However, it has always been natures
plan to prepare others to replace those
whose services are terminated, and
particularly is this SO in the musical
held. Such occasions are the mo-
mentS for which many are waiting and
for which they have prepared them
selves through long years of appren-
tlceship. New blood, new ideas and
new energy are ever welcome in spite
of the regret at the passing of the
known and revered.
Perhaps the most startling Of all
these changes is the abandoning of
the leadership of the Philadelphia
Orchestra which Mr. Stokowski an
nounced last week At his last ap-
pearance here, he spoke of the vaca-
tlon he had decided to give himself.
but he left the impression that after
a year of freedom he would return to
his post with the orchestra. It ap-
pears now that his differences with
the management of the orchestra were
great enough to make him sever his
connection completely. While un-
doubtedly the musical world will bene-
fit by his determination to devote him.
self to the study Of the music of East
ern nations, there is great loss in his
dominating personality in present day
music.
1t is comparatively easy to replace a
good conductor these days. but Sto-
koWski Is not alone a fine orchestra
leader. He is leader of new ideas. a
pioneer who knows that beyond the
mountains lies a vast country Of un-
explored riches. His courage, his vision
and his individuality are priceless as
sets that have always been employed
IN splendid endeavor to advance mu-
Sic from every angle.
Not only has ne made known to his
audiences the best Of the modern mu-
sic presented in original fashion. but
ne mas uncovered still finer meaning
In the old masters. Outside of the
Held OF interpreter, he has interested
himself in experiments with electrical
transmission and other scientific
study, all tended to increase the range
of musical expression. He had planned
tour of Russia by the orchestra this
year, desiring to have European audi
ences hear at first hand the organiza-
ton he has so expertly built up rather
than rely on the relayed radio recep-
ton for their opinion. What will be-
come of the orchestra and whether
its individuality will be continued un-
der the new leader, will be intresting
to watch.
During the IS years that Gatti-
Casazza has been at the helm of the
greatest opera company in the world
he has developed and sustained a
reputation for artistry and foresight
edness that will be hard to equal. An
lmpresario of any kind has a difficult
profession, but managing the large
roster of Metropolitan with its ma
tlonal complexities requires a pre-
ponderance of tact, patience and good
Judgment. To an outsider, the daily
life of an opera company might be
an amusing affair, but to the one re-
sponsible for its artistic productions
1t Is an arduous existence. The board
OF directors, In its regretful accept
ance Of his resignation, admitted the
leaders right to an easier life after
so many years Of intensive work.
Mr.. Gatti, more than any director
OF this famous institution, has made
a point of giving American opera and
American artists a fair showing, so

ing to grips with the ream of knot

Retains Old Set-Up
For the present, the board is re-
tanning the facilities of the regional
labor boards organized under the
earlier set-up. These boards are the
first line of defense in maintaining
industrial peace.
Appeals are taken to the national
board which is a court of last resort.
Two of the most serious conflicts
are in the hands of special presiden-
tial boards named by Mr.. Roosevelt.
These are the Pacific Coast Long
shoremen's strike and the steel in
du!sry fight. The longshoremen's
strike presents the most immediate
crisis with general strike threat
ened and several dead in bitter riot
ing.
OF equal portent is a threat of re-
newal of strife at Minneapolis
where two were killed in a truck
ers' strike in May. A mass meeting
for Wednesday has been called to
vote on general strike.
Other problems include truck
farm strike at Bridgeton, N. j.,
where several score persons were in
jured in rioting, a strike of onion
weeders at McGuffey, Ohio, where a

vividly today with the first dis

night from Mecca.
The cars were spotted at West

being station on the Holtville-

Distribution of the water had
been worked out under the direction
of DR.. N. E. Dupont, named last
night by Charles I. Schottland to
take charge of this pnase of relief
work, and also to be director of
feed loans.
Close cooperation by the county

made possible the distribution Of
the water. Information as to where
the cars should be spotted was
supplied by M. j. Dowd, chief en-
gineer of the district, who has been
in close touch with conditions
throughout the rural portions of
the valley. Extra couplings to pro-
vide for quick distribution Of the
water were made in the district
shops at Imperial and others were
obtained from oil companies hay-

The water is being distributed
for drinking and domestic purposes

that some have been unusually

Dowd will advise where addition

be sent tonight for an additional
supply which should reach the

Work in connection with distrib-

Strikers in various parts of sthe
country were regarded SO seriously
here today that President Roosevelt

tion.

The board, headed by Lloyd Gar

able to avert additional violence at
least until President Roosevelt re-
turns from his holiday on the crui-

Old Phineas Tobias Their

Apparently he has been

RE|CHSTAG To
Be CONVENED
Expected To Give Routine APP
proval To Hitler's Suppression
OF Revolt.
BY FREDERICK OECHSNER
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT


BERLIN, July 10. The all
Nazi reichstag was summoned to-
day to meet at 8 p. m. Friday to
give its formal blessing to the acts
of Adolf Hitler IS government In
suppressing the Roehm revolt.
Ten minutes after announce
ment of the summons, German
newspapers were ordered to make
no mention of it. 1t was explained
that the meeting had been sum-
moned as announced, but that the
time might be altered before Fri
day.
The chancellor himself is expect
ed to address the gathering of the
Nazi legislature. and review the
suppression of the storm troop re-
bellion.
It was certain that whatever the
chancellor had to say would be ap-
proved unanimously, by cheers and,
If desired, by vote. There is no
opposition representation.
Indications were the cabinet
spokesman would confine himself to
general terms.
Reorganization of the storm
troop organization into compact,
blindly-loyal force of picked men,
was still in the discussion stage to-
day, and seemed likely to remain
there until Hitler and his aides had
made a thorough study.
There was discussion whether the
session would be made the occas-
ion for the long promised state
ment of killings in reprisal for the
alleged plot of Ernst Roehm and
his fellow troop leaders to over
throw the government.
No Legislation Planned
The decree calling the meeting
made it plain that the reichstag
was expected to do no legislating;
that it was convened with but one
idea-reading of the government IS
statement.
This is the first time the reich
stag has met since January 80, an
niversary of Hitler's accession to
power. The January meeting also
was called only to hear and ap-
prove a government statement.
The meeting, it was believed,
would be held again in the Kroll op-
era house. The reichstag building,
badly damaged by the incendiary
fire of February, 1888, has not
been fully repaired.
1t was expected the government IS
statement, besides giving full back
ground of the revolt, might review
the recent Flensburg congress of
Nazi party leaders and go into for
eign politics.

car driven from under him.
The Jail was not guarded as the
parish does not maintain a night
attendant. Three other Negroes
imprisoned with McCloud were so
badly frightened that one shouted.
Batter down the side of the
building and Wen throw him out
to you."
The mob Immediately went into
action. While it was using the
telephone pole as a ram, District
Attorney Hawthorne arrived and
made a speech

tude. but I'm afraid you'll get in
to trouble he. said.
IF you sympathize with us, -
one of the leaders shouted, "why
don't you take off that straw hat
and take a-hold of this telephone
pole?'
Sheriff Carpenter and two depu-
ties arrived and tried to dissuade
the mob with no success.
