us. COMPOSERS
ARE RECOGNIZED
MORE BY PUBLIC
Thirty American Compositions
Played by Philharmonic Or
chestra at Concerts.

That the American composer is at
last beginning to come into his own
30 far as public recognition Is con.
cerned Is evident to all who keep in
touch with the trend of musical
events In the United States. A strik-
ing example of this recognition Is
found in the list of works played dur
Ing the season of open.air concerts
given In New York this summer by
the Philharmonic orchestra.
Sixteen American composers were
represented on these programs, some
of them a number Of times. In all,
thirty American compositions were
played. Nine out of the thirty were
based on rative themes or subjects.
Overtures and suites predominated.
The strict symphonic form and the
symphonic poem were not repre-
sented in tho list.
With the exception of Edward
Macdonald and Ethelbert Nevin. all
of these sixteen composers are living,
and the majority of them are young.
1t was noticeable that not one wom-
ans name was on the list. This
does not indicate unfair discrimi-
nation, however, as the American
woman composer has rarely used the
orchestral medium. Mrs. Fl. II. A.
Beach being the most conspicuous
exception in this respect.
These thirty American works were
placed on programs that included
symphonies, symphonic poems, over
lures and preludes by the most IA
nous classic and modern composers.
Yet an announcement that an
American composition was to re-
ceive a premiere performance never
failed to draw an exceptionally large
audiapca

In addition to the amount held by

Scout organization and methods to
France and who spent the entire
summer of 1921 in France in as
sisting the French authorities to per-
feet the Boy Scout organization along
American lines and ideals. Mr..
Greenhawk's salary is much less
than he could earn in ordinary walks
OF life. but he is interested in bow
hood and is devoting his life and
energies to the advancement OF Boy
Scouts.
In June, 1919, a campaign was
conducted for a two-year budget
and, as a result OF this campaign.
S15,750 was collected for the use of
the Boy Scouts. This amount suf-
feed TO finance activities up to June
1921, at which time another cam
paign should have been staged. Ow-
ing to the serious business depres-
sion prevailing at that time the
Council felt that It would be unwise
to go before the public for a two
year budget and. in the hopes that
in business conditions in the au-
tumn, few members OF the Council
borrowed on their own securities
$4,000 with which to finance the
summer activities. When October
arrived this community was faced
with the problem of raising $780,
600 to prevent actual suffering and
starvation among the unemployed
and with practically no improvement
in the business situation. Mean
time, the money borrowed by mem
bers OF the Council became due and
il further became necessary TO Sc
cure funds to meet current ex-
penses. In view OF these facts the
Council decided to conduct a quiet
campaign with the idea OF raising
$4,000 which would pay of the
outstanding obligations and finance
| activities until October. 1922. A
/ quiet canvass was made among a Sc
lected list OF names. every care being
/ taken TO solicit contributions from
only those whom the committee felt
would be in a position to contribute.
In spite OF all efforts the Council
realized less than $4,000 which sum
suficed to pay of the loans and
carry the current expenses to the
present time.
In view OF these facts. the COM
mittees decided that all expense 9TH
er than the salary of the Scouf exc
cutive should be eliminated and that

cure sufficient funds to finance the
