Northcliffe's Fears for
Palestine Held BascIess
Nathan Straus Declares Reports
of Anti-Jewish Agitation
Arc Oyerdrawu

Commenting on Lord Northcliffc' S
recent statement that the antj-Jcwish
agitation in Palestine Is growing ex-
tremely grave, Nathan Straus said yes
terday that he feared tho English pub
licist has been misled by hearing one
sided accounts of the situation during
his brief stay in that country. Refer
ring to Lord Northcliiie as n friend of
the Zionist movement, he said that the
alarinist view taken by him at this
time would have tho effect of adding
fuel to the f1ames that had been
famed by misguided Arab agitators.
The Arab masses art creduIous and
easily misled." said Mr.. Straus, "but to
any one who knows the situation in
Palestine it is clear that their inter
ests arc most closely allied with those
OF the Jews who are preparing to re-
vivc the industries of the country and
who are receiving aid from all parts
Of the world. feel sure that when
Lord Northclitfe realizes this he will
do all he can to clear the misunder-
standing that exists among the peoples
thcre,
"'The Balfour declaration of justice
to the Jews, Endorsed by the Allied
powers. is definite pledge to the Jew
ish people TO rebuild Palestine. and
England does not treat her pledges AS
a scrap of paper This declaration has
also met with the warm sympathy Of
the Amer rican people, which has been
expressed at various times by Wood
row Wilson, President Harding and
many Senators and Representatives.

S'Tosca" Sung at Benefit
For 5th Ave. Hospital
Mime. Jeritza, Chamlcc and
Scott in Cast: "'Lorclcy" Is
Heard in the Evening

Two Italian operas, vastly different
IN theme, were presented at the Met
ropolitan Opera House yesterday. In
the afternoon musical melodrama held
sway, when Pucclnis "Tosca" was sung
for the benefit OF the Fifth Avenue
Hospital, with Nine Jeritza, Mr..
Chanlee and Mr.. Scott as chief pro-
tagonists
In the evening Catalinis "Loreley,"
based on the Rhenish legend Of the
goldenhair siren, had its second per
formance this season. In spite of it's
we'll made and dramatic music. in spite
OF certain charm which clinrs to
any work in which inhabitants Of
fairyland play an important part, to
some this opera seems hopecssly old
fashioned. "Sncgourotchka," too. il g
fairy opera. but the score is treasure
house of Russian folksong: national
legends and customs peep through tho
fanciful scenes of the ibretto and
there is touch OF grotesque humor
about many of the minor characters
which charms and entertans.
On the other hand, Walter. Hermann
and Anna are not persuasive person
ages. but intensively operntic puppets.
Ihelr tangled romance awakens no
burning interest in the minds Of som e
spectators, while even Loreley, her
seh' working her nefarious spell,
throws little cnchantment upon the
casual observer. Beautifully staged
and as beautifully sung, it might be
wished that the resources Of the Met
ropolitsn Opera House had heen
turned in the direction of some opera
OF livelier interest

Loeffler's Fantasies
Mr.. Loefflers native tongue is
neither Gaelic nor Erse, for he is an
Alsatian, but he is a modern musician,
with fancy which can penetrate to
the heart of any subject and a capacity
for uttering the modern orchestral
idiom second TO that Of no composer
alive. He calls his settings of these
songs fantasies by a greater right than
the late Gustav Mailer called his set
tings of six German paraphrases Of
Chinese poems symphony. Their es-
sence lies in the instrumental part of
them; the singers voice does little
more than provide a guide to the or
chestra's exposition OF the contents of
the poems. Debussy makes use of
Iberia; Mr.. Loeffler goes to Irish folk
tunes to illustrate the sentiments Of
the words of his poets. He quotes, he
paraphrases and he initiates, but al
ways with fecund individual fancy
in his melodic contours and an exqui-
site sense OF euphony in his applics-
tion OF colors. His music for the song
OF the blind minstrel is big with elo-
quence, beautiful prcachment and
q persuasive plea.
Delightful humor dominates "rhe
Fiddler of Dooney" Cat its foundation
lies rollicking jig capitally worked
up and the sound of the pipes in "The
Host OF the Air" melts away mysteri-
ously, vanshes in thin air. drifts
away like wisp of smoke. Mr.. Loet1ler
has disclosed himself in a new mood
in these fantasies, one that is as amia-
bic as it is admirable. Mr.. Mccormack
put his heart into the songs. and in the
few instances in which the words were
not clearly conveyed to the ears of the
listeners the fault was not that Of his
voice or diction, but of few obstrcp-
erous passages in the orchestration
Singer and composer were repeatedly
called to the platform.

In novise distinguished was the
performance OF Schubert's great SYM

the men from Boston in Carnegie Hall
last night. It's best feature was that
which was iaudabie because it was in
marked contrast with other perform
ances OF the work which distrcs ssfully

which the composers lyricism, espe-
cially in the last movement, was
crushed by the noise Of the augmented
brass contingent, and plug was

but an unbeautiful one, with the celes-
tial being that Schumann found haunt
ing the Andarte. For permitting his
strings to assert their privilege OF be-

Monteux deserved well at the hands Of
the audience; but he did not invite the
music to exhale all Of its beautiful
poesy. It was, in sooth, rather
prosaic reading,

pupils in Franklin school. of which he
is the principal Now, he not only knows
the names of every pupil, but he has
a personal acquaintance with the moth
ers of every boy and girl, for he has
just completed census Of his school

card index system.

says Evans. For instance there was n
little chap who was cratic, and not al
ways dependable. Evans learned when
ne visited the mother. that the child
has been extremely nervous since a
severe attack of the flu, several years
ago. The boys school work will now be
gauged according TO his ability to handle
il. Another case was that OF girl who
got "D's' in all her studies. Her mother
declared her intention of taking her
out of school because she was learning
nothing. When Evans called he found
the girl reading u novel instead of pre-
pairing her lessons. A talk with the
mother convinced her that the girl
needed discipline at home to produce
better results in school.

PIT!SBURG MEN
Want CONCRETE
ROAD IN COUNTY
Delegation Of Twenty Calls on
Governor and Highway De-
partment; Much Argu-
ment Follows.

OKLAHOMA CITY.--A committee of
20 Pittsburg county citizens headed by
Charles w. Bryan of McAlester WAS
in conference at the capital Saturday
morning with Governor Robertson and
state highway department officials re-
garding the material TO be used in three
federal aid road projects in Pittsburg
county.
Members of the committee indicated
that concrete would be the only mater
ial acceptable TO them and objected to
a recommendation previously made by
the highway department that red shale
and asphalt be used.
Max Cunningham, state engineer. ex-
planned the endorsement of the shale
and asphalt by saying that both ma
terials had proved satisfactory in this
state, and that $4,000 would be saved
by using them instead of concrete. He
said also that the contractors making
the lowest bid on this kind of road
agreed to complete the work within 200
days while the shortest time promised
for the concrete type was 800 days.
The projects under discussion are on
the jefferson highway and one is Oh
the Postal Highway.
