light to those who like fine music pre-
pared with thoroughness and respect.
Ruby Smith Stahl, the director, de-
serves unstinted credit for the way In
which she has built this chorus and is
continuing to improve it. Mrs, Stahl
also is soprano Soloist in the quartet
which includes Dorothy Halbach, con-
tralto: Madison Taylor tenor, and Rob-
ert Howe Harmon, basso, The quartet
appeared TO advantage in one ihcrt
group.
The composers represented on this
program rather favored the Russians
works by TSchaikowSky. Rachmaninof
and Arkangelsky appearing in the four
groups, with TSchaikowsky represented
by four numbers in all None of the
early italian composers of choral music
was listed not unwelcome change on
such a program, for there has been
much of Pergolesi and his school in
other fine choral programs, Only the
early Flemish composer, Arcadelt, was
given place last night American COM
posers were pleaSingly represented, in
cluding arrangements by Clarence
Dickinson and works of Samuel Rich

standing appreciation from the audience
during the evening was the final chorus
"BenedictuS" "--Gounod-T THUS. with a
particularly lovely contralto solo as
sung by Mrs, Halbach. 1t was repeated
by request.
1t is with pride that Washington

He said that equipment already was
installed in 300 theaters, that orders
had been received for 500 more, and
that before the year is over, 1000 thea
tiers would be equipped for talking
movies
Otterson voiced iubilation over the
signing of the contracts, but would
make no prediction as to the result the
action would have on r. G. A S position
in the movie field. Others, however,
expressed the opinion that r. c. A.
would push their talking movie system
for home rather than theater use.
It was understood that the companies
signing contracts today acted as

continued growth OF two licensing COM

 ROW IMPENDING
Mrs. Helen Tufts Bailie Is
 Facing Charges

Boston, April 2S lP,-Mrs. Helen Tufts Bailie, direct descendant Of Il Revolutionary hero, and leader Of an lnsurgent group within the Daughters of the American Revolu- ton, today faced the necessity of de lending herself against formal charges designed to censure, suspend or oust her from that organization. The woman who recently exposed the existence in this state of q "blacklist' against numerous we'll known public persons for their views allegodly in opposition to b. A, +. national policies. declared she would light to the end
 The charges against her were con- taincd in petition filed with tho national board of management of the organization and signed by 19 officers and members including Mrs. Sarah l.. Guernsey, honorary presi- dent general and Agnes Holton Banks. vicc-president general and five state regents.
 Mrs. Bailie is charged with having conducted herself in a way, "calcll- lated to disturb the harmony and injure the good name of the national society,"
 Mrs. Bailio first came into public notice in connection with the an. nounced advocacy by national off cers of the pending naval construc- ton program. She headed a dele gation last February of 14 insurgent members and officers of three Bos- ton chapters which submitted a peti- ton to the president general pro- testing against the D. A. K. position with reference 10 the naval pro- gram.
 The same petition stirred public controversy by the revelation of the existence of a "blacklist" in Massa- chusetts. Later Mrs. Bailie exposed the blacklist which carried on it's rolls as ''unpatriotic" the names of many prominent men including na- 'onally known clergymen and edu- cators.
 The recent national convention Of Inc D. A. K. at Washington rejected ] by an overwhelming vote a move to censure the society's national off cers in connection with the black list. Mrs. Bailie was not a delegate 10 the convention but was in Wash Ington while 1t was in session.
