Igets a little better look-in with Re
publican congress. More of our friends
come into places of influence.
The great reclamation act, one OF
the most important pieces of legisla
ton to the West ever enacted, was
given to us by Republican congress
And the present Republican con
gress has given us the two next in i'm
portance, probably-The Coal and Oil
Leasing Bill and The Water Power
Bill.
For some years the public land
states have been fi.,d hand and foot
as to the development of their natural
re=carces- All coal, oil. oil shale lands
and water power rights have been tied
up. New development was impossible
and many projects that had been
started were held up.
While the West has always been op-
posed to the leasing system, in recent
years the leading spirits OF the West
had become convinced that nothing
better could be gotten out of congress
So for about eight years the West
has been pressing congress for some
relief. even IL it came thru the leasing
system
All these years Democratic congress
es have been discussing and promising
legislation. but with no results. Bills
have passed one house or the other.
but never became laws.
Near the close OF the recent ses-
sion this Republican congress passed
The Oil Leasing Bill and The Water
Power Bill.
The Oil Leasing Bill is more liberal
than any other that got far in con-
gress 1t permits The development of
coal. phosphate, oil. oil shale. gas and
sodium lands on the public domain.
The royalties collected will largely go
to the reclamation fund and to the
states in which the lands are devel-
'oped This bill Immediately opened
up large tracts In most all Western
states Tor development
The situation regarding water
power was practically the same The
Water Power Bill will open up for
development a large amount OF water
power. The United States Geological
Survey estimates that there is in ex-
cess Of 44.0o0,000 horsepower. or Il
per cent OF the totRl potential avala-
hle horsepower in the United States
10 be found within the states of Wash
iDg;on, Oregon. California. Montana.
Wyoming, Idaho. Colorado. Utah and
Nevada. and that OF this vast amount
but .s22.a2i horsepower. or SIS per
cent. has been developed and is now
being utilized.
Farseeing men will recognize that
the West is much Indebted to this Re
publican congress for the enactment
OF these two progressive and far-reach-
ing measures.
There is really every reason in the
world why the West should help keep
a Republican majority in congress.

Winetzkaja in Concert
Carnegie Hall Recital PIeases
Appreciative Audience

Nine. Maria Winetzkaja, a mezzo So
prano, who recently has been singing
with the Bracarle Opera Company. gave
recital last night at Carnegie Hall
and proved herself an artist of no com
mon quality. She is the possessor Of a
voice of great richness and power and
one which is surprisingly uniform in
its scale, voice which, all things con-
sidered, both in it's quality and in its
method of production, is one of the
finest organs recently heard in the con
cert world.
Moreover, Nine. Winetzkaja has both
temperament and intelli igence. and her
program, by its musical interest and
variety, testified to the catholicity of
her taste. There was a fascinating
group of Ukrainian folk songs, an Ital /
ian and Spanish group, group OF
modern Russian songs, and final
Anglo American group, in which Elgar's
"The Swimmer" deserves mention for
the superb manner in which II was
given, despite the singers unfortunate
diction. The audience was large and
unusually enthusiastic. Mime Winetx-
kaja is q singer who will be welcome
wherever she appears.

Catholic Charities to
Undergo Big Change
Survey Commission Makes Re-
port to Archbiship Propos-
ing Altered Methods

In report submitted to Archbishop
Patrick J. Hayes by special Charities
Survey Commission widespread changes
In the system Of Catholic charities and
social work in the archdiocese Of New
York are recommended The report
was made public in part yesterday.
The report covers every phase of
charitable and welfare work in the
archdiocese, which embraces Manhat-
tan, the Bronx, Staten Island and the
seven upstate counties Of Westchester.
Rockland, Dutchess, Ulster, Orange.
Putnam and Sullivan
While no statement has yet been
made by Archbishop Hayes. it is under
stood that he soon will propose a
sweeping alteration Of the system of
charities. Conferences with leading
laymen and officials are now being held.
In preparing it's report each Of the 297
parishes in the archdiocese was visited
by the Survey Commission. :.
The survey embraces five divisions
relief, children, health, protective work
and social action. In the year ending
June 80, 1919, $4,000 was spent for d.
rect relief. 1858 families were aided,
4,769 individuals were assisted and
5.144 visits were made. The women 8
auxiliaries obtained 100 positions for
persons needing employment and sup
piled 200 with clothing.

the open water. There is not much that
miss. AS he passed over the old bramb'e-
he saw two little brown forms squatting
muttered Blacky, "there is Peter Rabbit
did Peter induce Mrs. Peter to como
way over here?" He was tempted to
stop and ask them, but thought better
OF it and held his tongue.
Straight over the snow-covered Green
Meadows he few past the dear Old
Briar-patch. He didn't intend to stop
there, but when those sharp eyes of
his saw spot Of red half hidden under
tho bushes on the edge of the Old
Briar-patch, he changed his mind. He
circled and alighted in the top of a little
tree. and his sharp eyes twinkled and
snapped as he looked down. There lay
Reddy Fox, and Blacky's wits are so
sharp that he knew instantly why Reddy
was there. He knew that Reddy had
found out that Peter was away from
the dear Old Briar-pateh and was lying
in wait for Peter to come home. He
remembered the two little brown forms
squatting in the bramble-tangle on the
edge Of the Green Forest. It had been
quite clear to him that they had settled
themselves to spend the day there, and
now he understood why. He knew that
somehow they knew that it wasn't safe
for them to return to the dear Old
Briar-patch.
Blacky began to chuckle hoarsely.
for you know his voice il very hoarse.

Double Quintet of
MY. Chamber Music
Society Disappoints
Paucity Of Ideas and Want
of Balance of Tone Are
Most Prominent Features
of Acolian Hall Concert

At concert Of the New York Cham
Der Music Society in Aeolian Hall last
night the program was made up Of =
double quintet in A major. by Emanuel
Moor, caprice by Saint-Saens fer
pianoforte, flute, oboe and clarinet, on
Danish and Russian airs, and Brahms s
quartet in G minor for pianoforte and
strings. op. 25.
Miss Carolyn Beebe, who Is the di-
rector and pianist of the organization.
took part in the performance Of the
compositions by Saint-Sasns and
Brahms.
The work by Moor was, we believe,
new to the audience. The instruments
employed IN it are quintet of strings
1.-TWO violins, viola, violoncello and
nute,oboe. clarinet, bassoon and French
horn. 1t was probably designated
double quintet to avoid the French
term dixtuor; Mr.. Granger would no
doubt have gleefully called it "ten-
some" No designation, however, would
have atoned for its paucity Of ideas
or the want of balance Of tone be-
tween the string and wind contingents
IN the band, though better perform
ance on the part Of the players Of the
yiols would probably have made the
defect, if defect it be, less apparent.
The composition has six movements,
but the first two and the last two are
connected. Perhaps its greatest merit
was its merciful brevity, for the COM
poser's command of counterpoint and
imitation seemed speedily exhausted
and he was wise in avoiding the pitfall
Of overelaboration after the introduc-
tion. His avoidance of excessive mod
ernism in harmonization and of treat
ment unsuitable to the idiomatic
language of the various instruments
was also commendable.
He made no effort to obtain orches-
trail effects, but studiously kept within
the limits of chamber music proper
There were more interesting themes in
. the composition by Saint-Saens, but it
sounded like pretty trife designed to
entertain the players in a musically
gifted domestic circle.

She is hiding somewhere in here now"
Blacky laughed right out. "Then lit
tie Mrs. Peter must have double"
said he. II saw some one exactly like
her with Peter not five minutes ago,
and if I am any judge they have no ir-
tention Of coming back to the dear Old

great hunter you are to be fooled by a

Reddy glared up at Blaeky helpless

himself. and with such dignity as he
could trotted off in the direction Of the

less to remain there now that Blacky

morning, and how 1t happened that lit

Forest instead Of at home in the dear
Old Briar-patch.
