'American Women
To Study Problems
Of Sex in Europe
Y.W, C. A. Commission Aims
to Create Closer Rela?
tion Among Feminine
Workers for Mutual Aid
The first expedition of it? kind in
go to Europe from the United States
sets sail to-day on tho Noordam. It is
a women's industrial commission which
the National War Work Council of the
V. W. C. A. is sending abroad to meet
women labor leaders in England, (
France, Italy, Belgium and Switzer?
land, i
Members of tho commission include
Misa Mary Dreier, representing the
National Women's Trade Union League;
Mrs. Irene Osgood Andrews, of the
American Association for Labor Leg?
islation; Miss Nellie Swartz, of the
National Consumers' League of Amer?
ica; Mrs. James S. Custiman, chairman
of the National War Work Council of
tho Y. W. C. A.; Miss Florence Simms,
Miss Marie Wing, of Cleveland, Ohio,
and Miss Imogenc Ireland, all of the
Y. W. C. A.
The commission will pass about ten
days in each country, returning to
America at the beginning of Juno. A
programme of the standards which
inch country considers necessary for
its women workers will he discussed
nnd recommendations will bo formu?
lated by individual groups.
Purpose of Trip Stated
Miss Florence Simms, head of tho
industrial department of the Y. W. C,
A. and originator of the plan to go
abroad for investigation purposes,
says:
"Tho war has forced upon us inter?
national relationships in all things
and our contact with women in other
countries has caused us to include the
industrial life of all women in our
international outlook.
"America has a splendid opportunity
to serve the women of other countries.
A general lowering of industrial
standards in Europe inevitably means
retrogression in the United States
through the forces of competition. The
time is ripe for women interested in
the larger life of their fellow workers
to counsel together and shape definite
plans for a wider fedoration of women
workers."
New York Lea?is in
Care of Ils Babies,
Dr. Baker Declares
Director of the Bureau of
Child Hygiene Praises the
Work of Welfare Associa?
tion at Annual Meeting
At the sixth annual meeting of the
Babies' Welfare Association, held at
the Russell Sage Foundation yesterday
afternoon, New York was credited by
Dr. S. Josephine Baker, director of the
Bureau of Child Hygiene of the De?
partment of Health, with having the
lowest infant mortality of the ten larg?
est cities in the United States. This
was largely due to the activities of the
association, she declared- During the
last year 11,558 cases were handled and
of these 8,933 were under one vear old.
Dr. Baker traced the history of the
Rabies' Welfare Association from its
beginning.
"It has become such a force in the
community," she said, "that if it were
to stop operation for a week concerted
action would be taken to get it going
again."
"Tho time has come now, if ever, ?
for us to emphasize our homo chari- i
ties," said Dr. Henry Chapin, who j
presided. "The war is over. Do not '
let us forget that a baby in Riving
ton Street is worth just as much as
a baby in Belgium."
The following directors wer'.? elected
for three years: Dr. Murray Bass,
Academy of Medicine; Dr. Roger II. I
Dennett, New York Post-Graduate Hos- i
pital; Dr. Charles Herrman, Lebanon ?

6Editor Emeritus'
Doesn't Fit ideas
Of Col. Wattersoiii
That's Why He Is No Longer
Connected With "Louis?
ville Courier - Journal";
Kefuses to Talk Politics
ColonoMIenry Watterson, for fifty
one years editor of "Tho Louisville
Courier-Journal," and for all of that
timo a conspicuous Democrat, at last
has severed his connection with "The
Courier-Journal," although the pres?
ent management desired to continue
him as "editor emeritus." Colonel
Watterson, who is at the Prince
George Hotol for a few days, says
that being the "emeritus" editor of'a
newspaper did not lit in with his ideas
of journalism.
Colonel Watterson makes no con?
cealment of his opposition to Presi?
dent Wilson's policies, both with ref?
erence to the league of nations and
his general attitude toward the Demo?
cratic organization, but he said he did
not wish to talk politics. Colonel Wat?
terson was elected president of the
non-partisan Society for the Preser?
vation of American Independence,
formed by George Wharton Pepper,
Senator Reed, of Missouri, Henry A.
Wise Wood, of New York, and others
for the express purpose of opposing
President Wilson's league of nations.
"For the present," said Colonel Wat?
terson, "I wish to be excused from dis?
cussing politics, tho leaguo of nations
and kindred subects."
The Southern newspapers freely dis?
cuss Colonel Watterson's break with
tho Democratic party and interpret it
as a serious defection from their ranks
for the 1920 campaign. Kentucky Dem?
ocrats fear the result in the Blue Grass
and contiguous states, where Colonel
Watterson has a large following. The
Louisville Congress district, represent?
ed for years by Swager Sherley, went
Republican last fall, despite tho most
strenuous efforts of the Wilson mana?
gers to save Sherley. The loss of the
district is regarded in the South as an
augury of the loss by the Democrats
of both Kentucky and Missouri in 1920.
Bronx Gas Rate Argued
Supreme Court Justice Georgo V.
Mullan listened to arguments yester?
day as to what the gas rate in The
Bronx should be in the future. The j
matter came before him in the form of '
a motion by The Bronx Gas and Elec?
tric Company for a preliminary injunc?
tion to enjoin tho Public Service Com?
mission, District Attorney Martin, of
Bronx County, and Attorney-General
Newton from enforcing the statute
fixing the maximum rate for gas at ?1
per thousand cubic feet.
The company, besides seeking to en?
join the county officials, also asks that
it be not interfered with in its an?
nounced intention of fixing the rate at
$1.50 per thousand cubic feet,
Justice Mullan reserved his decision
after directing the representativos of
both sides to present all papers in the
case not later than Monday next.
Massachusetts A ssembly
Wants Peace., Then League
BOSTON, April 8.?The House to?
day concurred with the Senate in the
adoption of a resokui-on demanding tho
eariy conclusion of peace with Ger?
many and urging that the question of
the formation of a league of nations be
deferred until the peace treaty is
signed. The voto in the House was 00
to 26.

Drama
"A Good Bad Woman" at the '
I larris; Matinee of
?'Sliakuntala"
By Heywood Broun
Somehow or other wo always find '
a certain inadequacy in any play by a
gentleman which deals with the psy?
chology of a lady who is expecting.
To us such a play carries the same '
lack of conviction as an intimate
story of the Paris conference written ?
by a correspondent stationed in Wash- ;
ington. William Anthony McGuire's !
obstetrical littlo drama called "A
Good Bad Woman," produced at the
Harris Theatre last night, seemed to
us to fall into this class. We were
never suro of its truth, because in
the caso of much of its material we
knew that Mr. McGuiro could not pos?
sibly be writing of his own knowledge.
The atmosphere of "it is learned on
good authority" and "we are reliably
informed" hung heavily over the en?
tertainment.
The theme of criminal abortion
which Mr. McGuiro has chosen as a
subject for an evening's diversion in |
the playhouse is not particularly fa- j
miliar in the theatre, but.whatever un- I
easiness may be caused by this fact |
is shrewdly mitigated by tho play
Wright's device of using a dramatic |
technique without a single novel feat- I
ure. Every serious scene is followed j
by a scene of comic relief. This Bys- |
tern, which we understand is cla.ssi- ;
tied in the textbooks as "sandwich ;
technique," has gono out of fashion I
a bit in tho last fifty years, but it is
by no means unfamiliar. Moreover,
nothing ever happened in "A Good
Bad Woman" without, tho most elabo?
rate preparation and the broadest of i
hints to tho audience. This is known
as foreshadowing. Mr. McGuiro has
also been most industrious in invent?
ing excuses for his characters to come
on and off at the precise; moment he
has need of them. The fact that many
of tho excuses are. very bad should
hardly bo held against the playwright.
It is to his credit that he has tried
his liest to justify every exit and en?
trance in an ago in which many play?
wrights merely whisk people on and
oil* without asking leavo from any one.
"A Good Bad Woman" is a propa?
ganda play against abortion which is
treated in a frank and severe manner.
The physician of tho play stater, it as
his opinion that it is justified by no
circumstances whatsoever. Tho hero?
ine of the play, under the bad advice
of a villanous woman friend, seeks
to avoid motherhood. The physician
to whom she is sent deceives her into
thinking that her wish has been ac?
complished. She repents and is re?
morseful, particularly when her hus?
band learns of her plan and threatens
to divorce her and shoot, tho doctor.
Before these threats can be turned
into accomplishment the doctor con?
fesses that he merely deceived the er?
ring woman in order to teach her a
lesson.
We should catalogue "A Good Bad
Woman" as a rather weak play about j
abortion, but this is not intended as i
an appeal for stronger plays on the
same subject.
The play is written with such an ob?
vious effort for theatrical effect that
the author seldom achieves his object.
Thore are few opportunities, therefore,
for the actors. Margaret Illington,
Robert Edeson and Wilton Lackaye,
who are cast in the chief roles, have
little opportunity to distinguish them?
selves. Kichard Taber, cast in a small
comic part, is amusing, and Amy Ong
ley manages to get some fun out of the
character of a comic servant with no
groat help from the. author. Perhaps
tho most amusing incident in tho play
occurs in the second act, when Mr.
Lackaye and Mr. Edeson givo the Har?
vard cheer.
"Shakuntala," produced at the Green?
wich Village Theatre at a special mati
ness yesterday, is moro than 1,400
years old, but several of its themes
are still in use on the American stage.
This old Hindu drama by Kalidasa
proved always picturesque, often
charming and occasionally dramatic
from iho modern point of view. There
were other stretches, however, when
it was severely dull to any one except
a student of tho drama. The play deals
with the love of a king for a maid
and recounts how the woman overcomes
a curse and regains tho love of the
king through the virtue of a ring.
The costumes and settings of Liv?
ingston Piatt are beautiful, the stand?
ard of acting is not so high. The
acting version has been prepared by
Frank Conroy and Charles Henry j
Meltzer from the translation of Sir
Monier Monier-Williams. The adapt
to rs have done a good job on the whole,
although while they were at their
compressing they might have squeezed
a little harder here and there. Prob?
ably tho best performance was that
of Mr. Conroy. Joseph Macaulay a:'
the King acted moderately well and
did much better than that in tho sing?
ing of somo charming incidental music.
Beatrice Prentice as the heroine we
found a bit too mannered. Even a
Hindu maiden in a ilfth century play j
must have moments in which she for?
gets that she is a Hindu maiden in
a fifth century play.
Harold Meltzer aided tho perform- j
anco very largely on tho pictorial side
by his effective appearance in a cos
tumo which showed his huskinesB to
the-best advantage. But this reminds!
us of a story they used to tell about I
l'eter Jackson, the negro pugilist, who
was put on tho stage on the strength
of his athletic prowess. His manager
went around in front at tho end of the
first act to learn the verdict. lie
sought an opinion from a critic who
was also a fifrht fan.
"It's like this," said the critic. "Ana?
tomically he's a wonder. Uncletomatic
ally he isn't."
However, wo ought to ndd that Melt-|
zor's performance, aside from the pic- !
torial, was adequate, even if this dulls
the point of the story. We did not
think Geoffrey Stein was up to his
usual standards.
"Come Along" Opens
At IS ora Hayes Theatre
vein of humor in the lifo of the dough?
boy of tho A. E. F. its profusion of
aviators, motor corps girl:., Salvation
Army girl.., members of the A. E. P.,
et. al, are a ?spiritless procession. The
soldier shows themselves have set a
higher standard for tho war musical
comedy than this can follow.
Bido Dudley wrote the book, which is
as innocuous as that of any pre-war
musical piece. The absurd rivalry of
two young men for a girl is settled at
a chateau in France, where tho three
principals meet with great precision
after having parted to go their several
ways in New York. The music and
lyrics are by John Louw Nelson. The
music was jingly and sometimes catchy,
though the lyrics were uniformly dull.
Harry Tighe is spontaneous and
amusing in the r?le of a fat sentimental
mess sergeant. And Mlle. Marcelle
Carroll is a delightful soubrette. She
made her part of a flirtatious French
village girl the bright spot in the show.
The rest of the cast were quite undis?
tinguished. On the whole, this show
does not rise to te level of the*sea. on's
musical offerings.
"Come-On Charley" Has
All the Complicalions
"Come-On Charley," labelled a fable,
by George V. Hob'art, opened at the
Forty-eighth Street Theatre last night
It is a dream play, with more com?
plexes than the league of nations. Be?
ginning in n lawyer's oflice, it rambles
to Stamford, Conn.; backs up to a
Broadway hotel, digresses into a
haunted house in the country, and re?
turns to a rude awakening in tho law?
yer's office. Into these environs are in?
troduced the most extraordinary con?
gregation of characters seen in many a
season.
Come-On Charley is a c.erk in a
Stamford shoe store, for whoso benefit
a forgotten and remote uncle (as re?
mote as Shanghai) dies and leaves a
legacy of $10,000. The attorney to
whom the legacy is intrusted has a
theory. He tells the lad that this is
merely a first instalment on -the uncle's
estate, paid to him on condition that he
make $500,000 within six months, believ?
ing that this will stop him from squan
him to multiply it. Charley is no piker.
him to multpily it. Charley is no piker.
Within three weeks lie has turned the
trick, not by one trick alone, but by a
grand slam.
Charley uses up nearly all the meth?
ods known to the stage of getting rich
quick. lie hacks a broken-down in?
ventor, plays tho stock market, re?
covers the world's largest ruby from
a passel of crooks and even beats the
shell game. By his seeming inno?
cence and readiness io part with his
money he camouflages his native com?
mon sense. In a plav that is a riot of
unrealities Charley is roa!. To what
extent, this is due to the. fine comedy
sens'.? of Lynne Overman it would be
difficult to determine. With a thin
physique, thin voice and a stage pres?
ence so quiet that, he accentuated the
loudness of the rest, of the cast, he
made his lightest points with a sure
ness that marked him as a comedian
to be remembered.

Two Feminine Pianists, One of
Them for First Time, Are
Heard in Recital
The pianists continue to be very
? much with us. There were two of them
j who appeared yesterday afternoon, one
' at Aeolian Hail and one at tho Princess
! Theatre. Miss Carolyn Willard, whose
recital was at the latter house, was a
?newcomer, but little could be said of
j her except that her playing was con
I scientiou3. There were, among other
I things on her programme, a Pastorale
j and Capriccio of Scarlatti, Bach's D
i minor Chromatic Fantasie and Fugue,
j tho Brahms Rhapsody, op. 119, three
; preludes and tho C sharp minor
! Scherzo of Chopin.
Miss Winifred Byrd, who was giving
her third recital of the season at
?Aeolian, is an artist of a talent dis
! tinctly superior to the average run of
pianist. She has a fluent, even, bril?
liant technique, a keen intelligence
and impeccable taste. Her playing
yesterday of the Brahms B minor
Rhapsodie was a truly admirable per
I formanco, warm in tone and bcauttful
