Reading Publics
Call for Varied
Literary Types
Student Authors Advised to Discard
'Temperament' in Their
Writing Work .
Bread Loaf, Vt. A century ago
the United States had a reading pub
lic; today is has not one, but rather
a hundred reading publics, with each
demanding a different type of litera
ture, Harry E. Maule, editor and pub
lisher from New York, told the stu
dent authors attending the Confer
ence on Creative Writing, which har
Just closed here.
Publishers, likewise, have changed,
continued Mr. Maule, in his descrip
tion of modern literary conditions.
"The publisher of today must be
more than a business man," Mr.
Maule stated. "He must sense the
public taste, take cognizance of its
shift, and be ready with a book when
the public wants It. He must know
art, literature, printing, papers, must
deal with artists, printers, press
men and senators, because everyone
has a story to tell if he can get It
out of. them."
Differing opinions were expressed
among the noted authors and critics
at the school as to whether a writer
should confine has activities to a
single field of literature. Margaret
Widdemer, poet, declared herself for
"literary ambidexterity." Nothing
keeps an author "fresh" as must as
writing what he so desires, from ad
vertising copy to poetic plays, she
asserted.
Temperament among writers was
condemned almost unanimously
Gorham B. Munson said: "Talent is
a gift for which the writer should
take no personal -credit. Tempera
ment is a handicap or a limitation
unless the writer knows how to har
ness it to his work."
Joseph Auslander, author of "The
Winged Horse," discussed poetry and
the difficulties encountered by the
poet in modern times. "Poets are
born but not paid." he inserted
half-facetiously. "There i s little
place today for poetry in the grand
monner. Poetry today must be brief
local, contemporaneous, clever and
inconsequential."
Drama is Sent by
Radio Television
One Act Play Broadcast Three Miles
Audience Sees Images Thru
Marvelous Devise
ScheriectardJ. .N." Y..' Sept. 11.
Broadcast television today made Its
initial, appearance as a vehicle of
drama. In a one act play, having
a cast of two characters.engineers
of the General Electric company, de
monstrated to a party of newspaper
men that television,- synchronized
with the regular form of radio broad
cast, can be used to present the radio
audience with- both the sight and
sound of drama.
The drama,', shown at the com
pany's radio studio today appeared
on a screen a few inches square and
displayed only , the head of the char
acters with the moving images of
small stage proportions introduced
as effects. The spoken portion of
the drama was broadcast thru regular
radio channels by the company's sta
tion. The broadcast of television secens
with figures in full length and back
ground in some detail is in the not
far distant future, the engineers in
dicated. This apparatus, of larger
proportions than the broadcast ap
paratus, so far has not been adopted
to broadcast wave lengths and there
fore must remain for the time being
as a laboratory demonstration, said
the experimenters.
The television apparatus used in
the broadcast of the drama was a
simplified and portable set developed
by Dr. Alexanderson. The broadcast
by the drama was made possible thru
the use of three television outfits
constituting, so far as the receiving
apparatus was concerned, a single
camera. The three units were con
nected with a single broadcasting
outfit and thru the use of a direct
or's control switch the individual ac
tion of each character was sent in
consecutive order to the rereiving
apparatus.
The broaddast was from a distanle
of three miles and on a wave length
of 397.5 meters. The image on the
television srreen possessed the clar
ity of the average newspaper photograph.-

Norris to

Insurgents
Will Not Support Hoover and Curtis ;
Silent as to Attitude on Smith
Coming to Nebraska
Senator George W. Norris of Ne
braska, leader of the insurgent re
publican group in the senate, will
not indorse the Hoover-Curtis ticket
and has declined to make any speech
es under the auspices of the repub
lican national committee during the
192S campaign.
This is the definite word re
ceived here after. Senator Norris
who has been speaking in Wincon
sin and Minnesota, had studied the
acceptance speeches of both Secretary
Hoover and Governor Smith.
The senator has further informed
his friends here that he will return
to the capital about September
and will shortly thereafter leave on
a speaking tour through Illinois
Minnesota, Montana, the Dakotas
Washington and ' probably Nevada
supporting candidates for house and
senate seats egardless of party.
Norris will wind up his "free

sive campaign in his own state of Ne
braska, where he will advocate the
re-election of his colleague, Senatoi
Robert B. Howell, also a member of
the insurgent group in the senate

he has set for himself in other states
of supporting a number of demo

The plan on which Norris wil
operate had its inception in the Pen

At 'that time, the Nebraska senator

cratic nominee for the senate, against
William S. Vare, the republican sen
ator-elect whose victory in the elec
tion is now under investigation by
a senate committee for alleged fraud
Whether Norris will go to the
length of indorsing Governor Smith
will not be disclosed until the sena

declare Norris was favorablely im

Farm Bureau's
School Studies a
Relief Problem
Dean Putnam Opens Session at Cor
nell With Plea for Better
' Farming
Ithaca, N. Y. An agricultural
relief program embracing three pro
posals of nation-wide scope was out
lined at the first session of the
American Farm Bureau Federation
training school, which has just con
vened at Cornell University.
The proposals are: first, adoption
of an agricultural policy for the
successful control of surpluses;
second, production of fertilizer at
Muscle Shoals as a means to lessen
farm production costs; third, an
adequate system of finance adapted
to meet the fiscal needs of the farm
ers. Dean Outlines Program
The program was stated by Dean
George H. Putnam, president of the
New Hampshire Farm Bureau, be
fore nearly 100 State Farm Bureau
officers, directors and national of
ficials of the American Farm Bureau
Federation. They will discuss prob
lems perculiar to agriculture in the
eastern part of the United States and
will also consider an organized cam
paign to increase the farm bureau
membership.
"For more than eight years, the
American Farm Bureau has been
striving aggressively to secure the
farmer equality under the laws and
to put the industry on an efficient
operating basis," Dean Putnam de
clared. "Its purpo.-e is to permit
those engaged in agriculture, the
most essential of all occupations, to,
have an opportunity to earn an
honest living and enjoy some of the
privileges that others are in a posi
tion to njoy."
Dean Putnam cited a need among
the farmers for closer organization ,
"to protect the interest of agriculture;
noi only in me uusiness wona ui
i.i the halls of Congress."
New Efficiency Needed
There Is a widespread need, he
added, for increased efficiency in
agriculture affairs. He said that
many farmers are still living in zhe
"wooden plow and the ox team days."
without iealizing or taking advan-ta'.-
ct the great economic changes.
II K. Eaylor, secretary of ihe Xew
Jersey Federation of County loards
of Agriculture, told the group that
much work was necessary to keep
the farmers "sold" upon the value
of organization.
"Many farmers have the idea that
the national federation caters to the
middle wettem farmer alfne," he
said. "Nearness to the big H'.arkets Is
an obstacle to an organization. Taxa
tion is driving more men off the farm
than any other one cause, and us yt
no adequate remedy has bc-en de
vised. A larger production of income
goes out for taxation on the farm
than evor before, and as a group
farmers pay disproportionately. Taxes
should be in direct ratio to the br-nefU
derived.
"The farm income is largely bent
cut for products to industrial cop
ters. In answer to the question
'Shall we keep out of politics?' I
woul say yes, but we should get a
positive statement of candidates
keep our members informed and en
courage the use of the franchise."
