Filling extra rows of seats placed
on the stage where flowers in tall
baskets added a gala touch. an
audience of untiring enthusiasm
greeted the italian tenor, Ferruccio
ITagliayini and his wife, Fia
Tassinari, soprano, in their flrst
appearance here last night IN Con-
stitution Hall. This was Mr. Taglla-
yini's second recital in this country
his first having been the night De-
fore in Baltimore where ne was
presented. as last night. by Patrick
Hayes. His fame, first earned at
his Metropolitan Opera debut IN
January and furthered by his radio
appearances, brought an audience
eager to hear him and ready with
its .brayos" for nearly everything
he sang.
His is a splendid voice, soft IN
quality and easy in its emission:
He has been acclaimed a second

can rightfully claim place OF ms

endowment. This consists OF

One missed, however, that faculty

human voice. MI. Tagliavin1 mas
habit of emphasizing the emo
tional moment by a soft, white tone
prepared in particularly way ana
which intrudes into the line OF nus
singing too obviously. He Is also
addicted to faIsetto and these TWO
effects constitute the limit OF MS
vocal coloring. In the 20 Paradise
aria from Meyerbeer's "L"Africana
he did his most robust singing
sending forth lusty, well supported
| tones that set the audience ap-
plauding wildly. This brought, as
encore the "E lucevan le stelle'
from Puccini's "Tosca," the first
notes of the unannounced aria being
instantly recognized by his listeners.
The songs interspersed among the
arias, and most of which were sung
in a too rapid tempo, were all famli-
lar such as Rogers "At Parting,
Purcelps Passing By and Giorda-
mis- "Caro mio ben" A French group
included Debussy's La Close,
Weckerlin's "Jeune Fillette" and
Hahn's "L'Heure Exquise." While
the delivery of the songs was pure
| in line and showed the sweet quail
| ity of his voice to the best advan-
tage, he did not avail himself OF
the many opportunities the texts
offered to warm his tones with emo
tional fervor. The gay little Giro
meta" by Gabriel Sibella, an encore,
was sung delightfully."-.
Mime. Tassinari rivalled her hus-
bands success reaching climax
and a long continued ovation after
singing "Io son l'umile ancella" from
Cilea's "Adrianna Lecouvreur. Her
gracious personality and style OF
singing made deep impression and
she proved her inexi1austibie vocal
art first in Monteverdi's 'Lasciatemi
morire" and Och vieni non tardar"
from Mozart's Marriage of Figaro"
and later in "Voi 10 sapete" from

up striking effects and to make ev-

Together, the artists gave the little
scene from Act II of Massenet's
.sManon" which begins with the so-
prano area, sAdieu. notre petite
table" and ends with lie Reve for
tenor. Since Mr.. Tagliavini comes as
a new star on the musical frma-I
ment. it is inevitable that compari-|
sons with other singers will be made.
Richard Crooks has left an unfor-
gettable memory of lie Reve," and
also OF "Una furtiva lagrima1 from
Donizetti's 'L'Elisir d,Amore' which
Mr.. Tagliayini sang earlier, and

Impartial research polls show that, on the aver
age, people think we make 1870. They also think
fair return would be 1920.
What We Make
But for the year 1916, with the biggest peace
time traffic in history, the railroads earned only
..2s49o. This is less than one-half the compa-
rable earnings for other industries.
The reasons for this low return are not hard to
find. Since 1899 railroad wages have increased
52slo%o and the prices of fuel, materials and sup
plies have gone up 61sIoT.
But freight rates have just recently been in
creased an average of only 17Ho9o-a year after
the effective date of the last big wage increase.
What About This Year?
It is estimated that the return for 1947 even with
the recent freight rate increase, will be only about
half the so minimum return required to provide
the improvements and service needed This will
be because of Increased costs of materials and sup
plies; because certain wage increases granted in
1916 were in effect for only part of 1916 but will

be in effect for all Of 1947; because of increased
special payroll taxes on railroads; and because
of decline in passenger business.
What Does This Mean To You?
The answer is "Plenty!' Your standard of living
is the highest in the world because of MASS PRO-
DUCTIoN But mass production would not be pos
sible without MASS TRANSPORTATION, which the
railroads provide at low cost.
Why 6B Is Needed
The kind of service your standard of living re-
quires takes lot of money for new equipment
and improvements To carry out the postwar i'm
provement program for better equipment, tracks,
terminals and modern safety devices minimum
return of so is needed.
So when the railroads make only 23 cents on
Evening star., 1947-04-10

each $1OO of their net property investment, it
concerns you.t
The funds for future new equipment and i'm
provements must come from railroad earnings
and also from investors. They will furnish money
on reasonable terms only if they have confidence
in the future earnings Of the railroads.
You Hare Another Stake In This
Even if you do not own any railroad stocks or
bonds, insurance companies and savings banks
do. So you still have a special interest in seeing
that the railroads are allowed enough to do a
good job -. for you.
We are publishing this and other advertisements
