Percy Mackaye. playwright, whose mime appeared as one of the signers o f the so-called "authors’ letter," pub­ lished In the newspapers last week, knew nothing about the matter until after publication, according to a state­ ment given out yesterday at Repub­ lican national headquarters.

In a letter to Mr. Hughes Mr Mackaye said “ My attention has Just been called to an open letter addressed to you, printed In the New Y’ ork Herald of August 2, signed by a number o f pro­ fessional writers, among whom my name Is Included. I beg to send you this word, to say that I did not sign the letter aud never saw or heard of the letter until It was shown to me In print” It was stated at Republican head­ quarters that neither Mr. Hughes nor any of his staff bad seen the letter except as It appeared in the newspa­ pers. 4-4’ 4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4> •> + + + + + + 4- PO INT8 FROM 4- HUGHES’ SPEECHES + ---- T IM E TO IRRIGATE It ¡ h getting tlu> time o f your you will need to im itate your lawna and gardens.
