DOUBLE CONCERTO
FEATURE At POLLS
Brahms Creation Pieasingly
Presented by New York
Symphony Orchestra.

Brahms Double Concerto for Vio-
lin and Violoncello," with orchestral
accompaniment, was the feature pre-
sented by the New York Symphony
Orchestra, under Walter Damrosch. at
Polls Theater yesterday afternoon.
Felix Salmond, cellist, and Paul
Kochanski, violinist, were guest So
loists. Both showed mastery in the
beautiful singing tone of their in
struments. The two solo instruments
might have been the voices of two
singers-strings always invite COM
parison to the human voice. In the
early measures tsese voices blended
in a somewhat prosaic parlando with
choral echoes interspersed by the or
chestra
Gradually the themes merged into
n melodious. romantic duet, the more
colorful mood emphasized excellently
by the plZzicato voices of the strings
in the orchestra. The richness of the
melodies increased as the work pro-
gressed and eliminated in n powerful
finale.
"Cnprice Espagnolc- fn Program.
Although the concerto was the fea-
ture, Rimsky- -Korsakoff's Caprice Es-
pagnole," Il brilliant and difficult ex-
ample Of the Russians mastery of the
art of orchestrat!ou, was a startling
work of the program. With cadenzas

with variations on practically all the
other instruments In the orchestra in
turn and then in groups, all contrived
to make the caprice thing Of vivid
beauty and charm. The audience sat
spellbound throughout its performance.
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony.
The symphony was the so-cailed
Jupiter SYMPHONY OF Mozart, one OF
his three great works OF this type. The
minuet and trio of the third movement
was really beautiful. The allegro vivace
of the first movement was colorful, the
andante cantabile movement was full
of swinging beauty and the finale was a
fitting summing up of the exquisite pat
terms of this work by the great COM
poser.

Seek Stendy Sky.
The object of establishing an OBJ
Srrvatory In the Southern Hemisphere
is to observe and to photograph stars
visible there but not visible in the
Northern Hemisphere. Conditions
there from an astronomical point of
view are very good. The astronomer,
looking at the stars through a tele-
scope, finds they appear TO tremble.
This is due to the heat waves, and he
longs for d, steady sky.
'It has been found that out on the
Neldt conditions are better in respect
10 steady skies than in other parts
Of the Southern Hemisphere, and that
is why we have selected South Africa
rather than South America, which is
more accessible. The work will be
chiefly in the field of measuring the
distance from the solar system of a
large number of stars and also to
observe them in respect to other stars.
Or. Harry l.. Alden of the University
Of Virginia will follow us and will be

LANSING, Mich, December 81
Aerial forest fire patrols will be tried
in Michigan next year for the first
time. The State Conservation De-
partment has decided to experiment
with planes in the northern part of
the lower and upper peninsula during
the dangerous season.
1t is planned to employ small ma
chimes with a 26-foot wing spread,
which can be landed readily. The
pilots will cooperate with observers

From central points the planes will
swing out each day on 500 or coo
mile loops over the forests. If a
blaze is discovered they will fly to
the nearest of the observation towers
and drop a message to the fire war
den. 1t is claimed that forest fires
are visible on clear days 40 miles,
from an airplane.

The recommendations of the board
included the following:
That tho sanitary district make
every effort TO clear up the con-
troversy over the drainage canal; that
the district proceed as rapidly as
possible to construct treatment works
costing 1925, 100000; that supplement
tary treatment works be built to care
for dry weather sewage and part of
the storm flow; that the district hurry
the building of plants to care for
industrial waste; that the city be
urged TO save as much water as pos
sible by installing meters and making
a water waste survey; that funds
from tho sale of bonds be used for
new construction only and that other
expenses of administration be raised
by taxation; that the district cooper
ate with interests fsvoring the lakes
to-the-gulf waterway. that a fair
settlement of all damage in the
Illinois River valley by the diversion
at Chicago be made promptly; that
the district contribute its proper part
toward the construction of lake regu-
lating works and that the district
apply to Federal authorities to divert
an annual average of 10000 feet of
water per second from Lake Michigan.
The control of the lake levels has
been under jurisdiction of the War
Department, and It is claimed that
tho sanitary district was never au
thorized to withdraw more than 1857
cubic feet of water a second.
The report formally was adopted by
the sanitary district trustees, and it
was announced that the findings,
which arc Yoiuminous will be used
as the principal argument in favor of
new legislation taking control of the
lake levels from the War Depart
ment, and enable Chicago and other
cities 70 proceed with sewage dis
posal projects.
No attempt, it was stated, will be
made to utilize the commissions re-
port in the oral arguments before the
United States Supreme Court next
week upon the appeal of the sanitary
district from the injunction ordered
by Federal Judge George A. Carpen-
ter, which, if upheld, would restrain
the district from taking more than
4,167 feet of water a second from
Lake Michigan.

LAKE WATER USE
BY CHICAGO 0. K. D
20 Engineer Leaders of Unit
ed States Approve of Sew
age Plans Long Under Fire.
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, December 27.-With-
drawal of 10000 cubic feet of water
a second from Lake Michigan to dilute
the city's sewage was approved yes
terday by commission OF 2S ma
tionally known engineering experts
who assembled from all parts of the
United States to make investigation
of the soundness of the Chicago SAM
tary plans for a $125 100000 disposal
prophet, including the water with
drawal.
Several States and numerous lake
port cities in other States have made
a determined fight against Chicago's
withdrawal of 10000 cubic feet of
water a second from the lake on the
ground that lowering the lake level
Is harmful to commerce.
The Chicago drainage canal which
reversed the flow of the Chicago
river and diverted the city's sewage
from Lake Michigan, with diiution OF
the sewage as the method of dis
posal. was approved by the board OF
prominent engineers, but 1t was
stated that the city's growth has ex-
ceeded the limits considered when
the canal was built, and the program
Of the sanitary district providing for
additions to the sanitary equipment
TO care for an increased population
VI oVObVVu tdIl year was dpploNVN.
Lakes Are Lowered.
The Chicago water diversion. the
board of review found, has lowered
the Great Lakes about five inches,
while diversions elsewhere and eli
matte changes have lowered the lakes
two or three feet. Reduced lake lev
els, the board said, have damaged
navigation and harbor works. Lake
fluctuations can be largely eliminat-
ed, and the lakes held near the high
est desirable levels, the board said,
by works constructed near their out
let's, these works being necessary, re-
gardless of the Chicago diversion.
The diversion of water here, the
board said, is necessary for sewage
disposal because il prevents pollution
of the lake, improves navigation
down the Illinois and Mississippi and
makes available hydro electric en-
ergy where needed. With lake and
river regulation it will confer these
benefits without damage to Great
lakes navigation and without af-
fecting navigation conditions in the
st. Lawrence River, and for years
without reducing power at Niagara
Falls and along the ST. Lawrence,
the board said.
