American Traditions

The retiring state commander of
the New Hampshire American Le-
gion declared few days ago that
the legion should try to counteract
what he called Indifference to the
American tradition and the ideals
of our country.
The people of the old Revolu-
tionary days which we have just
celebrated, constantly thought,
talked and wrote about these ira
ditions and ideals. Wherever they
gathered, whether at the village
store, or at the popular assemblies,
or in their homes, they talked
about these traditions. These ideals
comprised such beliefs as liberty,
self government, the right of citi-
zens to obtain justice and live in
peace.
What do our people mostly talk
about when they gather now? The
men talk about sports, work, and
business, and the women folks
about their homes and friends. Up
to the time of the present war any
way, these national ideals had be-
come less conspicuous in the public
mind. This does not mean that
these national interests are con-
sidered unimportant. Our people
have simply felt that these Ameri-
can principles have become so Sc
curely established that it lis not
necessary to talk about them.
Now great powers have arisen
which threaten these national in
terests. They refuse to let the
world live in peace. They deny
that the nations shall regulate
their affairs by sincere negotia-
tion and peaceful treaties, but they
say that the nation that has the
greatest armed power is to rule
the world.
Such ideas go contrary to every
principle that has been cherished
by Americans. Our people are
realizing the nature of this threat,
and rising in anger to demand that
our traditions and ideals shall be
preserved, and that nations that
cherish the same ideas shall be
permitted to live in peace and quiet
and that the world shall be govern
ed by justice, not by bombs and

The Whizz-Bang Motor
Tour

Countless American families are
now roaming around in their auto
mobiles, having gorgeous time as
they see more or less distant states
and cities. The soft purr of the
car and its power to travel around
the earth if necessary, has given
the average family a far better
chance to see the world.
How far does the touring party
really see the world? If they are
going lickety split every minute,
intent mostly on how many miles
they can cover in a day, their OBJ
servations of the world will be su-
perfcial. They may get police tags
in several cities, and possibly see
the inside of court room, but of
intelligent observation of the COM
munities and people along which
they pass, they don't get very far.
People who travel 80 miles an
hour on their vacation trip return
with considerably clearer memo
ries of their journeyings than
those who make double that figure.
Also they are received more cor
daily along the way.

School To lob

Life sometimes runs along in &
rut with little change. It is like
driving an automobile through lev
ell prairie or desert land. when each
mile seems like the one you left
behind. Then you may run into
rough country, with sharp curves
and steep hills. so that frequently
you can't see 100 yards ahead.
This is like the change that comes
in life, as people have to adjust
themselves to unfamiliar circum-
stances and solve new problems.
One of these marked changes
occurs when young people reach
the end of their school and college
careers, and have to plunge into
the world of work. That plunge
is likely to be easier, now that
many jobs are available, than it
was when many graduates dropped
down into the vacancy of unem-
ployment.
Even though the youth is mighty
happy to land a job, he has to meet
conditions different from those of
scholastic life.
In school or college the teaching
and official force were there to
help him. They lifted him over
many hard spots.
In the working world, the novice
is there to help the boss and all
who are over and around him, in
stead of the boss and the rest Of
the people being there to help him.
He should not expect the same
amount of help that he found in
The class room. He is in competi-
lion with his rivals and associates.
II he shows any inferiority, he may
be thrown out.
So it is a bit of a shock when
he youth runs up against the hard
acts of work and business, after
he kindly and agreeable years of
ichool and college. The world has
! way, in spite of its coldness, of
recognizing honest work and pa
lent effort. The hills of work are
larder to climb than those of edu-
alton. but those who work hard
an usually climb them.

God And The War

Pope Plus XII has delivered an
impressive message to his follow
ers in which he answers the ques-
ton as to why God can permit such
horrors and cruelities as have been
committed in the present war. He
finds that the evil of the world can
exist only for a fixed time, and
that the hour of God will come,
when there will be mercy and re-
joicing and war and conflict will
pass.
why do the heather rage, and
the people imagine a vain thing?'
asked the Psalmist $500 years ago
Today the heathen are raging in
the most terrible war the world
ever saw, and some nations inn
agine vainly that they can crush
liberty down into slavery. The
power that was able to shape this
mighty universe and make it run
with infinite certainty, will not in
definitely allow men to rise up
against all justice and kindness,
and throw millions of people into
bondage.

new commandment give unto you,
That ye love one another; as 1

SERIOUS ACCIDENTS continue
at frequent intervals at the inter
section Of the Milford7Harrington-
dupont Boulevard at the western
entrance of North Milford. Acct
dents, which In the vast majority Of
Instances could be completely elm
mated If only the authorities will
take proper precautionary meas
ures. Within the past three weeks,
two crashes which sent occupants
of automobiles to the hospital suf-
fering with serious injuries, have
occurred. The solution is so easy
that is is an outright shame that
the State Highway Department has
not provided the remedy. A trip
light at the intersection, which will
bring all traffic to complete stop
is all that is needed. During the
past few years number of fatal
accidents have occurred at the spot
-and unless speedy correction Of
the method of handling the traffic
there is made-more are to be ex-
pected. In almost every crash at
this spot, cars from out=of-state
have been involved. The vision of
motorists travelling west from Mil
ford is greatly curtailed when look
ing south. This results in their
into the DUPONT Highway
with a resultant crash.
City Council, the Rotary Club,
Kiwanis Club and other organiza-
lions should take immediate steps
% bring the matter before the State
Highway Department with a re-
Iuest for an immediate installa-
ion of these trip lights. With a
member of the Highway Depart
nent residing in Milford, who is
amiliar with the dangerous cross
ng, it should be no great trouble
o convince the members of the
Highway Board with the necessity
or such light. At any rate, now
8 the time to ask for proper safety
Ights there.

Jose Iturbi Is Soloist
At Symphony Concert
Two Premieres Mark Seasons First
Performance; Playing of Liszt
Concerts Is High Point of Evening

1t is charming music IN the Mo-
zart manner when neither Influenced
by his happy or unhappy moments
and chiefly of interest today as evi-
dence of a turning point in the
composers operate course. Its fair
success was disappointment to
him, showed him the way to greater
things. Not long ago it was re-
vived in Prague without any more
conspicuous success than when first
performed in Italy.
Harris Works.
Among the several works of Mr..
Harris heard here, "Acceleration,"
written for the National Symphony
and played for the first time yes
terday, stands out for its breadth
of treatment and the clarity of its
form. Mr.. Harris made special
analysis of time when he was COM
missioned to write his Time Suite"
for the Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tenn, realizing that the question OF
periods of time is an all-important
one on the radio. 1t would seem
that "Acceleration' is. in a way,
a sequel to the other with the en-
phasis ultimately placed on speed.
The work opens with a measured
tempo punctuated now and then by
the note of a bell. Gradually the
movement quickens and the music
takes on more substance working
toward a quantity of both that well
typifieS the life rhythm of today.
The employment of the orchestral
voices is skillful and descriptive,
while the writing is easy in its flow.
A more pronounced difference in
tempo than that given it in yes
terday's reading might enhance Its
effectiveness.
The Brahms "Symphony No. II
with which the program closed. did
not suffer from any question OF
tempo. however, or from lack OF
inspiration in its Interpretation.
DR.. Kinder not only knows the
style and meaning Of this music,
but feels it deeply in all its dramatic
implications. He lent himself to
its spell and by the power of his
sympathy and musical insight led
his musicians In a mastery per-
formance. Rarely has this SYM
phony been played with such emo
tional stressing OF detail. The just
return of enthusiastic applause re-
warded him.

By ALICE EVERSMAN.

The National Symphony Orchestra
under the direction of DR.. Hans
Kinder began its eleventh season
yesterday afternoon with program
that boasted Pianist Jose Iturbi as
soloist, and two premiereS. Roy
Harris, composer of one of the
premieres, came to the stage to
acknowledge its reception by the
audience. A large crowd gathered
in Constitution Hall to welcome its
orchestra and conductor with pro-
longed applause. . The pleasant
weather could not lure the ardent
patrons away.
Hearing the Liszt Concerto No.
1" in Mr.. Iturbis Interpretation was
the croWning point of yesterdays
concert. This highly effective work
has had all kinds of treatment at
the hands of pianists according to
their lights, but few OF them have
blended poetry and virtuosity so
perfectly as did Mr.. Iturbi yeSter-
day. AS he played it, the romantic
side of the composer was even more
prominent than his love for display
and the most dashing passages were
held within the boundary of ex-
treme volume by this feeling.
The fascination of Mr.. Iturbi's
performance is not his superb tech
nique that ripples over difficulties
with complete unconcern, but in
his exquisite tone. Under his fin
gers the pianos voice is musical IN
the words full meaning. 1t rings
like a perfectly toned bell, yet there
Is a liquid quality to it never lost
in whatever the gradatlon OF effect
It is literally drawn out OF the in
etrument in such manner as to

Gives Encore.
He brought an original touch to
his reading also by the contrasts
and dynamics he employed by
means of a sparkling technique.
The fiuidity of his runs and the
perfect equality of his trillS were
but part of his extraordinary equip
ment.
A storm of applause called him
back again and again until he
finally consented to give an encore
