TARIFF DEBATE
IS Oil; LEADER
BILL TO-NIGHT:
Explains Details of Revision and
Effect on Country—Debate to
Continue Five Days.
WASHINGTON, April 22.—Deu’o-
itiv Leader Underwood opened
tariff debate in the House to-day
with ;i comprehensive statement of
the details of the new bill and an
analysis of its effect on the indus
tries of the country.
Underwood spoke extemporuneous-
\ now and then referring to the
tariff handbook and at other times
to the Ways and Means Committee's
| report. His remarks were construed
I as the “keynote” speech of the de-
Jbtite, which, by agreement, is to last
[ nve legislative days, with night ses
sions.
Mr. Underwood declared the time
I had come to remove protection from
; profits and put American business on
a competitive basis. It was un-
I American, he thought, to put a pre
mium on business inefficiency.
Progressive Header Murdock was
busy to-day on his tariff report,
| which will be presented to the
House.
The Finance Committee of the
Senate had conferences to-day with
ihose Senators who are opposing
putting sugar and wool on the free
list.
Progressives Speak.
Before Underwood began his speech
he obtained the consent of the House
to an agreement whereby general de
bate on the tariff bill will close at
whatever time the House closes on
Monday.
The Republicans will yield six hours
10 Progressive Leader Murdock to
dispose of as he sees fit.
"The Payne bill had hardly been
. nacleri into law before the men who
f .imed it began apologizing for it,”
said Underwood. "They recognized
themselves that it was not satisfac-
tory to the American people.
I do not contend that increased
- • ! living is entirely due to the
l - protective tariff system, but it is
! o say the main reason for the
i’ • - he* grown out of a taxation
s itin which aided only the large
11 uulactuyers and the privileged
Raps Tariff for Living Cost.
Underwood admitted that there has
been a world-wide increase in the
- o?t i f living, but he contended that
L lias been much larger in the JJnited
States than in countries where tariff
1 ales are not so high. "Prices will
not be reduced until merchants have
disposed of the stock of goods which
they bought under a high protective
system and they will not reduce these
prices until they are, forced to."
Says Cotton Mills
Must Cut Wages.
BOSTON, April 23.—Edwin Karri-
ham Greene, treasurer of the Pacific
Mills of Lawrence and president of
the National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers, speaking at the open
ing of the annual convention of the
association here to-day, declared that
the only chance for the cotton indus
try to meet foreign competition is by
a reduction in the wages of the oper
atives.
President Greene declared that the
industry is facing a crisis as the re-
pult of tariff legislation at Washing
ton.
Hempel Scores Remarkable Tri
umph on First Appearance Be
fore an Atlanta Audience,
Atlanta operagot 1 s who have
grumbled for three seasons because
only Italian. French and German have
been sung will have opportunity to
night to learn whether opera in Eng
lish really is preferable.
The Metropolitan company is to
sing in English for the first time in
Atlanta, anti a work given Us pre
miere in New York only a few weeks
ago will be the offering. This *s
"Cyrano,” written about ten years ago
by Walter Damrosch, of New York,
but not given a performance until last
February. It has been sung by the
Metropolitan but five times.
The opera is novel, too. in that its
title is given the baritone. Pasquale
Amato, who was accorded a veritable
ovation in his "Traviata” role yester
day afternoon, will be the Cyrano to
night. Riccardo Martin, the Ameri
can tenor, who has been among the
Atlanta favorites since the first con
cert season five years ago, will be the
Christian. The Roxane will be
Madame Frances Alda, the beautiful
Australian and the wife of General
Manager Gatti-Uasazza. It was Alda
who sang Desdemona to Slesak's
Othello so well two seasons ago.
Hertz to Conduct To-night.
Alfred Hertz, the jovial old Ger
man conductor, has arrived especially
to direct the music of "Cyrano.” Put
nam Griswold, wlio sings but a few
bars in the whole Atlanta week, came
with him. and will b*> the De Gtriche.
Albert Reiss, the little tenor'comedian,
will have the best role he has ever
sung in Atlanta as Ragueneau, the
poetic pastry cook. Rasil Ruysdae’.
the handsome basso, whose name »s
Dutch, though he is American boro, is
another late arrival for the “Cyrano”
performance.
The opera follows closely, until the
finale, the Rostand play which caused
such a furore about twelve years ago,
and in which Ooquelin in France and
Mansfield in the United States made
such great dramatic successes. The
music is said to be excellent, running
thp gamut from the frivolous comedy
of Ragueneau to the solemn and
weirdly beautiful death song of Cy-»
rano as the curtain falls. The book is
by W. F. Henderson, one of the lead
ing musical critics and writers of
New York, and adheres as closely to
the Rostand lines as Is possible in a
really "singable" libretto.
PonchiellUs “Gioconda.” with Des-
linn. Uaruso, Gilly and Homer, will be
the bill to.-morrow afternoon. There
w ill be no night performance to-mor
row.
Third Presentation of ‘‘Cyrano.”
"Cyrano," which will be presented
in the Auditorium to-night by the
Metropolitan company, is regarded by
many of the critics as the production
to meet the cry for a new and thor
oughly worthy' American onera.
That the music for the opera was
written a dozen years ago by Walter
Damrosch does not in the least de
stroy its characteristic of newness,
for it received its first presentation
only last February* when it was
staged in New York. It was given a
second time in the metropolis and to
night it will have its third presenta
tion.
The book, following in Its plot many
of the essentials* of Rostand's "Cyrano

Work Is Melodious.
Mr Damrosch says of his own
work:
"It i« not a music drama; it is an
opera. I have gone to older models
than Wagner. The scoring is light;
the work is melodious. There aTe set
arias and the singers have as much
melody to sing as the orchestra,"
A pleasing scenic effect in the first
act is the reproduction of a tiny thea
ter in the Hotel de Bourgogne in 1640.
Soon after the arrival of the minia
ture theaters audience of cavaliers,
burghers, lackeys, pages and fiddlers,

Damrosch describes as based on the

Style and savoir-faire seemed to
radiate from the stalwart, erect figure
that made its way leisurely along
downtown Peachtree to-day. Military
precision was there, and ye! a natural

A tailor, measuring a customer,
glanced out into the street and saw
the figure pass his shop door. He
rushed to the door and gazed at the

ultra-correct trousers, with eyes of
artistic appreciation. Then he went

An automobile sped along the street
with a long-drawn blast of a siren
whistle. Four girls saw the stalwart
figure,
"Gee, It’s Scotti!”
“Ou-u-u-u-u." Four blended gasps
echoed the siren and resounded above
it. The automebile slowed and turned.
"It's Scotti," said the girl at the

NEW YORK, April 23. The "open
letter to railroads” printed by the
New York American ia cordially in
dorsed by Julius Kruttschnitt, chair
man of the board of the Southern
Pacific Company, He declare.-
"The most effective way to «e-
cure relief from the oppression
under which the railroads are
suffering is to secure the aid and
co-operation of the general pub
lic, of voters^ in controlling tire
politicians."
Mr. Kruttschnitt' made the- state
ment in answer to The American's
open letter urging that steps‘be itaSten
by the heads of railroads to alleviate
—harassment they have complained
of so bitterly
Mr. Kruttschnitt explained that the
Southern Pacific had been co-operat
ing with farmers, boards of trade
and the public in general to obtain
relief by way of the ballot for The
railroads. That this work is having
beneficial results was reflected by the
action of the people of Oklahoma and
Texas in turning down oppressive
laws dealing inimically with the rail
roads.
It was also the belief of Mr. Krutt
schnitt that the decline in the credit
of the railroads, as reflected .by a
falling market for their bonds, was
due to* the increased burdens imposed
upon the roads by the legislators
and to constant attacks.
"The railroads of the United
States," said Mr. KruttsChnitf, “Were
never in better physical condrtimi«nor
more economically operated ..than they
are now, but the activities of the poli
ticians prevent people from invest
ing in them. because nobody
wants to buy into a property that is
being pounded .and hammered all the
time"
Mr. Kruttschnitt. referring to the
open railroad, letter printed by thq
American, said:
t think the suggestions' nlhde fry
Mr. Forbes, fn the New York Amer
ican are very good. The officers re
sponsible for the management of rail
road properties realize the increasing
difficulty of securing from legislators
in matters vitally affecting their in
terests. We realize the most effec
tive way u> secure relief from the
oppression under which tin* railroads
are suffering is to secure the aid and
co-operation of the general public of
voters ii^ controlling the politicians.
The only States in which legislation

been those in which the assistance

VICE CRUSADERS
Atlanta Now Cleanest City in
America. Says Washington
Sociology Expert.
Paying high tribute to Chief BeaV-
* rs and Marion Jackson for their suc
cessful campaign against commercial
ized vice in Atlanta, Wilbur F. Crafts
to-day declared the South in a few
years would ‘become the cleanest and
most moral part of the world.
Mr. Crafts is superintendent of the
International Reform Bureau, witn
headquarter- in Washington. He is
in Atlanta to attend sessions of the
Southern Sociological Congress, which
begin Friday.
One of the first things Mr. Crafts
did after his arrival was to go to
headquarters for a conference with
Chief Beavers on the details of the
anti-vice campaign waged here.
"It is patent." he said, "that vice
has gone from Atlanta to stay. With
such a man as Beavers in charge of
the situation it can not come back. I
had heard much of the city, but I was
surprised beyond my expectations at
finding it morally the cleanest city In
America. Atlanta lias gone at ths
problem in the only effective and log
ical method—by instant extermina
tion.
Dr. Crafts is known in Washington
as "Speaker of the Third House.”
Fourteen laws written by him have
been passed by Congress. While in
Atlanta lie will deliver addresses to
the Boys’ and to the Girl's High
Schools, as well as to several churches.
Sunday night he will speak at the
Harris Street Presbyterian Church.
