FIRST EASTMAN SAYS RAW DEAL. WAS GIVEN HIM.
Will GO to Syracuse; Tin. kering'' With Stance
 Hurt Hitting Ability
By FRANK MURPHY

tUnhteu EreB1 St9M C0fFeBpOn0onel
 Boston, Jan. l3-(Up)--Icllsworth q. (Babe) Dahlgren of San Fran cisco, rookie first baseman who has been quoted on the Pacific coast ca saying that the Boston Red Sox gave him Q "raw deal by purchas. ing Jimmy Foxx from the Philadel. plia Athletics, is scheduled to open the season with Syracuse in the In- ternAtional league.
 General Manager Eddie Collins of the Red Box was on record today as saying that Dahlgren, who field- cd brilliantly but batted only .28o for the Boston club last season, probably will be farmed out to 6yra- ctise for development and that it was "too bad" If Dahlgren didn't see flt to cooperate. Collins indi- cated that Babe might not be taken to spring training at Sarasota, Fla, but scoffed at the idea that the first bnseman was being penallzed for complaining about his lot.
 Got A Bonus!
 "Dahlgren received much more last year than r" Dceived in the Coast league thc before," said Collins. "Asai of record, we actually paid h. bonus nt the end of the season, We thought his work displayed promise. and we plan to keep Q hold on him. Dahl. grci1 will not lose much by going to Syracuse and he will be subject to recall to us on short notice. It Is m arrangements which VIC consider the best for the Red sox and the best for Dahlgren."
 Tn his reported raw deal" state. ment, Dahlgren was quoted as say. ing that since he had no chance of becoming Q big leaguer in competi- ton with Foxx, the Red Sox should lot him go to some other major league club instead of sending him to the minors. He also was credited with saying he might have batted considerably better lest season If the Red Box hadn't "tinkered' so much with his stance.
 All Set
 Collins said he had conferred with outileldcrs Roger Cramer and Bing Miller. Pitchers Rube Walbcrg and Joe Carcarella, and Coach Herb Pennock In Philadelphia and indi- cated that they had reached verbal agreements as to their 1886 con- tracts.
 Tn North Carolina Collins talked iwth Piedmont league executives re- garding the Red Sox farm team there. Collins indicaetd that the Boston teams franchdise might bc transferred from Charlottoo to Rocky Mount.

FEDERAL FARM
RULE TO Be
SOUGHT
International News Service

Congress will be asked to re-
wise the soil conservation and do
mestic allotment acts to give the
Federal Government control over
agriculture, spokesmen for farm
organizations said today.
While the legislation will not
be directly sponsored by Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wallace or the
Administration, it will not be op-
posed by the Department of Agri-
culture.
State Shift Opposed
Administration of the soil con-
servation act, which was substi-
tuted hastily for the invalidated
agriculture adjustment act, is
scheduled to pass to the States
January /, 1888. Then the Fed
eral Government will make grants
to the States for administration
of the law, and for payments to
farmers complying with the State
soil conservation laws. These are
the provisions of the present act
Congress will be asked to change
so as to retain Federal control.
Farm leaders have been con-
ferring with department officials
for several days and voiced a de-
mand for revival of the AAA crop
production control program.
Congress will be asked to ap-
propriate 500 million dollars to
carry out the conservation act
next year. An appropriation Of
44O million dollars was made for
the program this year. To this,
before the end of the year, will be
added approximately SO million
dollars remaining from the ap-
preparation passed to recompense
farmers who had, at least in part,
complied with the AAA provisions
for this year.
Soil Payments Start
Payments have only begun un-
der the soil conservative program.
A total Of $l,099.757 has been paid
out to 1928 farmers, payments
by States have included:
Iowa, $220,202; Indiana, $46,210;
Wisconsin, $30,53O; Michigan,
$4,510; North Dakota, $21,924;

The Washington times., 1936-11-10

Igor StraVinSky, noted COM
poser-conductor-pianist, in his re-
Gently published autobiography,
makes several statements to the
effect that he believes that music
is by it's very nature powerless to
express anything at all.
He did not specify whether he
referred to his own compositions
or to all music in general. In the
Webster Dictionary definition of
music there is reference that
music is used, "for the expression
of anything possible by this
means"
Stravinsky continues: EXPIRES
sion has never been an inherent
property of music. That is by no
means the purpose of its existence.
If it appears to express something,
this is only an illusion and not d
reality. 1t is simply an attribute
which we have thrust upon it, a
label, a convention. People will
always insist on looking in music
for something that is not there"
This more or less idealiStic point
Of view does not take into account
the attitude of approach to music
that must be made by the masses
with little or no training in music.
Interest in and appreciation Of
music on the part of the masses Is
best brought about in terms of
thought or experience with which
the individual is already familiar.
If, for instance, an individual is
told that musical selection he Is
about to hear for the first time
is a description Of a sunrise, will
not the music mean much more
to him than if no explanation
had been given of the work?
In order to follow out his theory
to its logical conclusion, why
should StravinSky ever have given
q name to any Of his works? A
title is bound to convey some idea
Of what the music is intended to
express. Then too, many there
are who claim that StravinSky'S
greatest works were his ballots
such as "The Fire-Bird," Pc
trouchka," and lie Sacre du
Printemps."
While the first named ballet
might be highly fantastic, yet the
other two are conceived in stark
reality, "of the earth, earthly"
Thus it is quite evident that some
of Stravinsky'S greatest works
were a definite program in mind.
and if the music itself were not
expressive enough, the dramatic
dancing gives them more impreS-
Sive expression.
Can it be possible that in such
statements Stravinsky is repudi-
ating his earlier and most popular
works? Or is it only a verbal ex-
preston made to attract attention
and, if possible make people
think? These statements are in
much the same mood as many Of
his compositions of recent years.
One recalls the statement made by
a member of the audience two
seasons ago when a Stravinsky
string quartet was being aired at
the Library of Congress; the audi
tor thought "StravinSky is merely
thumbing his nose at us"
The question of reading some
thing into a musical composition
that was not intended by the com.
poser is being raised anew with
the presentation here Thursday
at Constitution Hall, when the
Ballet Russo, accompanied by the
National Symphony Orchestra will
give MaSsine'S version of choreo-

UTILITIES CITE
u. 5. TEST AS
BAD FAITH
BY WILLIAM S. NEAL
International News Service

Charges of bad faith" on the
part the Government in its pro
posed test of constitutionality of
the Wheeler-Rayburn utility hold
ing company act-and an en-
phatic denial by Government
spokesmen-sroused widespread
interest in official legal circles to-
day.
The charges were made on the
eve of opening the Governments
So-called comprehensive test of the
act before Federal Judge Julian
Hack in New York tomorrow in
the Electric Bond and Share Com
pany case.
John C. Higgins, Of New York,
counsel for the North American
and American WaterworkS utlll-
ties, started the controversy in
argument before the Supreme
Court when he declared that the
bond and share case is not real
case despite Government claims.
Delay Charged
In fact, he charged, the Gov
ernment's attitude tends to de-
feat and delay a final, decisive
ruling on the far-reaching law by
the Supreme Court.
The argument developed when
Higgins opposed the Govern
ment's effort to persuade the Su-
preme Court to stay the North
American and American Water
Works suits to have the holding
company act declared invalid un-
til a decision is reached in the
bond and share case.
Higgins said:
"The Government Is attempt
ing to limit the bond and share
case not only to the section
dealing with registration OF
utility holding companies, but
it then says that the bond and
share company is eStOpped in
. court of equity from asking
that the law be declared invalid
because it is not registered"
"ThuS, If the case should be
decided upon the last question it
might be two years before de-
cisiOn of the Supreme Court
could be obtained"
Robert H. Jackson, assistant at
torney general, said:
"The Governments position
is that since the SO-called death
sentence provisions apply only
to registered companies, the
bond and share company should
register before questioning the
act in this respect"

GREEN EXPECTS
A. F. |. RIVAL

NEW YORK. Nov. 10 GN.SO.
The American Federation of Labor
and the Committee for Industrial
Organization appeared to be far
ther apart than ever today fol
lowing q statement here by Will
liam Green, head Of the A. F.. OF L.,
in which he charged that John L.
Lewis, leader of the c. I. O., had
deliberate plans" to set up rival
organization to the A. F. OF L.
Green said he based this declara-
ton upon the refusal of Lewis to
meet with him to discuss a for
mula whereby the insurgent
unions led by Lewis might again
be received back in the American
Federation of Labor. Green de-
Clared:
"The next step will be the call
ing of a conference at which an
Independent and rival Organiza-
tiOn, headed by Mr.. Lewis, will
be launched formally"
Green made public a telegram
which he had sent to Lewis. re-
plying to the latter's refusal to
meet with a committee of the
executive council of the A. F. of L.
It read:
Labor and all its friends
throughout the nation will place
their own Interpretation upon
your answer and the refusal of
those associated with you to
meet and confer for the purpose
of trying to settle differences"
Green stated that any union
now under suspension by the
A. F.. of L. could be represented at
the forthcoming Tampa conven-
ton of the federation if it first
withdrew from the Committee for

phony No. f."
This ballet entitled "Chorear-
tium," has aroused a storm Of
criticism among the puriStS, and
a still larger storm Of applause
from the masses who have seen it.
Which only goes to prove the
above contention that the masses
appreciate any artistic or authen-
tic aid that may be offered to
help them understand and appre-
ciate absolute music.
The ballet has neither theme
nor story but is a pictorial inter
probation of the symphony, which
will be played by the orchestra,
DR.. Hans Kinder conducting,
without alteration or abridgment
from the regular Brahms score.
The ballet will simply be a success
sion of living pictures inspired
by the music.
Following the hymn in the
third movement of the Symphony

returns to rollicking dance in
the first theme shown above.
