city makes one realize. Still, in the
end, the music represents that mix
ture of good spirits. of heartlness
which is characteristically London ,
THE second movement brings one
mood of Bloomsbury, of twl-
light in November, of something
ghostlike. The rap OF policeman's
stick is heard. and it breaks this mood.
We hear an old musician play the fid-
die in front of pub" and there is
tragedy in this music. In the distance
We hear the cry: Sweet lavender"
1t comes nearer, and dies away again.
The gloom deepenS, aCcentuating the
melancholy. Towards the end We
hear once more the old musician, still
playing his pathetic little tune.
The third movement, called "Scher-
70 Nocturne." is a Coster-jig in the
slumS on Saturday night We seem
to hear the distant laughter Of the
crowd, but also every now and then,
what sounds like cries OF suffering.
Suddenly conCertine breaks out above
the rest and We hear a few bars of a
hurdy-gurdy, softened by the distance
Suddenly the music changes, and one
feels the mood of the Thames silent
mysterious, touched with tragedy
Fog seems to come down, making
slumland and It's noises seem remote.
Then the picture fades into silence
The last movement deals with the
crueller aspects Of London. the Lon
don Of the unemployed and unfortu-
nate. The very opening bars denote
tragedy and We soon hear a marchllke
theme, the march Of those who are
crushed, of the army of the poor and
the hungry We hear again the music
OF the first movement. but there are
sharp dlSsonances this time 1t Is
London seen through the eyes Of those
who suffer. The music ends abruptly.
After short silence We hear Big
Ben once more, and the symphony
ends as it began, with the River
Thames, silently, the keeper of secrets,
shrouded in mystery.
THIS music is English-as English
as London itself, and it speaks a
language which only an Englishman
and great talent. near-genius, like
Vaughan Williams can speak.
The second half of the program will
consist first Of two excerpts from Got
terdammerung the lovely song Of
the Rhine daughters, and the music to
the death of the hero of Wagners great
trilogy. probably the most impressive
funeral music ever written.
Then We will end on a gayer note,
with the "Capriccio Espagnol," BY
Rimsky-Korsakov. music of the most
brilliant hue, with solo passages OF
gypsylike character for different in

Shanghai, Oct. 1.-(AP)-Sharp con-
demnation of Japanese bombing of
Hankow and the Hankow-Canton rail
way on September Is came today from
Rear Admiral Harry Yarnell, COM

fleet.
A Japanese spokesman had said the
Japanese navy was informed by u. S.
Ambassador Nelson johnson that all
Americans and other foreigners had
been evacuated from Hankow and
surrounding territory by noon of Sep
TENDER 26. This Admiral Yarnell flat
ly denied, saying Ambassador Johnson
issued no such information, but, in
stead, told the Japanese that foreign
ers would be evacuated from Han
kow and the territory nearby after
September 26.
There are in the Yangtze valley
several thousand foreigners, 1000 of
whom are Americans" Yarnell said.
MANY of these persons will wish to
leave China at various times and it
is imperative that a safe route to

Meanwhile, the Chinese defenders of

The Chinese told of surrounding
and annihiliating 500 Japanese SOL

A Japanese army spokesman said
Japanese casualties in the last five
