bard, director OF public safety ordered
the police department Yesterday to refuse
a concert license to Fritz kreisler, the
yoinist, who was advertised to appear in
Carnegie music hall this evening The di
rcstor stipulated, however, that krcis-
lrr's manager BE- allowed to cancel the en-.
gagcmcnt before the order was enforced.
IL was also announced that another con-
cert at which krei,lcr was to appear as
accompanied on Saturday had been can
cclcd by the local management.
Director Hubbard received protests
from a number Of patriotic organizations
and from many individuals against the
Kreisler concerts They took the ground
that since Krclsler was an officer in the
Austrian army. and Austria was the ally
OF Americas enemy. it would be unpatri-
otic TO permit him to appear at a public
entertainment.
