MUSIC VITAL PART
 OF JEWISH LIFE
Expression of Emotion Through Song in Home and Synagogue
(By Freda Regenbogenl


 There arc songs for births and songs for weddings, songs for harI- est festivals (the Hebrews were all agricultural poople) for victories in battle; for coronations of kings. Tho religious services arc composed of chants and melodies for a solols or a choir.
 Since the destruction of th" tenn. pie, instruments were no longer usoi at religious scrvices--as sign ot mourning and the modern Orthodox Synagogue still adhores 10 the cus- tom. However it makes uso of d male choir Women sat in a sep arate gallery, apart from the men, SO 1t was impossible to use womcn's voices Nowadays, when modern innovations have crept in, even orthodox congregations employ mix cd choirs.
 The cantor. or Chazan, plays a great part in the service. He usually improvises--basing his melo- dies on the traditional tunes that have come down through the ages. These are miraculously preserved, for until recent times thore has been no attempt st recording them beyond the accent marks in the Bi- ble and prayer books, which indicate rising or fall infections. Often. WI find a trace of the music which Is common world property In thcso i'm nrovisations--for the cantor has re- ceived A thorough musical training and bases his melodies on familiar motifs.
 Religious music goes on into the home On Sabbath evenings, thf greeting 10 Sabbath the Queen i' sung. and after the Sabbath meal z'riros (songs) Of praise to God fll the after-dinner pause. The bes known song Is Psalm 13T-B'shu' Adonoy-sung daily. 10 remind us In our present happy state. of th' destruction of Jerusalem and thu temple.
 Each holiday has Its home-songs joyous or sad. IS the occasion migh
 
 be.
 Certain prayers. which are reciter over and over, have a variety c tunes fitted to the varying mood in which they are sung.
 The folk songs, spring from m known sources. are the most popu lar. They reveal every phase O Jewish life. They tell of poverty. O love, of the loneliness of mother whose husbands are away to make fortune, of the love of learning, Q Sabbath observance of devotion t the rabbi
 The ChassIdim (pious ones) are al extremely orthodox group who, un iii the past century. were known fo simple, trusting faith, the faith tha arises out of ignorance. Their belle in the rabbi and his powers of inter vention for them is unshakeahie Their songs are inspiriting and live ly, with a Tilt that is catching.

MADRID UPRISING,
 HIGH TAX PROTEST
Patriotic Motives Not Believed
 to Have Inspired, Plot

Buenos Aires. June 26 lFD - IT, tra-conseryative generals. some of them of the nobility, joined with republicans In a conspiracy against the Spanish government because Of economic distress which was es- pecially felt in Madrid says a de- spatch to La Nacin from Hendaye, France.
 More than 100 persons including 3u military officers were arrested in Madrid alone Thursday, the de- spatch says. Some Of those arrest ed are believed to be free from blame and their only connection was friendship for the plOtters.
 The consensus in Madrid, 1t is declared, Is that the conspiracy was not inspired by patriotic motives but because Of dissatisfaction par ticularly in Madrid caused by the new tax laws and in the army be- cause os the substitution of the merit system in place of senority promotion.

Through fife Static

There was volume last night. Just sort ot keep your mind centered on that fact and everything will be lovely. Of course there was static. All you had to do was to go out ot doors and the reason was in evi- dence. Warm, damp weather and radio don't go hand in hand by any means. But, as We said, there was plenty Of volume so that made up for many things.
 
 Static sif'ed in with WIZ as Te listened to George Olsen and his or chestra. By Gosh. George still ham,
 mers out some Of the old ones. such as "Katinka," Bye, Bye B1ackbird" and Corn Fed Indiana Girl" Of course, we always enjoy hearing them, but he's been playing them
 now for several months and there mus be some new numbers which have just as much. if not more, ap- | peal. The Girl Friend" and new song which has not yet been pub ished, Far, Far Away" not with out i,s musical passages, were among others.
 WTIC, one Of the few stations, or rather, the only station free from static, presented the Colts Park dance orchestra in program Of very usual numbers. Bye, Bye Blackbird" opened the program. There vas nothing out Of the ordi- nary about the orchestrations or about the musicians performance, but the program was enjoyable. Debutantes at WTIC too last eve ming. No. 10 was a whistler. The 1 program vas fair, although whist | ling isn't the best sort Of stuff in the world to do over the air The notes don't register properly for some reason or other. Prisoners Song and Listen to the Mocking Bird" were two of the numbers. No. 6, pianist, rendered "Recollections Of Home" very commendably and No. s, who played the bones, fur nished several novel features. His work was excellent. although the piano accompaniment. almost killed the sound Of the instruments at times.
 From WGY. Schenectady, we heard the closing part Of a comedy.
 The Arrival Of Kitty" which was presented by the WGY Players. The station came through loud and smooth. but o. M. s. was much in evidence.
 1 Then We ran over to WHN, where ! the Coney Island bouts were being broadcast There seemed 10 be no excitement whatever and even the announcer sounded bored. Dancing around the ring and falling into
 many clinches featured the bouts throughout.
