POLICE PREPARING ]
FOR UNIONS DRIVE
Drive for Organization of
New York Dock Men
Due Tomorrow.
By the Associated Press.

BY the ASSOCIATED Press.
NEW YORK, July 27.-Informed
confidentially that q long-expected
drive to unionize the city's dock work.
ers was set to begin Monday, police
headquarters began making elaborate
arrangements tonight to cover the
water front.
Orders were dispatched to all
borough commanders to have 1000
detectives ready to augment the reg
ular forces in event Of trouble.
Grapevine" reports reaching Chief
Inspector John j. Seery were to the
effect that the International Brother
hood of Transfers and Chauffeurs
was planning to open concerted
campaign against non-union truck
drivers.
Neither officials nor attorneys Of
the brotherhood could be reached for
comment.
A serious effort to organize the
water front has been predicted in
labor circles, however, ever since the
longshoremen and teamsters' unions
emerged victorious in a recent injunc-
ton suit.
Beginning Monday. police have
learned, members of the brotherhood
will take advantage Of their court
victory by refusing to permit non
union workers to load or operate
trucks engaged in hauling freight TO
the docks.
An injunction restraining them
from interfering with The free move
ment of freight was issued by Supreme
Court Justice Burt j. Humphrey last
January, but was quashed on appeal
two weeks ago.
Union leaders had threatened 10
call a general strike that would
paralyze the entire harbor if the in
junction were upheld. To show their
strength, they did call a one-day
protest walkout of 10000 truckmen.
In reversing the injunction order,
the appellate division held that the
dispute was one for Federal agency
to settle inasmuch as Il involved inter-
state commerce.

continually increased taxes, and, OF
course, the issue of the Constitution.
President Unworried.
A brief talk with the President on
these subjects would convince one
that he is not worried over the pros
poets. He realizes that there is a
growing criticism, and that he has
lost some of his popularity. But he
has a lot of confidence in his own
ability to talk to the people.
The President has planned to make
his first major political speech August
% in Milwaukee, Wis, before the con-
vention of Young Democrats. OF
course much depends now on the ad-
journment Of Congress as to whether
he can keep this engagement. II ne
is forced to cancel it, he will simply
plan making the same speech some
where else. He has a number of in.
vitationS, and he can be quite par
ticular in his choice. His plan Is
then to make his second major speech
during the ceremonies incident to the
formal dedication of Boulder Dam.
Finally, he will have the setting of
the San Diego Exposition for his last
major speech. From San Diego, the
President will proceed leisurly back to
Washington aboard a naval vessel,
thereby affording himself rest and re-
taxation before resuming his admin
istration of the Government business.

times when we will need the advice
and suggestions of someone outside

Because the publicity unit deals
directly with the newspapers, radio
stations and theaters, it seemed
essentially advisable that We have the
heads of these organizations available
for consultation, and it was with this
purpose in mind that the advisory
board was formed. While we do not
expect to call on this board for many
meetings, we believe that the advice
of its membership on our general

able to the cause Of the Community

Directed War Campaign.
His browning work during the war
was as a director of the "Smileage
Campaign" which raised $4,000, 900
to finance recreational and leisure
time activities for the troops in train
ing camps. To put this campaign
across, one of DR.. Pearson's cohorts
composed the famous song, which
goes:
pack up your troubles In your old
kit bag
"And smile, smile, smile"
The handsome Quaker, who gained
his first fame at Swarthmore College,
outside Philadelphia, where he taught,
tried to make the Virgin Islands con-

tional guiding and directed recrea-
ton, but encountered stiff opposition
from those who had been in the
islands for years.
Despite the logs thrown in his way,
however, Pearson did succeed in
widely broadening the educational
facilities of the possession. He could
never induce the inhabitants to play
base ball, but he brought them con-
certs, drama and dances instead.

Gov. Nice said his talk with Mr..

he was unable to get pickers."
He estimated that 80 carloads Of a

He said the usual scale was 2 and
az cents a bushel, and that 1--WE
paid 3 cents a bushel until three
days ago, when we offered cents
a bushel, but even that did not get
people to work"

istrator, said an investigation in that
area disclosed that the most a worker
could earn In a day was rs cents.

progressive spirit that has made the
National Symphony possible. He be-
moaned the fact that Washington does
not have a major conservatory.
THAT the great Capital of mighty
nation such as America should be de-
prived Of a conservatory seems pity.
There are many excellent schools in
all other parts Of the country. There
is really no necessity for music stu
dents to go to foreign countries to
study music, because we have right
here in the United States some of the
best schools and some Of the best
teachers to be found anywhere"

matt, who is in Washington to conduct
the National Symphony Orchestra in

quaintance with Mrs. Capped, whose
professional name is Helen Ware, be-
gan while Mrs. Capped was a music
student in Budapest. and Harmati was
concertmaster at 18, of the Budapest
Orchestra.
There is little in the physical make
up of Sander Harmati to suggest the
composer and conductor. He Is Of
short, athletic build and seems to take
greater interest in discussing politics
and human traits than the intricacies
Of operate music.
Greatest Music in Future.
Harmati, who has composed several
symphonies, which he will play during
his two concerts here, believes the
great American symphony is yet to be
written, but that when it is written
will be the greatest ever because 1t will
express the ruggedness of a great peo-
pie. He believes the jazz age Is slowly
passing, but that its influence will be
felt in all parts of the world for gen.
erations to come.
1T is only just and proper that
American music should take leadership
in the world, for America is fast be-
coming the leader in world affairs" he
said. Already American jazz music
has swept to every civilized country
and its influence is being felt"
Harnati marves at the accomplish
ments of the jazz orchestras. We
who have stood by operate and classi-
cal music have stood with mouth
agape to discover that so many things
could be accomplished with musical
instruments" he said. In the JAZZ
orchestra the violinist must also be
able to drop his violin and pick up a
saxophone, q trumpet or q flute and
play 1t. And they play them all
equally we'll"
