Poison Gas

Since the days of the world war have been led
to- 6slieve that poison gas was most inhumane
weapon, that it was barbarous and cruel, almost
fendish There has apparently never been any argu-
ment against that viewpoint, at least not publicly.
Consequently all the pacifist organizations. in their
labors for fewer wars. but more humane ones, have
welcomed the Geneva protocol which would prohibit
the use Of poison gas in warfare.
Quite unexpectedly however, we have opposition
to such ratification, from . totally unexpected
source. The American Legion. The Legion opposes
the ratification the rather astonishing grounds
that poison gas is one Of the most humane weapons
used Ia modern warfare
This comes Is : Distinct shock, SCATTERING as it
does oil our preconceived ideas on the subject Yet
Ne cannot doubt that the stand Of the Legion il tc
proper one. After ILL., the Legion boys are the ones
Who fought u France and experienced the poison

works and one who has chosen the
piano as his instrument for musical
interpretation, presented program
that was especially interesting for the
modern and American works 1t IN
cluded at the Washington Club last
night. AS many of those in the au-
dience were personal friends OF Mr.
Olmsted, a. decidedly informal air was
evident in the soloist's attitude toward
his audience. A lovely touch OF Spring
was given in the two huge vases or
fruit blossoms conspicuous on the plat
form. Mr.. Olmsted remarked during
the course of the recital that he was
not to be judged as a pianist, but as
"a novelist at the piano"
In the first number, a two-piano
suite by Arensky, and the last. Rach-
maninoff's Concerto in c Minor" Mr..
Olmsted was assisted at the second
piano by his sister-in.law, Amelia NJ.
Olmsted. The writer did not hear the
first suite, but in the concerto Mrs.
Olmsted showed fine cooperation with
the first pianist under rather trying
circumstances, for the two players
could not face each other, as Is GUS
tomary, and she had to trust to COM
plete rhythmic coordination through
the medium of the notes, which both
used.
A group of rarely heard MacDowell
pieces formed an interesting picture
Of the work of one American COM
poser. Quite different in mood and
treatment was the group of modern
American pieces by Eastwood Lane.
They are especially full of life and
color. Mr.. Olmsted. who is a friend
of Mr.. Lanes. played Katrina 3
Waltz" from SLEEPY Hollow" and
"The Pow-wow, written in the Amer
ican Indian idiom. Because Of the
length of the program. he unfortu-
nately chose to eliminate the other
equally delightful Lane composition,
''Persimmon Fucker" which uses a
jazz itliom.
Other musical selections included
works by Schuett. Ravel Scott and
Debussy. Between two groups, Mr..
