Symphony Grows
To 100 Musicians
For Its 18th Year

An orchestra of 100 musicians
will take the stage in Constitution
Hall on October Is. reaching at last
the objective for which DR.. Hans
Kinder. It's founder, strove for so
many years, climaxing Is years Of
service to the Nations Capital
Back at its inception, In 1881, the
National Symphony Orchestra was
only 10 men strong, selected from
the ranks of local musicians. In
subsequent years the number was
brought up to 80 and finally to 30
players. But for the intervention
Of war the goal of 100 would have
been reached sooner.
During the first year of the war
the orchestra lost so per cent of its
personnel to the Army. Navy, Ma
rine Corps and the Coast Guard.
The situation was so serious that
thought was given to abandoning
the symphony until peacetime. How
ever, young men and women grad
yates Of Americas famous music
institutions were called upon to fill
the existing gaps and helped TO
bring the organization to its present
point of excellence.
In order to place a 100-piece or
chestra on the Constitution Hall
stage it will be necessary to add
wooden apron about feet wide.
This will bring the group closer to
the audience and improve acoustics.
1t has been planned to increase the
violin section to 80 members. The
addition of second harpist, more
violas, cellos, woodwinds and brass
will complete the new ensemble.
Engagements outside OF Washing
ton will necessitate reducing the
orchestra to its previous status while
on tour, but 100-piece symphony
will be feature of its regular Bal

responsibility in the matter of
clean, law-abiding taverns condi-
tons, in the form of Self-Regula-
ton within the industry. More
than eight years ago this program
was launched by certain ~farsighted
midwestern brewers including our
own here in Nebraska. They saw
that they had a mutual interest
with the public in finding a perm
anent solution to the alcoholic be-
verage problem. On the industry's
part. self-regulation is a practical
workable program; one of good
conduct in %taverns. moderation in
the sale and consumption of beer,
and of wholehearted cooperation
with public authorities.
Mr. Sandal quote dsections of
the Nebraska Liquor Control Act
which forbid brewers and whole
salers from being directly or in
directly interested in the owner
ship conduct or operation Of the
business of any licensed retailer,
authorized to sell alcoholic liquor
under this Act. This means, he
pointed out, that the public not

INDEPENDENT WHITE TELLS
CHICAGO PROGRESSIVES

CHICAGO. Sept. 28-Keynoting
the Conference of Progressives
with Henry Morganthau Jr-. Har-
old L. Ickes and Philip Murray,
held IN Chicago today. Walter
White executive secretary of the
NAACP urged that the groups re-
presented at the Conference do
everything in u power to see
that ar intelligent and liberal
Congress is elected.
Speaking as an American but
also as a Negro American, White
said that despite the fact that
Negroes, and especially Negro We
terans, have been subjected to a
wave of incredibly sadistic mob
violence during recent months. the
Negro shares none of the tired
liberalism of many of his fellow
Americans. Said the secretary, We
r not disheartened and we are
looking forward not backward. We
r determined. no matter what
the cost may be, to utilize our
growing political strength not only
to end lynching, the poll tax. Sc
gregationn unequal educational
and job opportunities, but also
every other form of discrimina-
ton which afflicts Americans gen.
orally. Ours is an increasingly in
dependent vote. 1T concentrates
increasingly on men and measures
not on meaningless party labels
We know from bitter experience
that everytime the liberties Of one
American are circumscribed, by
so much are tn CELEBRITIES of all
Americans lessened.
At the outset of his speech. Mr..
White emphasized the fact that he
did not think a third party was
the answer either in 1916 or in
1913. He said not long before he
died Mr.. Wendell Willkie told me
that he had made an exhaustive
study Of the possibilities of a 3rd
party, onl yto learn that it would
take a minimum of six years to
get a third partv listed on the bal
lot of all the states.

gressive Archbishop of Detroit,

led the best interracial testimon-
ial of its kind 1 have ever witness
sed by veteran in~terracial cam
paigner FIR. John LaFarge, S. ].
who delivered the sermon during
the Mass.
Cardinal Mooney declared that
christianity is indeed a revolu-
tionary force in the world. But
the Christian revolution begins
with the moral regeneratio nof
the individual and through the in
dividual brings into society the
saving power of justice and char
ity and the freedom of Christ.
Catholics in general and prac-
tically every minority racial group
in u country have suffered dis
elimination and have been expo
sed to exploitation for sinister pur
poses. This is true of the Irish
and and the Germans. Poles, the
Italians and the other minority
groups which successfully formed
the last wave of immigration to
break on Jul shores, the Cardinal
said.
THE effort is obviously being
made to exploit your just grew
ances in the interest of utterly
anti-C Christian subversive forces,
the prelate declared. THE choice
lies between the opportunities of
freedom in a social order where
Christianity can work and on the
other hand the equalitarianism of
Communist slavery.
THE story of your race should
lead you to answer without hest
tation, We knew slavery and we
are in no mood to go back to it

pie in this country.

pie in this country.
The pattern is that of Hit
Ter. For the Nazis, too, used to
employ hatchet-men for striking
down their victims in cold blood.
They, too. employed terroristic me
thods. saying that in pursuing this
line of conduct they were not vi
olating anybody's civil rights. OF
course not. The Nazis discounted
human rights and felt no obliga-
ton to recognize and respect them
Knowing what Nazism was we ex-
pected that. But knowing what
Americanism is, with its empha-
sis on the sacredness of human
personality, we cannot condone the
violation of human rights in this
country.
In the Georgia lynching stu
alton we are face to face. not with
Americanism but with a type of
NaziSm in the United States. If
the people who are responsible for
the use of Nazi methods in lynch
ing four American citizens in our
Georgia are not brought to justice
if this pattern of terrorism and
murder is not disavowed by the
American people, then there is no
minority group in this Country
which is secure against the same
kind Of injustice to which the Ne
groes in Georgia have been sub
jected.
If we have learned anything
from the experience Of mankind
under Hitlerism it is that injustice
working through terrorism must
be stopped when it first appears.
Had the people of Germany re-
fused to permit persecution of the
Jews they would all have been
spared the experience of persecu-
ton by the Nazi tyranny at a la
ter time.
What happened in Georgia is
not simply the concern of Negroes
The injustice that happened there
is an injustice done to US all. The
human rights Of all must be r
tected and we must all do it.

Silver Spring Stadium
And Athletic Field
Plans Are Approved

The Silver Spring Recreational
Planning Committee has adopted
plans for immediate construction of
an athletic field and stadium for the
Silver Spring area, it was announced
today.
The field would be in Sligo Park
adjacent to the Montgomery Blair
High School. Concrete stands would
be erected to seat between 1000 and
5000 persons.
The plans, drawn by Rhees E.
Burket, an architect, were approved
by H. Stanley Stine of the Mont
gomery County Board of Education
and by E. Brooke Lee and Blair Lee
of the Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission.
They call for a baseball diamond,
football field and a track.
In view of plans to construct a
large. lighted stadium later on the
BulllS-Argyle Club tract recently
purchased by the park commission,
it was decided TO build an unlighted
field by the high school.
The project was described as be-
ing the first step in the Recreation
Planning Committee plan to obtain
adequate recreation facilities for the
Silver Spring area. Swimming pools,
a field house and an auditorium are
other projects, according to DR.. j.
H. Forsyth, committee chairman.
