At the close of the con-

Yehudi, determined to get his
autograph, even if it should be-

Atlanta where he next appears.
Yehudi is not the least bit

HIGH TAXES DUE
OBAN HOLDING
COMP AN|ES
international News Service

A far-reaching plan to break
up giant industrial holding com.
panies through high taxation is
under consideration in high New
Deal circles, it was disclosed to-
day.
The program is designed as
the next step after enactment of
a law for dissolution of holding
companies in the utility field by
1910, on which hearings are
slated to open tomorrow by the
House Interstate Commerce Com
mittee.
While Congress is believed by
New Deal lawyers to have power
to break up electric and gas
holding companies because they
are public utilities, it is admitted
that industrial companies can
not be reached by this method.
Thus, tax which would make
holding companies Improbable
has been selected as the device
to force a reform which would
affect the entire industry of the
nation.
Congress already has estab-
lished presidents for use of tax
ing power to control business.
President RooSevelt's admin.
istration today was prepared to
turn its heavy guns tomorrow on
the public utilities holding com.
panies, the goal being to place
them under strict governmental
control and, at the end of five
years, abolish them completely.
The governments hopes are
pinned upon the bill sponsored by
the House Interstate and Foreign
Commerce Committee, whose
chairman, Representative Ray.
burn CD Of Texas, declared in
a radio speech last night that the
holding concerns were conducive
to downright fraud He said:
eve must free our power and
gas companies from the owner
ship and control of holding
companies. The holding COM
pany leads to secrecy, mis-
management and, in some
instances, downright fraud. We
want American business to be
free from . control which is
secret"
Hearings on the bill are to be
started tomorrow by Representa-
tive Rayburn'S committee,

Believes We Are Getting
Closer to God

To the Editor of The Times:
Is the world getting away from
God? Under that headline in
a paper recently there was not
one theory that savored of a
common sense reply. We may
be receding from church, creed
and dogma. And naturally so.
For is not man like all things
in nature, progressive?
Was there ever q mentally
alert. thinking individual that
could be beholden to such a
rigamarole? Getting away from
God when there is a constant
growing Of unity between races
and creeds. a greater response
to the needs of others, the
many donors Of blood when no
compensation can be expected?
Anyone who cannot see that
there is more love, charity and
kindness now than ever before
is blind indeed.
Japan's earthquake fund was
over-subscr1bed. Religion is Of
the heart and soul, but not Of
creeds, dogmas, nor sanctimo-
niouSnesS. Act in harmony
with divine consciousness is act
ing in harmony with the great
oversoul. Call it God, nature
Of whatever you will.

will be a generous response

Yehudi Menuhin, young vir-
tuoso of the violin, yesterday
afternoon in Constitution Hall,
received one of the greatest
ovations ever given an artist in
Washington.
For the first encore, he played
LA Chase" by Kriesler, and
the audience would not let him
go until he had played five
more encores. Even then he
was wiling to play more, but
his father feared Yehudi's
strength would be over.taxed.
Yehudi Menuhin reached the
heart Of his audience with a
beauty Of tone that was ethereal
at times and is seldom equalled.
The opening number Of the
program. the Mozart Concerto
No. 3. was the vehicle he used
to bring wildly to life the
happy atmosphere of court life
Of the composers time.
The Bruch Concerto, Opus 20,
in contrasting mood, was heavier
and played with more breadth
of tone and brilliance Of execu-
ton. :.
In the Prayer from the "Te
Deum," by Handel, his g string
tones were rich and cello-like.
The two Sarasate compositions,
Caprice Basque" and the
Spanish "Habanera," RECALLED the
audience with a sweep of
rhythm.
THE Flight of the Bundle
Bee." by RimSky- KorSakov, was
greeted with such enthusiasm
that he repeated the number.
"The Maiden with Flaxen Hair"
by Debussy. and 1.-THE Dance of
the Goblins," by Bazzini. brought
the program to a climatic close.
The first encore, LA Chase"
by Cartier Kreisler, consists of
double stops throughout as
shown in the above theme.
This composition is one of the
Kreisler works that is under

Thoughts on President
Roosevelt

To the Editor Of The Times:
The thought has suddenly
struck me that President RooSe-
welt may not be the man who
will rescue this country from
the depression.
Although seemingly possess
ing liberal views, President
Roosevelt has lately been get
ting off on the wrong foot.
I have heard it said that he
has sold out to big business,
and his recent attitude toward
organized labor seems to bear
this out.
AS to the social security
legislation, our congressman
are acting as if this was a
new idea. I understand that
most of the social program has
long been in practice in foreign
countries.
Of course, if President Roose,
velt's program is the only alter.
native to Facism or Socialism,
we should support it.

Cab DriUer Has
Many Thoughts

To the Editor of The Times:
Much has been said about
traffic conditions in the Dis
trict of Columbia. I am a taxi
cab driver and have been here
for seven years. I have driven
IL hours per day for that length
of time on Washington streets
and believe that I know as much
about traffic troubles as any
one person here. I drove in
New York three years and Phila-

streets and a smaller business

or New York quicker than I can
go from Fourteenth and Con.
stitution Ave. to Fourteenth and
Park Rd.
One thing that happened yes
terday at Fourteenth and Con-
stitution Avenue: A man, drunk,
drove his car through a red
light and hit a car with such
force that it broke the other
cars front wheel. The drunken
man got out, argued a
while, and the man with him
got out, changed the wheel for
the woman, gave her an adj
dress and drove the car off.
The drunken man was from Dan.

was cross the bridge and the
woman was out Of luck. I
might add that while this was
going on a policeman was in
the next block putting chalk
marks on wheels, trying to trap
someone for overtime parking.
Here comes a man with a
woman pulling him by the neck

take him home and up five
flights Of stairs to bed and turn

Back to the Greeks
For Beauty

To the Editor Of The Times:
The beauty Of one generation
becomes the eyeSore Of the
next. There have been numer-
GUS statements about the lack
of beauty Of the State, War
and Navy Building, and as
sertions that this structure be-
longs to a bygone era when
architecture followed a rather
overemphasized style.
Less fortunate have been the
new buildings constructed in
the Government triangle. Still
in the building, they have al
ready incurred a storm Of crit
iciSrn as to their appearance.
It seems that our modern
architects would do we'll to take
heed to these criticisms and
formulate their plans on types
Of architecture which have eS-
capped criticism although con-
Structed many centuries ago.

hampered by the lack Of mod
ern machines. built structures
which have received worldwide
appreciation through the years.
