Comb City For
 Pledges To Fund
Non-Givers in Previous Campaigns Approached -In-
 jection of Politics Scored By Harris

from this latter group will be very great.
 The red buttons signifying those who give to the relief fund were very much in prominence through Wear the red button" is the slogan of the present drive for un- employment funds and it appears that the call is being needed ex- cellently.
 MT Harris and others to-day scoffed at the rumors being cir culated to the effect that the relief committee is allowing politics to sway the hiring and firing of men working under the unemployment committee. The relief body is functioning independently of poli- tics and only the needs of appli- cants for aid are considered, it was pointed out. The rumor spread was declared cheap attempt on the part of one or two persons to defeat the present drive for fur ther unemployment funds.
 Yesterday afternoon Howard o. Hunter of Bridgeport, a represen- tative of the American association of Community Chests and an in- yestigator of the emergency com- mittee on unemployment appoint ed by President Hoover, visited Waterbury and studied the local system. Yesterday, also, Thomas F. Moore received a telegram from one of President Hoover's secre- taries asking for further details on the Waterbury plan.

League Of Nations
 Trying To Pacify ::
 Japan And China
But the Japanese Seem to Hold Firm to Their Claims
 n
 of Rights in the Dispute {.

It's decision today rejecting the League of Nations suggestion that a mixed commission investigate the Manchurian situation. y4
 The league plan was shelved iL favor of the unofficial suggestion of T. V. Soong, Chinese minister of finance, that a Sino-Japanese mission conduct direct negotia- tions.
 The cabinet decided that no troops should be sent north of Changchun, Manchuria. A de- tachment of 800 troops was or- dered withdrawn from Chientao.
 China End of It
 Ranking, September 23 - (UPl Negotiations for settlement of the Manchurian situation were complicated today by an announce ment that the national Chinese government would not conduct df- rect negotiations with Japan.
 An earlier unofficial suggestion by Finance Minister T. V. Soong that direct negotiations be carried on was received favorably by Ja- pan.
 The latest Chinese decision. how. ever, was to leave negotiations in the hands of the League of Ma tions Council.
 High feeling between Japan and China was illustrated by China's refusal to accept 4,000 tons of food sent from Japan for relief of Chinese flood sufferers. Although supplies are needed urgently, the Japanese contribution was termed bitter bread' in view of the Japa- nese occupation of Manchuria.
 Ut would be bitter bread for our flood sufferers to swallow in view of the action of your mili- tarists," T. V. Soong said in a mes sage to Baron Fukao. When ca- tastrophe prostrates China, when 1O,000,000 persons are starving. you launch a dastardly blow, mocking the humanitarian feelings of your people"

MUSIC LOVING U. s. FORESEEN
 BY DAMROSCH
Envisi0ns 50,0OO Bands in Nightly Practice
 Throughout Land
By WwENDEL BURCH


 United Press Staff Correspondent San Francisco, - (UP) - Fifty years from now there may be 50.- 900 small-town bonds practicing every night from Maine to Cal ifornia, while in the cities bands as famous as those of Rome and Paris will flourish under great conductors and rich endowments, Walter Damrosch, famed New York Philharmonic leader, pre- diets.
 Here for the summer, Damrosch has been greeted with enthusiasm. His name, as conductor of radio concerts, during the past five years, which have reached 10,0OO,- 900 Americans weekly, is perhaps one of the best known to the pub lie.
 Heart of Americans
 Through my work over the air I feel that I have come nearer 10 the heart of the American people than perhaps any other conduc- tor" Damrosch said. "The radio is in the homes of rich and poor alike-with a majority in the mid dle-class homes.
 American is learning to express herself in the languag eof music, he declared. T know. nave visited many places. have watched the wonderful response to our nationally broadcast pro- grams. on which have placed the best in music"
 From this growing appreciation for the best will develop the abil- ity to express herself musically, Damrosch says of American. First will come songs of the people. A nation will sing; then genius. perhaps a school of musicians VIII seize on the. wealth of common property. and develop it into great operas, symphonies, classics heoer.
 Prophecies Colored.
 "Of course, my prophecies are colored by my hopes," the 7s- year-old leader said. But have seen such a marvellous develop ment. I remember the first concerts I gave to workingmen. That was near Philadelphia. many years ago. Now, think Of the au- dience every great program at- tracts. It is safe to say that there are more workingmen Tn 1t than | IlCn UT CNCii AhSA
 Jazz may have a place in this development. The music of Gersh- win and Carpenter has definitely paved the way for further work, Damrosch maintained.
 The small-town bands, and the big town bands, will come as the natural organization of a music loving people desirous of obtain ing self-expression, he explained. ''Thousand of high school students play in their school orchestras now" he asserted. Do you think that they will put aside their in- struments. just because they leave school? Certainly not.
 "They will form bands, orches- tras. In the family chamber mu- sic will assert itself. Here and there composers will not be satis- fled to So on playing other mems pieces. They will write great mu- sic-American music"
