Fuel Industry Placed Under ControL
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 5.
Government control of Industry was
extended to oil in a proclamation is
sued by President Wilson last night.
This puts under license the manufac
ture and distribution of all fuel oils.
The proclamation makes no mention
of other oils or oil products, including
gasolin e and kerosene, but they, too,
will probably be put under control
soon. Authority under the procla
mation is to be vested in Mark L.
Requa, of California, recently named
as chief of the fuel administration's
oil division. Licenses must be ob
tained before February -by all man
ufacturers whose gross sales of fuel
oil, including gas oil, amount to more
than 100,000 barrels a year.

BELGIAN ARTISTS TO
GIVE BIG CONCERT
Under the auspices of the various
women’s organizations of Americus,
especially the Woman’s Club, the Bel
gian Artists will give a concert at
Carnegie Auditorium on Tuesday, Feb
ruray 12th. The proceeds will be de
voted to the starving babies of Bel
gium, the artists accepting no remu
neration save their expenses. The
German government has consented to
let the children be carried into Hol
land, where they may be fed and
nourished, and wj dare not neglect
the opportunity to save these little 1
ones. The following from the Atlanta
Constitution explains the object of
the concert and assures the music
lovers of Americus of a rare treat:
It is a long time since Atlanta has
heard a harpist of first rank, but this
romantic instrument will have delight
mul exponent in Miss Daisy Jean, an
artist of sterling reputation for ex
ceptional accomplishments, and one
who is declared to possess not only
the sturdy virtue of substantial musi
clianship, but the “divines park.” She
is one of the trio of Belgians in con
cert at the Atlanta February 16.
Her muscial breadth may be in
ferred from the fact that she gradu
ated with highest honors from the
Brussels and Antwerp conservatories
as a cello and harp player, and is also
a singer (soprano) of skill and charm.
When Miss Jean was only fifteen
years old she made a triumphant tour
Os France, playing with such celebrat
ed as Sarah. Bernhardt, Benjamin
Goddard, Monnet-Sully and many oth
ers. Miss Jean wag the ’cellist of the
concert series at Ostend, where she ap
peared every season under the direc
tion of Rinskoff.
After the bombardment of Antwerp,
in October, 1914, she crossed the chan
nel and took refuge in England, where
she participated with other Belgian
artists, in a considerable number of
charity concerts to aid her unfortunate
compatriots. In the city of London
alone Miss Jean gave seven recitals
before brilliant audiences, including
members of the British royal house
hold.
She was the soloist at the great con
cert held a few months after the out
break of the war at the Royal Albert
hall, London, when thousands literally

stormed the doors in vain for admit-'
tance.
Since coming to this continent at the
end of 1915, Miss Jean made a highly
successful tour of Canada, devoting
her talents to the relief of the Bel
gians.
Jan Collingnon is one of the found
ers of the Flemish opera in Belgium,
and before the great cataclysm had an
excellent artistic reputation in Euro
pean opera houses. On this side, since
the war began, he has been concert
izing successfully in Canada, the Can
adian newspapers giving him enthusi
astic praise.
Miss Gabrielle Radoux is another
artist whose excellence was attained
in Belgium, that music-loving country,
v.hic hhas produced some of the great
est artists of the past and present
generations, among whom may be men
tioned two of the most celebrated
now before the American public—
Ysaye and Harold Bauer. ■
