HEARINGS ON LABOR CHARGES FACEJENATE Important Questions Will Be Submitted to Debate This Week. BY ROBERT TALLEY WASHINGTON, Feb. B.—With the United Mine Workers accusing the nation’s biggest railroads of a conspiracy to destroy their union by starving strikers and their women and children into submission and the American Federation of Labor charging that labor injunctions are robbing workers of their constitutional rights, the Senate faces two important hearings this week. Tire first will begin today when 100 representatives of various trades, who met yesterday at A. F. of L. headquarters, will present their case in behalf of the Shipstead bill, to outlaw labor injunctions, before the Sens*** Judiciary Committee. William Green, president of the federation, will personally direct for the bill, assisted by national and international union heads, opposing them will be James A. Emejy, general counsel for the National Association of Manufacturers, and other representatives of railroads ahd organized employers. The second hearing is tentatively scheduled to begin Friday, when the United Mine Workers will' present their case against the railroads before the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. John L. Lewis, president of the miners, is here personally to direct the union's case in this investigation. Opposing will be a small army of railroad and corporation lawyers. Senator George W. Norris, a progressive, is chairman of the judiciary committee which will hear the evidence on the Shipstead anti-in-junction bill. Senator James E. Watson, a reactionary, but a presidential hopeful, is chairman of the Interstate Commerce Committee which will hear .the miners’ charges against the railroads. The Pittsburgh Coal Company is leading the anti-union fight among the operators and behind it, the mine workers charge, looms the powerful Mellon banking interests of Pittsburgh. This company was one of the first to repudiate its wage contract with the union, insisting that continuance of the agreed scale was an economic impossibility.

THE LITTLE THEATRE NOW HAS A PUZZLE Ricca Scott Titus Does Remarkable Work in a Play That Leaves One Up in the Air for Awhile and Then Makes One Want to Talk. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN * Never has a play got me quite so much up in the air as Luigi Pirandello’s “Right You Are (If You Think You Are).” The Little Theatre at the Playhouse presented this parable in three acts for the first time in Indianapolis last night. The title of this play really explains what it is all about. And yet it is a most difficult play for me to judge. It had a strange mental reaction upon me. I believe that I was not alone in that. \
After the first act, I classified it as a “pink tea affair.” After the second act, I was mentally loud in my praise for the remarkable work of Ricca Scott Titus as Signora Frola. After the third act, I admitted to myself that I didn’t know what it was all about, because the author left me all up in the air. After the first act, several of "my friends came to me and asked what I thought of it. I have made a practice not to discuss plays. Finally, I did classify ‘‘Right You Are” to Mortimer C. Furscott as ‘‘a pink tea affair.” During the second intermission, Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks came out putting on his raincoat so he could go to a neighborhood drug store to get a soft drink. Dr. Wicks was praising the work of Mrs. Titus. After the third act I was completely up in the air because the author certainly does a strange trick just before he stops his show. I am sure that Mr. Furscott and the other directors look upon “Right You Are” as an effort of the Little Theatre to bring plays that are completely new to this. city. And in that the society Is right." I told Mr. Furscott while the play had me up in the air that I wanted

to see George Somnes as Hamlet. Right you are, if you think you are, and I think that the Little Theatre would be doing one of the greatest things of its career by presenting Somnes as Hamlet. So you can see that this play certainly makes one have thoughts ancT some emotions that are strange. * The story concerns a bunch of people in a small Italian city who are poking their nose into another families business. They decide that a certain mother is crazy and then by the same argument decide that the son-in-law is a bunch of mental nuts and then when the proof comes on the character tells you to think just any old thing that you care. The play lias been beautifully and completely mounted. It is a gem of a stage setting. Never has a cast of the Little Theatre been more letter perfect in lines than in this play and it is a difficult thing to do because it is all talk and then some more talk. But we can all agree that Mrs. Titus as the mother who is supposed
