PLANSNANIBER'
MUSIC TOUR
ABROAD
Donor of Congressional
Library Auditorium
Invades Europe
By JEAN ELIOT

LREADY nationally known as
n a promoter and patron OF
music, Mrs. Frederick s. Coolidge
Is entering the international field
and viii sponsor a series Of chamber
music concerts in seven cities Of
Europe from September IL to Oc.
tober 16. All the compositions
played will be the work of con.
temporary composers, many Of them
being yet unperformed and written
Z to Mrs. Coolidge's order.
Until two or three years ago
Elizabeth Shurtleff Coolidge was
vaguely known to the majority of
Washing tonians as the founder of
the picturesque Berkshire Music
Festival. However, musicians and
discriminating music lovers hailed
her even then as the one person
who had done the most to develop
chamber music in this country. And
since that time she has built and
endowed the beautiful little chamber
music auditorium at the Library of
Congress and has precipitated
through this gift Uncle Sans first
personal participation in musical
development.
A Civic Feature
BY this time Washington knows
Mrs. Coolidge well and is familiar
with the stimulating and original
programs of chamber music put on
In the auditorium from time to
time. For this is an experiment
IN civic musical development and
tickets Tor. the concerts may be
had for the asking-if one asks
soon enough. They are in great
demand and 1t is not unusual to
find at the chamber music office a
bread line" similar to some reign.
ing musical success.
I In connection with the Elizabeth
Eprague Coolidge endowment, Mrs.
Coolidge presented to the music
section of the library a collection Of
manuscript music by modern com.
posers which Is now extremely val
nable and which win be one day
worth its weight in gold.
Here Last Winter
Last winter and the year before
Mrs. Coolidge spent several weeks
In Washington while some Of her
concerts were in progress. I seem
to be a bit in doubt as to whether
or not Mrs. Coolidge is to tour
Europe with her newest chamber
music organization. But no less
q parsonage than Hans Kinder is
to be manager Of the concert ser.
{ les. George Barrere is another
American musician, who will be
with the organization. Recitals
will be given in Venice, Vienna,
3 Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam, Brus-
kAls and PARIS

by relative firmness Of Liverpool

weather in the corn belt, grain prices
tended upward early today. Buying.
however. was chiefly of a scattering

wheat later scored some additional
gains. Corn started unchanged to

Advices current today from rec.
ognized trade authority said heavy
European requirements for wheat dur.
ing the Winter and Spring are con.
irmed and will have to be furnished
rom exporters supplies, which. how
ever, also are large. According to this

he requirements may offset the avail

nents should prove to be Of sufficient
volume to overwhelm the buyers
market.
In addition to adverse weather like
" to interfere with the movement of
corn from rural districts. comparative
,mallness Of receipts today at leading

Pending Action To
Come Before Con-
gress i'm December

Preparations for the conducting Of
a vigorous and intensive fight against
the Box bill-a fight which may be
carried TO the doors Of Congress
when it convenes in December, are
being made by the South Texas Cham
Der of Commerce, il was revealed
here late Saturday when some Of the
resolutions to be offered at the first
annual convention November ia and
is were made known.
Major Topic
Ray Leeman, general manager, an
nounced that the resolutions have
not been fully drafted and will not
be ready for release until a few
days, but stated that one Of the ma
jor topics will be the pending Box
bill which calls for a placing Of Mex
lean immigration on the quota basis
similar to European immigration.
Business and agricultural inter-
ests throughout the border are
stirred over the pending measure
which they declare will be placing
before them the most serious labor
problem which has ever confronted
them.
Labor Exodus
"The increasing exodus Of Mexican
labor to the north, coupled with the
dimunition Of immigration through
the Box bill, will spell disaster,
S. c. Tucker, vice president of the
South Texas chamber said.
According to advices from FL Paso,
q general meeting is to be held there
November III, Of farmers, business
men, bankers and others interested,
to make plans for an active campaign
opposing the Box measure.
Oppose Bad Agents
Although the South Texas Cham
Der officials did not give the text
of the resolution, it is known that
plans are also being made to wage a
campaign against unscrupulous la
Dor agents who are taking the labor
from the border country to the
north. antagonizing union labor
which is believed TO have been the
cause of agitation leading to the
formulation Of the Box Bill.
