Tobacco Crusade Hooted
Down by Women Doctors
Delegate to Conference Who
Assails Smoking Escapes
Amid Noisv Protests

Women doctors will take no part in
the anti-tobacco crusade. The decorum
of the International Conference of
Women Physicians was sadly inter
rupted in its closing hours yesterday,
when dozen delegates were on their
feet at once, jeerlng and booing the
suggestion of white haired membe r
mat the conference 90 on record as
favorIng a war on tobacco
1t was during the discussion of reso-
.utions offered by the committee on
industrial conditions that the anti-to-
bacco crusader rose in the back of the
room
"Tobacco smoking is an industrial
disease" she said. 81 move that the
women doctors of the world place
themselves on record as read to do
all in their power to discourage the
spread of this evil"
The foreign delegates led the dem
onstration against this resolution, and
m the hubbub the author escaped with
out giving her name.
SIX resolutions were adopted, en-
bodyng the attitude of the women
physicians toward health problems
One resolution advocated an amend
nations, as follows:
"The conference recommends that
provision be made in the covenant of
the league of nations for an interna-
tional bureau of hygiene"
Other resolutions passed advocated
physical examinations before mar
riage, regular physical examination
for infants and chi dren ~ to the time
of their leaving school, instruction of
the public in food values. with special
reference to the necessity for milk and
fresh fruits and vegetables; health in
surance for workers. vocational guild
ance and investigation of Industrial
diseases.
In the last resolution as origina 'ly
written the demand was for investiga-
tion "by the state" After much de-
bate. however these words were
omitted to encourage private enter
prise undertaking such investigations.
The conference will close to-day.

Cecil BurIeigh Pleases at
His First Recital Here

Cecil BurleiCh, known for his COM
positions and arrangements of music
for the violin, gave his first recital in.
this city last night at Aeolian Hall.
He was received with cordiality by
gcod-sized audience and proved h nj
self musician OF sincerity and poise.
IN his program were the Handel Sonata

OF Mr.. Burleigh's own compositions. in
cluding his Concerto No. ..
In nothing did he show finer must
clan hip than in his p aging Of the music;
OF Handel. II was done with urhanity and
fpirit. Fo~ Bach his artistic stature has
need of developing greater breadth OF
shoulder, wider grasp. He has a pleasing
and expressive. though not large. tone.
and technique which, except for oc
ca lonal uncertainties of intonation, il
adequate.
His short compositions. which in
their titles, "Bruin." "Hallowe'en.~
Autumn" AT the Brookside," as weif"
as in their spirit, remind one of the,
short piano sketches of Mcdowell.
and his Concerto No. 2. based on the
characteristic idoms of Indian music.

were encored heartily. Francis Moore
at the piano furnished sympathetic
and artistic accompaniments.

An Excellent Performance by
the New Symphony Orches.
ira at Carnegie Hall
BY H. E. Krehbies

The second pair OF this seasons con-
eerts by the New Symphony Orchestra
under Mr.. Bodanzky took place in Car
negie Hall on Thursday evening and
yesterday afternoon. The playing Of
the orchestra in the evening, to judge
by the comments which reached our
ears, seems to have been injuriously
affected by the weather, which was Of
the sort that is respons ble for many
impurities of intonation and technical
slips in nearly all the choirs of an
orchestral band. Few of such defects
narred yostcrdays concert, which was
in the highest degree admirable and
enjoyable.
Mr. Bo6an2ky gave us nothing new
to hear, but all his selections were
of high order-not excepting Men

Bias" If in this and the excerpts
from Berlioz's Romeo ct Ju iette"

lures of Spain equally served to dem

There were no dul. moments in the
performance, none oppressed by per-
tunctorlness, none overstimulated by
desire to put new wine into old bottles.
In all things there was appreciation of
beauty and an earnest endeavor to
move the audience--a fine one-to
share in that appreciation.
Mr.. Thibaud played the Bra ms

with elegance if not always with the

SAID beforehand as to the sort of show
.Ae capitol was to sponsor. 1t cannot
be c.assl4.ed nothing like it ever has

Edward Bowes says on the first
page OF the program that he took
pleasure in presenting new sort

tainment was surely received in the
same spirit, only it is difficult to un-
derstanl how even Edward Bowcs and
Ned Wayburn could have done il.
1t Is as though they had taken the

all INTO one huge playhouse, with bits

width of the lobby, which makes you

Chalfont and that she is singing
"Mircllc.''
After that Prior's Band plays the
overture, which consists Of three diff
ferent numbers and gives every one

Impressed by Her Visit Here, She Says

Queen Elizabeth Of the Belgians ad-
vocates votes for WON n. but she does
not believe in The equality Of the sexes
any moe than in employing militant
methods to obtain suffrage. She said
so to representative Of The Asso-
fiated Press. The interview was given
m board the royal special train on
which TIE King and Queen arrived
heHe yesterday.
and she felt no fear of German con-
quest, but she was as embarrassed as
girl when asked in English her views
on topics of common interest to all
women. She turned her head aside,
and the co or flooded her cheeks as
she exclaimed, what shall I do?" in
French to Lieutenant Colonel Nolf. her
physician, who sat beside her regarding
her with a paternal smile, ha.f of
amusement.
She clung gamely to English, how
ever, and displayed one of her traits of
sharacter when she quietly, but with
obv Gus determination, disregarded
suggestion that she converse in French
and let Dr. Nolf act as interpreter AS
he interview proceeded she regained
her serenity and seemed to enjoy it.

should be done to rrotect them"
Queen Elizabeth has definite ideas
on the education of girls it developed.
She does not believe in the separation
of the sexes in schoo, although she
advocates emphatically educating girls
along one line and boys along quite
another.
No Equality of Sexes
The war taught me-" she said, "that
there is no equality of the sexes. My
nusoand was solder and ! was 8
nurse. So il was with all women The
future should see work divided along
the same lines. When women are
forced to earn their own living I have
no objection TO their doing that for
which they are best fitted, but those
who do not need to work should learn
hygiene and general hospital work.
They should be social workers, libra
mans and playground instructors"

Jack of equality between the sexes
should not prevent women from voting.

Unclaimed bv Centuries.

The Turkish and other Mohammedan
villagers from the Thracian plains are
retracing the steps of their ancestors
of five centuries ago and leaving Eu-
rope to return to Asia. And the weird
part of it is that in costume, convey
ances and manner of life there has
been practically no change in these 800
years. The wheels of their long, mar
row carts have spokes in them now
whereas they used to be solid wheels,
and perhaps the rush mating that
protects the family from the weather
may be little better woven. But the
oxen or buffaloes that leisurely drag
the household along, and the barefoot
ed wife of the sandaled husband with
the goad who pulls these numbering
animals by string, and the primitive
mode of life on their plodding journey,
all belong to bygone age.
