Piano Recital
At the Arts Club.

AT the Arts Club.
nELPHINE DODGE BAKER was
presented by Felian Garzia in p
piano recital at the ARTS Club last
night.
The quality of the first half of the
program, which included Scarlatti,
Bach, Chopin and Debussy, varied
greatly in execution. There was an
unnatural amount Of rubato in Scar
lattfs "Pastorale, an excess of pedal
which blurred much of the "Chro-
matte Fantasy" and parts of Cho-
pins "Polonaise in A Flat" and a
vagueness in the iatter's Prelude
in F." On the other hand the runs
in the Fantasy" were liquid and
pure, the opening of the Ministries"
was appropriately harsh and abrupt,
the Clair de Lune" also appro-
priately undulating and misty
throughout. The "Polonaise" was
astonishingly powerful. The difficult
passage in octaves for the left hand
was vigorous and steady.
Mrs. Baker reached the fullness
of her abilities in the Grieg Con
certo in A Minor" for which mfr.
GarZia played the second piano.
Here she exhibited complete tech
nical mastery. The rhythms were
steady and precise, her fingers never
faltered in the passage work, the
pedal was clear and the structure
was logically felt. She played the
Concerto" with an unusual COM
mand OF dynamics and of tone COL
ors. Only imagination, added to
technical control and real musical
feeling could penetrate so deeply
into the intentions Of the COM
poser. D. G.

GLASS ASKS PROBE
ON RESERVE PLAN
Move to Broaden U. S. Base
for Borrowing by Banks
Suspicious to Senator.

LYNCEBURG, Va, October 1O.-Sen-
ator Carter Glass, charging that various
interests are Selling upon President Hoo
ver'S proposals for temporary expedients
In an effort to broaden the field of
stock and bond speculation, today adj
Vocated a searching inquiry into the
necessity of broadening the base of
eligible paper" for borrowing from
Federal Reserve Banks.
IL seems to me that another attempt
is TO be made to clutter UP the Federal
Reserve Banks of the country with
speculative securities and thus amplify
the opportunities of stock and bond
operators to ply their trade and to
disturb the business of the country
periodically as result of their excess"
The Virginia Senator said.
Senator Glass. who is chairman of
the Senate subcommittee charged with
recommending banking legislation at
Inc next session Of Congress, expressed
ms views in letter to Senator Joseph
L. Robinson OF Arkansas, the Demo-
cratic leader, and several other prom
inent members of Congress.
"Of course Congress should promptly,
without a moment of unnecessary hest
tation, cooperate in any sane and effec-
tive plan to relieve the existing de-
preston and particularly to guard
against repetition of the disaster, j."
Senator Glass said. But it does not
necessarily follow that this may be done
by tampering with the Federal Reserve
Banking System in order to promote
the business of those largely respon-
Sihle tH precipitating situations of this
kind"

WORLD FINANCIAL
LEADERS CONFER
.:
1.|+-~ -------
New York Federal Reserve
Representative Is at Basel
+ for Meeting.

BY the Associated Press.
BASEL. Switzerland, October 10
Randolph Burgess. representative OF
the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York, began here today a series Of
informal conferences with international
leaders of finance upon all phases OF
the world situation. The conference
began on the eve of the monthly
meeting of the directors of the World
Bank for International Settlements.
It is understood that Burgess mission
is to. obtain all possible information
about European monetary conditions
and to furnish to his European
colleagues accurate information on the
situation In the United States.
Leaders here believe lack of accurate
information on monetary problems,
both in the United States and Europe,
are responsible to a considerable degree
for, what is termed here the prevailing
confusion
There were authoritative denials to-
night that Burgess brought large
stock of gold to the World Bank S
vaults, but it was learned the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York had some
funds on deposit here These funds
were described as mot large and no
one was willing to say how long they
have been here.
The American banks representative
Is a guest of Gates w McGarrah. presi-
derit of the World Bank. He intends to
remain here several days but he will
not participate in the directors meeting
which begins tomorrow afternoon.
In bank quarters tonight it was re-
garded as not likely that the present
meeting would result in any definite
concerted action for the restoration Of
world financial stability. There was
even q suggestion from an excellent
source that world improvement should
not be looked for through international
action.
The upturn. 1t was indicated. Is more
likely to come gradually without dra-
matte developments, one country first
getting back on its feet and leading
q slow movement of others to confidence
and prosperity
In authoritative quarters the United
States was regarded as having the best
chance of leading the way to recovery.
Among those with whom Mr. Burgess
conferred today was Montague Norman,
governor of the Bank of England.
