Two Pianists, New TO
New York, Give Recitals
Jacques .Jolas Is Heard in Aeoli.
All Hall and jacques Pintel
in Carnexie

Two pianists new to New York we're
heard in recital yesterday. In the
afternoon Jacques Jolas appeared at
Aeolian Hall. Born at Union HILL N.
j., this young man is a pupil of the
late Teresa Carreno and Howard
Brockway. His program included Tau
sig's arrangement Of Bachs Toccata
and Fugue in D minor, Brahms's Bal
lade Edward" Capriccio in + sharp,
Op. 70, No. l, and Rhapsodie in E
fiat, Op. 119; MacDowell's Kettle Sonata
and pieces by Brockway, Albeniz and
Balakirev. Mr.. Jolas has an agreeable
touch and sound technic, but little
more.
In the evening, at Carnegie Hall,
Jacques Pintel gave his first recital In
this city. A biographical sketch of the
pianist already has been printed in this
newspaper. Compositions by Chopin
occupied a conspicuous place on his
program. These included the Sonata in
h minor, an Etude, three Mazurkas, a
Prelude and the Scherzo in minor.
While Mr.. Pntcl's playing has less
brttleness and more poetry than is
commonly associated with the average
disciple of the French school Of piano
playing, it is little more than mediocre.
Neither in technical craftsmanship nor
in Interpretation did he achieve any
thing to set him apart from confreres
who come and 90 in the course of the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.--The out
standing result Of the Republican land
slide, so far as official Washington is
concerned, was the death of Wood
row Wilson's League of Nations and
the general belief that the election
gave President-elect Harding absolute
control over the foreign policy of the
United States.
No one in Washington doubts now
that the league, as written at Versailles,
is dead, and there are few Demo-
Gratis in Washington to-day who be-
leve that the President will make any
effort to resurrect it.
Discussion of the Presidents prob
able plans with regard to the league
quickly followed the acceptance bv
Administration officials of their defeat.
and in every government department
'Hd bureau they told different story
as to what Mr. Wilson intends doing.
1t was emphatically asserted by per-
sons close to the White House, how
ever, that the President is not at all
inclined to resubmit the Versailles
treaty to the Senate when Congress
reconvenes in December. The Presi-
dent would have nothing to gain by
sending the treaty back. it was said
since the Senate would be the same
one that declined twice to ratify it.
Then, too, while the Senate might
be repeating its previous lengthy dis
cussions on the league, brought up to
date, of course, as the result of the
election. Senator Harding. as the next
President. would be quietly and un-
officially working out a solution to
the foreign affairs of the United States
that would have the support of the
European nations.
