Homer S. Cummings.
THE sudden death of Senator Tho

THE sudden death of Senator Thomas
i ]. Walsh, who had been named as
Attorney General In the new
administrator, on the eve Of the inau-
euration. constituted heavy blow to
President Roosevelt. Walsh possessed
the admiration and confidence OF the
people as did few other men in public
life and his appointment had won the
highest praise.
Mr.. Roosevelt was obliged to act
uuicklv to have q full cabinet when he
took Office and his choice fell on a man
who not only had been his own loyal
supporter but who had held high
place in Democratic politics for more
than a quarter of a century. Homer S:
Cummings of Connecticut had served
for Is years as q member OF the Demo-
cratic National Committee. He had
been mentioned for President in the
1920 convention, which finally nomi-
mated Gov Cox Of Ohio. He was uni
versaIly acknowledged as a man OF
ability, tact, experience, keen howl-
edge Of organization mechanism. and
with highly attractive personality.
Mr.. Cummings has been a practicing
lawyer since his graduation from yale
in 1893. He has had extensive civil
practice, has been familiar figure In
State and Federal Courts. and has often
appeared before the United States
Supreme Court. He has been three
times rnayor Of his home city Of Stam-
ford. AZ the San Francisco conven-
tion he made the KEYNOTE speech In
nraise of the ideals of woodrow Wilson.
The new Attorney General is ma,
tive of Chicago, but comes from old
New England stock Had Senator Walsh

had decided to appoint Mr.. Cummings

statesman. Like his fellow cabinet Of
ficer, Wallace, Dem is credited with
practical accomplishments in the line
Of actually doing things, rather than
in administration. He is co-inventor
of two widely used mining processes
which have done much for the indus
try. He rose from the inconspicuous
place Of bookkeeper for mining COM
pany to his present position.
A native Of Nebraska, Dern was q
famous foot ball player in his days at
the State university back in the early
90s Cutting short his college career
when his parents moved from Nebraska
to Utah. the future Governor OF that
mountain State studied the technical
and engineering aspects Of the mining
industry. He will be able to meet the
military engineers on much Of their
own ground. and his appointment as
War Secretary may have much more
significance than merely the selection
Of a competent and politically avail.
able man. The engineering branch OF
the Army promises to have special
significance In the Roosevelt scheme
of things.
In Mr.. Dern's record there Is no
reference to military experience. His
qualifications are those of the engineer,
and his foremost interests have been
in engineering problems. As Governor
of Utah he took an active part in the
interstate controversy involving the
construction of the Boulder Canyon
Dam and was one Of the organizers OF
the seven States conference on the
Colorado river.
As a business man, he rose to promi-
nence in the gold mining industry and
has also engaged at various times IN
banking, dairying and canning.

ROME.-A sharply worded manifesto
against modern music, issued and
signed by 10 of the most noted Italian
composers, has thrown musical Italy
into an uproar.
The signers are Ottorino Respighi,
Giuseppe Mule, Ildebrando Pizzetti,
Riccardo Zandonai. Alberto Gasco,
Alceo Toni, Ricardo Pick k-Mangiagalli.
Guido Guerrini. Genparo Napoli and
Guido Zuffenato. The Metropolitan
Opera House. New York; the New York
Philharmonic Orchestra and other
American orchestras and opera COM
panies have drawn largely on these
composers for their programs.
I'VE are against this art which can
not have and does not have any human
content and desires to be merely me-

puzzle" declare the manifestants.
I'm the musical world reigns the
biblical confusion Of Babel. For 20
years the most diverse and disparate
tendencies have been Jumped together
In q continual chaotic revolution. We
are still among tendencies and 'ex-
periments' and no one knows to what
definite objects they will lead.
"The public, distracted by the clamor
of so many wonderful claims, 1nt1m-
idated by so many profound and wise
programs Of esthetic reform, no longer
knows what voice to listen to nor what
road to follow. It is necessary that
they be released from the state Of in
tellectual subjection which paralyzes
their free emotional impulses"
The 10 direct their appeal. they say.
particularly to young musicians.
"A sense Of rebellion to the centuries
old canons and fundamentals Of the art
of music has filtered into the spirit Of
young musicians. Schools cannot give
them and do not give them any stand
ard to go by. There are no masters to
whom they will bow, especially those
modern masters who triumph on all
the stages of the world.
"It Is necessary to free young people
from the error In which they are nv-
ing, to give them Q sense Of artistic
discipline, although at the same time
freely permitting every legitimate lyrt-
cal expausion."

wealthy after the World War.
In 1917 he presided over a board In
the Treasury Department which drafted
regulations for operating the war tax
laws. Most Of these later were incor-
porated in the revenue act Of 1917. I'M
mediately after the Armistice he urged
enactment of a sinking fund law for
handling the war debt.
Throughout his career his chief IN
terests have been with financial iegisia-
ton. To his colleagues his command
of involved statistics is remarkable.
Anything pertaining to economics chal-
lenges his attention.
Sidelights as to his attitude on world
issues, such as he will confront as Sec
retary Of State, are contained in pas
sages from recent statements:
This mad pursuit of economic ma
tionalism or aloofness or seclusion-
each nation striving to live unto Itself
has proved utterly empty and disas-
trous."
THE practice Of the half insane
policy Of economic isolation during the
past 10 years by America and the world
under American leadership is the larg-
est single underlying cause of the pres
ent American and world panic"
economic disarmament and military
disarmament are patiently the two most
vital and outstanding factors in busi-
ness"
THE absurd attempt of every nation
to live unto itself and aloof from others
has resulted in a breakdown Of inter-
national credit, finance, exchange and
trade"
