TWONEW MUSICAL
. PROGRAMS ON AIR
Lesser Known Works of
Great Composers to Be
Featured.

r INTEREST among radio listen
ers in the worlds best music will
receive considerable support and
i impetus in two new series of pro-
grams featuring the lesser known
mater works of great composers to be
introduced on N. B. c. October l.
Such celebrated artists and en-
sembles as Michel Piastro, concert
master of the New York Philhar-
monic: SaScha Jacobsen, violinist;
Frank Sheridan, pianist the Gordon
String Quartet and the Musical Art
Quartet. will interpret the notable
compositions in the two new series.
These programs will be identified as
"The Great Composers and the
master Music Hour"
The works to be played will be those
which, because of the unusual COM
binations of instruments employed, or
because their appeal has been princi-
pally to the more advanced music
lover, have seldom been heard on the
air or in the concert hall.
DR.. Walter Damrosch, N. B. c.
musical counsel, said the amazing de-
Velopment of musical culture through
out the country in the past few years
prompted N. B. G. to add the new
programs.
I'VE are convinced" said Dr.
Damrosch, that there is in this
country an extraordinarily large ad-
vanced music loving public to which
these broadcasts four times a week
will be real musical treats. In addi-
ton. most teachers of music and
their pupils, numbering thousands,
will benefit by the mastery inter-
pretations Of these compositions by
the celebrated artists who will appear
in these notable programs"

Beginning with a caucus behind
locked doors, at which the pur-
pose of the program was ex-
planned by Swing, administration
floor leader, the senate moved to-
ward complete acceptance of the
plan. 1t passed the bond issue
swiftly. Sen. Chris N. Jesper-
son, Atascadero, was the only one
who questioned the measure. He
asked why the present relief ad-
ministration was not continued.
The senate also concurred in an
assembly resolution memorializing
congress to take cognizance of
the national need for old age PEN
sions. Then it referred the other
bills to committee and began con-
sidering them today.
Indications were that the session,
instead of being completed to-
night, as the administration had
hoped, would drag through the

The transaction was made under
the direction of John j. Raskob,

"Mr. RaSkob must be given most
of the credit for the good job that
was done on our General Motors

the committee.
General Motors stock is quoted
today at about 20 or 80. Thus, the

In short" Sinclair said, we con
tinue to press the basic theory OF
Epic-a complete segregation OF the
employed and the unemployed, re
moving the unemployed from the
precariouS position of dependence
upon the employed, and removing
the burden from the employed"
Regarding the current special ses-
sion of the legislature. widely view
ed as a shrewd move by Governor
Frank F. Merriam, Republican no
minee in the coming elections, TO
forestall a possible Epic swing" in
November, Sinclair said:
The Merriam plan to float a $24,-
100000 bond issue for unemploy-
ment relief cannot be taken serious
ly at all. 1t is just move to plunge
the state that much deeper into
debt, taking no cognizance of the
essential problem presented by un-
employment and designed in no way
to ameliorate it,
In the Washington office of ia
cob Baker, assistant to Harry K.
Hopkins, federal emergency relief
administrator, Sinclair said he
found that the Epic plan is work
ing perfectly in Ohio"
Mr. Baker had some shoes and
an excellent coat which had been
made by unemployed workers in
Ohio, and a whole mail-order house
catalogue of other things they have
produced and have for barter
among themselves. OF course, it is
pure Epic, and is being carried on
with federal funds and with feder-
al sanction"
Sinclair said he planned to rest
a day or two at his Pasadena home,
then go to work"

SINCLAIR RETURNS CONFIDENT OF
SUCCESS AT NOVEMBER ELECTION

en- hold in key centers of the coun-
try. and its test in the California
election will be watched closely by
officials, observers and electorate Of
every other state.
Continuing to speak tactfully
and sparingly of his interview with
President Roosevelt, Sinclair said,
however, that Secretary IckeS, May
or La Guardia of New York, Father
Charles Coughlin of Detroit, Sam
uel Untermyer and other notableS
had registered varying degrees of
interest in the Epic plan.
Secretary Ickes told him, Sinclair
said. that he would gladly recon

Valley water project in terms of
construction through the Epic plan,
which would diverge from ordinary
practice in the following particu-
lars:
/. State labor" as applied to di-
rection of the project, would be used,
instead of letting construction to
contractors, thereby obtaining
brains and time for which the state
is already paying"
2. Some $4,000 unemployed would
be sent to the valleys-California'S
rich and populouS Sacramento and
San Joaquin-to provide the bulk of
the manpower, the labor to be paid
in work certificates or some such
form of non-currency remuneration
exchangeable for food, lodging and

TALK
ENJOYED At
ROTARY CLUB

Introducing the first of a series
of hobby talks by club men,
bers, Rotarians thoroughly enjoyed
an interesting talk on sirds at the
regular meeting this noon, given
by Professor j. L. House, principal
of Central Union.
Principal House, confessing that
birds, their lives and their habits,
have always been of intense inter-
est to him, produced a number OF
mounted specimens from his COL
lection and explained numerous
and varied facts about them.
He stated there are approximate
ly 10000 known species Of birds in
the world, many of which are
found in the United States and
that over 300 different varieties are
found in California alone.
His talk was closely followed and
presaged other interesting talks on
''hobbies - by club members.
The Rotary charge was given to
three new members by Oscar Haun,
in most effective manner. Those
receiving the charge were L. l..
Odle, John Tyler and Russell Sher-
wood.

ing account of fishing experience

/ epic" supporters, proposing a con-
stitutional amendment giving the
state the right of eminent do
main to take possession of farms
and factories. The cost would be
paid from the s24,O0O 900 bond issue
and the properties would be devoted
to unemployment relief.
Sponsors of the bill were assem-
blymen Jones, Charles A. Hatch,
Charles w Dempster, James J.
Boyle. John D. Mccarthy, Fred
erick M. Roberts and Austin L.
TurnouX, all of Los Angeles.
This plan was similar to SIM
clair's sweeping proposal, and en-
tirely beyond the realm of Mer-
riam's ideas for unemployment
aid.
1t was introduced, however, more
as a gesture and was expected to
be defeated
Amendments Ready
Jones also was prepared to offer
two amendments to the Swing bond
issue bill One would provide the
same proposal included in the epic
type bill, and the other would set
aside $10,000,000 of the $24,000000
for creation of self-help enter
prises. Stiff opposition from ad-
ministration supporters would de-
feat both amendments, politicians
believed.
Aside from assembly complaints,
the Swing bill met a serious OBJ
stacle in the form of letter to
Merriam from Vernon D. North
rup. state emergency relief ad-
ministration. Northrup's letter, read
to the assembly, said that the bill
could not accomplish its purposes
because it went further than pro-
viding unemployment relief and
was ambiguous in stating how the
$24,000,0O0 would be administered.
Northrup indicated the bill should
be changed to specify unemploy-
ment relief alone; designate the
period ending June 80, 1895, as the
time during which the money
must be spent; and provide for an
independent state agency to ad-
minister the funds. Otherwise, the
state may not receive S50,000,000
expected from the federal govern
ment.
The piii-a constitutional amend
ment-as planned by the senate,
mentioned unemployment and
human needs; set no time for
expenditure of the funds; and pro-
posed that the relief administra-
tor should be chief of division
of the state department of social
welfare, to be advised by special
administration of nine members.

Their amendment, striking these
sections, was adopted.
While the assembly wrangled over
nearly every measure introduced,

in sympathy with Merriam's eight
point program, appeared to be
well on its way toward adjourn

said to be ready to move the troops
to Manhattan from where buses
would take them to Rhode Island.
Approximately 1,500 would be

Tentative orders provide for over

would move in suddenly.
