Bruno Walter and the
Philharmonic

DLINDFOLD the average concert
ID goer who pirates so discerningly
about the strong and weak points
of various conductors, and he could
not tell apart Toscanini and the
third assistant kapellmeister OF
second-rate German opera house,
provided they both have a fine in
strument in the form of trained
orchestra to play upon. Even ex-
perienced musicians often have to
rely upon known tricks of cele-
brated leaders in order to distinguish
between them.
The job of orchestral conductor
is exceedingly complex The au-
dience sees and hears only a small
part of it. Some men rehearse best.
some are best as personnel-manager,
program-maker, trustee -manipula-
tor publicity-man, etc. But when
all this is tended to there remains
the final test-can he conduct the
audience? Over half the CITATIONS
of conductors are directed to those
behind thein-their audience. All
orchestral players know tAis and
most Of them pay no attention to
the pantomine But the audience
is innocent of it and falls regularly
for two things: astute publicity and
prima donna baton-waving
Bruno Walter is one of the most
admired conductors. Not least on
account of his treatment by the
Nazi culture-hounds. If any readers
of the Daily Worker would like to
engage in so precise and hair-split-
ting a pastime as the improvement
of their critique Of the conducting
of orchestras, an instructive example
can be found in the case Of Walters
work with the Philharmonic.
Here is a body of men who can
so perfectly react to the peculiar
capacities of their leader that al
most opposite styles of performance
of one and the same work can be
! given. For instance. under Tosca-
mini such precision of execution can
be obtained that every note in a
passage, even at terrifying speeds,
can be distinctly heard, although a
/ dozen or two men are Synchronized
in it. 1t is mechanism that almost
rivals the machine. But with Wal
ter, who belongs to a school revolt
ing from an excess of precisionism,
the grand sweep is the thing-the
individual notes are lost in it.
Another detail is the ATTACK.
When a number of players are to
begin a passage one can, under
Toscsnini, hear any dozen or the
whole hundred enter as one man
Soft or loud, it has an edge, it cuts
the air, impacts the ear. But I'M
Ger Walter. one can hear the instru-
ments enter separately or, if there
are many playing at once, one hears
the sound emerge from space-one
cannot tell precisely when. The
edges are blurred, the music blows
like wind upon the listener 1t is
impressionism as over against for
( malism.
What we are looking for is a con-
ductor who has as varied potential
tiles as the orchestra and who car
use each style in its place, mixing
or alternating them.

CHAPTER III.
The Life of Lenin

THE first Russian Revolution of 1905
brought all the questions of
theory and tactics to the test of
practice, and laid bare the future
lines of 1917. Here was demonstrated
the power Of the mass struggle of
the workers and peasants as the
force shaking tsarism and bringing
it to its knees; the role of the class
conscious workers and their party
organization as the leader in the
fight; and the hesitating and finally
counter-revolutionary role of the
liberal bourgeoisie passing over at
the critical moment to compromise
| with tsariSm.
A flood of light was thrown on
the role of the strike movement.
developing to the political general
strike, and to the armed rising; this
new experience of the forms and
methods OF struggle aroused pas
sionate controversy and new mill
tant awakening throughout interna-
tional social-democracy.
The foremost theorists Of interna-
tional social-democracy, such as
Kautsky, who then still fought for
the principles of revolutionary Marx
ism, recognized at that time the
leadership of the international So
cialist revolution was passing to the
Russian proletariat. The first So
VETS, or Councils of Workers Dele
gates, the future organs of the work
ers' power, grew up in the struggle
of 1905 in Petersburg, Moscow and
other centers.
THE opposing tactics of Bolshevism
and Menshevism were further
demonstrated in the 1905 Revolution.
The Mensheviks saw the task of the
workers struggle to exert pressure
on and drive forward the bourgeoi-
sic as the leadership of the revolu-
ton. But the Bolsheviks sought to
press forward the independent lead
ing role of the proletariat, developed
the political character of the strike
movement, worked out a new agra
rian program to draw the peasants
struggle for land into the general
political struggle by the organiza-
ton of peasants committees to d.
vide the land, and carried forward
the mass struggle to the highest
point in the December armed rising
in Moscow, which was initiated
under the auS~ices of the Moscow
Soviet and led by the Bolsheyiks.

In the World
of Music
StOkOUSki and His Trustees
BY CARL SANDS
By del

BY CARL SANDS
THE long -heralded break between
1 Stokowski and the Trustees of
the Philadelphia Orchestra burst
into the news few weeks ago with
the publication of his letter Of
resignation" There can be no
doubt that, with the exception of
a very small though disproportion-
ately influential group of extreme
conservatives, the noted conductor
has the public on his side. Hence
the rumors of his return, under
conditions dictated by him, in 1896.
1t is all most polite and diplomatic;
but out of it has emerged the first
serious public discussion of the
basic social nature of the func-
tions of a symphony orchestra in
this country.
Stokowski is typical bourgeois
rebel. He has careened from New
Thoughtism and Yoga to electrical
circuits and the Bell Telephone
Laboratories with a catholicity of
taste and a broadness of view unique
in an orchestral conductor though
familiar enough among liberal liter
airy critics and newspaper column
nists. His pushing of leftist ten
denotes in bourgeois art music is
given as one of the most serious
reasons for the antagonism Of his
administration committee. HIS
playing of The International at
concerts in Philadelphia, coupled
with his desire to take his orches-
ira to the Soviet Union, is undoubt-
edly another. The severity of the
depression period underlies it all.
Up to now, boards Of trustees and
Millionaire patrons have ruled opera
and symphony organizations. Even
the Ladies Auxiliaries" have some
times decided the fates of noted
composers, conductors and perform
ers. The decision of so popular a
favorite as StokowSki to seek the
approval Of the masses as against
that of the few self appointed
wealthy patrons of his old commit
tee, should be supported vigorously
by all class-conscious workers who
are interested in music. He has a
far bigger fight on his hands when
he bucks up in earnest with the
R.C.A., as he will undoubtedly do
if his plans for radio work progress
according to his outline. He will &c
far if he has the support of the
masses Of music-lovers.

REVOLUTIONIZING POWER
PRODUCTION, TRANSMISSION

A revolution in the production
and transmission of electricity has
been in the making for some years.
Like other revolutions in technique
it is held up by vested interests
whose investments it threatens.
In the new method developed by
DR.. R. j. Van de GRAF of the Mas
sachusetts Institute of Technology,
electricity is generated by enormous
disks spinning in vacuum, and is
"piped" for long distances along
vacuum surrounded rods. T hi S
would enable high voltages to be
transmitted from hydro-electric sta
tions, or stations built in the heart
of the oil and coal fields, to in
dustrial plants and cities without
the losses in current or expense in
volved with present methods. The
latter are limited to range OF $50
miles. because of high costs. The
new method will transmit currents
over practically unlimited distances,
What stands in the way of this
revolution in electrical technology
are lack of funds to develop the new
scheme to the stage of industrial
application. And even then there
would be no widespread applica-
ton, since the capital investments
of the power trust are involved.
AN ELECTRIC SIEVE
Professor L. G. Hector of the Uni
versity of Buffalo uses an electrical
sieve" to strain out crooners'
voices from radio programs, and
then employs the carrier radio
waves to determine the electric
strength of the air. He blocks out
all the voices and musical parts OF
program with electric filters.
What is left is the silent accurate
carrier wave. With these waves Pro-
lessor Hector measures the dielec-
trio dnsulating) strength of air and
other substances to ten times the
former accuracy.

THE leadership of Lenin in the

no less instructive than the early
years of building the party or the

ton. During these years, Bolshe-
vism, in place of being wiped out
by the reaction, became deeply
rooted in the working class and
established itself as the leader of
the majority Of the industrial work
ers. The leader of Menshevism, T.
Dan, had later TO write of this
period in the official party history
Of Menshevism:
whilst the Bolshevik section of
the party transformed itself into
battle phalanx, held together by
iron discipline and cohesive guild
ing resolution, the ranks of the
Menshevik section were ever more
seriously disorganized by dissen-

and mass work we're revealed when

the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks was
now completed into two parties, with

deputies in the Duma, from non

NOTE ON BACTERIAL
WARFARE

With war preparations being
pushed by the government, more
precautions are being taken to keep
potential war secrets from becoming
generally known. Last fall there
was great hullabaloo when a
chemist inadvertently let slip that
he had discovered a new and deadly
poison gas. Such mistakes are be-
ing avoided, but now and then a
scientific paper discloses discovery
which has important military uses.
At the recent meeting of the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science DR.. Alden F.
Roe of the George Washington
School of Medicine reported that
he had found way of keeping
dried stocks of bacteria alive. He
described the technique of drying
out bacterial types and how it can
be applied to species of bacteria
that thrive only when they are not
exposed to air.
The bacteria are grown in suit
able media until there is consid-
cradle quantity. Then they are con-
centrated with a centrifuge. The
concentrated suspension of bacte-
ria is transferred to strips of filter
paper, and dried under vacuum.
The strips are transferred into ster-
lie glass tubes, the air exhausted
and the tubes sealed until the bac-
terra are needed for experimental
purposes. Bacteria of several types
have been kept alive and ready
to resume growth after year in
the vacuum-tube storage. The APP
plication of this method to bacilli
bombs makes the latter a deadly
weapon in the next war.
