MISS ALMA BECK IN
 SONG RECITAL
Presents Varied and Artistic Pro- gramme Before Cultured Audience
 at the Southern Club

The ballroom of the Southern club was converted into a concert audi torium last right on the occasion of the first of the Music Study clubs artists recitals. Miss Alma Beck, con tralto, was the artist and large and cultured audience gave her an enthu- siastic greeting. Mrs. Laurens Block was the accompaiast.
 Miss Beck appeared in a recital at the Jefferson theatre last spring and won the plaudits of all music lovers who embraced the opportunity of hearing her. Her pure. rich voice and her beautiful artistry were remark ed then, but in the short space of a few months her vocaliEation has become all the more finished and her reading all the more authoritative.
 No programme could hardly have been more varied than that which Miss Beck presented. sShe was as much at home in light sontts as she was In the more classical compositions What was especially noticed by discriminating listeners was Miss Becl's resistauce- as musicians would say-the ability to reach dramatic climax without the voice breaking. Older artists of the first class have perfect resistance. but it is somewhat unusual with young singers. This was Miss Becks pro- 2ramme.

OPTIMISM FEATURES
 | OPENING SESSION OF BANKERS ASSOCIATION
Future Holds Forth Unusual Promise Despite European War Is the
 Opinion of Bankers

Philadelphia, November 12.-Optimism
 for America's financial industrial and
 commercial future was expressed in re-
 ports and addresses at the opening ses-
 sion today of the convention of the In-
 vestment Bankers Association of Amer
 lea. Despite the European war speak
 CTS declared the future holds forth un-
 usual promise and that the low ebb of
 depression is past.
 A proposal by the president of the or
 ganization. Charles B. Caldwell of Chi
 cago, that a $250,OOO,o0O pool be formed to take over stocks and bonds that might be thrown on the market by panic-strick- en investors was discussed, but action was deferred MT Caldwell suggested that the pool be subscribed by bankers and investors from coast to coast, and managed by five or seven bankers selected Philadelphia. He declared nothing would so reassure the country at large, secure the immediate opening of stock exchanges and aid in reviving confidence as the forr nation of a pool.
 Discussing the new federal reserve
 banking law, Rudolph Diamant, New
 York. declared the new system will bene-
 fit the public at large and also the in-
 vestment bankers. He indorsed the secur-
 ites pool suggested by MT. Caldwell and
 added that If we could buy up, at bar gain prices, a large amount of American securities from foreign investors 1t would be fine thing for this country Taking up the reserve banking law, MT. Diamant said:
 Tt will help stabilize interest rates and help eliminate serious credit disturbances. It will place the legitimate operations of the commercial, industrial and agricul- tural community on a better and safer basis, less subject than heretofore to disturbances caused by factors outside of their respective spheres of activity and of their own making"
 John E.. Oldham. Boston, expressed the opinion that a readjustment in railway rates is necessary that the roads may be able to maintain their financial stability.
