Improved Setting
For Next Years
Stadium Concerts

The Stadium Concerts of New York
have just ended season of six weeks
Of open-air summer symphony nights,
attracting an average of 1000 people
performance, $4,000 week.
Speaking for Adolph Lewisohn. of
New York, chairman of the Concerts
Executive Committee and the commit
tees other members, Arthur Judson,
their manager, made this statement
Yesterday: "The venture, now tested
FOR four years, has justified itself Mr.
Lewisohn and his committee are so
much encouraged with the results this
year that they have already set out
to make the Lewisohn Stadium. the
scene of these concerts since their
beginning, a place of real attractive-
ness. We are now studying just what
in detail shall be the proper equip
ment
eve are devising new orchestra
platform that will be not only beauti-
full to the eye and arranged with
proper surroundings, but will possess
rounding boards so perfect that Tho
softest panssimo will be audible in
every seat occupied by the 10000 per
sons the Stadium can hold
81 say 10000, but the Stadium Con-
certs of 1922 will accommodate more
than 10000, our capacity for this year.
For we shall enlarge the field at the
foot Of the great semi-circle of stone
seats; we started our field this year
with 400 chairs. BY the last week
of the concerts We had 1000 chairs
and then could not accommodate all
who wanted them. The new Stadium
field will have at least 1000
"The best Of conductors" said Mr..
Judson. programs Of real music,
Stadium that will be delightful to look
at, that is the plan for next year
What we have done this year is but
taste of what is to come in 1922. This
year we have purposely tried programs
of every kind We have found that
people want the best and most serious
music. That is what they viii get next
summer in the New York Stadium
that is to be.
In spite Of the greatly increased ex-
penses there will be thousands of seats
for music lovers at so cents. These
will be concerts Of high standard, with
in reach of everybody. What we have
found, and what is guiding us in our
plans for next year, Is that great or
chestral music thaws larger audience 9
than great solosts. We have discov-
cred through our programs Of this year
that nights Of the finest music mean
steady and increasing attendance every
night, instead Of occasional bursts of
large audiences.
"The Stadium and the Stadium Con-
certs of New York, we feel--and this
is the idea Mr.. Lewisohn and his com
mittee have in mind-have now proved
themselves, and the idea they have
established can and we hope will be
followed everywhere throughout Amer
ica. With trcllises running from every
side of the great new orchestral plat
form, with its fine sounding boards
which will be built with the new field
Of 1000 seating capacity and with the
stone steps Of the Stadium facing
this, the new setting for the Stadium
Concerts will be n place Of beauty
We have already started to bring
about these results for 1922"

TIE American public has long been
accustomed to instances Of ingratitude
IN the part Of foreign artists Worshp-
ers OF all things musical bearing Eu-
rcpean trade mark have been startled to
read far from fattering opinions of
American musical taste and appreciation
expressed on returning to their native
lands. BIZ visiting foreigners Of distnc-

w;rh bank accounts swollen with Ameri-
can dollars, 10 unburden themselves to
sympathetic irterviewers concerning the
vjcissitudes suffered at the hands of the
harbsrians across the water. In most
cases an immediate return engagement
is not contemplated or the artist naively
marines that such condolences will never
cross the ocean
But, in view Of his coming American
tour it is something of a surprise to
find so shrewd maker OF music as Herr
Richard Strauss indulging in remarks
scarcely calculated TO increase the size
OF audiences al his forthcoming concerts.
According TO an interview recently
printed in The Nation the German
composer talked not wisely, but too we'll
to Miss Henrietta Straus, who saw him
this summer at the State Opera House
in Vienna.
Herr Strauss, it seems, not only
greeted mis- visitor unsmlingly and as
unsmiingly presented her to his wife,
but churiishly began by saying:
Il will not give an interview"
Somewhat abashed, Miss Straus asked
about his latest work The composer S
wife hastily informed her that it is a
light three-act opera in small form for
small orchestra, entitled "1ntermezzo, .
with text also contributed by Herr
|: Strauss.
When the subject of his American visit
was preached, Strauss growled sulkily:
Il don't know about coming. They
won't pay me enough
The interview continued as follows:
I'VE would have TO live in New York
and it is very expensive there softly
explained his wife.
"Yes." | said, "but." turning to the
composer. 'you would have very good
opportunity, as we have had no really
eseat successor to Toscanini."
You have Bodanzky, and he is very
good for America he replied inso-
lentiy. America" he added, has no
understanding of Europe
Perhaps" replied with some asper-
ity. my own Strausian temper begin
ming TO rise, Europe has no under
standing of America"
"Salzburg," he continued gloomilv
ignoring my remark, needs q Fest
spielhaus; but that would cost mil
lion dollars. America ought to give it, -
At last said, slowly and curiously: :
IL you will tell ne just why America
should give Salzburg a million dollars
for Festspielhaus, will write it."
Because" he answered roughly
"Amerca has no culture. Culture Will
always come from Europe"
But" protested, at has been many
years since you have been in America

per cent. Renewals of outstanding
loans were also made at this level, the
lowest rate in nearly month. OF
more Significance, however, as an in
dex Of credit conditions, was the in
crease in offerings by the banks of
funds for fixed periods. The supply
OF time money was the most liberal in
months and brokers borrowed against
Stock Exchange collateral for ninety
days, or until we'll over the end of the
year, at fiat per cent rate, reduc-
tion of u from the recent level of
quotations. AT the same time the
rates on prime bankers acceptances
were slightly reduced.
Investment market records Of long
years standing were surpassed last
week in the extraordinary success Of
the $50,00O,00O New York Telephone
Company bond offering. Allowing for
the extensive padding of subscriptions
by dealers and individuals who fully
expected heavy scaling down in the
basis of allotments on applications, the
response of real investors to this is
sue was tremendous. Total subscrip-
tions approached s490,0o0,00O. The
bankers, in making up the allotments
on subscriptions, were forced to cut
down even applicants for $1,000 bonds,
something almost unprecedented in
public offerings. The rolling up of
subscriptions for this issue could hard
ly be attributed exclusively to the
prime character of the security itself.
1t was rather a demonstration of the
avid demand of the investment public
backed by the accumulation of huge
amount of investment funds and the
realization that changing money mar
ket conditions are working steadily.

| Inc Secretary's historic speech came'
at time when financial folk paricu-
larly were attending to take fatalis-
tic view Of the worlds troubles and to
lose confidence in the efficacy of grand,
all-inclusive programs Of any char
acter. Mr.. Hughes's message won ap-
probation because it was concrete and
businesslike.
/ Last week, the actual news in con-
nection with the armament conference
which the markets received consisted
mainly Of the acceptance of the Secre-
tary's speech IN principle by both the
| British and the Japanese. Astute
market traders discriminate between
acceptance in principle and acceptance
in fact, so that it is fair to assume that
the good effects of full adoption Of
the American proposals have not yet
been completely translated into changed
market values.

ability of cotton to resist the factors
making for reaction and the general
steadiness of security prices were the
reactions in the New York market to-
ward international political develop
ments at Washington, still somewhat
vague and not yet wholly understood
in their broadest significance.
cussions at Washington, which un-
questionably will mark an epoch in
history, has been continuance in the
very striking easement of money. The
! rapid retreat of interest rates toward
normalcy represents the effect of the
liquifying of hitherto frozen loans. A
diminished volume of business and
lower commodity prices ordinarily bring
easier money through curtailing the
demand for credit. Early this year the
country had both of these factors
| which contribute to money easement,
but the process of making the credit
supply more abundant was retarded
| The reason for the delay was the con-
dition of so-called frozen loans, where
borrowers, because of the quick recess
sion in business and the great decline
| in prices, were unable at once to pay
off maturing loans. The substantial
change in the situation in recent weeks
indicates an unfreezing of such credits.
The distinctly easier tendencies
noted in the money market are not
considered surprising in the light of
what has been happening during the
last twelve months in the general
credit situation. In the view of some
competent judges of banking conditions
it is indeed surprising that money
rates are not falling more rapidly as
surplus funds accumulate. At the
Stock Exchange last week borrowers
found they could cover their call loan
requirements on as low basis as Az
