popular in Ohio as a skunk at q
clambake; he continued. He pointed
out that In Ohio there had never
been elected Governor who was
a Catholic, intimating that religious
prejudice still prevails in the State,
particularly in the rural districts.
That, he said, would render Mr..
Farley unavailable.
Attorney General jackson, so far
as Ohio is concerned, is an un-
known, this Democrat insisted. Mr..
McNutt, while former Governor Of
neighboring Indiana, was not partic-
ularly we'll liked by Ohio Demo-
Gratis.
Only Hull Rated Acceptable.
The only presidential possibility
to whom this Democratic leader
gave favorable rating was Secre-
tary Hull. Still another Democrat,
however, insisted that the Negro
voters would not take to Mr.. Hull
because he, like Mr.. Garner, is
from the South. He acknowledged
that in Tennessee the Negroes are
allowed to vote in Democratic pri-
maries. But" he said, ut would
take more than six months to edu-
cate the colored voters of Ohio to
differentiate between a candidate
who comes from Tennessee and a
candidate from another State in the
South"
The supporters of Mr.. McNutt
profess themselves well satisfied
with the results of the Wisconsin
primary. At least one delegate at
large to the Democratic National
Convention, chosen last Tuesday by
the voters, is member of the Paul
v. tt-for-President Committee
Of Wisconsin. They have several
other McNutt followers among the
district delegates who were chosen.
All of these delegates are pledged
to vote in the first instance for Mr..
Roosevelt. If Mr.. Roosevelt does
not run-then the McNuttites will
Immediately swing to Mr.. McNutt
and be in a position to influence
other Wisconsin delegates to the
same.

Organ Music
Festival
Closes
Robert Ruckman,
Jean Appel Draw
Overflow Crowd
BY ELENA DE SAYN.

The festival of organ music held
at the Washington Chapel of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints, under the auspices of
the District of Columbia Chapter of
American Guild of Organists, closed
auspiciously last night with recital
by two talented organists: Robert
Ruckman of the Epworth Methodist
Church and Jean Slater Appel of
the Western Presbyterian Church.
AS it was the object of this festival
to give an opportunity to hear as
many compositions by j. S. bach as
possible, the organization succeeded
in presenting II of these out of a
total of 40 works performed by nine
Washington organists within the
last five days, Last night the con-
cert began with Mr.. Ruckman's s
masterful execution of Bach's
"Fugue in G Minor" closing with
the "Passacalia and Fugue in C
Minor" played by Miss Appel, whose
strength and ways of handling the
organ equal those of her masculine
colleagues. She further gave poetic
significance to Brahms chorale
preludes 10 How a Rose Fer
Blooming" and Deck Thyself My
Soul With Gladness." No less ap-
pealing were the chorale preludes by
Roger Praise to the Lord" written
IN Bachs style; Jesus My Saviour"
and Bridegroom of the Soul" lofty
and devotional in character. Miss
Appel's playing, as well as that of
Mr.. Ruckman, is noted for its phras-
ing and fine legato.
The latter had an opportunity to
show his good taste in the use of
different registers in the two move
ments from Widor's Second SYM
phony," "Pastorale" and "Andante"
and also in his brilliant execution
of the finale from Vierne's First
Symphony" There was something
jubilant and festive in his figura-
tions and dynamics of this partic-
ular work, in which many voices
were involved. He drew to the
fullest upon the resources of the
instrument he was playing upon,
giving his auditors a satisfying
amount of volume. After all, it is
volume that one appreciates in the
organ, the most majestic instru-
ment of any, and it is the sparing
use Of its power that one misses
most. Those who were fortunate
to hear the old organ upon which
Bach himself used to perform may
still have the vivid remembrance
Of the stimulating vibrancy and
richness of it's tone. Mr.. Ruckman's
manner of playing suggested the
unlimited possibilities of the instru-
ment in many ways.
The chapel was crowded beyond
its seating capacity, necessitating
the opening of the partition which
connects with the social hall for
the overflow.

to the barter Constantine Brown.
system as definite economic policy.
1t is compelled to sell some of its
manufactured goods in exchange
for what have you" for otherwise
Germany would remain the domi-
nant power in Eastern Europe and
eventually in all other parts of the
world which cannot get foreign ex-
change
The operations of "Enco" the
English Commercial Corp-are ex-
planned by officials in London not
as barter but as bookkeeping ar
rangement between Great Britain
and her customers. The prices paid
by the purchasers are world market
prices. But because of the present
extraordinary situation there will
be no settlement in gold.
Government in Business.
This is acceptable reasoning. But
what worries Americans who believe
the barter system shakes the founda-
tions of their economic life is the
fact that all the business between
British manufacturers and exporters
and their clients is exclusively under
government control. That means
that the government has gone into
business and its agents abroad are
nothing but statesmen and collectors.
1t is true that unless Britain takes
a page from Herr Hitler's economic
policies she cannot compete with the
Germans in Southeastern Europe.
The Balkan states do not need
gold in large quantities unless they
want to purchase goods from nations
which do not barter They have to
choose between paying gold or it's
equivalent to the nations which do
business on that basis or exchanging
goods with Italy and Germany,
which accept anything and offer al
most everything the Balkans need.
Bigger Offers Made.
When the needs of these countries
are satisfied as far as marketable
goods are concerned the totalitarians
offer more important things. For
instance they offer to build a new
network of railroads or to introduce
electricity in villages and small
towns. Such operations would cost
country like Yugoslavia, for instance,
hundreds of millions OF dollars
untold billions in local currency. But
since the Germans are willing to do
this work in exchange for raw ma
terials. which are plentiful all over
the Balkans, they get these con-
| tracts.
Britain is now endeavoring to
checkmate the Germans economic
progress in that section of Europe by
offering the same thing on probably
better terms.

Orderliness is the first law of the universe

from one of our thousands of satisfied
patrons:
NYour men work with such
confdence-with no waste of
time. No wonder your estimates
are always reasonable"
That is true of The Eberly Plan both
in theory and practice. We proceed
about every job-be it simple repairing,
renovizing or undermining in an
orderly way. Our men work with
confidence because they work with
understanding. There is no waste of
time or material. The work is executed
expertly, and within the limit of the
definite estimate which has been
furnished-true to The Eberly Slogan
"Only ONE modest profit, and ONE

Whatever your problem in connection
