JaScha Heifetz, the celebrated
violinist who recently declared
that there was entirely too much
discussion about music, will be
heard in recital at Constitution
Hall next Sunday afternoon at 4
o'clock.
He may have been prompted in
making this statement because he
has little time for discussion of
anything, being engaged in one of
the most extensive tours Of his
Well-traveled career. Most of his
leisure time is engaged in making
transcriptions of Bax, Albeniz,
Halffter, Castelnuovo-Tedesco and
others. Some of these will be pre-
sented in his Washington concert
along with the Suite" by Vivaldi-
Busch; Sonata No. 7, in C
Minor" by Beethoven, and the
Concerto for Violin," by Glazoun-
off.
In the midst of his nineteenth
professional season in America,
Mr.. Heifetz has undertaken the
tremendous feat of giving SIS per-
formances in four and one-half
months, covering 21 States of the
Union and Canada.
The energetic Mr.. Heifetz finds
time between his extended tour
and his transcribing to do the eX-
ecutive work in behalf of the
American Guild of Musical Artists,
an organization he predicts will
eventually protect American mu-
sicians as Equity safeguards Amer
ican actors. Vacation of last year
gave Mr.. Heifetz leisure in which
to add the accordion to his musi-
cal accomplishments, to win the
Commodore Cup in the Pacific
Coast Yacht races, and to COM
plete more extended tranScriptions.

RELIEF BURDEN
SHOWS DROP,
SAYS HOPKINS

The relief burden which reached
its peak two years ago this month,
then declined only to mount again
last February, has showed def.
mite retreat this winter, WPA Ad'
ministrator Harry L. Hopkins said
today.
Although an increase in the
work relief rolls is under way this
month the seasonal increase both
in work and State direct relief
has not been as great this winter
as during any winter since PreSi'
dent Roosevelt took office, accord
ing to Hopkins. He said:
"The relief curve has not
gone up this winter as it usually
does. While I think February
will show an increase, both sea-
sOnal and because Of the added
work in the flood area, it will
not be as great rs usual"
Assailing the advocacy by the
American Society of Social Work.
ers for Federal grants to States
for relief and work relief. Hopkins
declared that direct relief was "the
most vicious form of aid that
could be conceived" He asserted
"They (the Society Of Social
Workers. would like to see the
whole work relief program wiped
out. They would like to 20 back
to the pantry-snOOper system,
the basket Of groceries program.
This whole organization repre-
sents 1,5OO people who draw
their salaries for doing social
work. I know. I once was preSi-
dent of the outfit, and some Of
my best friends are members Of
it,"
Hopkins said that mo one
knows" what the additional cost of
the flood rehabilitation program
in the Ohio and Mississippi river
valleys will be. He said: Z.

buy a lot of materials and
equipment-trucks, materials for

The great floods through the
Ohio and Mississippi River valleys
should serve today to make the
nation conscious of the danger OF
pollution to public health.
During and after every major
flood like this the public becomes
aware that greatest flood dangers
are not to be found in the force
of flowing water but in the filth it
carries to contaminate drinking
water and infest buildings and
homes.
But the nation might be startled
to know that the filth now being
carried in flood waters represents
only a small portion of the gallons
Of pollution that are dumped into
State and national waterways an
nually without much Of q public
protest.
Fortunately for the health Of the
nation, treatment plants have been
installed to remove the danger OF
common diseases such as typhoid
in our larger cities, but dangerous
pollutants sometimes remain in
the waters to affect them in un-
known ways. Health authorities
in Philadelphia recently have been
studying the relation of cancer
cases to the extent of pollution in
the Delaware River, and elsewhere
polluted water is under suspicion
as the cause of diseases found
most prevalent in certain COM
munitieS.
The greatest danger is to those
persons residing in rural areas or
outlying communities where no
system Of water publication has
been established for their protec-
ton. In many cases communl-
ties are financially unable to in
stall adequate publication plants.
Still others may face the prob
lem of pollutants which can be
eliminated only by expert study
of the problem and application
of the remedy.
Communities which depend
upon their neighbors upstream to
burn or destroy their garbage in
stead of dumping it in the stream
to be passed along to them, are
often the same communities that
dump their garbage into streams
for the neighbcrS below. But for
tunately, in the interest of pub
lie health, progress has been
made in eliminating pollution
emanating from towns and cities
where there is money to install
proper equipment" This leaves
as the major offenders those
towns without financial means
and numerous industries that con-
tribute to the pollution of the
stream with chemical and mineral
wastes.
