Music Teachers
Concert Pleases
BY ELENA de SAYN.

1t is always with interest that one
anticipates concerts featuring music
by local composers, as was the case
last night at the Arts Club, because
the music presented invariably con-
tains some personal message. The
concert was given under the auspices
of the Washington Music Teachers
Association.
Mary Howe's Song and "Patria"
for cello, played by Howard Mitchell
and Sol Sax, pianist, the former Sc
lection having its premiere, were
lovely in their simplicity and abb
sence of affectation. These two num-
bers and r. Dean Shre's eye Heav-
enly Harps," sung by Margaret
Barnwell, soprano, were not only
grateful for the performers, but also
distinctive for their beauty and up
lifting character.
"City Streets" suite for piano,
presented and composed by Dorothy
Raddle Emery after stanzas by Alden
H. Emery, presumably the poets au-
photographed sketch, is well re-
membered for its tuneful lilt, being
introduced here earlier in the sea-
son by Mrs. Emery. 1t was fol-
lowed by Alba Rosa Vietor's "Elegie"
for violin, played by the COM
poser, assisted by Marietta Vo-
gel at the piano. Written at the
time of Jan Kubelik's death and
dedicated to him, Nine Victor
sounds an effective mournful note
in the piano introduction. She
added to the program her "valse
Romantique," which eXhausts the
resources of the violin.
Through HARLAN Meyer, pianist.
La Sale Spier acquainted the audi
ence with his "Valse Epilogue" and
Essence of Clown" The former
had many possibilities for dramatic
expression. It's solemn mood was
contrasted with the second piece,
playful in character.
The program closed with three
arrangements by Mr.. Shure Ancient
Plain Song (Bohemian), Peace Be
Still" (from Haydn's Mass in G'D
and Praise to the Lord" (old Italian
hymn sung by the Cloister Choir
sextet, Margaret Barnwell, Erma
Crays, Florence Byham, Carol Gra-
ham, Betty Hammer and Gladys
Helmers. Dorothy Girdner Bailey
was the accompanist.

Youth, II, Admits Killing
Mother 10 Satisfy Urge
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, April Is.
A 17-year-old vocational school
student was held today in connec-
ton with the fatal shooting of his
mother.
Prosecutor Menso r. Bolt said
Mrs. Blanche Rawson, As, was shot
as she was busy with the family
washing yesterday and that her son,
Marvin, had admitted the crime.
i just had an urge to kill" Mr..
Bolt said young Rawson explained
after walking into police station
to tell of his mothers death.
MIR. Bolt said Detective Inspector
Albert F. Scheirn asked the youth
If he had a grudge against his
mother and that Rawson replied,
NO, she was good to me. = 1t
was just that had a desire to kill
some one."

Rising Living Costs
Cited as War Budget
Goes 10 Commons
ny the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, April 25.-The cost of
living in Britain now Is 20 per cent
above It's prewar level and still rising
despite government attempts at
stabilization, which last year alone
cost $3.50, 100000, Sir John Anderson,
chancellor of the exchequer, told
Commons today.
In his budget message, he said
personal incomes in the country had
increased s., ,400, ,000, 900 above 1912.
Of the 1943 increase in income.
more than half-$1, $40, 900, ,0o0-was
paid out in additional taxes. A part
of the remainder, 1884, 900 900, went
into national savings. The rest was
spent.
Subsidies Held Costs Down.
Without the steadily increased
government expenditures toward
stabilization-mostly in subsidies
the cost of living would have in
creased about As per cent over pre-
war levels and might have reached
so per cent this year, Sir John said.
Il am disturbed at the trend of
these figures" he told the House.
II am afraid we no longer can re-
gard the cost of living figure of Is
to 80 per cent above prewar as sac
rosanct."
Wage rates, he added, have risen
II per cent more than the cost of
living to date.
"a Price to Pay"
Before leaSe-lend came in," he
said, I'VE had used up $4,000, 900 900
in assets and undischarged overseas
liabilities amounted to another S.
600 ,000,0 ,000 We are not yet at the
end of this tale. We have parted
with all this not to neutrals, but
some 80 per cent to our Allies and
associates, most of whom will
emerge from this war with their
overseas financial position greatly
strengthened as the result of it,
just as ours is gravely weakened.
mo country can wage a war on
this basis for several years and
emerge in the end without a price
to pay. We have not yet paid that
price,"
Income Tax Unchanged.
Britain's invasion year budget with
expenditures of $23, ,748, ,000, ,000-$3,-
124 4,000, 900 over 1943-was submitted
to Commons by Sir John, who pro-
posed that taxation produce slightly
more than half, roughly $500 from
every man, woman and child in the
nation.
He placed the total estimated tax
revenue for 1914 at $12 ,408, 900 000-
$780, 100000 over last year, leaving
the rest to be raised by borrowing.
The income tax remained un-
changed. The treasury thus took
the view that the nation, now paying
so per cent tax on income and 100
per cent on outright luxuries, vir-
tually has reached it's taxable ca
pacity.

Retail Trade Rises.
8 10 12Per Cent
Above Year Ago
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1l.-Retail
trade edged further upward this
week and was well above this time
last year, Dun e. Bradstreet said
today In q review OF business that
showed encouraging trends In other
induces.
Interest in fall apparel lines rose
as cooler weather helped boost sales
Of coats, wooden dresses and fall
sportswear," the agency said. Final
clearances Of summer goods were
well received. Limited stocks of
furniture and other housewares held
down sales in these departments.
Retail food volume was above a year
ago.
Wholesale markets remained
quiet again this week. Buyers found
recorders difficult to book In many
instances. Retailers in all apparel
trades indicated that deliveries of
better quality fall merchandise are
better than at this time last year."
The review found industrial pro-
duction at the high level Of recent
weeks except In only minor in
stances.
Retail volume was estimated at q
to IL per cent above the 1943 week
for the country as q whole, with the
following percentage changes in the
various areas: New England, to Z:
East, 9 to II; Middle West, S to 8;
Northwest, 7 to 10; South, 8 to IL;
Southwest, II to Is; Pacific Coast,
Is to 10.

Gains Scored by Rails
And |ndustria|s in
Stock Market
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Aug. ll.-Purchasers
turned to selected rail and industrial
leaders in today's stock market and,
while the recent low-priced motor
and utility sprinters were active at
intervals, the majority failed to get
anywhere In particular.
Investors reinstated some Of their
sold-out holdings of pivotals on the
belief the European war still had
some distance to 60 and that by
the time the Nazis collapse recon-
version plans at home may be
pretty well in hand. Good earnings
compilations and a slight rise In
political optimism served as bolster
Ing factors.
Dealings expanded now and then
after moderately fast opening
but slow-downs were plentiful. A
little cashing in here and there by
those leaving for an extended week
end trimmed or cancelled extreme
advances or fractions to q point or
more near the close. Transfers
were around 1000, 900 shares.
American Water Works managed
to edge into new top ground for the
year. Ahead most Of the session
were Santa Fe, N. Y. Central
Southern Pacific, U. s. Steel, Chrys-
Ter, Radio Corp, Westinghouse, Du
Pont, Sears Roebuck, U. s. Rubber
Oliver Farm. Douglas Aircraft
United Aircraft and Johns Man
Vile.

D. {. Banks Prepare
For New War Bond
Cashing System
BY EDWARD C. STONE.

~
Washington banks will be geared
to the cashing of United States Wa,
Bonds on October l, the date sci
by the Treasury for the starting OF
this new Nationwide service which
is aimed to relieve the Federal Re.
serve Banks OF the great amount Of
extra work, 1t was learned today.
Ever since the first War Bonds
were placed on the market, the

partments for the sale and oistribu-
ton Of these bonds. Sales both dur
ing and between drives have run

ing system.
Compensation to the banks for
the service, rules of Identification
and host of other regulations are
now being arranged by Treasury
officials in conjunction with bank
ing representatives. All these rules
will be announced shortly.
While a great majority Of the
bonds will be held for investment
until maturity, there are reasons
why a good many are cashed each
month and Treasury officials fee
that it will be most helpful and
practical to have this work done
in the banks. District banks have
already cashed good many War
Bonds for patrons, some charging
a fee for the service.
