Howard Mitchell
Gives Recital at
National Gallery
By ELENA DE SAYE

A recital, the program OF which
promised an artistic exploit of the
cello and its unlimited capacity for
cantabile playing, brought many
people together last night to hear
Howard Mitchell, first cellist of the
National Symphony Orchestra. The
concert was given under the aus
pices OF the National Gallery of Art
in the East Garden Court.
Opening with three Introductory
selections: Bach's Allegro" Re
citativo" and Weber's "Rondo," the
flrst two showing the resonant quail
ties OF his instrument, the last the
agility Of his bow, Mr.. Mitchell pre-
pared his audience for the novelty
OF the evening, Hindemith Sonata.
op. as, No. g. for cello solo. One
OF the satisfying features of the
work, from the listeners point of
view, Is the clear picture derived
from the composers methods, the
boldness Of his modulations and the
breadth Of his style. The absence
OF an accompanying instrument
leaves his objectives unobstructed,
since the usual independence of the
SAAAPOcSi III
parts often obscures the view on
nrst hearing. The work has dra-
matte intensity and strength, Offer
Ing, at the same time, enough me-
chanical difficulties for the PLAYER
to make its study absorbing and
worth while.
What Cesar Franck did for the
v1olinist by Incorporating into his
violin sonata everything that shows
v1rtuoso at his very best. Rach-
maninoff was able to do for the
cellist in his Sonata in G minor.
op. 49," 1t belongs to his most in
spired compositions. Poetic and
tender in the main, it has sufficient
forcefulness in the piano part to
onset its elegiac character and to
free 1t from all sentimentality. At
his best. Mr.. Mitchell gave the work
. sensitive and thoughtful reading,
ably supported by Sol Sax. Both
artists were awarded a prolonged
ovation at the conclusion of the
number.
In her "Ballade Fantasque," writ
ten on long lines, Mary Howe gives
the cello many opportunities for ex-
preston. She writes well for the
instrument and very capably ex-
ploits its sonorities. The occasional
use OF the high register lends poign-
ancy to the work which is otherwise
tyrique IN character. Belonging
harmonically to a later period than
Rachmaninoff's opus, the banade
would have gained in effectiveness
II placed before the intermission.
De Falla's Suite Populaire Espag-
mole" consisting of Eel Pano Nor
uno," Mama" "Jota," "Asturiana"
and Polo" closed an excellently ex-
ecuted program to which Bachs
"Arioeo was added as an encore. |

Jap Navy's Big Blow
Aqain Is Threatened
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 18.-Masanori
Ito, naval commentator OF the
Japanese Domei news agency, said
today that with the enemy grad
ually drawing nearer our vital inner
defense line" the japanese Navy
"alertly is watching for an oppor-
tune moment to deal a decisive
blow"
will it be possible for Japan to
replenish its air force before the
enemy task force makes its appear
ance," Ito asked In a Tokyo broad
cast recorded by the FEC, "or will
the United States fleet be able to
rush to the strategic point which
she is aiming to take? The winner
of this race will be the holder of
the key to victory.
"A prerequisite for the enemy to
commence the battle is that the
enemy swing into action before
Japans replenishment Of its air
force, which constitutes the only
weak point of the japanese Navy"
Evening star., 1944-09-18

the Newspaper said, "and hers n
this country concern and apprehen-
sion are sometimes expressed in high
places on that account. Such fears
are quite out Of place"
Declaring imperialism had made
Britain wealthy and wise," the
Express said it had equipped our
people with q far horizon"
American imperialists want q
foothold in Dakar and In the East
and Far East" the paper added.
They seek control of those islands
in the Pacific which have been a
source of menace and misery to
them when held by the Japanese.
"Is that q good policy for Ameri-
cans? OF course 1t is, for 1t brings
them world interests-and security
against Japanese threats and at
tacks.
"Is 1t good for Britain, too? OF
course. The outlook of the two peo-
plies necessarily takes the same
form and seeks similar expression" /"

Proposal 10 AlIot Food
ToLow-Income Group'
Revived in Congress
~ the Associated Press.

A proposal for food allotment
plan to get about 100000 tons Of
war-accumulated surplyses into the
homes Of low-income groups was
revived in Congress today.
Senator Aiken, Republican, of
Vermont estimated that a Govern
ment appropriation Of $400, 900 900
for . years operation could provide
at least 10 per cent Of basic diet
for up to 100000 Americans.
Chairman Gillette called Sem
ate Agriculture Subcommittee to-
gether to consider a report On the
bill, which Senator Aiken sponsored
Jointly with Senator La Toilette,
Progressive, of Wisconsin. He pre-
dicted favorable report after re-
vision, but said he doubted if it
could be pushed through Congress
until after the New Year.
The committee was called after
. report by War Mobilization Di-
rector James F. Byrnes estimating
the Government would have the
2,100, ,000-ton food surplus on hand
after Germany's collapse.
"Tnis ties in with our bill, which
was drafted with the idea of pro-
viding q means OF postwar adjust
ment for the underprivileged and
of preventing the accumulation of
food surpluses." Senator Aiken told
reporters.
The idea was rejected by the
Senate last spring, 46 to 20, when
it was offered as an amendment
to the price tabilization law.
Its object is to assure the avail
ability for one year to all members
of families with incomes Of $1,4OO
or less a diet equivalent to at least
10 per cent Of what has been found
to be the basic food need Of the
average person. 1t would be ac-
complished with free coupons with
which recipients could get food at
stores,

LAM0TTA NEARING
TOPS in BOXING
BY LARRY SMITH

CLEVELAND, April 20. -(R -
Jake Lamotta has come a long
way in the leather pusing industry
in 81 months.
The rough housing New York
middleweight, generally recog-
nized as the number one man in
his division, was paid 5000 for a
Cleveland bout with Jimmy
Reeves back in 1941 but he's guar
anteed $12,500, with privilege of
35 per cent of the gate, for his
hereunder with Lloyd Marshall at
the arena tomorrow night.
A emotta-Marshall tuss1e has
been in the making for several
months and Lamotta's handlers
finally signed for the match after
Marshall, the top ranking active
light heavyweight, agreed to pare
down to ISL pounds. Marshall must
reach that figure Or forfeit $1,000.
Fritzie Zivic may have been a
factor in efforts to stage a Lamot-
ta-Marshall scrap. Jake has spent
a good portion of his ring career
fighting Zivic and when Uncle
Sam beckoned the Pittsburgher,
Lamotta had to find new play
mate.
Among recent accomplishments
Jake passed up Fritzie long enough
to hand Ray (Sugar) Robinson the
first defeat of his career.
The rugged fastener became
the early choice of the betters be-
cause of the weight angle, but the
Sacramento, Cal, Negro rose to
rs favoritism by taking off the
necessary poundage and still look
ing sharp in gymnasium drills.
The two performers are exact
opposites in style. Lamotta comes
in and throws punches, lots of
punches. He also misses a lot and
leaves himself open. Marshall is
one Of the best counter-punchers
in the business and Lamotta's
rushing tactics are made to order
for him.

Commercial Hatchery
Production OF Chicks
Reported Decreasing

RALEIGH, April 2O-(RNCom-
mercial hatchery production of
chicks in North Carolina for the
first three months of 1914 totaled
IL, 900, 900, compared with 14,762,-
900 for the same period last year,
the statistics division of the State
Department of Agriculture said
today.
Low matches in January and
February contributed to the de-
crease in the first quarters total
although the March production
totaled 100000, or $4,000 more
than were produced in March of
last year, the report showed.
