'PIERCE SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1933 individual who is looking only to his immediate future such an inducement is powerful indeed. Possibly he intends later on to continue his edu- cation, but with good pay come a high standard of living and increased wants and needs. Almost invariably the boy who chooses to work rather than to go to college builds up his needs to a point just short of his income. Nearly always, too, before the intention of going on with education has materialized the boy has married and has established a family for whose support he is re- sponsible. And then all hope of advancement other than any that is possible from the ranks of the laborer is lost. But wherever the laborer comes in contact with the college man he invariably voices the opinion that the latter is "lucky," that he "wishes he had had a chance." In the great majority of cases the old opportunity plea is nothing more than pure bunk. Opportunity is simply the will to sacrifice present benefits for those that will materialize to greater advantage in later years. Does the college man tread the primrose path? He does not. In virtually every profession and business he is taken in as little more than an apprentice. His wages at the start are very seldom as high as those of the laborer just out of high school. The pick-and-shovel man complains and sobs, but his real complaint is against his own discarded opportunity. When hard times come along the complaint again is from labor-they have families to support, they have responsi- bilities. Is the college man any less hard hit? Today there are more unemployed laborers only because there are more laborers. A percentage of college- trained men at least as large as that of the un- schooled laborers has been thrown out of work. The misfortune of our present-day civilization has fallen equally on both classes. The important dif- ference is that in the college-trained class there is advancement, there is an opportunity to climb beyond the starvation wage of the beginner. A laborer remains a laborer not because he "didn't have an opportunity," but because he didn't grasp the opportunity that was offered. The Theatre. whole setting, from Johnson's personal attendance as presiding officer to the unusual rules promul- gated to govern proceedings, flowed from much the same thought that prompted the fish bowl method of the first draft drawing. It was all designed to bring the vitally essen- tial element of public confidence and support to the aid of the government in attempting an un- precedented "partnership" with business. The procedure significantly was marked by that public audience idea. It also reflected experience on the part of Johnson and his associates with what so often happens before Congressional com- mittees. No matter what the subject under considera- tion, any Congressional committee is always in danger of drifting off into legal, even constitu- tional, arguments. There also is a tendency to in- voke court rules and procedure which makes dif- ficult hewing to the line of inquiry. No Court Atmosphere The industrial codes will be worked out in hear- ings free of much of this. Legal attack upon the act or regulations is excluded. Every one appear- ing must come in the role of witness, to be ques- tioned by the administrator or his deputy. There is no room for cross examination by op- posing parties or any other procedure character- istic of courts.

T IS INTERESTING to note, as pointed out in an editorial of The Daily Iowan, reprinted on this page,uthe srecent developmnents in the field of good 'music and its acceptance by the masses. Present-day results in this respect are only the answer to a trend which has been going on for some time. In past years, only because they 'were the only ones able to afford self-idulgence, the richer classes were considered the group capable of proper appreciation of fine music, good liter- ature, excellent acting. The less fortunate were forced to content themselves with that nearest at hand; reproduced cheaper music, movies instead of the opera, and lithographs instead of oils. Now, with mass production and mass accept- ance the current by-word, the taste of the less wealthy has been cultivated. Or,. rather, the taste of the less wealthy has been catered to and given notice. It would be indeed crude to doubt that such an inherent aesthetic nature did not always exist. In connection with this wider acceptance of the finer things in life, it is pleasing to see what prog- ress is being made locally in this respect. The De- troit Symphony Orchestra started last week a series of summer programs which are open to the public. Presented in the open, from a shell espe- cially constructed for the purpose, this, fine or- ganization offers the best in music fbr any who care to listen. As the editorial from The Daily Iowan states,' it is no longer necessary to sit in a gilded box to appreciate Aida. MRS. G. MARTINEZ-SIERRA By DAVID MOTT The lovely role of Rosario in "The Romantic Young Lady" in which Martha Ellen Scott is mak- ing such a charming appearance this week at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre cannot be attributed to G. Martinez-Sierra. This article is not in the nature of an expose on the Michigan Repertory for advertising one thing and giving the public another. It is merely to say that Mrs. Martinez- Sierra is the power behind husband Gregorio's literary throne-that she is responsible for the striking feminine portraits that dominate his work. HOLLYWOOD-Louise Dresser and Jack Gard- ener have had the laugh on certain skeptical friends for a quarter of'a century. Louise was a musical comedy ingenue and Jack was an actor when they were married-they.cele- brated their twenty-fifth anniversary the other day-and some who knew them didn't think the marriage would take. "The Gardeners will be talk- ing to their attorneys in less than a month." said some. Says Louise proudly: "We've never talked to at- torneys about anything but contracts." Gardener, slender, youngish-looking and 50, for- merly was a casting director, now is an actors' agent. Louise thinks that next to "The Goose Woman," which made her a star in 1925, "State Fair" gave her her best part. And of her, Phil Stong, who wrote the Iowa classic, said: "Miss Dresser, of all the players in the film, most nearly fitted the character I had in mind when I wrote the story." Up From Vaudeville Long time Vaudevillian Roger Imhoff, out of re- tirement and into the movies, says sameness killed vaudeville, but that the actors were not to blame. "I was not to be allowed to play any act other than one called 'The Pest House'--a skit laid in a small town hotel-for the last 15 years I was on the stage." Managers refused to let me change, even to give me a rest. I did that act thousands of times. Other standard acts went on year after year because the heads of the circuits insisted." Imhoff, who played a broad Irish comic for 40 years, is mostly Swiss. His mother was of Irish descent. She Tells Report has it that when Betty Compson's "My Eighteen Years in Hollywood" comes out, a lot of people are going to get a shock. Betty has had much to say about Hollywood friendships. When Louise Fazenda's son reaches the age of three months she will return to the screen after, more than a year's absence. He's nearly two months now. Mae West is investing her money in stone work. I'm told she has bought a diamond weighing 17 and three-quarter carats.

While her name never appears on the title page her ideas of womanhood and her feminine understanding of women are to be felt in every line. Much of the actual writing has been done by her. Temperamentally the two are quite different, which accounts for the striking combination of actuality and ideality one finds in works bearing the name of G. Martinez-Sierra. Mrs. Sierra is a very brilliant Spanish woman, but very simple and practical in her tastes, not at all poetic oreavid ofsbeauty. She believes that art should have a message to deliver. She is a great feminist, and leader of the movement for more enlightened womanhood in Spain. She has done more than any other Spanish woman to awaken her country-women to a sense of civic and social responsibility. She has represented Spain at several of the International Congresses of women. With the husband it is art for art's sake. So he easily accepts his wife's ideas as substance for his plays. Ideas aren't so important to him so long as they could be treated beautifully. Thus the combination of Senor and Senora Sierra is a lucky one. Her ideas save his work from having the characteristic weak-kneed quality of most Impressionist (art for art's sake) writers. The combination is the reason why the women of Sierra's plays have brains (like Rosario) and are the intellectual equals of their husbands.! And it is the reason why the women of Sierra's plays have not the propagandist quality of Mrs. Sierra's lectures on womanhood (which are re- knowned throughout Spain). Each saves the other from his worser self, and it would be difficult to say which is the better half. It is to be hopedthatmuch work may yet come from these two brilliant minds and one may safely say that their splendid optimism, their sane views on life, and the delicate charm of their style will assure them a place in the literary history of the world.

Comp1ainit Labor... Editorial Comment Iwr + -TTUNQUESTIONABLY, in this day of U economic disaster and turmoil, the laboring classes have many just complaints against society and the capitalistic system. Many adjustments must be made and class distinctions swept away. But in spite of today's problems and new difficulties--ndeed grown stronger because of them-an insistent voice of prejudice against the college-bred white-collar man can be plainly heard. Anyone who has worked with unskilled laborers knows the cry; the college man gets more pay, he doesn't work as hard, he has an unreasonable prejudice in his favor. And he will know also that the one who complains the loudest, who criticizes most violently a system which places such a prem- ium on an academic education, is the one who had an opportunity to continue his studies and turned it down. By far the greater proportion of American-born laborers remain laborers all their lives because, instead of continuing their studies after secondary school, they preferred to begin immediately to earn money. Modern educational systems make it possible for all but the most impoverished to avail themselves of educational advantages. There are, of course, many cases where further education, be- cause of family circumstances, is impossible, but, arong the American-born at least, it is by far not the rule. During normal times it was always possible for an industrious young man to work his way through school; even when this was not desirable, he could always work for a year or two in order to save enough money to assist with expenses. The fault is not with the system, it is in the ndividual. Today, of course, times are abnormal, and only the more fortunate are able to attend college, or, indeed, are able to find jobs of any kind. But during the years when business was at the boom peak and opportunities were open for everybody the complaint of the self-responsible laborer was A Washington BYSTANDER By KIRKE SIMPSON WASHINGTON-Perhaps Hugh Johnson, ad- ministrator of the industrial recovery act, found his figure of speech to describe how industrial fair-practice codes were going to work out under public scrutiny in his experience with his last big government service, the draft act operation. He said the codes would be framed "in a gold- fish bowl." It was out of a goldfish bowl that the 10,000 numbers were drawn in 1917 under John- son's supervision to establish the order of call for some 10,000,000 men. Looking back to that red-letter day of the first draft drawing in a senate committee room, John- son recalls the fish bowl idea as "window dress- ing." It was designed to create public confidence in the scrupulous fairness of the system by which men should be summoned to the colors. But it was not an essential part of the draft machinery. Many other ways of fixing the order of call be- fore draft boards could have been used. The value OPERATIC PROFITS Intellectualists have long berated the public for its lack of taste. Persons of great musical attain- ment have simply regarded the public with con- tempt, not even stooping to berate. Particularly has this been true of those who, with a prideful feeling of philanthropy, take it upon themselves to sponsor the, production of opera in the great cities. Appeals for support have usually been: to the elite, to the wealthy, to the aristocratic. Thus it came about that it has been impossible to tel: whether the drawing attractions at the great opera theatres were the operas or the audience. In the rare cases where the managements have appealed to the general public, admission prices usually have been so exorbitant that the public was unable to respond. Managements concluded not too logically, that here was added proof of the degeneration of the masses. They might have known better. First rate music at the Hollywood Bowl and the Wagnerian festiv- ities at Bayreuth have consistently drawn appre- ciative multitudes. Recently this fallacy was once more demon- strated in New York when Cecil E. Mayberry and William A. Carroll, just a couple of-sensible busi- ness men, turned away hundreds of customers every night who scrambled for 99 cent Hippo- drome seats to witness Verdi's spectacular Aida produced under the direction of Alfredo Salmaggi Three blocks away, meanwhile, public donations were being solicited tearfully for the support of the Metropolitan Opera. House, where seats sold for $7. The Hippodrome was making'money; the Metropolitan Opera was on its last financial legs begging for alms. Perhaps, if this lesson is well enough learned, the public will some day be given a decent chance to demonstrate that, even though it can't afforc to sit in a gilded box, its appreciation for good music is just as real as any millionaire's. -The Daily Iowan. 1 s t a t l t a s :. ., A n v A S y . s a A S y 46 , '4 .

Unless the pen is a Parker Duofold, your hand is apt to foul the point, or change its action. Don't expose yourself. Stop at the nearest pen counter and pick the Parker Duofold that fits your hand to a "T." You'll be prepared then for any emergency- even for lending-gracefully. For no style of writing can foul, or alter Parker's miracle Duofold point. Still it writes as easily as you breathe -with amazing Pressureless Touch!

Yet none has Parker's stylish,balanced, stream- lined design-"America's Shape- liest"-or Parker's Invisible Filler, or Patented Clip that lets the pen set low and unexposed in the pocket.
