that parts Of Germany have suddenly
become democratic" the ear weary
of jazz band noises longs for the
song Of the nightingale, for the Sob
bing of the flute.
A great musician Of high standing
now is satisfying this longing. Rich
ard Strauss, author Of "Salome,"
Electra" .Ariadne" and "Rosen-
cavalier" has just lifted corner of
the veil of his married life. The
composers wife is the daughter of a
high German officer and formerly was
a professional singer.
Was COnsidered Proud.
In her youth she was considered
proud and quarrelsome, having more
interest in power, honor and riches
than in art. She was not ashamed tc
confess her taste, saying openly that
she preferred the company of in
dustrialists, financiers, ministers and
generals rather than that of artists
and theatrical people, whose CONVEX
sation bored her.
Now Richard, his youthful head
covered with the silver hairs of a
grandfather. is endeavoring to de-
fend his wife. A love letter. with an
illegible address, intended for COL
league named Stransky was sent
mistakenly to Strauss. The letter fell
into his wife's hands and caused
jealousy and all kinds of mischief.
Strauss now has chosen this tragic
comic episode for the subject of a
comedy with symphonic intermezzos.
wherein the wife. a much fea red
"Xantippe." is represented as a noble.

LONDON. November s. Stanley
Baldwin has made brilliant start as
primo minister. Public opinion Is
immensely gratificd by the character
Of the new cabin et which shows that
Mr.. Baldwin has no intention of being
stampeded into reactionary courses.
Die-hard Tories are dissatisfied, es-
pecially at the appointment of Win
ston Churchill as chancellor of the
eXcf equer. Twenty years ago Mr..
Churchill left the Tory party on the
free trade issue. In the interval he
has filled more offices in Liberal cab
!nets than any contemporary He
played an important part in granting
home rule to Ireland a fact which
dded to his unpopularity with the
die-hard Tories.
Now, after nearly 20 years as
Liberal. he reappears as a most i'm
portant member of the Cons rvative
government. with the prospect of a
further long reign. Naturally the
die-hards swallow their medicine
with a wry face.
Protection Policy Ditched,
1t means that Mr.. Baldwin he's def
nitely written off protection from the
Tory banner, for Mr.. Churchill is still
VIGOROUSLY unrepentant free trader,
hough he may throw imperial pref
erence as a sop to the protectionists.
Liberals generally welcome the ap-
Dointment. They recognize that
Churchill is the most dynamic force now
n British politics. 1t was feared that
he might appear in control OF the
!rmy or of the navy, where his mill
'9ry predictions would be most
dangerous. But at the treasury his
undoubted genius will be turned to
proper uses. The most daring
'oacher has become the game keeper,
ana everybody expects that he will
10 his job surprisingly well. His ap-
polntment fulfills Churchilrs ambi :
tion' as the son of his father RAN

BRILLIANT START AS PREMIER
CREDITED TO STANLEY BALDWIN

Curson From, Foreign Secretaryship
Wins Widespread ApproraI.

dolph Churchill fell because of his
pronosals as chancellor. He never
produced a bud"et and never recov-
cred his office. Now his son hopes to
make the speech his father never
made.
The next most satisfactory appoint
ment was that of Austen Chamberlain
as foreign minister. This involves
severe humiliation for Lord Curzon,
who regarded the foreien office as his
private prerogative. He is more
brilliant man than Chamberlain, but
is proud unpopular and ind screet
and Mr.. Baldwin is much praised for
having had the courage to leave him
out and make the selection of a safe,
responsible and trusted man like
Chamberlain.
Other Choices Approved.
The other appointments are gen.
orally approved and the new govern
ment starts under the best auspices
Some of the Tory papers are trying
10 raise the banner of revolt on the
protectionist issue. owing to the ap-
pointment of Churchill, but it will
come to nothing.
The result Of the presidential cleo
ton in the United States created no
surprise here, though the measure of
SuppoIt dccOTQeQ 10 La FOllette was
smaller than had been expected
President Coolidge's enormous vic
tory was taken to represent much
the same movement of ideas as Mr.
Baldwin's triumph here. The world
is in the mood to play for safety and
property owners everywhere are
alarmed at the challenge of Soviet
ideas.
Even Mr.. Macdonald, in his first
utterance since his defeat. denounces
the communists as the worst enemies
of labor, and a deadly struggle be-
tween the extremists and the
moderates of the party is inevita BILE.
The communists are much more
formidable in energy and ability than
in numbers and a suspicion that they
are financed from Russia is widely
prevalent. When the communists are
definitely accommodated by Labor,
approximation between that party and
the Liberals will become probable.
The great Wembley exhibition,
which was formally closed last Satur-
day by the Prince of Wales, is now
workmen. Attempts to arrange it's
reopening next year have small pros
poets of success. Some Is O0O, 900
people visited the exhibition, but the
financial result was heavy loss, due
mainly to execrable weather. 1t has
been the worst Summer in memory
and the closing days of the ceremony
proceeded in a drenching downpour
