TOWN MEETINGS TO CONCLUDE TONIGHT
Which Road to Peace' Is Topic; Queena Mario Is to Appear on Pittsburgh Symphony Program
4 Speakers Are to Present Their Views in Forum Talks at 7:30. Failure to recognize the last broadcast of Americas Town Meeting, NBC-WJZ at 7:30 tonight, would be to slight radio's outstanding serious program. With a forum on world peace, America’s Town Meeting will terminate a highly successful season which we believe has been instructive to countless listeners. Fitting tribute for its courageous undertakings was recognition recently b> the Women’s National Radio Committee which named it the outstanding serious program of the season now ending. For unquestioned success oi America 8 first attempt at unbiased political, social and economic discussions on a nation-wide scale, let praise go to George V. Denny, who arranged and led discussions of highly controversial subjects as few men have the courage to do. Called "Bravest Man” If any one believes leaders of divergent, movements can’t precipitate lively, heated arguments, he hasn’t listened to America’s Town Meeting. Its director sometimes is called “America’s bravest man” because he dared bring together on one program speakers known to be opposed. Tonight’s topic is to be “Which Road to Peace Now?” Speakers are to include Albert J. Passage of Mt. Vernon, N. Y., winner of a nationwide contest for the best letter on the peace planks he believes should be incorporated in political party platforms; Nicholas Roosevelt, former United States minister to Hungary and former vice-governor of the Philippines; Senator James P. Pope of Idaho, and Norman Thomas. Socialist leader. It is unfortunate that during a campaign year America’s Town Meeting is to leave the air, even for the summer. It certainly is to be hoped listener response has been sufficiently great to insure its return early next fall. Baa The latest variation of amateur: contests is to be aired by NBCVVEAF at 9 tonight In a broadcast from the American Mining Congress Convention in Cincinnati. Contest entries will be restricted to men actually engaged in coal mining. The winner is to be given a trip to the Pittsburgh coal fields, all expenses paid. Something like sending a postman on a hike for a holiday, we think. o u tt FOR Republicans—and Democrats who are interested Herbeit j Hoover and Senator William £. Borah will take to the air at 6:30 tonight, Mr. Hoover to discuss ‘ A Republican Program” on CBS (WFBM) and Mr. Borah to speak on NBC-WJZ in behalf of his campaign

Metropolitan Artist Is to Sing Excerpt From Debut Role. BY JAMES THRASHER Despite her Italian sounding name, Queena Mario, soloist on tonight'." Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra program, is from an American family dating back to Revolutionary times. She was born in Akron, 0., and christened Queena Mario Tillotson. From her father. James K. Tillotson, a Civil War drummer boy v.ho grew up to see his plays produced on Broadway, she inherited a literary talent. When the family lost its fortune, Miss Mario went to New York, wrote columas for the Telegram, Evening World and Sun under the names of Queen Tillotson and Florence Bryan. With her literary earnings, she began singing lessons with Marcella Sembrich. Two Metropolitan Opera auditions were unsuccessful, but after appearances with the San Carlo and San Francisco Opera companies, and with the support of the great Caruso, she was given a contract in 1922. and has been with the company ever since. A highlight of tonight’s program will be Miss Mario’s singing of Mirada's aria from Bizet’s ‘‘Carmen.” an excerpt from the role in whicn she made her Metropolitan debut. Her other songs are to be an arragement, of Strauss’ “Tales From ihe Vienna Woods,” and the traditional Russian melody, “Dark Eyes.” With the playing of Victor Herbert’s “Irish Rhapsody,” Antonio Modarelli and the orchestra are to pay tribute to the composer under whose baton the Pittsburgh orchestra was known, from 1898 to 1904. as one of the country’s three leading orchestras. The orchestra is to play the familiar Schubert “Marche Militaire” , and the Dance No. 1, from de Falla s “La Vida Breve,” to complete the concert, to be broadcast by NBCWJZ (WIRE) at 6. for the Republican presidential nom ination. 808 THE initial program of anew series depicting,the early life of Thomas A. Edison is to be aired by CBS at 12:45 tomorrow, and will be presented each Friday during the summer at this hour. The purpose of the program is to stimulate interest in 100 Edison scholarships to be awarded annually to deserving boys for advanced study. B B B Horace Heidt, back in Chicago after a series of theater engagements, including the Lyric here, is to be heard nightly over WGN and the Mutual network in late danc-3 programs.

Mr. Sherman Sneed, of Evensville, Tenn.. writes: ‘I take BlackDraught for constipation which causes headache, a bad. tired feeling and for biliousness, bad taste in the mouth and sluggish feeling. Black-Draught, taken about two nights, clears up this trouble and I get all right.” Men and women like Black-Draught so well because of the refreshing relief it brings in constipation troubles.— A civ.
