THREE CONCERTS IN
FESTIVAL OF MUSIC

Plans are being completed for the
city-wide festival of sacred music by
II prominent church choirs of the
city and the National Symphony Or
chestra to be given under the auspices
and for the benefit of the Columbia
Bible Training School here, April 80
and May l and 2 The first two
concerts will take place in First Con-
gregational Church, with six choirs
singing each night under their own
conductors. The third concert will be
in Constitution Hall April 2, when the
choral program will be augmented
by orchestral numbers conducted by
DR.. Hans Kinder.
Committees headed by outstanding
church women in the city have charge
of the details of this festival of eccles-
iastical music, among them being
Mrs. j. w. Babson. representing the
Baptist churches Mrs. j. R. McCul-
Tough. for the Christian denomination;
Mrs. C. E. Alvord. for the Congrega-
tional churches; Helen Mulliken, rep
resenting the Episcopal churches; Ada
Burrows, for the Methodist Episcopal
churches: Laura B. Townshend, for
the Methodist Church South: Mrs.
Clayton Corliss and Mrs. N. M. Pol

In reviewing the numbers Wnlcn
constitute the choice of this city S
symphony listeners, it is rather in
tereSting to note that the preference
is decidedly for descriptive music.
Music with melody and rhythm pre-
dominated with only one number,
Gluck's overture to "Iphigenia in
Aulus,' touching the classic. The
rest of the program was taken up
with Rimsky- -Korsakov's Suite Sym
phonic," "Sheherazde," excerpts from
Tschaikovsky's "Nutcracker Suite, "
and Ravel's "Bolero" To please those
who love the Strauss waltzeS. his
Wine. Women and Song" were added
after the "Nutcracker Suite"
The orchestra played the entire
program with splendid fire, giving a
particularly dynamic Interpretation
to the "SheheraZde" number. The
introductor duets to each part. Tor
violin and harp, were given with at.
mospheric color by Mr.. Gittelson ana
Miss Meyer, their poetic tone estab-
fishing the unreal mood in which the
composition finds play. The excerpts
from the ..Nutcracker Suite" were
somewhat lacking in the delicate con-
trast which has marked previous per-
formances. the orchestra having given
so much in the sweeping climax OF
the Suit Symphonic" that the fol-
lowing number was bound to suffer.
Back again into the mood OF en-
thusiasm which the announcement OF
the Strauss waltz as encore aroused IN
the audience, DR.. Kinder led the
orchestra through a particularly hit
ing rendition of what might almost
claim to be the favorite number. The
end of the concert brought the much
disputed "Bolero" of Ravel's, the open
ing measures of which were greeted
with applause. The orchestra worked
up to a savage finale which the ever
growing fortissimo of the drums an
ticipated and which brought an ata-
vistic response from the listeners. Or.
Kinder was recalled time and again,
the audience seeking in this manner
to express their appreciation OF MS
sincere and continuous toll to improve
the quality Of work of the organlza-
ton intrusted to him so that it might
rank with the best.
During the intermission another

All of which goes to prove that
wisdom isn't such a bad thing. The
reason We mention this is because
not only wisdom, but Miss Wilson is
responsible for a large measure of the
success OF a new film. mo Greater
Glory" which will have its world
premiere at the Metropolitan this
Friday.
We have always had some kind Of
admiration for Miss Wilson-possibly
because in the good old silent days
she became almost a habit-and few
films dared appear with her trade
mark. Miss Wilson seemed to start
the films, and the fact that she is
still around might indicate that she
is as old as Methuselah. Such, how
ever is not the case. A personal trip
to Cocoanut Grove in Hollywood one
blistering eve last Summer in COM
pany with Miss Wilson proved to
us, in fact, that she is quite the
contrary She is better looking by
far off the screen, younger looking
and younger acting, good sport, a
swell dancer. and as we remember,
about as tall as Gene Raymond, with
whom at one time she was dancing.
(Mr. Raymond is very short, SO don't
let that worry youo
OF late Miss Wilson'S pictures have
not been numerous. Because she has
what is known as nice face" she
has been given the go-by by many
producers, most of whom prefer the
tempestuouS type-girls with Joan
Crawford's eyes or Jean Harlow S
walk. Miss Wilson knows this very
we'll herself. and she talked to us at
some length about the horror OF
having nice face"
When you go to see mo Greater
Glory" you will find that not only has
Miss Wilson nice face. but that in
playing the role of young mother
she looks younger than she did when
she used to play 'old" young girls.
Further than that by her work in this
1T isn't large role, but it's very
good one-She indicates that she is
not ready yet to throw up the sponge.
The film may not give her an extra
ordinarily juicy send-off, but at least
it reveals that pleasant Lois Wilson
quality which many, many people
swear by. Does she not. however, put
on little too much war paint? It's
amazing to us the way these ladies
get thicker and thicker with their
grease-paint these days even when
they are playing semi-middle- aged
roles. Last week, for instance. Mana
Bryant, at the Belasco, although built
to be the mother of those three grown
young men. had a makeup on that
Mary Pickford would have used when
she was 16. After all, when you are
meant to be gentle little woman
working in your husbands tailor shop
(this is Miss Wilson, you wouldn t
have the time to plaster yourself up
with rouge. Are we mistaken, or can
it be that nice Miss Wilson is trying
to do away with that mice" face?

said that Mala is better Eskimo

All we can say about Miss Sothern
is that We can't help liking her-and
that we are afraid we shall go right
on feeling that way until she does
! something radical in a new film. AS
to the Mala-Lederer debate. we sug-
gested that Mala was better Eskimo
only because he is an Eskimo and be-
cause it seemed right to give a young
man a break who has never done any
! professional acting before. Mr.. Led
erer is very smooth actor and did
all he could with his Eskimo fellow.

Pupils of Drama School
In a Bit of Shakespeare

S A school of dramatic arts
n grows out of its infancy, the
"A particular phase of the drama
4 \ in which it is most outStand-
ing becomes more and more
apparent. The previous performances
of its students and their splendid
presentation of The Comedy of
Errors at the National Theater last
night make it quite evident that the
forte of the Clifford Brooke Academy
OF Stage Training is Shakespeare.
There are excellent reasons for this
being so. The first of which is un-
doubtedly Maurice Greet. who as an
instructor has brought to the school
the result of many years of Shake
spearean training under his uncle. Sir
Ben Greet. Not the least of other
reasons would be the enthusiasm and
ability of the academys students for
the plays of the Bard of the Avon.
AS in other performances of the
still new temple of dramatic arts,
when top honors were won by LAS
You Like 1t" and The Merchant of
Venice" so it was last night with the
farce of the twin brothers and their
twin servants, THE Comedy of
Errors" In quite professional pres
entation of this lesser-krown of the
Shakespeare comedies, the students
succeeded in getting over every iota of
the fun and the dramatic.
Four other scenes which were pre-
sented offered the young actors op-
portunities to display their abilities
and training. but fell short of the
standard of the Shakespeare comedy.
The best of these was Sir James M.
Barrie's one-act mystery, Shall We
Join the Ladies'" which leaves its
solution to your own imagination. Ed
ward Dickens playing host to 13 men
and women with the hope of un-
masking the murderer of his brother;

character without having a word to
say, turned in nice bits of acting in

NAVAL FLEET STEP
NEAR TO EXPANSION

Continued from mage one)
for the reopening of the Great
Lakes naval training station.
State department officials last
night declined to comment on the
huge naval expansion program. 1t
was believed by some to be asso-
ciated with the unrest in the Far
East where reports have indicated
Japan would demand parity with
Great Britain and the United
States when the treaties are re-
opened next year. There has been,
in addition. some speculation that
if this parity was denied, Japan
would oppose extension of the
London treaty.
Observers also pointed out last
night that the naval expansion
program would give American Of
ficials an important weapon for
use in bargaining with other pow
ers in naval disarmament confer
ences. Wilson's bill would give
President Roosevelt the power to
order what new construction he
feels necessary and also to end
building in the event of an agree
ment by the major world powers
to reduce their naval ornaments.
Admiral William H. STANDBY,
chief of naval operations, in a
vigorous address last night before
the ninth womer's patriotic con-
ference on national defense de-
manded a "full treaty strength
navy to meet the unforeseen
emergency which always arises"
He said American naval defenses
are inadequate.
owe must build up our navy to
London and Washington treaty
strength; we must provide a sys-
tematic building program of re-
placements; we must provide ade-
quate personnel for properly man
ming the ships and we must con-
tinue conscientious training" Ad-
miral Standby said.

FINAL DEFEAT

contest, so l withdrew and wish
them luck"
Victorious and jubilant old reg
ular Democrats, whose city adm
inistration has weathered the
storms here for IA years, claim
ed that Long was beaten "be-
cause he reviled President Roose-
welt and brought shame upon
Louisiana"
The old regulars had piled up
safe leads for every city office,
which they already control. They
planned to proceed with their
campaign "to drive Huey Long
out of Louisiana politics"
Continued hostilities between
Longs state machine and the
conquering city forces was in
prospect. The old regulars con-
troll several seats in the state
legislature, and they are expect
ed to harrass the Long-controlled
administration when the legisla-
ture cOnvenes in May.
Longs defeat in the city broke
the backbone of his support. The
city polled almost 100, 900 votes,
more than one-third of the en-
tire states voting strength.
Thousands of jobs and millions
of dollars a year in patronage
fall as spoils to the city rulers.
Political observers listed three
causes for the decline and fall
of the Huey Long political en-
pire. They were:
l. Loss of federal patronage
through his antagonism of the
administration in Washington.
2. A series of senate invest
cations of the election of Sena-
tor Jorn H. Overton, a Long
picked candidate. The investiga-
ton disclosed glaring abuses Of
the voting machinery.
3. The celebrated IS IN d s
point Mushroom incident" at
Long Island which sent the King
fish home with a SCARED brow
and laid him open to ridicule by
political enemies. The dignity
that Senator Long lost in that
incident was blamed for the rot
ten eggs and stink bombs that
were hurled at him during pub
lie speeches in the state, and for
the effigy hangings and burnings
to which he was later subjected.
