the director said, was Every embarrass-
ing" for man of his artistic tempera-
ment, and insistence on rendition was
almost an insult" In brief, the leader
made his plea on the ground that the
national anthem, not being high-class mu-
sic, would spoil the programme of the
orchestra.
Things at once began to happen. The
Rhode Island Council of National Defence
adopted resolutions characterizing the re-
fusal as "a deliberately insulting atti-
tude." Thomas Howick, special agent for
the Department of Justice at Providence,
recommended to Washington that the con-
certs Of the orchestra be prohibited un-
less the anthem were played. Major
Henry Lee Higginson, founder and prin-
cipal patron of the orchestra, backed the
leader, threatening to disband the or
chestra.
In defence of his refusal to play, DR..
Muck gave out the following statement:
"Why will people be so silly? Art is a
thing by itself and not related to any par
ticular nation or group. Therefore it would
be a gross mistake violation of the artistic

insult.

And do not want to introduce anything that

has taken so many years to bring to its pres

explanation as sincere. "There has been,
of course, considerable lodging of the
issue in the reasons given" says Richard
Aldrich in The New York Times:
"Dr. Muck in Prussian. an official OF the
Prussian court and naturally Goes
not like TO conduct the national anthem OF a
country with which his own is at war *
goes hard against the grain now; IL mighe
get him into trouble in Berlin when ne re-
turns. rt
Neither DR.. Muck nor Major Higginson
will have found any general demand IN New
York for the elimination Of German music
in larger proportion than that OF other
nations for the simple and undenianle rea'
son that there is more and better Germsr
music than music Of other nations. But he
has not hesitated 10 play French, Russian,
Finnish and Rumanan music. All these ma
tionalities are represented on the two pro-
crammes tina. he announced for this week N
New York To these it was necessary that
one piece be added closely identified with the
United States, though composed IN England
by an Englishman. Its name is The STAR
Spangled Banner"

n Gost of the Directors Sympanlze
wi With Germany

Similarly II. f. Krehbiel, musical critic
Of The Tribune, points out the rub IN
the directors excuse. az is an open So
cret, we believe, that except Walter Dam
rosch Of the Symphony Society and Mo
dest Altschuer Of the Russian Symphony
Orchestra (but here We are speaking
largely on presumption all the conductors
of the symphony orchestras ir ne United
States sympathize with ths enemies OF
our country"
At the same time Mr.. Krehbiel is in
clined TO agree with those who think 1t
will be difficult for some Americans to
remain quiet when they see alien must
clans fattening on the bounty OF country
whose needs are bound TO grow larger as
the people are called on to make material
sacrifices in its behalf. After all, some
will say, if meatless and wheatless days so
that our allies may be fed, why not mu-
sicess days so that the enemy in our own
land may not devour Of our plenty"
"The Philadelphia Public Ledger" would
let DR.. Muck's resignation stand, while
"The Baltimore Sun" thinks loyal Ameri-
cans SHOULD prevent officially the per-
Torrance of any such organization as
Muck's." "The Utica Press also thinks
this country will no longer be considered
a gold mine by European musicians who
fear the playing of "The Star-Spangled
Banner" will interfere with a musical pro-
gramme. Over in Brooklyn, where the
orchestra is billed for a performance this
week, "The Eagle" reports gossip about
"a silent treatment to be given to the
Prussian at the Academy on Friday night,
and if the Germans in the audience under
take to acclaim him there is pretty GER
tain to be a counter demonstration and
row. The way to avoid the risk Of such
an unseemly collision is to announce at
once that DR.. Muck's resignation will be
accepted as soon as new conductor can
be found"
In short, sentiment in the country is
readily stirred up against DR.. Muck.
People are getting "grouchy" If the
press is to be believed, the people want TO
hear "The Star-Spanged Banner" before
or after a musical programme. Tolerance
is all right in its place, but so is the Ger
MANN his place.
