LITTLE SYMPHONY
 IN CONCERT HERE
Famous Orchestra to Play for
 New Britain Musical Club

Following a concert at the Camp school auditorium last night. active members of the New Britain Musi- cal club held u business meeting al which Theron w. Hart announced the decision of the executive com mittee relative to artists concerts under the auspices of the club next season. Il had been voted by the executive board to engage the Lit tie symphony orchestra, of which George Barrere, the worlds greatest ilutist, is director, and Mary Lewis, one of the sensational new singers at the Metropolitan. Since that time, NIT. Hart announced, word had been received that Miss Lewis IS booked solid for next season and could not sing in New Britain. The club authorized the executive board to engage another artist in her place.
 Plans were also made 10 have the annual meeting Of the club at the home of Mrs. Ruth G. Horton in May. The executive board was also authorized 10 make arrange ments for the annual frolic of the club.
 The concert at the Camp school was one of the short and concen- trated kind developed by the club this year. It lasted only one hour and five minutes, the contributors being Mrs. Horton, soprano; Philip B. Smaller, tenor. and Roy 0. Tut tie, 'cellist.
 Mrs. Horton sang the Jewel song from Faust and three songs by Schubert and Grieg; Mir. Smaller sang an aria from La Bohemo and three songs; and together these singers joined In duet from Faust. Mr. Hart was the accompanist for Mrs. Horton, and Mrs. Emile Andzulatis played for MT. Smaller.
 Mir. Futile played d sonata in G minor by Handel, Mir. Hart being the accompanist.
 Mrs. Horton was at ease through out her singing, gaining the usual ap- proval of her friends. The Schu- bert piece was My Sweet Repose," with it's eXacting and eXhausting legato demands upon the singer Gricg's immortal classic. 'T Love Thee,' was given with fervor There vas much applause but there also was rule avoiding encorcS.
 Mir. SchaiIer chose Thy Tiny Hand Is Frozen" from the Puccini opera, a tender lyrical aria well suit cd to his voice. Tears of God" by Dent t-Mowrey, yielded another op- portnnity for affecting display Of vocal artistry.
 The Handel sonata played by Mr Futile had four comparatively short movements. At the time Handel wrote sonatas they had not been de veloped to the heroic proportions enunciated by Beethoven; indeed, I Handel sonata could just as well be called a suite. The second and fourth movements were sWift-noV.

RULER OF BELGIUM
REAL FINANCE KING
Yields Powers Which Make
Those of U. S. Money
MonarChs Tame.
NEA STAFF Correspondent
By Milton Bronner

BRUSSELS, Aug. 1.-The world
has real king of finance at last.
He is Albert. ruler of the Belgians.
Other so-called kings of finance"
merely are f1nanciers who huckster
money for profit. Albert is the real
thing, by sayso of the people ex-
pressed through their parliament.
He was vested with a financial
dictatorship in the hope he could
save the Belgian franc from a com
plete fadeout. His far-reaching au-
thority lasts until next October, and
may be extended indefinitely.
Z Acts Quickly
Albert has not been slow to make
use of his authority.
The visitor to Belgium quickly
feels the effects.
First of all the King called In the
best of Belgium's statesmen, flnan-
cial experts, and economists as ad-
visers, regardless of their political
affiliations.
Strict limitations were imposed on
the importing of cereals for bread
making.

break takes its place-in the kings
palace as well as to howell.
All-night resorts now close at mid
night. Foreigners pay a tax for
staying in the country.
Some of His Powers
The financial dictatorship edict
empowers King Albert to:
Negotiate any loans he thinks
necessary.
Modify the rules OF operation of
the Belgian national bank,
Increase taxes of all kinds.
Repress news which might injure
the credit. of the nation.
Regulate the use of foodstuffs.
Check the importation Of both
necessities and luxuries.
The railroads are to be turned
over to a private company for
operation. as a revenue measure.
It Is intended for the country to
go on a gold money basis.
Only a handful of deputies and
senators opposed giving the King
these sweeping powers. Parliament
afterward adjourned until Oct. 10,
so there would be no legislation on
debates to affect the situation.
The Belgian franc accompanied
the French franc on its headlong
tumble of recent months.
Parties Step Aside
Some time ago there was a coa1i-
ton in power in Belgium composed
Of Catholics under M. Poullet and
socialists under M. Vandervelde.
Their secretary of the treasury
tried to stabilize the franc and
failed. Then Poullett and Wander
yelde did a splendidly patriotic
thing

 Pat Collins, who for number of years has been operating by hand method and with hose on Notobac creek, at the head of Twin, has taken out a pit of approximately five thou sand feet, and his cleanup of the early part of the season indicates that his ground is improving in value. Bed rock pannings range as high as S5 cents, and he expects to have one of the best cleanups since beginning on Notobac. All operators have been badly hand icapped by continual drought, coupled ,, with one of the earliest brtakups known. The first rains came on March 2S, and instead of the usual spring snows, rain showers came instead, and continued alternately throughout the season, when travelling on the trail is ordinarily the best. By April first the ice began to give way across the Kahiltna valley, and is was neces- sary to make frequent relays on what ever crust offered.
 Most of the operators did not arrive at their diggings in time to take ad- vantage of the first run of water, hence the small pits ground-sluiced.
 Jack Lincke had a close call while crossing the Kahiltna on April 2. While making a run to cross rotten ice, his leader stopped at the top of a short steep bank, and Lincke broke through to his armpits. Holding the runners on his shoulders until he could wedge down the brake, he drag ged himself onto solid ice and saved his load, after being in the icy water five minutes.
