Welcome Dohnanyi's Return
Hungarian Composer Pianist
Gives First Recital i'm Years

Emo Dohnanyi, Hungarian composer
pianist, gave his first recital in New
York in many years at Aeolian Hall
yesterday afternoon. A feature of the
program was a group of Mr.. Dohnany1's
own compositions, two rhapsodies in
+ sharp minor, Op: II No. 2, and in
C major, Op. IL No. 3; Marche. Op.
II No. /; Etude in E major, Op. %
No. and Etude in + minor, Op. 20 No.
6. Other numbers were Mendelssohn's s
Prelude and Fugue in f minor;
Mozart's Sonata in A major; Bee
thovens Sonata in d minor, Op. 81. No.
2, the same composers variations in
p major, Op. rs, and LISTS Thirteenth
Rhapsodie.
Mr.. Dohnanyi is a we'll graccd
pianist, musician of refined and cul-
tivated tastes. His playing is intel
lectual rather than emotional, and in
it one encounters more nervous in
tensity than the proverbial Hungarian
fire. He was warmly welcomed by
large audience, which numbered among
its more distinguished members Sergei
Rachmaninoff.

The resolution was passed at the
committees regular meeting Thursday
and was made public yesterday. 1t says
"These magazines refuse to purchase
fiction unless they are at the same
time permitted to acquire an option
on the motion picture rights in such
fiction on terms dictated by the pur-
chaser" This practice is criticized as
dangerous to that which is best and
most inspirational in American liters-
ture."
Speculate in Film Rights
The resolution says the international
Hearst corporation, was formed re-
Gently for tho purpose of controlling
and speculatng in the film rights of
stories appearing in the Hearst group
of magazines.
Options controlling the motion pic
ture rights of stories. il is charged,
are acquired "at prices usually below
ruling market values and offered for
sal at terms paying good profits to the
holder of the option, hut not to the
author, and the sales being made before
that option price has been paid to
him.
A statement given out at the same
time that the resolution was made
public says: MANY authors of ma
tional reputation, including Cosmo
Hamilton, Rupert Hughes, Louis Joseph
Vance and Arthur Somers Roche have
been compelled to seek other markets
for their wares. because they have
refused to submit to the editorial
policy of these magazines"
Injustice TO Author

worked to the author, but because the
very life of the art of fiction IS threat

lieving that it is probably the most
serious blow to the free expression of
ideas that has ever threatened Ameri-

Partisan Jeweler
Sues Princess i'm
N. Y. for $33,5OO
Declares Wife of Russian
Nobleman Bought Pearls
ON Credit and Sold Them.
Forgetting TO Pay Up

Princess Melanie D. Bertrand de
Lyteuil Engalitcheff, formerly Baroness
Bertrand de Lyteuil, of Paris, was sued
in the Supreme Court yesterday for
! S33,600 by Emmanuel Polak, n Paris
jeweler, who said the princess bought
diamonds from his establishment and
| not only failed to pay for them but
sold the articles purchased by her and
retained the proceeds.
Princess Engalitcheff and her hus-
band, Prince Nicholas Vladimirovitch
Engalitcheff, of Russia, are now stay
ing at the Waldorf Astoria. They were
not yet married when the princess con-
tracted the alleged indebtedness with
the Paris jeweler. The couple were
married in the French capital in 1918,
two years after Princess Evelyn Par
fridge Engalitcheff, daughter of Charles
w. Partridge, of Chicago, had obtained
a divorce from the prince in New York
Before the marriage of the prince and
the baroness the latter had figured in
the newspapers here az A beneficiary
under the will Of Herman A. Florsheim,
member of the firm of Franklin Simon
g. Co.
Mr.. Polak said in his complaint that
on May 8, 1916, Princess Engalitchetf
made certain false and fraudulent'
statements concerning her share in the
tlorsheim estate, upon which he was
induced to extend credit to his titled
patron. On that occasion, it is alleged
Princess Engalitcheff selected on credit
a pearl ring valued at 10000 francs,
which at that time were worth 20 cents
in American money. The agreement
was that she was to pay 10000 francs
on January 5, 1917, and 10000 francs
on September 5, 1917.
The princess, it is alleged, accepted
two drafts drawn on her by Mr. Polak
to cover the purchase of the pearl ring,
each being for 10000 francs.
Thereafter, the Paris ieweler
charges, the defendant unlawfully con-
Verted the ring to her own use, sold it
at greatly reduced price and retained
the proceeds, paying Mr.. Polak only
$4,000 francs to cover the first draft.
In this cause of action the plaintiff
sues for balance of $4,000
In a second cause of action. based on
an alleged transaction on September
", 1916, Mr.. Polak repeated all the
allegations contained i'm the othnr:

JeWeler, the princess bought a rinq

francs. On this purchase she accepted

immortality Among High School
Students Appalling, Says Woman

ATLANTIC CITY, Feb. discharges
OF riotous excesses and acts of appall-
ing immortality were made here to-day
against the high school students of
America at the opening session of the
National Council of Deans of Women.
The war and automo mobiles are respon-
sible for the present moral status Of
high school students, according to one
delegate.
The war has played havoc with our
ethical Standards" said Miss Lillian
E. Dimmit, dean Of women at Morn
ingside College. Sioux City, Iowa, ad-
dressing the council. "And after four
years of killing it is only natural 1t

systems, but we are madly endeavoring
to save the youth.
Extreme social life has found it's
way into the schools and colleges. High
school girls are the social butterflies
and they get their ideals from the SEN
sational movies.
"While careful system of chapcr-
onage would not guarantee right living
or pure morals, it would be protective
and react on the students and help save
the home from bitter criticism of to-
day"
Miss Alice Robertson, member of
Congress from Oklahoma, made a plea
for the "old home ideals" for women.
She said she was opposed to the "ear-
bound, powder-puff" type of girl and
contended that girls should be educated
back to the days when they learned how
to cook and sew from their mothers and
when the home was the center of So
cial life
