Scene in "Beggar on Horseback" Portrays Art Factory Shown above is the Cady Art Factory-subsidiary of the Cady Overhead and Underground Aerial Widget corporation-as it is conceived by Valentine B. Windt in the current production of "Beggar on Horseback." From left to right, the cells contain the Novelist, the Com- poser, the Poet, and the Artist, who are forced to work in all day shifts producing love stories, jazz, hearthside verses, and magazine covers. The comedy, which ends its run at the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre tonight was proffered by the authors, George S. Kauf- man and Marc Connelly, as a variation from the ordinary American comedy and as an antidote to the worship of ma- terial prosperity. Alexander Woollcott, New York dramatic critic, commented as follows on the Broadway production: "It is a small and facetious disturbance in the rear of the Church of the Gospel of Suc- cess. When staged in the very capital of the Land of Go-Get- ters, its gesture is as defiant as that made on a not dissimilar occasion by one Barbara Friet- chie." !'I COAL MINE OWNERS, WORKMEN HOLD CONFERENCES ON HEAVY PRODUCTION PITTSBURGH, Aug. 7.-(IP)-A remedy prescribed for the ills of the bituminous coal industry, diag- nosed chiefly as over-production, held the attention of operators and miners alike today, following dis- closure that a proposal for govern- ment regulation of the business is under consideration. A majority of the leading own- ers and operators in the vast coal fields of western Pennsylvania and West Virginia withheld comment pending anouncement of the plan in full. However, other operators ven- tured that the plan suggested a so- lution of the problem of over-pro- duction which would clear the way' for adjustment of wages and work- ing conditions, major factors in the numerous walkouts in recent months. Today northern West Virgina operators let it be known they were preparing for a meeting Monday at which they would discuss the suggestion "that the government regulate the industry as a public utility." It was learned authoritatively that J. D. A. Morrow, president of the Pittsburgh Coal co., largest commercial producer of soft coal in the world, had suggested gov- ernment regulation at the recent conferences of Secretaries Lamont and Doak with a group of opera- tors in Washington. SO C IET Y Mosher Jordan halls entertained members of the faculty and stu- dents at tea Thursday afternoon.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-(IP)-A bat- tle of American maritime giants for and its fleet of north Atlantic ships control of the United States Lines loomed today as members of the shipping board continued their con- ferences on the proposed sale of the lines.
