LONDON, March 12. Sir Thomas Beecbam has repented. He is not going to America. On the contrary he is going to make a last desperate effort to save English opera. "I've a staggcring scheme," he said. "Whether it will be a grand finale or a grand fizzle I do not know, but I am optimistic. I know we are a nation of noodles, but I have still an idea up my sleeve. If it does not succeed nothing will. It will embrace everything concerning inusic except broadcasting. It v^ill be a national enterprise, nine tenths British, »of which opera will be the main plank. There are British people all over the world because it is not worth while remaining in England. Anyhow, despite my losses, I'm going to see orice more where there is any hope for Briti,ch music.
