Leading Artists
Secured for
Next Season
Major Events Are
Already Dated for
Music Followers
By Alice Eyersmon

The major musical events of the
season, the arranging of which has
taken much time, thought and
money, are finished and already
announcements are made regarding
what the public may expect when
the season swings into action next
year. The National Symphony plans
"a weeks instead of % with the
Sunday series increased by two con-
certs and the Wednesday night
series by one. Dorothy Hodgkin
Dorsey has IA events scheduled, 8
Sunday concerts, 6 in a weekday
evening series and 2 special Sunday
afternoon events. The Philadelphia
Orchestra will come for its regular
five concerts and three extras, for
which interesting soloists have been
chosen.
c. c. Cappel announces that he
will bring Lily Pons for a recital.
and, in addition to the Baltimore
and Boston Symphonies, the San
Francisco Symphony under Pierre
Monteux will play here. A male
chorus from Iceland is on his list
as well as Francescatti for violin
recital and Alexander Brailowsky
for Chopin program.
New on Mrs. Dorsey's list are
Patrice Munsel, the young colora-
tura soprano of the Metropolitan
Opera in a debut recital; Jussi
Bjoerling, Swedish tenor of the Met;
Eleanor Steber. Metropolitan So
prano and the harmonica virtuoso,
Larry Adler, teamed with Paul
Draper, famous tap dancer.
The National Symphony will have
Myra Hess, Rudolf Firkusny, Tossy
Spivakovsky, Igor Gorin, Spalding.
Kreisler, Rubinstein. Petri, Granger,
Serkin, Swarthout and Dorothy Kir-
stem among its soloists.
This splendid musical fare is pro-
vided for the entertainment, educa-
tion and spiritual uplift of the
public. 1t is doubtful if the patrons
of the seasons concerts realize that
they also have duty in regard to
the artists they hear. Naturally,
the managers are not motiyated by
complete altruistic feelings in ar
ranging these concerts but they do
select their artists with care and
with thought of covering as many
types as possible. But it is the re-
sponsibility of the audience to pass
on the character of the perform
ances and to express itself accord
ingly.
1t would do the listeners no harm
to shout their approval some times
or to otherwise give an uninhibited
expression of their appreciation. 1t
would stimulate the artist to re-
newed efforts, whereas lukewarm
approval is disheartening. On the
other hand, one who cannot or will
not exert himself to full artistic per-
formance should not be misled by
generous applause. Artists have
| standards they are aiming. for, but
| if the public is content with medioc-
rity they become discouraged and
might we'll feel, What is the use?"
The greatest spur to the growth OF
musical artistry is discriminating
public, unafraid to be demonstrative
but not to be fooled by halfway
measures

Expenses of the delegates and

have urged the Syrians to stand on
their rights as q sovereign country
hoping to ward OF major friction with
one or several of the Western nations
in the event Moscow decides to put
real pressure on the Turks.
Edward r. Stettinius, head Of the
American delegation to the UNO, felt
that the Syrian question was not as
heavily laden with dynamite as the
Iranian question had been. He sug-
gested that similar solution be used
to settle the Syrian dispute.
Iran and Russia arranged to compose
their differences by direct negotiation.
The question of the withdrawal of a
large number of Russian forces in
Azerbaijan-estimated at about 20 di-
visions-was never mentioned. The
small Middle Eastern kingdom was
asked to send representatives to Mos
cow and do its best to avert a clash.
This was done promptly. The Iranian
premier arrived early this week in Mos
COW and was received with great pomp
by CommisSar Molotov. This is al
ways an indication that Moscow ex-
poets no opposition from the visiting
foreign representative.
Y
In the Syrian British dispute the So
luton proposed by Mr.. Stettinius was
much more limited. 1t provided that
the British and the Syrians sit down
together to agree on only one issue, the
date of Britain's evacuation of Syria.
To eVerybodys surprise, Deputy Com
missar Vishinsky used Russias veto
power against what appeared to most
of the delegates of the peace-Ioving
nations to be a just and equitable So
luton to settlement of a dispute be-
tween two members of the UNO. The
veto has left the whole thing in the
air.
According to information received in
Washington recently, the British gov
ernment now intends to take its time
before ordering its forces out of Syria
In some military quarters it is be-
lieved that before the British evacuate
Syria altogether, their forces, particu-
larly the air arm, might be strength
ened. The period between April and
September is considered in London as
likely to be the most critical of the
immediate postwar area. If the storms
expected during these months can be
weathered, the entire world situation
will improve

Too Many Formers?

Ontario's Minister of Agriculture, T L.
Kennedy says that about one-fourth
of the people on farms might Just as
well be elsewhere for all the good they
do. If some $4,000 of Ontario's $4,000
farmers were doing something else, he
thinks, things would be better. He
neglected to say for whom they would
be better. But lot of farmers, he de-
ciares, aren't any great shakes at farm
ing: They merely make a living" Mr..
Kennedy may not think that is much
OF an achievement. Perhaps it isn't,
but it is worth pointing out that max
ing living out of farm and not out
OF somebody else has its merits even
from broad, statesmanlike point of
view. It is well known that
the general level of capability and
adaptability among farmers is above
the general average for other callings.
Should Mr.. Kennedy and those who
think like him organize a back to the
city" movement for his lower quar-
ter" these So-called slipshod farmers
would IN due course oust an equivalent
number of us city dwellers. They would
accomplish this through their superior
competence, and that would leave us
nowhere to go except back to the

Supreme Court by President Roosevelt
In 1889 and has had nearly seven years
on the bench.
II Mr.. Douglas, now or later, takes a
political appointment, he might recall
That such move by Mr. Byrnes did not
net him a vice presidential nomination,
and that on the other hand a presiden-
tial nomination did go to member of
the Supreme Court in 1916 Charles
Evans Hughes at that time was a
member OF the court, and the Republ-
can National Convention rendered him
a presidential nomination. It was a
major political party calling him to run
Tor the highest elective office in the land
"a different thing from taking a polit-
lcal appointment by a President in the
hope of political preferment in the
future. Even SO, there was criticism of
the Republican party and of Mr.. Hughes
Tor accepting presidential nomination.
l.e, leaving the supreme bench and
going into the political arena. Mr.,
Hughes was defeated in the election
and later, considerably later, he was
appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court. in which Office he made an out
standing record.
4
Two other members of the Supreme
Court were selected by the late President
Roosevelt to tackle jobs outside of their
court duties-but jobs intimately associ-
ated with the recent war The first was
Justice Roberts, now retired, whom the
President sent as head of a commission
to investigate the Pearl Harbor disaster
soon after Japan's attack. The second
was Justice jackson who has been in
Germany as this country's principal
representative in connection with the
trial of war criminals.
Some New York Democrats would
very much like to nominate Justice
jackson for Governor of their State this
year, to run against Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey if the latter stands for reelection
as he is expected to do. They do not
know whether Mr.. Jackson would agree
to leave the bench If such a nomination
were rendered to him. These same New
York Democrats have in mind the fact
that If they can elect Governor this
year, he will be the logical nominee for
Vice President to run with President
Truman in 1S48. Or If President
Truman for some reason did not run,
then Democratic New York Governor
would certainly have a good opportunity
for the presidential nomination itself.
Not little, therefore, depends upon
the attitude OF Justice Douglas and of
Justice jackson toward politics and the
Supreme Court

RuSSia's Information Search
BY George Fielding Eliot

There is no occasion for hysteria over
the disclosure that Russian emissaries
are trying to obtain military information
in Canada. In the present state of sus-
picion between the Russians and the
English-speaking nations, this sort of
thing is to be expected We have just
set up national intelligence service
for the purpose of keeping ourselves
informed about what goes on elsewhere
in the world, and we can hardly blame
the Russians for doing likewise: es-
pecially considering that at present they
have neither the atomic bomb nor a
long-range air force with which to
deliver it, while we and our British and
Canadian associates have both.
1t may be useful to recall the
immediate background of Canadian
American military association. The two
countries established on August II, 1910,
a permanent joint board on defense.
which has been in active existence ever
since 1t consists of two civilian Co
chairmen, one for each nation, and of
representatives of the chief of staff
tArmy, Navy and Air) of each nation
1t has no executive authority, but its
recommendations have almost invari.
ably been carried out. It's announced
purpose is to make studies relating to
sea, air and land problems, including
personnel and material, and to consider
in the broad sense, the defense of the
northern half of the Western Hemi-
sphere" Under its guidance, the armed
forces of Canada and the United States
are now preparing plans for the closest
sort of cooperation in matters of
continental security.

Early in January of this year, Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Chief of Staff

well have been the conditions affecting
