Metropolitan Museum Concert

The pleasure Of those attending the
orchestral concerts at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art under the direction
Of David Names would doubtless be
increased if the seating capacity were
larger. As it is. not all who make the
pilgrimage on Saturday evenings are
able to hear the music. The orchestra
plays in the gallery overlooking the
main entrance hall. Fortunate early ar
rivals occupy the benches in the main
hall and one row of chairs in the gal
lery.
Other music lovers arc obliged to
stand unless they provide themselves
with camp stools or are content to
sit upon the floor. Last evening whole
families were cnsconced upon straw
beach mats, but to those who sat upon
the stairs the music, except at rare
intervals, was all but inaudible The
audience was large and the programme.
including pieces by Beethoven, Dvorak,
Tschaikowsky, Moussorgsky, Grieg and
others, attractively arranged.

BOARD OF TRADE.
ASKS FOR PARKS.
Committee Recommends
Use of $500, 900 Already
Appropriated.

Two recommendations affecting the
improvement of the parks of the
city were unanimously passed by the
special committee on parks and high
ways of the Board of Trade at a
meeting held yesterday afternoon In
the board rooms.
One recommendation provides that
Congress be urged to make the ap-
preparation passed March. 1913 which
calls for the improvement of the
Rock Creek highway, at a cost of
$4,000 available to the District.
While the bill providing for this civic
benefit was passed in 1918. through
some misunderstanding, the funds
have never been appropriated.
The other proposal made by the
park committee recommended the
purchase OF the Dean tract, located
at Columbia road and Eighteenth
street northwest, and also the Patter-
son tract, used by the government
for Camp Meigs. for city parks.
The two recommendations will be
presented to both houses of Congress
for early consideration. The commit
tee appointed to promote these pro-
jects is composed of: Judge Charles
S, Bundy. chairman: Frank L. Leetch,
Fred G. Cotton, and Edwin S. Arnold
\ reading was given by the COM
mittee of the proposed suggestion OF
the building OF the Arlington Memoir
ial Bridge. connecting the Virginia
shore with the District at the ex-
tension of New York avenue and span
ming the Potomac at the Arlington
estate. No definite action, however
was taken yesterday.
Suggestions were also read provid-
ing that coming regulations, limiting
the heights of buildings, be establish.
ed in the District. These would cover
the character of buildings to be erect
ed in certain sections of the city. The
matter was laid upon the table unit
the next meeting.
The members OF the committee pres
ent yesterday afternoon included
Judge Charles s. Bundy, chairman
VIM. L. Dougal, Francis n. Savage
Fred G. Cotton. Edwin s. Arnold, and
Frank p. Leetch.

OFFERS JUSTICE
TO SERVICE men
Representative Johnso n
Would Give Fighting
Doughboys Credit.

Parliamentary objections blocked
Representative Royal Johnson, of
South Dakota, a veteran of the
American Expeditionary Forces,
from inserting amendments in the
army bill yesterday, which would
right intustices for soldiers who
won their spurs on the battlefield.
The South Dakota solpn was the
only member OF Congress to enlist
as a private in the army. He served
through the war in non-commis-
stoned offices and won his promo
ton to captain while lighting as a
member OF the Seventy-ninth divis-
ion. at Montfaucon.
Pay of Higher Rank.
One Of his amendments provided
that officers and men who had
served in the fighting overseas in
positions higher than their regular
rank. should be given the pay OF
the higher rank for the period in
which they served and should have
the fact stated on their discharge
papers as evidence of the country S
appreciation.
Il introduce this amendment he
said. ito give simple justice to buck
pTivates, FIRST class priyates, cor
poraIs, sergeants and higher ofrt-
GERS. who, when their commanding
oricers were injured or killed. as
sumed the leadership and d>>ies Of
the higher ofrdcer and carried~Out
their part with distinction"
Corporal Led Company.
Il have in mind" he added, ''one
case where after all of the comA
manding officers of the company of
the 316th Infantry had been shot
Down, a corporal led the fighting
force OF ninety men. There are
thousands OF similar cases and l
think that these men should be
accorded the official credit which
their vaIor and patriotism deserve" "
\ second amendment provided
that men Of the American Expe-
ditionary Forces. promoted on the
field OF battle, should have the pay
and allowances start from the time
OF their promotion.
