American Education Week No
vember IL through 16. Much

this effort.

Condemns Fund Plan.
Although the ABA report recog-
nized . need for international cur
rency, 1t condemned the Breton
Woods monetary fund plan In these
words:
"As opposed to the usual lending
practice which places the RESPONSE
bility for making out 4 case for
credit upon the borrower, the fund
goes on the theory that the bor-
rover Is entitled to credit unless
the lender can make out = case
to the contrary. And under the
Breton Woods plan, the lender Is
Ian institution In which the United
States would have only q minority
vote as compared with actual and
potential borrowers. :"
Members OF the House Banking
Committee were unwilling to discuss
the ABA report today, saying they
preferred to await full hearings on
the Breton Woods enabling act.

The Breton Woods internationa

lNino Martini Wins
|Plaudits as Alfredo
With Miss CIarroto
By ALICE EyERSMAN.

The only occasion the local public
has had to hear Nino Martini, tenor
|of the Metropolitan, in opera was
provided by the performance OF
verdi's la Traviata" last night In
Constitution Hall presented by the
Washington Grand Opera Company.
1t also offered the opportunity to
near the splendid baritone voice Of
Donald Dickson in the role of
Glorgio Germont and to welcome
back Nuncy Garotto, who sang the
part OF Violetta with the same COM
pany last year and made her first
appearance here in the same opera
at the National Theater some time
ago.
It is seldom that the character of
Alfredo has found a portrayer that
both physically and vocally fits the
part. Mr.. Martini was a handsome
and elegant figure and his easy,
graceful department was carried out
throughout the various scenes. He
sang naturally with unforced quail
Iity and his voice is especially well
suited to the romantic style of music
allotted to Alfredo. Without any at
tempt to overdo the emotional
scenes, he nevertheless contrived,
with an economy of means, to
achieve the dramatic climaxes.
Miss Garotto is sterling artist
who had her own individual inter-
pertation OF the suffering Violetta.
Her voice is of considerable volume
ana attained Its greatest expression
as an adjunct to her dramatic feel
Ing. Her singing in the first act was
not OF the brilliant type OF the
purely coloratura voice, but conveyed
more sentiment In a genuine fash
ion. She is singer with marked
histrionic ability and made her in
tervtew with Alfredo's father and
her final scenes moving by the in
tensity she brought to their develop
ment.
The fine aria of the second act
given to the elder Germont was the
medium for full appreciation of
the large, sonorous and excellently
schooled voice of Mr.. Dickson. Its
richness and freedom filled the hall
ana evoked a storm of applause. His
acting Of the role was less impress
sive, but the fresh and spontaneous
quality OF his singing, by far the
best by a baritone to be heard in
the auditorium, more than compen-
sated for 1t. He, together with Miss
Garotto and Mr.. Martini, was re-
called several times.
The small but important charac-
ter Of Flora was well taken by Mil
dred Ippolito and Umberto Sorren-
tino was adequate as Gastone. Beat
rich Altieri as Annina, Francesca
Curci as Baron Douphol and Paul
Dennis in the two roles of MARQUIS
|D'Obigny and DR.. Grenvil com.
|pleted the cast, which was surround
ed by q large and vocally proficient
chorus.
A ballet of young and personable
dancers enlivened the party in Flo
ra's house, which, like all the festive
scenes, was colorfully staged. The
orchestra was conducted by Gabriel
Simeoni.

UNEASY IS REST
 OF MANY MAJOR
 BALL MANAGERS
Braves Bob Coleman Sec ond Headman to Toss in
 Sponge This Year
By Jack Hand Associated Press Sports Writer)

Bob Coleman of the Boston Braves is the second big league manager to toss in the sponge under the wartime strain of watch ing indifferent work by inadequate help-and the end is not in sight
 Evansville Bob dropped the Braves job in the lap of Coach Del Biusonette yesterday; follow ing Fat Freddy Fitzsimmons, late of the Phillies, into the clubhouse reserved for the T Used To Be a Manager" group.
 Joe Mccarthy of the New York Yankees has made reservations in the same rooming house but isn't sure yet. Marse Joe offered to quit but was coaxed back by Larry Mac Phail to think it over. He's still thinking it over and last night his wife said he planned to rejoin the team when he's well again
 Pittsburgh has been giving Frankie Frisch a jumping case of the heebie- jeebies, prompting Presi- dent Bill Benswanger to make a hurried trip to Boston when the Pirates were Hopping toward a permanent seat in the second divi- sion.
 The ex-Fordham Flash has jug gled his lineup to include every body except the clubhouse boy and that may come next. Rumors say Frisch will be managing elsewhere next year unless the Buccos make a sharp form reversal.
 Cincinnati attendance has been down and the club unimpressive, hardly an indictment of Deacon Bill McKechnie, who has been do- ing wonders with a patchwork crew. But here again the scuttle- Tut reports another managerial change brewing
 Even calm, placid tempered Mel Ott of the New York Giants became so upset as to plaster a $500 fine on his ace pitcher, Bill Voiselle, in the heat of a losing game. He gave him back the money later, but it just goes to show how upset a manager can become.

SUGGESTION
 I5 MADE FOR
 PREPARATIONS

WASHINGTON July 31.-Senator Mitchell CD-Wash) suggested today that part of any German separations payments be used for an interna- ticnal exchange of students and technical experts.
 Mitchell said he had asked the state department to investigate the possibilities of developing such a rlan under the United Nations char ter.
 ''The Nazis,' he told a reporter, spent billions in tearing down edu- cational and social structures of Europe. It has cost $375,000, 900, 900 to halt that catastrophe Germany should be required to pay separations or indemnities to the Council for education, provided in the charter, and this money should be used to foster education throughout the world"
 Mitchell enyisions two methods of utilizing these funds: O-The in terchange of students, permitting them to familiarize themselves with cultures in other countries, and O. the exchange of technicians and en- gineers to improve production and development of new products.
