Organ Given
Debut in
Concert
Gernani Shows
Artistic Gift
In Recital.
By ALICE EXERSMAN.

THE organ recital by Fernando
Germani at the Rialto Theater
last evening introduced to the
n local public, simultaneously, an
artist of superior gifts and the new
Hammond electric organ used for the
first time here in large hall as a
concert instrument When the organ
was first brought out several recitals
were given on it in local churches, but
last evenings concert provided an op-
portunity for it to be heard by larger
audience. Mr.. Germani is now touring
this country as exponent of the electric
organ, for which he abandoned the
customary type of instrument through
which he had already established his
artistic fame.
The performance last evening must
be viewed from several angles-Mr.
Germani's presentation of his pro-
gram, the possibilities of the new in
strument and the combination of the
two AS an organist Mr.. Germani is
perhaps the most outstanding to be
heard here in some time. His deftness
and brilliancy of execution lis matched
by vivid artistic sense which is much
more colorful and alive than that of
other outstanding artists on the in
strument. In phrasing he has eXtraor-
dlnary smoothness of line, while his
dynamics are more sharply accentu-
ated and at the same time with more
graduationS in effects
X
His program consisted of the Vivaldi
Concerto in A Minor" three chorales
by Bach, Daquin's Noel X" Bachs
"Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" the
toccata from Widor's Fifth Sym
phony" and anonymous Aria" Bossis
"Gigue," Torres Spanish Song"
Brahms Lullaby" Debussy's La File
aux Cheveux de Lin" and an "Etude
de Concert" by Marani, dedicated to
Mr.. Germani. In each of the varied
moods which this program represented
the artist was in complete accord,
while his style was equally adaptable
to the larger demands of Bach. Vivaldi
and Widor or to the more delicate re-
quirenents of numbers like the Aria"
the Clique" or La File aux Cheveux
de Lin"
The amplification used yesterday was
too great to allow of proper ap-
praisal of the organ. The mechanical
side of the instrument came greatly
into the foreground and in fortissimo
passages the tone was harsh However,
the easy response of tone is real
improvement over the pipe organ and
it lends itself with suavity to the
slightest change in volume. One
misses somewhat the greater freedom
and the apparent limitlessness of the
older instrument. for there is sense
of restriction in the tonal quality. In
softer moments the tone was ex-
tremely lovely. but grew to shrillness
In crescendo although the lower reg
ister retained its sorority at all times.
The easy manipulation of this elec-
trical organ is its greatest asset Mr..
German is expert in this respect and
yesterday ranged through its entire
gamut of effects with no visible effort.
One could almost imagine that for
certain phases of his artistry the Ham,
mond organ was more responsive than

War on Children

Ten months ago $500 children were sent from the Basque country to England to be sheltered and fed until conditions were better in their home land or until their scattered families could be found. The Basque Children's Committee since then has sent back 1900 of these unfort- unate youngsters. They have rejoined their parents, though not many of them are in their former homes.
 There are still 2,00O homesick Basque children who will remain in England in- definitely because their parents either are in prison are refugees "in the worst bombed areas of Spain," or cannot be traced at all. It has been argued by h. surgent symphatizers that all those chil- dren should have been returned as soon as Franco's forces captured Bilbao. The committee answers that such children, on arrival in Spain, "are immediately placed in reformatories for re-education" according to Insurgent ideas. It con- siderS that fate worse than a prolonged stay in England.
 What the children themselves think, probably no one knows. It is their tragedy to suffer from quarrels they did not start and war they cannot under stand, to be torn from their families and made to feel the crushing bangs of terror, loneliness and insecurity. That is war.
