BY BERYL RUBlNSTEIN
merican Pianist and Compose

| feel that there is greater under
standing and appreciation of music
among the masses Of people in the
United States today than in any
other country in the world.
This is not merely patriotic senti-
ment, but belief developed through
years of contact with the American
public.
The average audience in this coun-
try goes to hear music solely be-
cause it loves music. This is all
the more remarkable because we
have yet to develop great music
Of our own.
To the average German, Bach,
Beethoven, Wagner are gods. To
the average Frenchman, Debussy,
Faure, Bizet, DIndy are gods. To
the average Italian, Verdi, Donizet-
ii, Bellini are gods and the same
is true of Russia, Spain and other
countries.
But we in America like Bach and
Mozart, Debussy and Berlioz, Scar
latti and Corelli, Moussorgsky and
Rimsky- Korsakoff. This because we
love music and care not whence it
comes.
There are first class symphony
orchestras throughout the country
and the people support them because
they appreciate and enjoy music.
Without the support of the people
they could not exist. Music is also
becoming q subject of major import
ance in our schools, and concert
artists appear more and more in far
away communities where it is almost
financial sacrifice to the people to
have them.
Accompanying this great desire
for music is splendid instructive
discrimination between what is good
and what is poor. M
Great sums Of money have been
spent to endow musical institutions.
Great sums have been spent to build
concert halls, and great sums are
subscribed yearly to maintain musical
organizations, establish scholarships,
and otherwise promote music.
In 50 fertile a soil as that Of the
American people who do these things
the future Of music can feel itself
aasured.

Two new models of the Nash auto

The new ones are NO 322, the Nash
collapsible cabriolet with the rumble
