THE NEW YORK SCENE
st eA A R . e P- R R S 2
By PAUL HARRISON
NE* YORK.—A middle-western theater owner
with an idea is causing flutterings of alarm in the
proud old heart of the Metropolitan Opera company.
For while the Met is fighting for its financial life in
dependence upon its- rich patrons, one Cecil Maberry
is watching mobs of music lovers, with quarters in
their pockets, put over his own opera venture with
a bang.
The time is not long past when Maberry didn't
know Verdi from Wagner, and this reporter cannot
testity that he does now. He’s really just a show
man; a specialist in mass production. Maberry
came out of Oklahoma, became a movie exhibitor
in St. Louis, sold films for a couple of big com
panies, made a few pictures himself, bought some
film houses in Kansas City, St. Louis and Youngs
town, Ohio. & ;
| Maberry wanted to manage a big movie and vau
deville theater on Broadway, and believed one could
b operated on 25-¢ent, admissions. And so, with a
“few associates, he took over the famous old Hippo
drome eight months ago. His plan worked until the
ummer doldrums came; then he decided to try
out grand opera. Broadway snickered. Grand opera
in the Hippodrome!—grand opera anywhere, when
the mighty Met was already weak from malnutri
tion!
. Maberry went ahead with his pans, which in
cluding hiring part of the Chicago Opera company,
with stars like Pasquale Ferrara and Louise Taylor.
‘lf people wanted good music, he'd give them a new
‘deal. Obviously they wouldn't and couldn’t pay
Golden Horseshoe prices, so he’ll sell them box seats
for 99 cents, and two bits for the gallery. After
that it was only necessary to call out a couple of
!dozen policemen to handle the crowds.
| So it seems that the Hippodrome has taken.a new
lease on life. In the 28 years of its existence the
enormous theater has grown rich in tradition, but
‘has gone into bankruptcy and been threatened
“‘with destruction half a dozen times. It was built
‘by Elmer Dundy and Frederick Thompson, who had
constructed Luna Park at Coney Island. It seated
5,190 people and its stage could, and often did, ac
““commodate a whole herd of elephants. Most mar
velous of all, however, was its tank, for the stage
floor could be lowered 17 feet on hydraulic pistons
and the whole thing filled with water within a few
minutes. It was so big that “H. M. S. Pinafore”
was produced there, on a ship floating in the water.
When Charles Dillingham took over the place in
1915, the spectacles were magnified still more. In
stead of 20 chorus girls, he used 120. The ten per
forming horses were joined by 50 more.
- Audiences of that day were awed by seeing a
company of aquatic chorines,. walking 16 abreast,
.mince down a set of stairs into the water, vanish
» ‘with scarcely a ripple or a bubble, and then not
reappear. Many people still may be puzzled, for
Dillingham never gave away his tricks. But the fact
was that the girls held their breath for only a
minute, pulled themgelves under water by sub
merged guide ropes, and came up under a concealed
apron at the front of the stage. From there they
edged along and climbed out in the wings.
For people who are going away for the summer,
pet goldfish usually turn into white elephants. Of
course, costly tropicals can be, and usually are,
hoarded by some of the snootiest pet shops; but fish
of the common golden variety just aren't worth the
trouble and expense,
This is no problem, though, for fish owners who
~have heard about the big pool in the lobby of Loew's
Lexington theater. About ten years ago a man
wandered in with a bowl under his arm and asked
the manager if he might leave his pets there for
the summer. Others heard about it and by now the
parking service is utilized to the extent that the
theater is considering installing another tank or
- two.
. About thirty times this month, according to As
~sistant Manager Miller, big cars have driven under:
the marquee and chauffeurs have alighted with
s:mall aquarinms to be ceremoniously emptied into
the lobby pool. Nobody ever succeeds in reclaiming
his fish in the autumn, since most of them look
alike. Two turtles have been deposited there this
‘year. And the other day a young lady came in
with a small, damp package which was additionally
sirinkled with tears. After a few soft endearments
~ she released an outraged baby alligator.
A more exclusive boarding place is maintained Ly
“James Hannon, the caretaker of Gramarcy Park.
‘Since this fenced rectangle may be used only by
‘residents of the hotel, clubs and apartment build
ings that surround it, Hannon will care for no one
else’s goldfish. He also endeavors to return them
to the rightful owners.
Between Twentieth and Twenty-first strees, and
Fourth and Third avenues, the park is almost the
“only section of Little Old New York that has re
mained unchanged as the city reared and spread.
~ Hannon also is rather old and changeless, having
;_'taken his job in 1902. By this time he has earned
.the gratitude of hundreds of parents, for he has
~ guarded and disciplined thousands of children who
~have romped there through the years.
For misbehavior such as throwing gravel or pick
ing flowers, Hannon metes out sentences such as
walking ten times around the park, or sitting
quietly on a bench for half an hour.
Getting back to goldfish and their bothersome
propensities, there's an epidemic among practical
jokers of giving bulky bowls of them as bon voyage
gifts. Of course no traveler knows what to do withl
them in a crowded stateroom, and the continupus]
sloshing is uncomfortably suggestive of wild waves‘
and seasickness . . . Also there's the story about*
the broker who recently returned from an unsuc
cessful deep-sea fishing trip to find his bachelor
apartment full of goldfish, They were swimming in
his bathtub, in the basin, the Kkitchen sink, his vase.
There were little two-for-a-nickel goldfish oe¢cupying
his highball glasses, and even' a few in the in- |
verted glass shade of his chandelier. Baldly shaken,
~~he decided to mix a drink and think things over.
. But thought better of it when he found a goldfiish in
each of the ice tmays of his refrigepator. - ;
Most epicures, and all veteran members of the
Liederkranz singing society of Manhattan, know
the name of Emil Frey. But few other people out
side of Van Wert, Ohio, where he lives, know that
he is the inventor, or discoverer, of Liederkranz
cheese, the only American variety to get an inter
national reputation. (What usually is called “Am
erican cheese” is really English cheddar).
Mr. Frey, who is getting along in years now,
came to New York the other day as the guest of
honor at a quietly sentimental little ceremony com
.memorating the fortieth anniversary of his triumph.
It seems that back in the early nineties he was
‘about the only cheese-maker who believed the va-
Tious processes could be reduced to a controlled
science, instead of a mysterious act of God occuyy
ring only in a few fdvored localities.
The Japanese, by skillful pruning, tying and
bending of the branches, grow miniature reproduc

many of the most important battles. He
is @ man of superior native ability, exper
ienced as an attorney and counselor at
law, His appointment will strengthen the
administration of the office to which he
has been appointed and reflect credit upon
the government,
A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
Things “aint” like they used to be. In
this day of modernism, theorists, scientists
and what nots, the old-fashion way of do
ing things has been relegated and new
fangles inaugurated. Usually the person
who has never become a parent sets them
selves up ss advisors and instructors in
the mode of raising children. The old
fashion spenking still has its place in these
modern times, according to Dr. Esther L.
Richards, professcr of nsychiatry at Johns
Hopkins University. In delivering an ad
dress before a welfare conference in lowa
City, Towa, recently, this noted psychiare
ist, said: “The good, sound spanking still
has its place in this modern world. In fact,
science has found no substitute for it. If
yvou find that your child has scattered the
contents of the ice box over the kitchen
floor, give him a sound spanking. There
is no use trying to reason with a small
child. The child will listen because he
has nothing ,better to do, but it is time
wasted in telling him why he should or
should not do a thing”. In theory, that ar
gument may sound good, and such treat-!
ment may relieve the parent or parents of
temporary annoyance, but such treatment
of the child creates a fear and a horror for
its parents which does not improve the
child in behavior nor does it place a ban
on such acts the child is bound to commit
in the future. The old-fashioned spanking
and whippings hardens the ¢hild and
causes it to become immune to such cruel
ty. Children are so constituted as to be
easily led into behaving properly, but slap
ping, spanking and whioping results only
in temporary control—and that broughton
through fear which parents should never
practice. Children are nothardened in mis
behavior; kindness, affection and coaching
is a more humane system of child character
building than the old-fashioned practice of
using the “rod”, spanking or otherwise im
posing bodily punishment.
We belicve in the old-fashion way in
many things, but not in the treatment of
children to spankings and whippings for
the little things they do that they are ut
terly unaware of having committed a
wrong or misbehaved. The parent who
displays temper, when correcting a child,
is unworthy of parenthood. Children are
not naturally disposed to misbehave and
cause their parents or nurse inconvenience
or trouble, but in nearly all such instances,
there is a reason prompting the child’s ac
tion—some ill or uncomfortable condition
that the tender age of the child does not
permit it to explain.
Regardless of the advocasies of the the
orists and psychiatrists of the use of the
old-fashion spanking, in our belief, there is
room for a difference of opinion.
OBJECTS OF CHARITY
People who are now objects of charity
and beneficiaries of the dole system pre
fer to become self supporting rather than
to accept sustenance from these agencies.
’lt is true, no doubt, that there are a num
‘ber'among the class of community depend
ents who are satisfied with conditions, and
so long as necessities of life are furnished,
no complaint will arise from them. How
ever, a majority of the unemployed prefer
to work and earn their own living and that
of their dependents.
With the inauguration of the many plans
'provided under the re-organization meas
ures of President Roosevelt, it is expected
the relief will be given to practically all of
that great army of unemployed. While
the pay of the government will not be
equal to war time pay and salaries, the
scale of pay, as authorized by the govern
ment, will enable those who work to be
come self supporting, to say .the least.
With the restoration of such a condition,
the unemployed of this- country will be
happy and satisfied.
- Government relief has' been a blessing
to the people of this country; in many in-
Ist‘ances, fathers were in dire distress and
unable to provide the necessities of life
for their families. A brighter day is here
and everyone is looking forward to the
time when the wheels of industry will be
turning creating a feeling of optimism and
self reliance that will add much' to the
comfort and benefit of those who have suf
fered from the period of depression. The
depression will soon be over, and the un
employed once again engaged in regular
work, a condition that will bring happi
ness and prosperity.

fHE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, REORGIA
PRESS COMMENT ON TALMADGE’S
. FIGHT WITH HICHWAY DEPARTMENT
Few events of recent occurrence have so aroused the press of the
state as the advent of military rule, inaugurated by Governor Talmadge
in his attack on the highway department, The governor's action is ap
plauded in a few instances, but, in the main, the press deprecates in
no uncertain terms the extreme measures invoked by his excellency.
It is impracticable to reproduce all of the comment, but below is a
digest of expressions voiced by a number of papers:
“Mello-Drammer Days” is the caption under which the Dublin
Courier-Herald says:
Few thought about it, but while national guardsmen are
strutting about the Georgia capitol in the best “melo-drammer’”’
style guarding over two millions of highway money, the state
is losing about SIOO a day interest because the money has been
taken out of the banks,
And the funniest part of it all is that it made no difference
where the money was—the wicked highway board enjoined it
just as easily in the capitol safe as if it had been in the vaults
of Atlanta banks. /
How long will the people of Georgia tolerate the childish
goings on of the Governor and the highway board,
With no attempt at subtletry, the Cordele Dispatch avers the gov
ernor’s policy is to “rule or ruin,” and continues:
Governor Talmadge has again demonstated that he is go
ing to have his way regardless cf the welfare of the state of
Georgia., His proclamation yesterday placing the highway de
partment and other branches of the state government under
martial law was just another one of Talmadge’s sensational plans
to gain more notoriety. = :
Declaring the people of Georgia are not ready for military dicta
torship, the Savannah Press says:
We do not see the end of the controversy between the gov
ernor and the highway board. Those who have studied the sit
uation rather side with the highway board, and are suspicious
of any action which would displace the two good men, and dis
miss action by the governor in turning out state commissioners
has not been attended by happy results, We do not belleve that
this last resort of calling out the guards is either}justlfled, or
will be approved by the people. Georgia is not ready for military
dictatorship, 4
As the Atlanta Georgian sizes up the aggravating situation:
Govérnor Talmadge is playing with dynamite.
The last step a conservative governor will take even in a
real emergency is to call out the National Guard and declare
martial law.
It is dangerous—the remedy is likely to be worse than the
disease.
Governor Talmadge has proclaimed the highway department
and all its camps and other properties under martial law. The
National Guard is on duty at the State Capitol—in full field
equipment with rifles loaded.
For what purpose? What is the emergency?
Are the lives or property of Georgia citizens menaced?
Is there insurrection or rebellion? Has there been flood
or famine or fire or storm? i ey oL 3 ;
Along comes the Brunswick News and propounds the following
pertinent questions: : o 3 {
What type of governor has Georgla who can not without the
ald of his military cohorts, the national guard under his com- :
mand, handle the problems of state and affairs of his executive
departments? Was Governor Talmadge afraid that by physical
power the highway-board would attempt to crash the vaults in
the state treasury to obtaifi funds which they claim is rightfully
theirs? 'Wis Governor Talmadge fearing reyolt by the mem
bers of the board and fistic combat when he had them evicted
from their offices in the state capitol? Those questions are on
the minds of most Georgians today as martial law prevails at
the capitol and Georgians are perfectly justified in asking them
selves such questions. i Lt
Services of the soldiers at the state capitol will not solve
the problems or the differences of the chief executive and the
highway board. They only tend to further antagénize the prin- :
cipals in tßie Affair and spur them to further drastic actions
to carry their points. Martial law was unnecessay in the fight '
between Talmadge, Barnett and Vereen, and is by no means an
actiofi of which Georgians can feel proud, L
As the Covington News sees it, the conflict between the governor
and the highway board is costing Georgia $5,000 a day. Says the News:
We have all realized that conditions in the road depart
men have not been what they should and we are holding no
brief for that department. We are only counting the expense of
the argument so far. The loss to the state in tag revenue has
been terrific. The loss to the state in money spent for main
taining the national guard over all the road camps in Georgia
and at the capitol is goihg to run close to $5,000 per day. The
S3OO a day lost in interest en money that should be deposited
in the bank instead of guarded in the vault at the state capitol
ks also figuring up into money. If this loss continues we doubt
if the governor can effect enough savings to offset what has
been wasted in dispute.
When it is all summed up in a nutshell, the whole procedure
is nothing more or less than a political scrimmage, looking to
the fature senatorship race in Georgia. Talmadge is only build
| ing his machine for the supreme test in that race and if he
| builds on solid rock where storm and wind cannot harm, his
future is assured, but if ke builds his future political house on
sand, the waves of adversary in the way of votes will swamp it.
- His future career wlil be interesting to watch and would
also be entertaining if it were not for the fact that the tax
‘ payers of Georgia are paying the bill. If he should fail to
make an outstanding saving in his sow with the highway de
partment, he will only have to retire to his home on the farm
and leave the taxpayers of Georgia holding the bag. On the
. other hand, if he is successful, he will some day wear the
crown of higher political honors, ;
After reviewing events leading up to the governor's spectacular
coup, the Bartow Herald (Cactersville) asserts:
It is speculative as to just what the outcome of the gov
ernor's action will be. Although Commissioner Wilhoit has
been placed in charge of the department, it cannot functon as
it should under the present sittiation. v
If there ever was a time when the Highway department
of a state should function successfully, it is now. Federal
funds are availableefor construction of roads in Georgia as
well as other states, and we cannot expect to get our part of it
all while the Highway department and th'e governor are at
dagger points,
It is a pity that the governor and the chairman of the
Highway board cannot get along better. Captain Barnett has
made the state a most valuable offfcial and is thoroughly capable
of carrying on his work. It will be hard to find a man to fill
his shoes, for he has spent his life in engineering work and
has proven his ability. -We hope that something can be done
whereby he will be retained as head of the board and that his
department will soon be’ funectioning as it has in the past,
But as the Dalton Citizen sees it, the root of the trouble may be
found in the fact that Georgia has installed a little man in a big job.
Under the sheading, “Big Job—Little Man,” the Citizen declares it is
not particularly concerned with what the governor does to the High
way department so long as he does not cripple the road building
program, and continues:
The people elected him with the full knowledge of his
capacity for bull-headedness. And there are those who will
praise him for this if he did neothing else but butt,
He is the best illustration of the litle man in a big office
we have had in Georgia in many years, This type of man feels
that being the whole show is a sign of incomparable great
ness. He is best judged by the type of man that appraises him
great.
Putting the Highway department out of business by throw
ing it out with the military arm of government is nothing more
than the show of a charlatan clothed with authority. There
was not one single event that suggested that it was necessary
to seize the higilway funds, and oust the highway department,
in order to bring abot a settlement of the controversy, if the
governor had been capable of doing team work. He is not the
type of man to do any other way than he elects to do, regard
less of results. There was no danger to the funds so long as
they remained in the state depesitories. It was all horse-play
to draw them out, place them in the state treasury with a mil
itary guard over them, and to do a lot of saber-rattling for the
delectation of the political groundlings. It ‘will in all proba
bility make him votes, but in the eyes of a sane' people it will
also stamp him as a foel. It has already done that. His proc
lamation would be all right if his alfegations were true, but
in the main they are not. Certainly the civii eourts are capable
of functioning, and steps were being taken by the Highway
department to permit them to do so when the governor seized
the works and put the miiitary in charge. :
As a news story from ‘Atlanta says, the governor is “mak
ing humself dictator of virtually all functiohs of state govern
meént” by declaring “martial’ law over the State Highwaly de
partment, the comptrollér géneral's office, the state treasury,
the secretary of “state and the office of supervisor of pur-

chases.” That sounds goose-steppy, doesn’t it? And he alsc.
threw a guard around the governor’s. manslon. That is the
sublimation of the egotism of the little man who has clothed
; ‘himself in the habiliments of an imperial dictator in the dem
ocratic state of Georgia! Listen to the martial airs as the
goose-stepping minions do their stuff! Duck, ye groundlings!
The great “Eugene, the Talmadge” (with acknowledgements
to Paul Stevenson, of Atlanta Life), appears on the heights!
He has seized the Highway department and all its money.
He evidently intends to administer its affairs to suit himsglf.
The next on the program is the seizure of the Public Service
Commission, joining it to his machine after firing its mem
. bers and packing it with his own suppliant tools, and march
; .“in well-beseeming ranks” to the martial air sos the great

. . . It's great to be a Georgian, and with the pygmy Caesars
stand!
Whether the Greensboro Herald-Journal had Governor Talmadge’s
most recent exhibition of horse-play in mind, when the following was
penned, ‘is not clear, but it could be construed as appropos in this
connection, so we reproduce it for what it is worth. Under the head
ing “Correcting a Rumor,” the Herald-Journal says:
There is a rumor all over the state, it appears, that upon
a recent' visit to Athens, Governor Talmadge had some diffi
culty with a prominent educator, and as a result the educator
whippped the governor in a physical encounter.
The Herald-Journal has investigated the rumor, and much
to our regret we find there’s not a word of truth in it.
