upon Mr. Mellon’s fig- ures,” said Garner. “He gives you the amount of cash refunds, but! doesn't say a word about credits) und abatements. What is the dif- ference between sending a man a check for taxes that he has paid | and giving him credit for taxes! that he ig ready to pay? Of — it amounts to the same thing.” Continuing, Garner pointed out ‘hat the figure of $44,000,000,000, siven by Melion as the total inter- nal revenue for the period, included many classes of taxes on which no refunds were ever made. Thus, he pointed out, that it included all the so-called “nuisance taxes” of wartime, such as taxes on theater and baseball admissions, railroad and Pullman tickets, automobiles and accessories, club dues, toilet articles, cosmetics, candy, chewing suns, mahjong sets, sporting goods, ‘iquor and tobacco, documentary ‘amps, and so on. Charges Deception. “Why did he lug in all these! ‘axes?"" demanded the Texan. “Everyone knows that taxes never | were refunded on‘ baseball admis-| ‘ons, chewing gum or candy. Why did he inelude them? For the) ‘ame reason that he failed to in- “ude credits and abatements in his refund total—for purposes of “omparison, By making the tax ‘otal look large, and the refund ‘otal look small, he could arrive “t &@ more respectable percentage. 7 ee | ask you whether this is a fair nd honest statement to come from | (he Secretary of the Treasury?” | _In making a proper comparison, | “arner said, Mellon was warranted 'n including in his tax total’ only “© revenues derived from income, ‘xcess profits and inheritance “*es, since virtually all refunds ~ made to apply on those taxes. hen he showed that the total in- “le, excess profits and inherit- ance (axes collected by the Treas- “ry in the last 14 years was $32,- on, 88000, instead of $44,000,000,- ATs -* _Alleges 10 Per Cent Refund. , “Onsequently,” he deciared.

Student riots, strike dis-| orders, republican plots, have contributed their share | - of strife and bloodshed. The latest rebellion, the Government eays, has been put down. Leaders of the revolt at Jaca, near the Wrench border, have been shot. Rebellious aviators who flew over Madrid dropping incendiary literature have fled to Pirtugal, Where they will presumably be interned. News of ‘these victories has been released by the censor, while ominous reports of a threatening general strike come ing of the soft, Upon the contrary, the tariff law it-| trom behind the cloak of secrecy. Such a strike can be a terrible weapof if all groups of labor join in wielding it and preserve a united front. But Span- ish revolts so far have been characterized by lack of coherence, by prematitre explosions in one sectof before the forces of another were ready to move, by pledges to join in rebellion that were not fulfilled. The nation is in the grip of medievalism, and it is. trying to make up several centuries in a few days. The present Spanish Government is essentially a military one, and depends for its continuance on the loyalty of the armed forces. Primo de Rivera, who as dictator ruled Spain with an iron hand for six years, was forced to retire last January when he lost the support of military leaders. His successor, Ber- enguer, is similarly a military man, and has pursued oppressive tactics similar to De Rivéra’s. He has not restored the Spanish Constitution, despite his promise to do so, and as yet there has been no election or meeting of the Parliament, dissolved in 1928 by De Rivera. Censorship has been relaxed in only a slight ‘degree. Absence of representation, economic unrest, the huge public debt and official corruption have aroused the people from time to time, The‘despair of libéral thought all over the world, Spain promises at) last to turn upon her tormenters and step out of yes- Gen.

He finds the cost of dams excessive for the horsepower they would generate or their storage possibilities as affecting the While those who suffer from flood losses along the Meramec will find little comfort in Gen. Brown’s conclusion, thousands who use the river as a play- ground will be glad to learn that it is not to become mechanized and controlled by engineers. Its charm is that it has survived im a state of nature, and ap- parently it is to continue to play the immemorial |’ role of questing toward the Mississippi in its own In a day when nearly every aspect of life falls un- der some Government department or other, let us give thanks for Gen.

What characteristics has it, in distinction to other fields of thought, which may justify such a hope? “If we were to subtract from what we know and from what we can do, all that which’ has a philosophical origin, not much more would remain.to us-than an immense field of mere fragmentary impression, a chaos, lacking order and meaning, of isolated facts; for the finding and the ascribing of meaning is philosophy’s undeniable share in the construction of our world-picture. * ® ® “Philosophy is the belief in meaning’ and the application of It is i nywys eft] precisely because of the intellectual fashion of lay together with the general growing persyasion among the inking masses that life has an have no meaning, that the rnational Society and its Re- iow are of very great importance; ‘ce It ls only by virtue of mean- os transcending immediate physical experience, that men ever rose above the status of the beast or can hope’ to remain even as uman as they now are, the Menck- isand the John B.

Yet their objection to this systematized lun- acy has remained hitherto unsuc- cessful, and was bound to remain unsuccessful as long as economics itself could still brag of its self- law with-an appearanee of justice. ‘Only at the-moment when .its most highly ~skilled exponents themselves question this self-law or at least confine and limit it, will it perhaps become more ready to realize the truth that its practice of an unlicensed creation of needs is completely irreconcilable with all the leading systems of morality and, moreover, with all the leading religions, whose messages it now at heart declares to be binding even for itself. “What then? Systems of moral- ity, even hedonistic, and religions, even ‘heathen,’ aim in their most noble phases commonly at a dimi- nution rather than an increase of need! Perhaps less because they considered those who have no needs to be under all conditions also the better men—this would by no means fit the facts—than because a certain physical lack of needs provides the spiritual basis necessary for that mighty inward fervor, which in morality is’ gen* erally directed toward self-perfec- tion and self-development in: re- ligion toward self-purification and self-sanctification . .. All moral and religious systems know that this urge toward some moral or re- ligious superworld abates and languishes just in proportion as physical need becomes predomi- nant. To live in an environment in which every public actuality tends directly or\indirectly towards the continual stimulation, yes, the continual provocation of a ‘purely physical longing for matter and reality, where economics as such world that psychic urge toward supernatural values and so pro- fesses to still our inborn spiritual striving to a ‘highest Good’ by the deplorable multiplicity of ex- changeable material commodities, —to live in such an environment is equivalent to stifling outright the religious needs in the economico- commercial one. It is not neces- sary to emphasize further at this point the pernicious self-deception entailed, as if wages and income could in any way keep pace with this artificially aroused need for a commodity. Or as if the modest fortune of plain homely content- ment could still spread within a society, in which the fashionably altering display of goods attaches to so unlimited a mass and variety of wares a label of necessity, that in face of it even the purchasing- power of the rich is beaten, where- as the poor seem doomed to poverty hitherto undreamt of.” What we need desperately is the ability to think logically about the dangerous situation of modern so- ciety, and in order to do so, we must somehow manage to escape the all but omnipotent influence of the prevailing world view, which is it- self a product and-portion of the matter to be considered. To at- tempt to think logically about a world mood that is itself identical with our own consciousness is equivalent to lifting oneself by one’s boot straps. , So long as the “fulcrum and the weight to be lifted are the same, no lever can be effective. The ful- crum must be outside\the weight. It is the purpose of the Internation- al Philosophical Society, through its magazine, to furnish such an in- tellectual fulcrum for our Aroubled wotld.

McIntyre . NEW YORE. T had been whispered about for Oy uekt tunidioos ie fier, Ziegfeld, was slipp Carroll, several facts. Ziggy had been slowing up in show productions and had an- dabble with talkies. Most of his executive staff had been dismissed. One or two of his final legitimate stage efforts were not so hot from the box office view. There was even talk the Ziegfeld theater was to be taken over and renamed:for a younger rival. The Rialto was writing “Finis” to its oldest figure who cameé out of-no- where and with an ofNce under his hat sponsored the national theat- rical institution—The Follies. ‘Or so it was generally believed. One can imagine Ziegfeld, hi If, adding what credence ho could to the talk with a card up his sleeve. He is #hat.sort of a showman. He, of course, confounded all the wise- acres a month ago with his Mari- lyn Miller starring smash. In a way it was a sort of double coup for both Ziegfeld and his star, There were the same vague whisperings about Miss Miller, too. She had been, they said, over-ex- ploited and was at her best only a smirking ‘dancing girl with a few nimble steps and a property smile. Yet with his familiar and worked-to-death Cinderella theme —the basis for that old conspicuous success “Sally,” headed by Miss Miller—-he has triumphed theatri- cally as never before. The critics fairly prostrated themselves with high-flown elegiacs. Ziegfeld’s art is in assembling and discarding. He puts together enough for three shows and works from there by process of elimina- tion. He will pit two hoofers against each other and engage the one that comes nearest to breaking aneck. He shoots with a blunder- buss. ZIEGFELD opening takes on something of the splendor and pomp of a coronation set in the gilt halls of a Versailles. A block each way is policed off and powerful searchlights splash the front of the theater a la Hollywood. Crowds throng the sidewalks to peep into the arriving limousines. As they step from the cars, the flux of fashionables is malevolently stopped at crucial moments and the great snapshotted in the utter ridiculousness of arrested — at. titudes. The while their names are broadcast to a palpitating populace. All of which is likely supreme showmanship but to my notion is an impious gesturé that comes very nearly being The Great American Vulgarity. ROF.

CHARGES MELLON JUGGLED FIGURES TO FOOL PUBLIC Continued From Page One. funds almost negligible, as com- pared with the Mellon years which followed.” ———a ‘ public statement, Secretary Mellon emphasized that during the 14- year period ending last June 30, the amount of additional tax assess- ments resulting from audits and in- vestigations, totaled $5,345,202,000. He contrasted this with the figure of $1,354,317,000, which he gave as representing ‘“‘total refunds’’ dur- ing the same period, for the pur- pose of showing that the Treasury actually had collected in addition- al assessments several times the amount’ it had handed back in refunds. When Congress Intervened, | Garner showed that, of the sum collected in additional assessments, $1,053,231,000 was assessed under the Wilson administration, from 1917 to 1921, inclusive, before Mellon took office. On the other hand, refunds made under the Wilson administration during those years totaled less than $70,000,000. Figures on credits and abatements during those years were not availa- ble from the Treasury Department, he said. Acting on rumors that vast sums were being refunded secretly by the Treasury, Congress in 1926 enacted a law providing for a joint. committee on taxation, composed of Representatives and Senators, and provided that all refunds ex- ceeding $75,000 should be submit- ted to this board. L. H. Parker, an authorit¥Y on accounting, has been chief of staff for this commit- tee since its creation. Garner disclosed yesterday that he had requested Parker to make a complete written analysis of tax refunds, and that the figures which he gave the House were ob- tained by Parker from the Treas- ury itself. He challenged any of- ficial to dispute their accuracy. Moreover, Garner charged that there. had been “a sharp‘arid sud- den drop in the amount of re- funds” beginning with the year 1927, when large refunds became subject to review by the joint com- mittee. Contrast With Wilson Term. “Why did this drop occur?” He asked sarcastically. “I'll tell you, It was because Congress decided to find out what Uncle Andy was doing down there. He fought it to a finish, you remember, but the law was passed. Then the drop occurred. Here are the figures: “In 1922, he tells us, refunds to- taled only 2.1 per cent of collec- tions. True, but the credits and abatements totaled 8.2 per cent, so that the actual percentage handed back was 10.3 per cent. It ig il- luminating to note that under the Wilson administration the total cash refunds never rose higher than four-fifths of 1 per cent, But 1922 was Uncle Andy’s first year—he was just getting started. “By 1924 he had really begun to be active. In that year refunds amounted to 7 per cent of collec- tions, and credits and abatements amounted to 25.3 per cent—a total of 32.3 per cent that was’ handed back, most of it necessarily to the great corporations. In 1925 the total was 28.3 per cent, and in 1926 it was 32.8 per cent. In that year Uncle Andy broke all his own rec- cided to find out what was going qn. Note what happened. “In the following year cash re- funds dropped 4.5 per cent, and credits and abatements to 15.8 per cent, a total of 20.3 per cent, as compared with 32.8 per cent dur- ing the last year of secrecy. In 1928 the total was 21.7 per cent; in 1929 it was 25.4 per cent, and in the year ending June 30, 1930, it was 18.3 per cent. Those are ithe figures—you can draw your own conclusions from them.” Pointing out once more that the figures contained in Secretary Mel- lon’s statement covered not only the nine years of his own term, but also the preceding five/years under the Wilson administration, Garner declared that a study confined to Melion’s term would reveal a still more interesting condition. Be- causq he said, collections were /much higher and refunds much lower under the Wilson administra- tion, . | then I will put in the Congression- al Record all the details so that yon may study them,” he said. “During the nine years that Uncle Andy Mellon has been in the Treas- ury he has collected a total of $19,- 000,000,000 in income, . excess profits and Inheritance taxes. Dur- ing that period he has handed back, in the form of refunds, cred- its and abatements, more than $3,- 000,000,000. : This is the Secretary of the Treasury who tries to con- vey the impression that the total turned back is only 2.8 per cent of Replying ’ WEDNESDAY, DE der protest, after losing in thejyear, without that a startling percentage of the Another suit by |.

Written by Army Paymaster. The play was written by Maj. Alphonso Wetmore, paymaster at Jefferson Barracks, who attained some distinction later not by writ- ing more plays, but by following the Santa Fe trail and obtaining valuable Government information in Mexico. It was published in May, 1821, by J. A. Paxton, pub- lisher of the first St. Louis direc- tory. Maj. Wetmore drew _ setting, characters and material from his surroundings. Plausibly, then, some idea of the prejudices and people of St. Louis a century ago may be gained by consideration of the play. The dramatic starting-point was a prejudice against the “Yankee” and for Virginia and “Old Kain- tuck.” The Yankee “Pedlar’ char- acteristically cheated a frontiers- man and all his household in the first scene, but conquered pro- vincialism with Yankee gold and. of course, married his erstwhile victim’s daughter in the last. Characters, who must each have had a counterpart fh the frontier village, included “Old Prairie,” proud of his “hog and hominy;”’ his daughters, a pair of coy rustic beauties; his son. a half-wit Con- stable, proud of his coon dog: “Emigrant,” looking for a place to settle in the West, and “Old Con- tinental,’’ who toasted “those who fought and bled and died at Bun- ker Hill—and I am one of them!” A Convival Celebration. | For manners and morals, there is the note that the Pediar, on first encounter, sells the “nut brown beauty” a primitive lantern for three prices and takes a kiss to boot, whereupon. she confides io the audience: “My, what a sweet breath! He don’t chew tobacco, I’m sure.” Further, the Fourth of July was celebrated in the old style, with great drinking and oratory, and as the stage was set with mugs the frontier precursor of: the Watch and Ward Society broke loose again with raucous appeals to “end this creation of hell.” And in conciu- clusion “Col. Keemle’”* appeared again to pay particular thanks to the professional actresses as both “chaste and elegadht’”—pure chiv- alry in days when, as indicated by the interruptions, popular apprais- als of women who dared go on the stake went no further than merely elegant, . Laughter was almost constant in an unusually large. audiencé. Brought out of the dust of 92 years’ ‘oblivion, the old pieec still had some humor. And it was enhanced by a presentation that attempted to give, not merely the play, but the robust spirit of that far-off day. Students “acted, the actors’ as well as the characters conceived by the frontier paymaster; boys ,dis- played the c@relessness and _ in- rtimacy of the Thespians with an audiefice of everyday associates, and girls undertook the greedy curtsies and extravagant manner- isms of sophisticated stage ladies from. the East. Student actors included William Ogden, Myron Klotcky,, Victor. Woerheide, William Smith, Marvin Mueller, John Horner and George Selvin as Théspians, with Elizabeth Croft, Gertrude Landesman and El- mira Heritage as members of the | Collins & Jones troupe. Willis | Wagner represented Col. Keemle. Direction was by Prof. William Bruce Carson, author of a forth- coming book on the theatér in early St. Louis. -And to the Mercantile Library, which was hatdsomety represented in the audience, goes the credit for preserving a copy of the first play written in St. Louis.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17.-—A published statement by the Pacific brought natural gas to San Fran- cisco and ether cities of Northern | domestic consumers have been re- duced as much as 60 per cent, as compared with the price of manu- factured gas formerty provided by this company, and that when its projects now under way are com- pleted, it will serve 136 cities and towns through €955 miles of mains. On July 31, last, the company was serving natural gas to 495,047 con- sumers. When the 289-mile pipe line j from Buttonwillow and Kettleman | Hillis to Sam Francisco and Oakland was completed, the company im- mediately took steps to provide straight natural gas, having heat value of more than 1100 British thermal units to all its customers, including homes, in place of the manufactured gas of 5509 B. T. U. which it had been supplying. The company’s system as now completed comprises 800 miles of high-pressure pipe lines and two new storage holders, one in San Francisco of 10.000,000 cubic feet capacity, and one in Oakland of 6,000,000 cubic feet capacity. The daily capacity of the system is giv- en as 200,000,000 cubic feet, which may be increased to 300,000,000 by the addition of intermediate com- pressors. The total outlay for the project was $28,000,000. “As a predicate for the expendi- ture of this large sum of money,” the company states, “the Pacific Gas & Electric Co. has the assur- ance of geologists that if the Ket- tleman Hills supply should be con- served and developed only as need- ed, it will be sufficient to produce 400,000,000 cubic feet a day for 75 years. This capacity is approxi- mately 13 times the average daily amount of manufactured gas dis- tributed by the company during 1929, serving about $8 per cent of all the gas sold in Northern and Central California.” How the change-over from man- ufactured gas to natural gas was San Francisco and 134 Other: rn = ame i ontributions to Post Christmas CONTRIBUTIONS. high Anna O'Donnell. 1; boulevard.

MACHINE BUNS IN TWO YEARS Chicagoan’s Sales Certified by Notary for Use of Lake County. Prosecutor. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, Dec. 17.—A list of the machine guns sold during the last two years by Peter von Frant- zius, was certified before a notary public yesterday by Von Frantzius and turned over to Col. A. VY. Smith, State’s Attorney of Lake County. More than 50 submachine guns of a German make have been distributed to all parts of the coun- try, the list disclosed. Police in Chicago think that weapons sold by Von Frantzius have been used in a half dozen major gang murders. It was in connection with th killing of three gangers at Fox Lake, near Waukegan, that Col. Smith sought the list. Ballistics tests had indicated that a gun of the German make was used in those killings. More than‘ 30 guns were listed as having been sold to Maxwell Brown & Co., New York. Smith started an investigation. to learn the nature of the company. He thought that many of the 30 found their way back to Chicago and into gangsters’ hands. Von Frantzius is awaiting trial cn a charge of selling weapons without keeping proper records.

Collinsville scored a victory over Lebanon, 25-19, on the winners’ floor, while Wood River defeated Bunker Hill, 24-11. Collinsville won its game in the last few minutes of play, with Leb- anon fighting hard to retain a lead held throughout almost the entire contest. Lebanon lead, 11-6, at the half. The last two quarters were fast and exciting, as Collinsville began to improve its shooting. Lebanon ‘played hard and“ the Kahoks brought the score to trail, 16-13, at the end of the third session. The spectacular play of Gillespie and Moore of Collinsville put the host team ahead in the last two min- utes. Gillespie was the outstanding player for Collinsville with. his de- fense work, besides being high point man with. four field, goals. Moore and Jack, the two forwards, each sank two field goals. Wolf was the star of the game, how- ever. The Lebanon boy, also high for his team with eight points, took the honors for all-round play, and his skillful sentry work was a large factor in holding Collinsville the first three quarters.

Its toughness hits the promoter ; more than anyone else, for the game cannot possibly cémpete with the college game, While the pros’ play is better and cleaner, it lacks the color given it by the alma mater angle and the crowds, after a glimpse or two of the one or more big stars corraled by the management, just won't come out in sufficient numbers to make it pay.” “Probably the New York Giants, the Brooklyn Dodgers, the Green Bay Packers and the two Chicago elevens, Bears and ‘Cardinals, made money, but even they‘ won’t be able to show enormous profits. “Will the professional -league continue next year?” Mahan was asked. : Fewer Clubs in 1931. “Probably it will,” was the an- swer, ‘but I expect to see the num- ber of teams in the league. consid- erably smaller. Newark and Min- neapolis both seem definitely out of it, and there are one or two others which are on the ragged edge.” “How about salapies for players; how do they run?” was the next query. “well, of course,” said Mahan, “the big stars get the big money. I understand Benny Friedman gets $20,000 a year, while Nevers, Grange and stars of that caliber also are well paid. But the ordi- nary run of players not so well known probably will average $100 per game. So, if they play 15 games a season they can point to some $1500 for their! hafa work of several months.” And, it is hard work. admits that. a “How does the pro game com- Mahan “Pro Football Harder but.

No matter how bad her life had been. No matter if she had run off with Patrick Dantry. No matter how many lovers she had known, she was right. What peo- ple said did not matter in the end. Her life had been a better life than his. There was a faint knock at the door and Hector started tp sud- denly and called, “Come in!” It was Soames with a lemon and a knife on a silver tray. He put the tray on the dressing-table and went silently into the dressing-room to return in a moment with a towel and a bow! of hot water which he placed beside the silver tray. Then he turned and said, “Is that all, sir?” “That's all.” But Soames lingered unaccount- ably until Hector cried out again in irritation: “There’s nothing the matter with me. Go to bed.” As the tall, narrow, black back of Soames went through the door he thought bitterly, “Eveh Soames has lived more than lL He had @ son who was killed in the war. Even that is better than having- none at all. He had a wife who: died, but even that is better than having none @ all.” ’ And that made him think again that tomorrow he would certainty be told that he was dying and that he had but a few months to live. Tomorrow they would have the X-ray pictures of his stomach. He could see his stomach at work, moving, digesting, in a kind of cinema they had taken of it. He could watch the thing that was kiling him at work. Ss s P himself at he dressing-table and, automatically, by long force of habit, he began to cut the lemon into thin slices and, laying them on the surface of the towel soaked in hot water, to apply them to his face. It was thus that he had preserved the soft white skin that seemed so repulsive in so old a man. a skin that was too young for the body and the bald head fringed with white hair. When he had held the towel to his face for a long time he wiped his face dry and, opening a jar of cream, began to apply it, and then suddenly he halted and, staring at himself in the mirror, thought, “Why do I go on doing this? What difference does it make, when I am dying?” Taking up the towel, he wiped the cream from his face and, ly- ing down again on the chaise longue, he took up & book and tried to read, but his mind would not follow the worde. Tonight pretty garlands and ar- rangements of empty words weren't enough. His mind kept piercing through them, going on to other things, thinking about the past and following those people who had dined with him a little while be- fore and had now gone down into the city. He kept imagining fantastic things about them, wondering where Melbourn was spending the night and whether Philip had won the actress whom he himself had never seen and somehow could not imagine save as & vague embodi- ment of all grasping and deceptive women, and whether Jim Towner was with that night club singer. et » * HEN he noticed by the clock that it was twenty minutes past three and Philip hadn’t come in yet and he thought with bit- terness and a strange excitement. “He's not coming at all. It wouldn't matter to him if I died tonight here alone. He's with that strumpet and that’s all he wants.” ’ suadenly’ that + AINFULLY. he rose and seated HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 15.

Rouben Mamoulian, who direct- ed “Porgy” for the Theater Guild and is now on the Paramount staff, told me that according to his viewpoint talking in films has been greatly overdone. “I believe in using dialogue as little as possible,” remarked the Armenian director. “After all, mo- tion pictures are primarily pic- tures. The story should be told by means of action, lights and in- cidental sound. Dialogue should be only a last resort, and should be used when it is impossible to con- vey the idea in any other way.” M longed conversation sounds flat and monotonous on the screen because the sound ap- paratus does not keep pace with the changing angles of the camera. “The audience is ‘allowed to see the action from many. different viewpoints—from close up and from far away; from one side and then from the other. The sound, however, does not vary in accora- ance with this constantly changing focus; it continues to come with AMOULIAN added that pro- If Chapfin cannot make. of the pictures made next - Thre St. Louis Post-Dispatch Daily Magazine Fate of the Up to Charlie Chaplin gg | i 4 ° - & AQ ‘There Will Be Less Conversation in the Films If Comedian’s New Silent ‘Picture Is Successful—Curious Fans Still Storm the Hollywood Studios. , 3 about the same force and intensity. “As a result, the voices soon seem monotonous, even though they are actually no more so than on the st@ge. The so-called talk- ing pictures will be much better when we have close-ups, long shots and other interesting ‘views’ of gound.” No doubt this talented director is right, but the thought of having to face close-ups of some actors’ and singers’ voices is enough to drive me out into the Great American Desert. Mamoulian is especially opposed to conversational love scenes. In real fe, love scenes are character- ized by a tninimum of talk and the words that are spoken are gen- erally clumsy and stammering. “Love episodes in pictures are much “better if handled without words,” Mr. Mamoulian said. “The emotion can be emphasized by music, symbols, or sometimes even by expressionism -— that is, from transforming the scene from what it really is to how it appears to the ecstatic eyes of the lovers.” Nobody knows how the anti- dialogue crusade is going to end. Until “City Lights” is shown, Hol- lywood will toss on its pink-edged baby pillows and seek in vain for restful sleep. s * * ISITORS, I've discovered, are the worst bane of the local stu- diés. Everybody who comes to this city under the bluish hilis wants to see how pictures are YULETIDE GIFTS FOR THE HOME haps, like charity, begin at home, but a gift to one’s own e@ expres- (rans, txc6 should not, per- house is, after all, a sion of the yule spirit. The home which is just beginning to collect its furniture may need a table or a rug; or a desk may be the missing piece. And, somehow, there always seems to be room and use for another chair. But for the home which has reached the contented state of needing “absolutely nothing,’’ there are tBe lively accessories to which we moderns have become so at- tached. Perhaps most modern of all are the tickless clocks. The most faith- ful of these eleetrical timekeepers, it seems, are the clocks which are controlled from a central power station. In spite of the fact that there is a tiny motor inside instead of the old-fashioned wheels and springs, the cases come in a variety of correct period, as well as mod- ernistic designs. : As mysterious as the ship model vogue which has been under full sail for some years, is the sudden new affection for stage coach mod- els. There is no denying their fas- cination, and they are in place on mantels, desks or tables. You may, appropriately, choose an early American stage for the living room, beautiful sight, but it had for him no reality. It was a city which belonged to young men like Phil- ip and to strong men like Melbourn. While he stood there a motor appeared dimly out of, the snow, coming westward from Fifth ave- nue. It careened a little from side to side, pushing its was through the drifts and then tuned sharply and drew up by the curb, Through the blowing snow he could not see distinctly, but it ap- peared to him that three men got out of the motor, dragging after them a bundle which they threw into a deep rift that filled the area- way of a house opposit.. Then quickly and furtively they climbed in again and the motor drove off northward along Avenue A and lost itself in the storm. oe T WAS nothing. It had no sig- nificance. But it filled him with a curious sense of foreboding as if death had passed by him in a motor and driven off again into the storm. . He put out the lights and, tak- ing off the purple and aliver dresa- ing gown, got his fat body labori- ously between the scented sheets. He tried to sleep, but it was im-. possible because he kept thinking of Philip.

Then you are ready to re- ceive one of the quaint old prints, which disturb very little the most sensitive Christmas budget.

Day after day the tall gates of the various studios are assaulted by hordes from all parts of the country. An army of information The motion pic & tere indusiry oe lieves his latest Ee film will make cr | break the telkics. clerks, uniformed sentries, and even old-fashioned bouncers, is necessary to hold the mrititudes at bay. : While sheer force is effective in keeping out the majority, there are always some resourceful souls who get in despite this almost mili- tary vigilance. At Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer I was told that from 30 to 40 people climb the fence every day. Another favorite trick is to dash up to the studios in make-up and evening dress, and tell the door- man of having been summoned hurriedly for a ballroom scene. It frequently happens, however, that these breathiess visitors appear when all the companies are away ‘on location. A Hollywood taxicab man did a thriving business for a time by getting his customers glimpses of the stars.
