Breton Woods Plans
May Get Approval Of
Business Conference
By the Associated Press.

RYE, N. Y, Nov 13-An indica-
ton that the international business
conference may give some measure
of approval to the monetary pro-
posals adopted at Breton Woods
last July was given today as dele
gates resumed their discussions of
postwar trade problems after a
Sunday recess.
1t was learned from an authorita-
tive source that the American dele
cation will present recommended
ton that the Breton Woods agree
ments for an international none
tary fund and a world reconstruc-
ton bank be given careful consid-

war currency problems.
Aldrich on Panel.
One OF the main subjects being
considered by this conference OF
about 300 businessmen from 81 ma
tons is that of currency relations
among nations, and the United
States representative on the cur
rency panel is Winthrop W. Aldrich,
chairman of the board of the Chase
National Bank of New York.
In recent discussions of the Bret
ton Woods proposals, American
bankers have been generally OPP
posed to the money sterilization
fund and only lukewarm to the
world bank for reconstruction.
1t was pointed out that any sign
from United States banking or bust
ness circles which is in any way
favorable to the Breton Woods
plans would go long way toward
getting conference approval for both
the fund and the bank, and, al
though this conference has no Off
cial standing with any of the ma
tons represented here, it's member
ship would carry no little weight
with the various governments.

Under the draft outlined at Breton
Woods, this country would subscribe
a total of approximately $4,000, OO0,-
900 to the fund and the bank.
Another subject attracting much
attention is that of the commercial
policy of nations, which has to do
with tariffs and trade controls. OF
almost equal Importance is the ques-
ton of cartels, or trade agreements
governing the flow of goods or raw
materials. The conferences atti-
tude on this subject will not be

A distinguished audience headed
by. Mrs. Roosevelt and including
many representatives of the United
Nations gathered in the stately Hall
of the Americas in the Pan-Ameri-
can Union last night for the cele-
bration Of Pan-American Day. A
pause in the musical program pro-
vided by the Navy Band Orchestra,
under the direction of 1t. Charles
Brendler, with the Cuban pianist,
1t. Jorge Bolet as soloist. permitted
the broadcast to the neighboring re-
publics of the address by Secretary
of State Cordell Hull, who is chair
man of the governing board of the
union.
Introduced by DR.. Leo S. Rowe,
Mr.. Hull traced the road the unity
of the republics of this hemisphere
has followed in the past 10 years
The presence of 1t. Bolet as So
loist of this particular program was
most appropriate, for this gifted
young Cuban has in his concert ap-
pearances here and abroad fulfilled

| the talent of Latin American artists.
He presented two groups of num-
bers, the first consisting of Schu-

and Chopin's "Nocturne in F Sharp
Major" and "Scherzo in B Flat
Minor" and the second devoted to
compositions by outstanding musical

wrought by light, fluent touch, and
the power and fire equally easy of
command, contributed special inter-
est to his playing
The three numbers forming the
Latin American group, Morillo's
"Cancion triSte y DANA allegro"
Guarnieris "Toada triste" and Gin
astera's PLEAS intantiles," were
choice works by these outstanding
men. They represented an unusual
range of fantasy from moods of
sadness to the WITNESSES of the

Originality and sound craftsmanship.
1t. Bolets delivery of them was
brilliant and full of sentiment.
The splendid ensemble of musi-
vs. that comprise the Navy Band
lestra introduced an especially

quay. The varying rhythms and
harmonies bearing national stamp
are woven together in a work of
symphonic proportions which the
orchestra played in spirited manner.
Under the clearly defined and au-
thoritive directing of 1t. Brendler,
the organization achieves finely
planned effects that bring into the
foreground the virtuoSity of the mu-

bolic gold of so years. and printed on
newsprint. The ordinary souvenir
program of an annual county fair
could not have looked more shy and
self-effacing and, in comparison, the
press book of a straight class c
movie resembles hand-illuminated
volume fit for the Folger Library.
The foreword was equally modest:
The first public exhibition of mo-
ton pictures in the world was held
so years ago-April IA, 1894-in a
converted shoe store at 1155 Broad
way, near 9th street, in New York
City.
AN awed process of men and
women in top hats and bowlers, in
bustles and tatfeta, passed through
the hall in which the newly
invented (Edison) kaleidoscope ma
chimes had been installed; glued
their eyes to the narrow slots,
peered with fascina ton at the spec
tacle of the moving photograph.
1--WE would smile today at the
primitive program of the first mo-
ton picture show, at the thought
of so much excitement over a peep
show. What did the ladies and gen.
tlemen see as they gazed into the
slots? Perhaps brief shot of the
waters of Niagara rolling over the
cliff, view of Sandow fexing his
muscles, the incredible spectacle of
horse and carriage as it passed
the camera-and they were all sat
isfied. (The actual bill of eight
short subjects has been forgotten by
the only living subscriber)
A critic caught up suddenly like
that-as the industry itself was ever
so obviously-can only observe that
progress seems to have been won-
derful.
And he might add that perhaps
the industry as a whole is waiting
for some future date for more
lavish celebration of so years.
A commentary on the progress of
the movies that is much more
emphatic than anything in the
hastily prepared booklet of the
industry is to be found on the
first page of yesterdays New York
Times.

And then, before we can say no

in the movies % years ago. She
played a couple of small parts,

was whisked away from the place
