All the broad sweep of this master

The orchestra, larger than last
season and with three women in
its ranks, played a program full of
variety with authority and polish.
The first number was the beautiful
"Ouverture Solennelle," by Glazou-

Maurice Ravel will be remembered

U. 5. Envoy Seeking

Soldiers Are Accused of
Hurting Disinfectont
At Missionary
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHUNGK1NG, Nov. 17.-Ambas-
sador Nelson T. johnson today said
the United States was trying to
settle locally the Wuchang incident
arising from the accusation that
japanese soldiers threw liquid disin-
fectant At DR.. Logan H. Roots,
American missionary physician.
DR.. Roots was reported to have
closed the gates of his mission at
Wuchang, across the Yangtze River
from Hankow, to Japanese seeking
to drive out Chinese refugees who
had been permitted to occupy the
mission. Later information said the
Japanese threw a disinfectant and
not an acid as first reported.
Mr.. johnson said Paul r. Josselyn,
United States consul general at
Hankow, was comforting with the
japanese consul there.
The Embassy received a message
from the American Chamber OF
Commerce at Hankow protesting
Japanese interference with the nor
NAL pursuits of American business
men. The message also was cabled
to the United States Chamber OF
Commerce.
Chinese announced they had recap
tured Taierhchwang and Yihsien in
Southern Shantung Province, North
eastern China, which is within Japa-
nese lines and has not been a major
war front since spring.
The Chinese won their biggest
victory of the war by taking Taierh-
chwang last April. They lost 1t later.
whereupon the japanese swung west
along the Lunghai Railroad to Kwei-
ten and Kaifeng in the first major
offensive directed at Hankow.
Floods halted that drive and the
japanese then made the successful
Yangtze River push.

no important regions are said to

it nevertheless spells the loss to
