avowed helplessness in acting IN
cases Of 1873 plate printers recently

S|ST|NE CHOIR
HOLDS THRONG
IN THRALL
Protestants Join Catholics in
Homage to Voices of PapaI
Choristers.
BY WILLIAM MOORE.

True music has no sectarian bar
riers.
This was never 80 manifest as
yesterday when Protestant and
Roman Catholic clergy and their
parishioners thronged Polls Theater
to hear the Sistine Chapel Choir.
With the exception of a sustained
"City Of Washington, Vivar' sung
to music especially composed for
the choristers' visit to the national
city, the program comprised ex-
clusively the rich ritualistic music
OF the Roman Church.
Modern Work Predominant.
The works of Maestro Don Lo-
renzo Perosi, regarded generally as
the greatest modern composer of &C.
clesiastical music, were predomi-
nant
1t is interesting to contrast the
music of Perosi with that Of the
great Palestrina. Perosps work is
more rmelodic than the old masters
and is not so polyphonic. Most Of
1t begins with a fugue movement
but the number parts have not been
developed quite so much as in
Palestrina's music.
In the "Alleluia" of Perosi, an
echo choir" of mems woes was
placed in the balcony, lending a
startling effect. In the Benedictus
the choristers rose to their full
stature of vocal perfection. A
tremendous. crescendo, ranging
from whispered pianissimo and
eliminating in a pulse-stirring
fortissimo, was executed with re-
markable skill.
Control Is Perfect.
The choir sings entirely a capella.
Mgr. Antonio Rella, perpetual vice
director of the Sistine Chapel OF
the Vatican, had his human sym
phony" always in perfect control.
We often hear of absolute pitch, /"
and it was ably demonstrated to us
yesterday. The choristers are per-
feet in pitch, tonal quality and in
depreciation.

Detroit Congressman Says
Most Members of LegisIa-
ture Are for Its Repeal.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.

DETROIT, Oct. 27.-Congressman
Clarence J. Mcleod of Detroit to-day
declared strongly against the con-
templated movement in Congress to
abolish the. present budget system
and return to the old 'pork-barrel''
plan of patronage.
1.-THE success Of the budget system
is an accepted fact.
To-day there is a surplus in the
Federal treasury Of millions of dol.
lars. Before the late President Hard.
ing inaugurated the budget system
Congress was called upon time and
again to pass deficiency appropria.
ton bills. The much-needed reform,
put into effect SO smoothly by the
Republican Congress and the Hard.
ing Administration. should be per
petuated.
cit is true, numerous disgruntled
congressman are planning its repea!
And let 1t be known that public
opinion must again be rearoused to
prevent the repeal Of the budget.
"I don't want to be an alarmist
but I know that practically every
member Of Congress, except those
who are members Of the Appropria.
tions Committee, are at heart against
the budget. because 1t has dcpriv ID
them Of the power formerly held
through their membership on nuInel
Gus committees, such as Military AT
fairs, Naval Affairs, Rivers and
Harbors.
II happen to know certain mem
bers of the Michigan delegation op
rosed the budget because their pride
was wounded when it took away
from the committees, of which hey
were members, the power to apprO
pirate. However, I doubt If they
Will have the temerity to publicly
register their feelings upon a vote
in Congress.
Il am glad to see the Hearst news
papers, as guardians of the public
arousing such a storm of protest
that these members whose personal
pride has been wounded will be
afraid of defeat should they carry
out their intentions"

have the exposition continued few
days longer, but this is out OF the
question, says Jose.
There are many good reasons why
