Fatal Accidents
In Homes Higher

NEW YORK, April 22.-Twice
as many accidental deaths were
reported in homes last year as in
industrial establishments, it was
asserted yesterday by R. F. Cava-
11augh, superintendent of the en-.
gineering department of the Fl.
deity and Casualty Company of
New York, who said thousands of
lives might have been saved and
hundreds of thousands of injuries
avoided if hazards that would not
be tolerated in any factory were
removed from homes.

Threats yesterday to the tune
shown above. The fact that our
country is arising out of the
depths of depression doubtless
gave added power and zest to this
mighty chorus.
The AIRS Musica Choir of New
York City, under the direction Of
Vance Hayes, sang for the Easter
sunrise service at Walter Reed
Hospital yesterday morning and
appeared in a sacred concert at
the Emory M. E. Church at 4
o'clock in the afternoon.
While using the same numbers
in the afternoon that were heard
in the morning, the choir added
Spanish Easter Carol Of the
Lambs" Russian Easter Priests
Blessing" (Kopolyoff), and This
Glad Easter Day" Norwegian
folksong) to the program given at
Emory Church.
This choir, composed Of 20
young nonprofessional singers,
sang most of the numbers a ca
pella with only four accompanied
by the organ. The balance Of the
choir is fine with a good heavy
bass section, and a careful atten-
ton and response to the conduc-
tors signals.
The choir gave especially good
readings of 20 Morn Of Beauty"
the hymn theme used in Sibelius'
tone poem "Finlandia," and "Alle-
lula! Christ is Risen" (Kopolyoff) =,
both of which were sung a cap
pella.
There are several choirs in vari-
GUS sections of New York City
that belong to the AIRS MuSica, and
one in Richmond, Va. The object
of the organization is to bring to-
gether young people who love to
sing, and feel that they are out
of place or are not wanted in
their own church choirs. The
choir appearing here is made up
of young people from seven diff
ferent denominations.
It is the desire of those respon-
sible for the New York organiza-
ton to help to establish chapters
of the AIRS Musica in other cities.
A chapter of the AIRS Musica is
being considered here in Washing
ton with the probability of an
early announcement of plans.
A two-piano recital will be given
this evening at $3.50 o'clock at the
Roosevelt Hotel by Lena Kash
Holther and Tamara Dmitriev.

This gives a better idea Of what
the neighbors of Communism
think of it than anything else
could. They have had their ex-
periences. Each had a civil war
with their own Reds. Each had
to fight off Russia. Zach had a
period of Red terror and after
wards they had grandstand seats
to watch the further operation
of the terror inside Russia. A
highly-placed Latvian said:
eve know better than any
one in the world what Com
munism would mean for us II
it came to the Battles.
people in other countries
can play with the idea and re-
gard the theoretical advantages
of Communism, and bespeak
it's benefits and discuss whether
it would bring increased pro-
ductiOn and a more equitable
distribution of wealth, and save
us from capitalist crises and
so on. But we know one thing
it would certainly mean for us
all. That is death. So, If neces-
sary we will die fighting it. And
that is a source of strength"
There are parlor pinks in
nearly every country in the
world. They used to call them
"Klub-Sessel Spartacisten" in pre-
Hitler Germany. That means
armchair Communists. In the
Battles everybody who can afford
an armchair belongs to the
counter Communist defense CORPS.
