administration was formally in

STUDIES
PROBLEMS

Reorganization of the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, Department
of Labor, now being studied by
a committee of statisticians, will
deal largely with the material
to be covered by statistical re-
search, it was indicated at the
department today.
The committee has been at
work for some weeks, and it's
findings may not be announced
for several months. However, it
is understood that the members
of the committee are satisfied as
to the technical ability of the
staff and the accuracy of the
figures now being gathered.
The chief problem of reor-
ganization, it was indicated, is
to decide what material should
be collected and what scope the
bureau should take for its activi-
ties.
One criticism that has been
Vi 44S COS
though it has not come from the
committee of inquiry, is that it's
cost of living figures are based on
living standards of two decades
ago, rather than on living stand
ards today.
1t is pointed out that the man
ner of living has been greatly
changed by the popularization of
the automobile, the motion pic
ture, the radio, modern refrigera-
ton and other modern appliances.
The figures of the bureau, on the
other hand, were devised a num-
ber of years ago, and while they
were suitably weighted for living
standards at that time, it is felt
in many quarters that changes
should be made now.
The committee is expected to
suggest a number of names for
the post of commissioner of labor

.MASSED CHO|RS
IN CONCERT

For those Washingtonians who
have dreamed long Of an annual
choral festival here, it would
seem, after hearing various local
choruses, that the material is at
hand and in condition.
The pleasant possibilities Of
what such a festival could pro-
duce were manifest last night in
the excellent concert at the Will
lard Hotel by seven leading Dis
trict choirs for the benefit of the
Columbia Bible Training School.
In the finale, these 300 singers
presented "The Heavens Are Tell
ing" from Haydn's Creation" ?"
There is only one word for it
thrilling. Singing with more en-
thusiasm than is usual among
church groups, the huge chorus
was skillful1y led by William
Braithwaite and a moving, joyous
Interpretation of this great num-
ber resulted.
Preceding this, each choir had
given a group of anthems. If it
had been a contest, the judges
would have faced a difficult as
signment. The best choral tech
nique was displayed by the 10
voice choir from Mt. Vernon
Place Methodist, led by R. Dean
Shure.
For sheer beauty Of ensemble
tone, we nominate Justin Lawrie's
Foundry Methodist group. Others
participating were National City
Christian, Mr.. Braithwaite, di-
rector; National Baptist Memoir
ial, George Ross, director; Church
of the Epiphany, Adolf Torovsky,
director; Hamline Methodist, John
Marville, director; First Congre-
gational, Ruby Stahl, director.
