Burle Marx, one Of the best
known interpreters Of south
American music, will appear again
as guest conductor tonight at 8
o'clock at the Potomac Watergate
with the National Symphony Or
chestra. Mr.. Marx will feature
several South American works and
Harrison Christian, baritone, will
be the soloist for the occasion.
The program for the tenth
Sunset Symphony" concert to-
night follows: Overture to "Eury.
anthe," (Weber; symphony
No. S." (Beethoven; suite In
fantil," castro, Argentina
"Bebe s'Endort," Oswald, Bra.
ziD; La Grande Paque Russo"
(Rimsky-Korsakow); "Eri Tu,"
from 1.-THE Masked Ball." (VerdD
and Prologue from II Pagliacci,"
(Leoncavallo) sung by Mr.. Chris
tan; Brazilian Suite" (Mignone,
BRAZIL; Overture to die Fielder
mauS," (Strauss).
Harrison Christian, who is.a ma
tive of Virginia, combines a char
acteristic Southern personality
with a fine baritone voice which
brought. him great acclaim when
he made his debut in Carnegie
Hall, New York city. He has ap-
peared in Europe more than a
100 times in major operate roles.
Ominous, Mysterious
Themes are shown above from
the third movement of Beethoven
Symphony, No. s." which will be
the large work in the first part of
the program selected by Mr.. Marx.
The first furtive theme shown Is
played from the depths Of the
lowest strings of the cellcs and
BASES. It is an ominous ana :Ecys-
terious utterance. Immediately the
higher strings reply in the phrase
of the second theme shown.
After a short pause, the horns
proclaim the grave warning in the
rhythm of the four note Fate
theme which was introduced in
the first movements soon the
whole orchestra is involved in the
defiant power of this assertion.
The argument is continued using
these themes without any answer.
With all the contradictions and
bitterness of life crowding around,
the only answer is to find escape
in laughter. The most dignified
section of the orchestra, the
BASES, give vent to the grotesque
and laughable dance introducing
the third theme shown above.
Led by the hysterical BASES, the
other sections of the orchestra
are drawn into the expression OF
laughter.
Laughter gives way to fear
when the horns give a reminder
of the Fate theme; the depres-
sion mood continues: suddenly
there is a transitional passage
which breaks the restraint and
gives a great shout Of triumph.
The fourth movement continues
the joy that at times becomes al
most delerious. Though there are
faint reminders of the Fate
theme, frantic rejoicing soon dis
pels the bitter memory.
Perhaps the composer wished
to remind one that fate is the
combination of all the divergent
forces of life AID the product of
our own acts; and that we Gre
ate for ourselves our own heaven
and hell.

Arnett, Friend
or NI1Uy IUoL,
Died Same Day

Dick Arnett was a close friend
of Wiley Post, whom death over
took on a barren Alaskan tundra
a few minutes before it met Dick
and his bride on the craggy sides
Of Laramie Peak.
On the occasion of Mr.. Posts
last visit to indianapolis, after he
was forced down at Lafayette on
an attempted trans-continental
flight, he spent several hours
visiting with Mr.. Arnett and
other friends in Dicks apart
ment.
Last Friday morning, The In
dianapolis Times called the Cen
trail Aeronautical Corp. 70 ask
Mr. Arnett for further details of
that visit. An employee, who an
Swered the telephone, said Mr.
Arnett was out of the city. but
would return in a few days.
At that moment Dick was lying
dead on Laramie Peak.

DEATH TAKEN
FOR RIDE OVER
CITY BY ARNETT
Stock Company Star Once
Went Up in Plane
With Dick.
BY WALTER ID. HICKMAN
Times Stsf Writer

Death did not take a holiday for
Dick Arnett in the skies this time.
But death did take a holiday for
years and particularly late one aft
ernoon over indianapolis when Dick
took Death" for a ride in the
clouds.
That time Death" did not act
but was interviewed by this writer
as Dick piloted his plane way up
in the clouds.
That was the time when Donald
Woods, star of the Arthur Casey
Stock Company at English's, was
rehearsing his role of Death" in
Death Takes a Holiday"
A witness to this strange inter-
view with Death" besides Dick
Arnett was Ted Nicholas, who was
then representative of the stock
company
Mr. Woods was dressed as
Death" and his face was made
up in CHASTITY color. This was the
actors first airplane ride and
Death" was a little nervous, but
Dick wasn't and often joined in the
conversation.
When Death" became a little
more accustomed to the skies, Ar
nett said he was going to take
Death" way up in the clouds.
AS the plane gained altitude, Dick
turned to Death" and said; How
do you like it?"
We all knew that Dick was flying
blind, but his instruments told him
many things that we couldn't see.
Death" answered by asking
question: Suppose that another
plane should crash into us, because
We can't see a thing"
Then it would just happen" said
Arnett, but it will not happen
now"
1t didn't happen then and Arnett
brought Death" safely back TO
earth.
But perhaps Fate remembered.
for real Death finally has brought
this really great young pilot down to
his last landing.

MILNE RANSOM NOT PAID.
J. Edgar Hoover Says Several Kidnap
Clues Are Being Traced.

No ransom was paid for the return
Of Caleb Milne, 4th. kidnapped New
York youth, who was released at
Doylestown, Pa, early today, it was
announced this morning by J. Edgar
Hoover, director Of the Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation.
Hoover said his agents are investi-
eating several important clues in an
effort to apprehend the kidnapers.
Experts in the F. B. I. technical
laboratory here are conducting micro
Scopic examinations Of three ransom
notes purported to be the handiwork
Of the young mans captors, who
sought to confound handwriting au-
thorities by clipping words from news
papers and pasting them on brown
paper to form the communication.
The investigation director withheld
ofhcial details of the negotiations
which preceded the release of the kid
napers victim on road near Doyles-
town.
Hoover's denial that ransom money
was paid was in contradiction of re-
ports that representatives OF the Milne
family held a rendezvous with the kid
napers last night. It was considered
possible the kidnapers were duped
with a fake ransom bundle.
Hoover was to confer later today with
Attorney General Cummings and it
was expected the latter might discuss
the case at his press conference.
Hoover has been directing the in
veStigation of Mines disappearance
by remote control from his ONCE in
the Department of Justice Building.
He has been in frequent telephone
consultation with Rhea Whitley, agent
in charge of the New York City field
office of the F. B. L, and with George
Harvey, agent in charge Of the Phila-
delphia office. Although the kidnap-
ing occurred in New York City, the
ransom demands were made to the
youths grandfather in Philadelphia.

WASTE PAPER FIRE
IN HOUSE OFFICE
Blaze Is Second in Federal Build
ing in Week-Guards Pre-
vent Damage.

The second Federal Government
building fire in a week occurred today
when several bales of waste paper
burst into flames in a basement room
at the House Office Building.
A box alarm brought half a dozen
pieces of apparatus to the scene, but
their services we're not needed, guards
at the building having extinguished
the blaze within few minutes after
it was discovered.
Origin of the fire was not aScertained
Immediately. The room in which the
blaze started has freproof walls and
doors and does not contain any furni-
ture or equipment. 1t is used solely to
assemble and bale waste paper, which
is taken from the building daily.
Smoke filtered through lower floors,
but the air had been cleared when en-
ployeS arrived for work at 9 o'clock. an
hour after the fire started.
Aside from blackened cement and
several inches of water in the base
ment there was no damage, it was said

Allen Backs Suggestion.
A number of controllers of business
houses had proposed recently to the
board that it should not require en-
ployers to make detailed monthly re-
ports, on number of hours worked,
wages, name and address and other
information as to each worker held
eligible under the act. This plan was
fostered by Commissioner Allen, who
objected to the consequent necessity
of maintaining a massive file on Dis
trict workers.
At the November 27 meeting it was
reported the board was "favorably i'm
pressed with the suggestion that the
pay roll reports be divided into two
classes. One was to have been for
the regular employees on which only
summary statements would be re-
quired and the other was for casual
or temporary employees on which full
details would be required to be re-
ported monthly. The compromise
adopted by the board broke the re-
ports into two classes, those dealing
with employers having more than
eight employees and those having eight
or less.

Hidden down in the Government
brief in the rice millers' case before
the Supreme Court is the unadvertised
pronouncement, signed by Attorney
General Cummings. The brief de-
clares that processing taxes are
usually either passed on to the
ultimate consumer or back to the
producer" And a particular study
of the rice processing tax, it says,
showed that the rice tax had been
"in part taken out of the producer
and in part passed on to the con-
sumer."
In other words, Cummings per-
dict is that the farmers themselves
and the city consumers are paying
for the farm program.
Other New Deal authorities have
been asserting that the rich packing
and food companies footed the bill.

denied this:
Search had shifted to New York
earlier. A cottage in the CatSkills,
near Woodstock, was scrutinized after
policewere told Of report that lights
were seen in the vacant house.
Meantime the Milne place. Scott
land, was deserted. save for a few
servants and a Oman. Caleb J.
Milne, jr, the grandfather, went to
his downtown Philadelphia Office for
the first time since the boy was re-
ported missing.
Milne disappeared after leaving a
note addressed to his brother Frederic
saying he was going TO see his grand
father In Philadelphia.
He said he had received telephone
call from a "Dr. Green Of Oracle
Square" Investigation failed to dis
close such a person.
Frederic reported his brothers dis
appearance Sunday after receiving a
note made up of words clipped from
newspapers, pasted on a sheet of yell

held in the country and indicated de-
mands for ransom would be made.
