New York, Feb. 14. "I think my daughter is doing a very serious
tiling, but there is no other alternative."
This was the comment of the mother of 18-year-old Theresa Katona,

Katona, who is Polish and speaks no English, added:
"We have no money for rent, my husband is out of work and sick; I
myself am 'feeble and we need food for the chiiuren."

Soviets Preparing
for Genoa Conference
Moscow, Feb. 14. The decree an
nouncing the suppression of the
cheka or secret police, which be
came effective yesterday, is one of
the soviet government's first steps
for putting its house in order for the
Genoa economic conference. The
next step, according to a statement
made in political circles, probably
will be the. release of poltical pris
oners. Just how far the activities of the
cheka are to be limited is yet a ques
tion. - There has been a noticeable
change in Moscow during the past
few weeks with regard to the move
ments of the cheka, but in the prov
inces the organization is still power
ful. Aside from the red army, the
cheka is the only means for main
taining order within Russia, and it

Rail Unions Divided
for Regional Meetings
Cleveland. Feb. 14. The "Kin
Four" railroad brotherhood have
divided into two groups, each of
which will conduct separate nruotia
tions with the railway managers in
regional conferences. The Drot her
itor"! of Locomotive Ensinccr will
meet the railway executives jointly
with the Urotberhood of Locomotive
Firemen and EriRinemen. The;
Brotlieliood of Railroad Trainmen
and the Order of Railway Conduct
ors will conduct their conferences
jointly.
Tins was announced tonight !y
W. G. Lee. president of the train
men, and Warren Stone, grand chief
of the engineers. Further than this,
tliev would say little.
"It is our intention in the future,"
Mr. Lee said, "to handle wage ques
tions through our regional associa
tions as we did prio to the national
negotiations carried on during; the
war period."
Charming Actress Mocks Old Man Time;
"I Will Be 59 Next Birthday," Says She
"I will be 59 my next birthday,"
said Miss Julia Stuart, leading wo
man in "The Bat," playing this
week at the Brandeis.
That's a remarkable remark for a
woman to make.
For she is a charming and beau
tiful woman, with silvery hair.
She might have told the truth by
just saying "I'm 58"' or "I've passed
the half century mark."
Or she might have strained the
truth in a perfectly all-right way and
said, "I feel 40, though I'm a trifle
older."
But Julia Stuart meets Old Man
Time more than half way and dares
him to bring on his years. Which,
perhaps, is a better plan than the
plan used by most of the fair ones.
Miss Stuart, in an interview with
a reporter for The Bee today, re
called her firsti stage appearance
Tlint was 55 years ago or "nearly
56," as she put it.
"Madame Tietjens, a famous prima
donna, came to our city in Scotland
ii. "Norma," and I took the place of
a little child in a tragic scene," she
said.
"A full house sat spellbound as the
great actress, uttering tierce gut
turals and clutching a dagger, crept
lip to the crib where I lay. I was
terribly frightened and suddenly
raised my little hands to her and
shrilled, 'We .isn't fighting, is we?'
"That took all the tragedy out of
that scene. The house roared."
She likes her present role in "The
Bat" best of all her characteriza
tions. Miss Stuart came to America' in
1879 as leading woman for E. 'A.
Sothern, father of E. II. Sothern.
Eventually but not now she
looks to retirement in a villa in
fsouthern California. She always
wears a hand-painted photograph of
her mother, attached to her dre S at
the bosom.

Our load is going to be a very lipavy

creased this month.
Our present rate is 6 rents a kilowatt
hour. The new rate is 5y2 cents
practically the lowest in the United
States.
We are shouldering the additional
burden with the hope that in the fu
ture our costs of production will de
crease and that the low rate will
bring about a greatly increased use
of electricity to warrant the new
schedule. We are doing our share to help re
