DEPLORES BRITAlN'S
IGNORANCE OF SPAIN
Ambassador at London Appeals to
British to Give More Attention
to Study of Granada.
Rr the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 17.-The English
peoples ignorance of and indifference
toward Spain and things Spanish
were deplored by the Spanish Ambas-
sador, Senior Merry del Val, in a
speech at the Authors Club last eve
ming.
Incomparably more wAs known of
England, her language, history, lit
erature and customs in Spain than
were those of Spain in England, he
said. He attributed this extraordi-
nary state of things to the ancient
estrangement of the two countries
which had been sedulously fostered
for political motives, now fortunately
dead.
Dwelling upon the influence which
the Spanish literature and language
had impressed upon human thought
and culture, he marveled that the
University of oxford had chairs il
the Arabic, French, German, Italian
and Russian languages. but none in
Spanish, and he appealed that this
omission be repaired.
Senior Merry del Val cited a tribute
to his nation by George Bernard
Shaw, who recently wrote: Spain
is a country where men still know
how to write plays"

her by her soldier boys" and the
war mothers, 'No--not Madame,
Mother Schumann-H -Heink,' began her
program with the traditional Bach,
singing MY Heart Ever Faithful"
Her phrasing of this song is beautiful
and enunciation excellent.

She then sang Max Bruch's Hell

this group Lieut.. Frank Owens, rep
resenting some of her boys" pre-
sented a huge bouquet of pink roses
sponded by singing Danny Boy" one
of the songs she sang so often in the
camps during the war. and an adap
tation of a popular old Irish melody.
Her second group, composed en-
tirely of German lieder. contained
many favorites. Franz Schubert was
represented by his AVE Maria" (sub-
"Wohin," "Standchen" (the famous
"serenade" with violin obligato,
which had to be repeated), and "Erl-
koenig," an encore. Especially beau
tiful was her Interpretation of Rich
ard Strauss "Allerse eelen." Robert
Schumann supplied three beautiful
songs in I'm Wunder Schonen Mo-
nat Mai" Aus Meinen traenen
Spriessen," and Die Rose. Die Lii
lie" Becker's "Fruehlingzeit" was
substituted for Fleischmanns "Frueh-
lingsreigen" and Rogers arrangement

Chadwick's Allah" Edward Collins

given. Arditi's colorful "Leggiero In

feet roundness of Nine Schumann-
