Douty described the opera in it's en-
bryonic state in the latter part of the

scribed as the home of the dramatic
form in music. The first of his Illus
trations was 'Laseiatemi Morire." by
Claudio Monteverde, who is noted as
the originator of the use Of instru-
mentation in opera and the pioneer in
the use Of certain musical forms not
according to earlier ideas Of harmony
and counterpart. he is regarded as
the first Of the great school Of mod
ern musicians.
German opera, according to the lee
turer, did not develop in that country
Until at least 100 years later, only
operas in Italian being given even in
Germany up to that period. Mr.. Douty
then brought his hearers through the
various periods and countries down to

whc>je fame rests principally on the
opera THE Bohemian Girl" from
which he sang the old familiar ex-
cerpt, "Then You'll Remember Me-

ASK REITERATION OF POLICY.
Federal Employees Organizations
Appeal to Secretary Baker.

A reiteration by Secretary Baker
Of the War Departments policies as
to the right Of the workers to or
ganize. equal pay for equal work by
women and men and night work by
women was asked for yesterday by
a committee representing the National
Women's Trade Unian League, the Ma
tional Federation of Federal EN-
ployes and the International Associa-
ton Of Machinists.
These organizations, the committee
stated, represent probably the largest
organized groups of workers en-
pioyed by the War Department. They
ask for reiteration of policies be-
cause of reported intimidation of
workers, especially in arsena,s and
munition plants, by Army officers said
to be hostile to labor organizations.
