Washington. D. C., Jan. 50 - Senator Bingham yesterday charged that the senate judiciary commit tees investigation of the qualities Of |. $. Marshal Jacob D. Walter. of Cheshire, for rcappointment seems to constitute an attack on him by Chairman Norris of the committee.
 The Connecticut senator is said to believe that the entire affair can be interpreted only as an exhibition or personal prejudice against Bingham on the part of Senator Norris.
 Yesterday passed without any ac- ton but it developed that the sub committee may hold hearings on the matter and call Walter as well as other Connecticut witnesses 10 Washington.

TWO-PIANO
RECITAL

Guy Mailer and Lee Pattison,
probably the greatest two-piano
ensemble now appearing in con-
cert anywhere, win be heard and
seen no more together In Wash

evening, November Q, as one Of
the four attractions that Mrs.
wilson Greene is presenting in q
gala performance that win inaugu-
rate not only her 1930-31 season
but also the Saturday evening con-
ccrt series she Is giving there this
season.
Lack Of two-piano musical lit
erature is the reason given BY
Maier and Pattison for their
rrc| |essional separation after Q
concert career together that has
lasted since 1918. These two pian-
lists have brought to light many
little-known compositions for two
pianos by Debussy, Arensky,
Rachmaninoff, Caesar Franck,
Saint-Saens, Mozart and others,
while two.piano compositions have
been dedicated to them by many
present day composers.
In the future, Pattison viii de-
vote most Of his time to compost

ideas for children's and young
peoples concerts. They will play

he gave Gilbert some months ago

possible to tell in the picture that

Gilbert, however, has several
good opportunities during the show
