SWEDISH SINGER
HEARD IN SONGS
OF SCANDINAVIA

The swedish eontralto. Nine. Julia
Claussen, was heard in song recital at
the National Theater yesterday after
noon in the nth concert OF the ten
star series. Nine. CIaussen. as soloist
with orchestra, created great enthu-
sIasn here last winter. but her realm
Of song is rather the larger mold
than the more intimate one Of the
recital.
1t is a large. dramatic. operate
voice that Nine. Claussen disclosed
more that OF the wagnerian singer.
In songs she proved unwieldy. maxi
ing her selections more OF studied vo-
ealizations than stories to be told In
terestingly in tone.
Interpretation Is the essential In
the. recitalist OF today, and this inti-
mate understanding, this psychology
OF song, Nine. Claussen did not pos
sess. She sings with delightful
legato and q rich-toned piRnissimo
but with little variety. One regretted
also that her songs were almost all
In high range, % that too little OF
her deep. full contralto was felt.
Several most interesting Scandi-
navian songs were included In hel
, program, From Mount Ptncio" of
Grieg, The Stockdove" by Mertkanto
/ and May Day. Of Peterson-Berger

CARRANzA SENDS
MISSION TO JAPAN
SEEKING TREATY

The Carranzista government in
Mexica is anxious to negotiate a pref
erential treaty with Japan. A COM
mission now son its way to Tokyo
for that purpose.
The mission, headed by Former
Consul General Burns, of New York,
and including General Boucher, chief
OF staft under President Porforio Diaz,
Senior Frsgo, Mexican consul general
to Japan, and four others now are en-
route on a Japanese steamer. They
boarded the vessel at Sslina Cruz
and are expected to have remained in
seclusion while the steamer was in
San Francisco harbor.
II is not believed here that Japan
willingly will consent to any fur
nishing OF munitions to Mexico at
present. There is a perfect under
standing between this country and
Japan on certain matters, and Mexico
Is one of them. Because of this Of
ficials indicated that they are not
very much concerned regarding the
new Mexican mission to the Orient.

On a recent visit to the front in Bel

went with her while she distributed
Christmas presents to the soldiers.
she is democratic and loves human
beings because they are human
beings cabled DR.. Van Schaick. ITO
see her among her soldiers with
CHEEKY words and little Christmas
gifts is a sight that I shall not soon
forget We shall probably never have
a king and queen in America, but we
shall never have hatred for such a
king or queen as they have in Bel

given to the Senate subcommittee
headed by Senator Reed, which Is
investigating the coal shortage when
Charles +. NJ. Fadeley, wholesale
coal dealer, was put on the stand and
asked what ought to be done to
give the community relief.
Mr.. Fadeley sought to make 1t
plain that if some way were found
to get the coal to Washington there
would be no difficulty distributing
It to the consumers. He presented
monthly figures since last March as
to the coal receipts OF his company.
Although there was some shortage
last spring. the serious shortage was
in September, October, and December.
The January receipts thus far have
been far below normal, being about
500 tons as against 1000 tons for
the same period last year.

ply.
