AS UNIT
A. F. of l. at Convention to
Add All Welfare Plans to
Its Own Program

Coordination of a complete
legislative program to relieve and
aid Federal employees with. the
general welfare program of the
American Federation Of Labor
will be effected next week at
Cincinnati, at the A. F. of L.
annual convention.
The unified program, express
ing labor'S all-inclusive desires
and plans, will be whipped into
definite shape and submitted as
a whole to the coming short ses-
sion Of Congress, then supported
as an entirety by the entire
organized labor movement, it was
said today.
All Labor Backs Employees
Thus the objectiveS Of organ
lied Federal employes-including
modification Of the economy act,
optional 3O-year retirement; lib
eralized retirement methods, and
other features-will get the sup
port Of the entire labor move
ment and those members OF Con
gresS who are friendly to its
aims.
Victory Prospects Seen
According to Vice President
David R. Glass, of the American
Federation of Government EN-
ployeS. affiliated with the A. F.
of L., unifying Of the white col
lar" Federal workers program
with the nationwide labor move
ment in general will increase
prospects for early relief for the
Government employees.
Glass will attend the A. F. Of
L. convention, and says thct since
the federation already has ap-
proved the Government workers
objectives, full cooperation of the
two groups at Cincinnati is as.
Sured.

Music and Musicians
Reviews and News of Capitals Programs.

Christmas concert of the choral
group of the Arts Club. The spirit
reached the audience, which listened
with sincere attention to the rev.
erend interpretations which the
chorus gave.
The program was arranged in
progressive order of sentiment to q
gradually developed end and was Of
high musical merit. The chorus
caught the elevated conception which
Mr.. Simon wished to convey and
sang with feeling and careful
thought for effect. So sincerely had
the progression been accomplished
that the singing of "Silent Night"
was climax of great beauty both
as to pictorial idea and rendition.
With dimmed lights in the hall
and glowing Christmas tree in the
background, the chorus sang DAM
rosch's arrangement of "Silent
Night" on a breath of tone and with
deep feeling that brought intimately
close the picture Of that night. An
incidental solo was sung by Erbin
Thomas The impressiveness caught
the audience and it rose at Mr..
Simon's suggestion to take part in
the final number, For Unto Us
Child Is Born" from "The Messiah"
The chorus, which has so men,
bers, responds readily to Mr.. Simon's
direction and marks well the shad-
ings he indicates. Particularly fine
singing was done in the "Bere-
dictus," from ''Missa Chorales," by
List, and in "Lo, How a Rose Fer
Blooming" by Praetorius. The

Two Fine Artists
At Townsend Musicale.

ht 1OWuSCuu MuSICotCs
1.-TWO artists OF unusual excel
1ence weree heard yesterday
at Mrs. Townsend's morning
i musicale. Andre D'Arkor,
Belgian tenor, and Crete
Stueckgold, soprano, Of the Metro
politan Opera gave a program Of
some Of the favorite compost
tions in song literature and sang
them with the finish, the ira
ditionS and the control that has won
them recognition both here and
abroad. 1t was a rather curious CO.
incidence that they resembled each
other in both their vocal virtues and
faults. Their virtues were in the
majority, however, and Of sound
value, while the faults were those
that many artists fall into when
busy with professional work.
The breath control of both artists
was of exceptional perfection. It
permitted them free play for all ar
tistic desires and gave a character
to their interpretations that is often
sacrificed through want of sufficient
breath. With this excellence that
they shared in common, it was re-
grettable that they also shared the
unfortunate habit Of forcing the
voice beyond the point of beauty in
fortissimo passages. 1t seemed un-
necessary that the great lovelinesS
of their voices should suffer in this
way.
Mr.. D'Arkor has a rich tenor that
retains its natural color when sing
ing in French. but, strangely enough,
lapses into white. open tones when
singing italian, although his good
diction shows his familiarity with
that school, For that reason his
French numbers were the best. par
ticularly the air from LIE Roy d'Ys,"
'Tu Lo Sal" he did some splendid
legatO singing in this and in the
sustained Largo" of Handel, while
the soft "Bercsuse" by Gretchani-
He is an artist with true feeling for
poetic content and musical depth,
and he has the personality to project
his ideas over to the audience. His
success was spontaneous and de-
cided, and he was recalled for several
encores, one of which. although said
not to speak the language, he sang
in English with clear enunciation.
The voice OF Crete StueckgOld
has a fine. golden thread running
through it that holds prominence
throughout the entire range when
she sings with restrain. Its tone is
clear and pure and easily adjusted
to moods OF Interpretation. The
harsh quality which took away from
the velvety smoothness in certain
portions was all the more noticeable
for the great contrast it provided.
The delicate singing of "Oh, Had I
Jubel's Lyre" and the "Mainacht" Of
Brahms showed the beauty of tone,
and in the seldom heard "Mignon"
of Hugo Wolf Nine Stueckgold put
dramatic intensity with moving ef-
feet She sang the charming Early
Morning" by Graham Peel, and DO
Not Go. My Love-" by Richard Hage-
man for her English numbers, and
finished with superb rendition of
"Allerseelen" and "Staendchen" Of
Strauss AS a final encore she gave
"Elsa's Traum," from Lohengrin, by
request.
Kurt RuhrSeitZ was at the piano
for Nine. Stueckgold and Sanford
SchlusSel for Mr.. D'Arkor. The
former, particularly, should be COM
