YOUNG COMPOSERS
TO HEAR OWN WORK.
Arrangements Made for Try
outs of Symphonic Com
positions in Infancy.
By the Associated Press.

! By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. December l9.-The
man who jumps out OF an aeroplan ne
| never knows until he feels that un.
mistakable pull at his shoulders
whether his parachute is going to
open. Just so. the imaginative genius
who composes q score for symphony
orchestra does not know how it
sounds until he hears it played.
The analogy here may not be pre-
else. but is intended to establish the
point that the jumper and the COM
poser suffer from nervous suspense
until that time of certainty arrives
Several persons in New York lately
put their heads together and dag.
nosed the apparent anemic ailment of
American music. The decision they
arrived at was Americans must be-
come writer's of genuine symphonic
producer of first class musical art.
Hearing in Infancy.
The corrective measures for the i'll,
they concluded, We're to remove that
too prolonged period of suspense and
give a hearing to symphonic compost
tons in their infancy. or in their
incubacy. They laid their plans and
took them to the State Symphony
advancement OF American art and
artists it would have it's orchestra
play scores of youthful composers
who would have the opportunity to
listen and receive criticism.
The society decided to do more than
this. 1t adopted Il threefold program,
resolving. first, to interest itself eSpe-
cially in unusual music; second, to
foster and encourage young and
promising American musicians and to
develop an American conductor, and
third, to carry its performances of
good music to the masses.
In accordance with the first part of
this plan the orchestra obtained the
services OF Ernst Won Dohnanyi, Hun
garian in birth and education, whose
forte is popular rendition of unusual
masterpieces.
VIII Try Compositions.
To provide for rehearsals of I'm
published symphony scores the society
has set aside ten Saturday mornings.
In charge of these trials II has placed
q young American, Howard Barlow
retained as associate conductor of the
symphony. 1t will be Mr.. Barlow s
part TO adapt the scores submitted, re-
hearse his orchestra In them and
then, at private sitting with critics
and members of the symphony
society, play them through while the
composer listens.
Mr.. Barlow. critics, members of the
orchestra and officials of the society
viii then confer. decide on the good
and bad features of the work, and
then offer their findings for the con
sheraton OF the writer that he may
take them home and mediate on the
result. If he chooses, he may revise
his manuscripts and return them to
be played again.
And the young musician-generally
pictured a. frayed ut the elbows and
too poor to live decently-gets all this
service gratis. He is only required
to write the music and orchestrate II
FOR enough pieces to satisfy the de.
mands Of symphony.

Figures of the National Bureau Of
Economic Researeh).
THE total percentage Of organization
l. among the wage earners Of the
United States, averaging the above
figures. is 1888. These figures are
of 1920 but as we have already seen
there has been an actual decrease in
the membership of the A. F. Of L.
since that time.
But the actual situation is even
worse than the figures indicate for
the reason that outside OF coal min
ing, rail transport and the building in
dustry, the organization of workers
in basic industry is negligible.
TN the steel industry for instance
4 the Amalgamated Association Of
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, the only
union in the industry, had 11,100 men,
bers in 1924.
The Longshoremen have 30500.
The Seamen have $4,000.
The Timber Workers, the only A. r.
Of L. organization in the lumber in
dustry, have passed out of existence.
In the metal mining industry the
international Union Of Mine, Mill and
Shelter Workers has 9,i00 members.
In the Food Industry the Meat Cut

ROME, Oct 2S.-American banking
capital is pouring into Italy for the
purpose Of financing the rapid indus
trial development that is taking place.
In addition to the Ford-Fiat combina-
ton, which is known to be outside the
regular Wall Street combination, the
National City Bank of New York is
also investing heavily in industries
here.
More than 100000 is being invest
ed in the development Of a great
hydro-electric plant to be constructed
in Milan. Another S1,OOO,000 is invest
ed in textiles. Both of these concerns
are to be dominated by the National
City Bank, through loans.

The newspaper, Populo de Roma,
formerly the Populo de Italia, launch
ed by Mussolini in 1915 and still his
personal organ, is enthusiastically in
favor of the inroads Of American cap
ital. The only financial support OF
the paper comes from the Industrial
list group in Italy.
This signifies the rise Of American
financial capital over Italian industry
and gives Wall Street greater incent-
i've to aid in maintaining the Mussol-
mi dictatorship.

paign is referred to the executive
council" that charnel house Of labor's
shattered hopes, without endorsement.
ITO sum up:
4 l. The Atlantic City convention
shows that the A. F. of l.. leadership
not only prevents and sabotages or
ganization Of the unorganized but that
it consciously and deliberately follows
a policy of disrupting existing unions.
2. That the only attempts made at
the convention to start real organiza-
ton campaigns, locally and nationally,
were made by delegates from central
labor unions and state declarations of
Intercollegiate who are close to the
dues.paying membership.
8. This shows that there is real
desire among the union membership
for militant organization drives, that
they want to bring the unorganized
into the union.
4. The final conclusion to be drawn
is:
That the best, or at least one of
the best slogans for the left wing is
Organization of the unorganized"
and that with constant emphasis on
this basic need of the labor move
ment, a big progressive bloc can be
built up against the crooked officials
whose policy is one of destruction.
So simple and elementary is this
slogan and so apparent the stubborn
opposition of the bureaucrats to its
application that every honest trade
unionist can be brought into the left
wing struggle on this issue alone.
