Recital Given by Member
OF National Symphony,

A NTONIO FERRARA, who is O
"A member of the National SYM
phony Orchestra and also on the
faculty Of the Washington Musical
Institute, gave a violin recital late
Yesterday afternoon at the institute
quarters. He was cordially received
by an audience which filled every
inch Of space allotted 1t.
This recital must be set down as
one of the real musical events OF the
season. Mr.. Ferrara chose dim
cult program and q scholarly one.
He played the Vital "Ciaccone," the
Beethoven Concerto In D Major"
the Sammartini "Canto AmoroSo,"
Cigars la Capricieuse" and two en-
cores which were richly deserved
among them the much-worn Mo
ment Musical" which for the f1rst
time in an eternity sounded inter-
esting rather than hackneyed.
Mr.. Ferrara is endowed with I'M
common technical facility. There
are occasions when his fingers get
the better Of his bow, and once or
twice he pressed rather TOO heavily
on the strings, thereby causing a
slight discoloration OF tone. In the
main, however, his tone was rich
tying "Canto AMBROSE" the tread OF
his measure seemed doubly mellow
and vibrant.
What endeared him to his audi
ence perhaps the most-after the
Vital "Ciacconne," which he played
with discretion but not too great dis
tinction-was the allegro ma non
troppo" movement Of the Beethoven.
In this difficult bit Of violin saga he
demonstrated the extent Of his con-
siderable technique and ratified on
the whole at O speed which, while
not as swift as q HeifetZ, yet proved
him q master whose system Is well
worth imitation. The ''larghetto"
which followed was by no means as
brilliant, but any deficiencies in the
latter were well made up for by the
final "rondo allegro" which he
brought to a noticeable climax.
For some intangible reason-since
the rest of the program was OF ex-
tremely high caliber (although the
Elgar is not one of this departments
favorites)- first encore, the
legro," seemed the most perfect bit
of expressionism on the program.
The long, strenuous bowling in this
was perfectly mastered and the tone
truer than It had been at any time
heretofore. It was as perfect rem
dition of this well known compost
ton as has been heard on any re-
cital platform.
Dorothy Coggeshall proved a SYM
pathetic accompaniSt, except for q
moment or two during the Beethoven
Concerto" when she seemed to lose
sight of what she was driving at.
For the most part, however, she de-
serves much credit for capable sup

i. S. WATERWAY
BOND ISSUE URGED
Piecemeal Construction Held
Too Costly at Mississippi
Valley Farley.

ST. LOUIS, November ga Gov
eminent bond issue to insure rapid
completion of the inland waterway sys-
tenn was proposed to the Mississippi
Valley Association at its opening ses-
sion here today. A vote on the pro-
posal was expected late this afternoon.
Gathered from all parts of the coun-
try, the delegates to the convention
heard speakers both for and against
the proposal. Those sponsoring the
bond issue method pointed out the
costliness of piecemeal construction of
waterways, the delays and the amount
of work which 1t was necessary to do
over because of lack Of continuous con-
struction.
Economy Need Cited.
An increase in appropriations by
Congress, always battle cry OF for
mer conventions, was not stressed to-
day, even the most ardent Of waterway
enthusiasts bowling to the demands for
economy in Government appropriations
and expenditures.
Outstanding in the addresses in be-
half of a Government bond issue was
that OF Senator Henrik ShipstAAd OF
Minnesota, who told the convention
tenn OF inland waterways would add
$622, 5000 to the Nations wealth an
nually in the form of freight savings

tanned, would enlarge the Government

terest on and amortize a Government
bond issue of $500, 100000. Such q
bond issue would be twice the amount
necessary to complete all Of the author
lied waterway projects in the country
The Senator criticized present meth
DDS Of building waterways, laying the
blame "for intermediate delays and
excessive cost of these improvements
to piecemeal construction under an
antiuuated method of Government
financing, a condition which no private
organization could afford or would toll
crate.

DEMOCRATS HOPE
TO WIN ELECTIONS
Leaders Expect to Capture
Two Seats, in Texas and
New Jersey.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Democratic leaders are counting on
special elections to increase by two
their majority in the House Of Repre-
sentatives before Congress convenes.
The Republicans, however, are con-
ceding nothing.
Representative Garner Of Texas, prob
able Speaker, has been informed in re-
cent kilograms that Democrats will win
the fourteenth district in his State and
the fifth New Jersey district, both for
merly held by Republicans.
Texas Called "Hoss Race"
Should these forecasts materiali1e, the
Democrats would have 219 seats, the
Republicans 214 and Farmer-Laborite
/. There is a vacancy in the f1rst New
Hampshire district which will be filled
at special election later.
The Texas election tomorrow Is viewed
by Representative Wood OF Indiana,
chairman of the Republican Congress
boss race which looks favorable to the
Republican candidate.
Three Democrats are running against
one Republican, Charles w. Anderson
campaign manager for the late Repre-
sentative Harry M. WurZbach, Repub-
lican. The high man wins.
New Jersey to Elect December 1.
The election of a successor to the
late Representative Ernest r. Alderman
in the fifth New Jersey is slated for
Tuesday, December /.
Although both Percy H. Stewart,
Democratic nominee, and Donald Nc
Lean, Republican, are anti-prohibition-
lists, the Democrats expect to fill the
usually Republican seat in view of the
victory of A. Harry Moore for the gov
ernorship. Moore, Democrat, carried
the district early this month by 10000
over the Republican, David Baird.
The vacancy in the fifth New Hamp-
shire district created by the death OF
Representative Fletcher, Republican
will be filled January 5.
