By ALICE EVERSMAN.

There are many pointers in the
way Of easy voice production that
Jeanette Macdonald could give to
singers of the concert and operate
stage. The lovely soprano, who
has added within recent years to
her screen fame by concert appear
ances, gave a recital last night at
Constitution Hall which was emin-
emily satisfying to both her motion
picture fans and to musicians for
the purity of vocal delivery and the
sincerity of artistic intentions.
Needless to say, the hall was packed
. and everything that Miss Mac
Donald sang was greeted with the
widest enthusiasm. Gratifying as
this is to an artist, the lack Of dis
elimination that sees no degrees of
quality in the presentation of a
program cannot be completely salts
tying to the recital giver.
The famed star has appeared
here now several times and each
year shows a rapid growth in her
interpretive powers, in her demeanor
on concert stage and in the type
Of program selected. She is more
able to give of herself in her singing
than at her first concert and to
sing songs or arias requiring deeper
insight The voice is still small and
lacking in background in the high
register but its sweetness, purity
and ease of emission more than
compensates for power. Flexible and
light in quality, it is admirably
suited to operate arias such as the
waltz Song" from Gounod' s
Romeo and Juliet" which she sang
as an encore, and to songs like
Carey's "a Pastoral and Foudrain's s
lie Papillon" on the program list.
With the exception of "Depuis lie
Jour" from Charpentier's Louise, F."
the selections were exclusively lyric
in character and Miss Macdonald
showed wisdom in using only such
material as was, appropriate to her
particular style Only four numbers
were sung in French, the rest in
English, which included Rachman-

Jeanette Macdonald Charms
Big Audience at Recital

inoff's "Lilacs" and "At Night" The
latter was followed by Release, a
song by her husband, Capt. Gene
Raymond.
In the French group were Debus-
sy's Beau Soir," Foudrain's "Papil-
Ion" and Bachelet's "Chere Mutt. +"
Everything about Miss Macdonald S
vocal art lends itself to the French
style, shown especially in her deli
cate delivery of the Debussy num-
Der. Few singers are able to sing
Bachelet's "Chere Mutt" with any
degree of facility or beauty but Miss
Macdonald gave it with freedom
and charm of expression. In the
aria from Charpentier's Louise"
she hardly met the emotional re-
quirements nor were the vocal cli-
makes pronounced enough for her
voice, which, while unrestricted in
the higher register, is thinner and
Nss appealing.
But in songs like the programmed
'The Bluebells of Scotland" and
"Smilin' Through, Coming Through
the Rye" (the latter two encores)
and Hageman's Miranda" she ex-
ercizes a charm that few singers
can command. She availed herself
of little bits of acting in Coming
Through the Rye" and The False
Prophet" another encore. which
aroused her admirers to the peak
Of enthusiasm. Her beauty and
amiable attitude inspired by a real
desire to please her public entranced
her listeners as much as her singing.
Her versatile accompanist was
Collins Smith, who had two spots on
the program for himself when he
played Chopin's "Polonaise in E Flat
Major" and Longas' "Bolero Rit-
mico" He was received as warmly
as the singer and gave as encores
Debussy's clair de Lune" and the
Chinese Dance" from Taschaikow-
sky's "Nutcracker Suite" Miss Mac
Donald's final group consisted of
Wolfe's British Children's Prayer" )"
Engels "Sea Shells" Wsrren's Mr..
Nobody" Flotow's Last Rose Of
Summer" and Herbert's "Badinage.' -

Madame Chang Kal-shek has travelled
some and talked much since she visited
washington, New York and New England
She has gone the width OF the continent,
been received In the large cities en- route
and for number Of days now has basn
on the Pacific coast On each public
appearance she gives a new message,
perhaps all relating to q common SUBJ
iect but each time expressed in different
Verblage.
She was greeted this week at Los
Angeles by hundreds Of film people and
executives who entertained her at q tea,
the only public event In that city. Her
stay in Los Angeles Is planned to be more
leisurely and she Is resting preparatory
TO her major address in the Hollywood
Bowl tomorrow afternoon.
Madame Chang Is perhaps the most
important and the most pleasing guest
from a foreign country that has ever
come on q direct mission. She gets no
unfavorable criticism and is received
everywhere with the proper degree of
enthusiasm and pleasure. BY virtue OF
her intelligence and personality she clicks
everywhere. In the face Of indiSpoSition
she somehow manages to exert herself to
the extent that she says what she has
to say in a direct and fortnight fashion.
Certainly her pilgrimage to this coun-
try, or her mission, has been one TO in
crease the friendly spirit between this
country and China and to sharply draw
the attention of all to long-Suffering
country.

The Ball-Burton-H atch-HiIl resolution
has received so much publicity that one
might suppose these senators were the
only persons who had advanced q post
war proposal. But that is not the case.
Il seems as though everybody and his
cousins all have postwar plans for which
they are ready to fight at the drop of q
hat. In the Senate alone there are seven
resolutions dealing with international
postwar problems. Outside Congress
scores Of others have been advanced. AS
q people we are intensely, vitality con-
Cerned with the shape of the world after
ootalitarianism shall have been defeated
and we are little less interested in the
shape Of our own nation, judging from
the internal postwar plans now flooding
the mails from every group financially
capable Of hiring an economist and q
publicity man.
This Is all to the good. It demonstrates
that the public is wide awake to the fact
that there are pressing problems to be
solved. It brings the democratic process
10 bear upon producing solutions, It
assures that every angle viii be explored,
every possibility suggested, every flaw
exposed. Eventually, out Of such free
for-all discussion, consensus will be-

lon arising out of the will of the people
themselves and not, as usually in the
past, imposed from above by few pro-
fessional thinkers. The number and
variety Of the ideas offered makes it seem
doubtful that any specific, detailed COM
mitment made now would reflect the
considered popular will of one or two or
three years from now.
The problem of how to create and pre-
serve world peace has confouEded the
best minds since Cain killed Abel. No
little group of senator's, no committee
from some commercial or industrial Or
ganiEation is likely to pull final answer
but of thin air. But, on the other hand,
we never shall succeed until we try. When
peace Is made, we must do whatever
seems most likely to prolong 1t most. We
want no repetition of Versailles, where
an American president without popular
guidance sold what he could not deliver.
Out Of the present chaos of postwar dis
cussion, at least President Roosevelt
should learn what is the utmost in inter-
national cooperation he can promise on
behalf of this nation. Meanwhile, on
with the war.

$4,000 a var for each OF the next

8l-Years Young

At 81 Nicholas Murray Butler Of
Columbia University has no idea of retir-
ing. He has many interests but the two
close to his heart are Columbia Univer-
sity and World Peace. DR.. Butler Is a
man Of honest expression. He very sell
dom says anything unimportant. And
generally he is quoted widely as person
whose words counts for much.
FOR more than forty-two years he has
presided over Columbia and has identi-
ned himself as leading man in educa-
ton in this country. On his birthday
and In good health he spoke to inter-
viewers about life and war and peace,
and $50, 100000 more in endowments for
scientific research for Columbia. He
does not plan to retire and hopes to go
ON working for the interests of the
university.
As usual his words were of decided
import. He said among other things IN
connection with our present civilization
which stands in danger of being wiped
out that to establish peace people must
keep their word, they must give up ly-
ing. He also said the principal law was
the moral law by which We must be
ruled. He will continue as long as pos
sihle in his presnt position, working for
Columbia and for peace. At eighty-one
these are laudable ambitions. Usually a
person arriving at these venerable years
Is satisfied to sit back, call 1t day, and
watch the rest of the world go by. Not

With the announcement yesterday that
the Hartford Retreat would change It's
name to ''The Institute of the Living"
many became acquainted for the first
time with the fact that the hospital which
specializes in nervous and mental dis
orders is one hundred and twenty-one
years old. In fact, it ranks as the Oldest
hospital in the state and is among the
states well known institutions of heal
ing. A news article states that this new
name is an outgrowth Of a program OF
therapy started twelve years ago with
definite psychiatric methods followed.
In the use of definite methods such as
are in order in the hospital DR.. c. c.
Burlingame, psychiatrist-in-chief, says
the hospital has named itself, which will
be from now on The Institute Of the
Living.

Join ..Or Quit

The A. F. of L. Machinists union has a
contract with the Warner g. Swasey plant
in Cleveland. There is no closed shop
clause. Warner & SwaSey is so hard
pressed for manpower, to produce war
goods, that some $50 school teachers,
lawyers and office workers are working
four-hour shifts, on top Of their regular
jobs, to help out.
These volunteers have been ordered by
the MachiniStS Union to "join or quit"
Most have joined, unwillingly. Some
have quit, also unwillingly. The union
president comedies that he has no right
to enforce membership, but says that
"inSiStence" of fellow workers usually
proves an effective perSuader.
What would happen If these volunteer
patriots insisted upon keeping both their
jobs and their independence? A strike?
You guess.
