Baird Thanks Women
Senator Says Anti-Suffragists
Brought About His Election

Senator David Baird, elected to the
Senate from New Jersey in the face
of bitterly concentrated attack from
the woman suffrage forces, gives much
Of the credit for his success in the late
election to the New Jersey Association
Opposed to Woman Suffrage. In q
letter to Mrs Carroll P. Bassett, pres
ident of that organization, made pub
lie to-day, he says, in part:
THE suffragettes sent their orators
and agitators from many states into
New Jersey and boasted that with
President Wilson's aid they would de-
feat me. I appealed to the New Jer-
sey voters on my record in the Senate
The verdict speaks for itself, refuting
the statement made by Mr.. Wilson, in
letter to Mr.. Hennessey, that / had
"certainly not represented the true
feeling and spirit of the people of New
Jersey
81 have nothing against the suffra-
gettes in general. The women who
want the franchise have the right to
use all proper methods to gain their
end, just as the women who oppose it
have, but the methods of the suffra
gette leaders, who, after insulting the
President by burning his words in
front of the White House, posed in
New Jersey as supporters of the Presi
dent in order to gain votes for my op-
ponent, was nauseating."

Music
AConcert of Schubert's S Music
by the Society of the
Friends of Music
By H. E. Krehbiel

Sanctified by the name of Schubert
and with anathema removed from the
vocal numbers by performance in Eng
lsh paraphrase, sweet and gentle
musical entertainment. was given at
the Hotel Ritz yesterday afternoon un-
der the auspices of the Society of
the Friends of Music The society pro-
1esses to have set for its aim the cult
vation of high class music in forms for
which our ordinary concert institutions
fail to make provision. An extremely
iaudable purpose. but one which, some
will think, would be more effectively
subserved by encouraging existing or
carnations and thus enabling them to
supply the assumed want. The ques-
ton, however, does not enter into the
consideration invited by yesterdays
concerts, the music of which has long
been at the disposal Of conductors and
the forces necessary to its employment
at the command of every singing So
clety able to hire a small orchestra
The compositions performed were those
written in 1923 for a romantic drama
entitled "Rosamunde"-all but the
overture, which, hough associated in
the published score with the rest of
the incidental music, was composed for
another play called Die zauberharfe F"
The original "Rosamunde' overture
was tackled on to the opera alfonso
und Estrella." which Schubert com
posed four years later. This does
not signify, however, as the shiny,
mirroring faced piece which was heard
yesterday has long been known and ad-
mired in our concert rooms. SO has the
piece of between-acts music in B fiat,
the melody of which, with Sappho's
Adonic rhythm, haunted the mind of
Schubert when he wrote his marvellous
song death and the Maiden" the
theme which he varied in the d minor
quartet, the pianoforte impromptu Op.
142, No. 3; his exquisite cradle song,
"Wie sich der Aeuglelin," and which
pulses persistently in the Allegretto of
Beethoven's Seventh Symphony. Two
ballet pieces which also belong to the
set were nfamiliar-probably because
conductors who revere the genius Of
Schubert have preferred to show their
reverence by leaving them in the limbo
of oblivion to which they were con-
signed after their performance in 1928

Elliott Theatre last evening, gave a
programme that included many of the
most delightful chansons in her re-
pertory. The story of Jesse James,
the cowboy, and of other outlaws, both
French and American, provided a strik-
ing contrast for the songs of the
seventeeth and eighteenth centuries,
which included Margoton's adventure

Drama
Daddy Long Legs" Revived
at the Henry Miller
Theatre
By Heywood Broun

daddy Long Legs" long and favor
ably known to New York audiences
was revived at the Henry Miller The
atre on Saturday night, with Henry
Mliier and Ruth Chatterton in the
ieadIng roles. The play was such an
emphatic success when first produced
mere that there seems to be little
reason 10 comment on it now 1t is
known as surefre piece. Every
laugh Is plainly hidden for and with
rate, no request for laughter went un-
fulfilled last night If it were not
much too late and perfectly useless we
would insist that Daddy Long Legs
IN spite of some first-class humorous
observations. is on the whole a forced
and artificial compositions.
Daddy Long Legs" was one of the
plays which did most to win Miss Ruth
Chatterton a large following of New
York theatregoers. There is no indi-
cation that the numerical strength of
that following is diminishing, but there
is no doubt in our mind that Miss
to her early promise. She has lost sim
plicity. Miss Chatterton should not
crinkle her nose with every humorous
line, nor should she suppress her
voice to the merest whisper upon the
receipt of surprising news, as in her
sibilant "Send me to college!" After
all, Vassar can't be as bad as all that.
Miss Chatterton does not do we'll
either to indicate great emotion by
biting her words off and swallowing
them without mastication.
Such a practice is good neither for
digestion or drama. The only excuse
we can give for these rude remarks is
that Miss Chatterton can act well and
has done SO. She does so at times,
now but not when she is initiating the
timid mouse or the raging tiger.
1t has always seemed to US that
Henry Miller did not play up to his
highest standards in light comedy. We
do not think his present performance
is a good one. Charles Trowbridge,
who plays Jimmy Mcbride. gives the
best performance among those in sup
port of the stars.
