The worsening international STU

military training greater now than
ever, Senator Quincy, Republican,

AS chairman of the Armed Serv-

newsmen he will summon the group
for an informal meeting next week
to consider whether the Training bill
should be studied during the special

By Alice Eyersmon

In the gradual rounding out Of the
concert season, the series presented
by Dorothy Hodgkin Dorsey In Con-
stitution Hall ended last night with
the appearance Of Eleanor Steber.
soprano OF the Metropolitan Opera.
Accompanied at the piano by James
Quillian, Miss Steber sang q recital
generously springled with arias and
which was prolonged by encores dur
ing and at the end of the program.
The artist is young, beautiful and
blessed with a lovely voice. SO that
the combination was something not
often met with during season.
Miss Steber's voice is lovely in an
entirely individual way. It holds a
caress in it and this moving quality
is natural. The tones are pearl like
in their purity and sheen and her
easy emission of them is a pleasure
to hear. AL the mechanical forces of
her art operate with the utmost
smoothness, for she has splendid
control Of the breath, free and
clear enunciation and a sure vocal
placement. The line of q phrase is
spun with grace and musically she
has a fine instinct for style.
All these attributes, identifying her
as one Of the best trained and finest
endowed singers to come from the
Metropolitan Opera, were to be ap-
preciated in her meZZo voce singing.
She must have been aware of this fol-
she used 1t through most Of the pro-
gram with fine effect. Her softly
touched high tones were clear as
bells and, colored as they are by a
special warmth and expressiveness,
were exquisite vocal sounds.
Yet, strangely, when the voice is
used in its full power. this excep-
tional vocal set-up disappears. The
tones spread, the quality is less
pleasant and there is a tendency to
shrillness. Side by side with a BEAU
tiful tone, as in the high B fiat In
the "Vissi d'arte" aria from 'Tosca, u
the next note will change complete
ly. Whenever dramatic pressure is
eXerted, there is loss of balance,
seemingly so unnecessary in one SO
excellently schooled.
The contrast was marked in the
two Mozart arias with which she
began the program. The Och vieni
non tardar" from lie Nozze di Fig
aro" was exquisite in every detail.
while in mon mi dir, belp idol mio'
from Don Giovanni" there was 9
noticeable change of quality, all the
more striking when followed by he,
eloquent singing of Mendelssohn'
"Auf Fluegeln DIES Gesanges," as en-.
core There was, again, the superb
delivery of "Depuis lie jour" from
Charpentier's Louise" and the less
ingratiating singing of "Ernani In
yolami" from Verdi's ''Ernani."
The unforgetable moments in the
program were many however. The
rather worn-out song, Isl mes vers
avaient des allies" by Reynalde
Hahn, was one of these and Debus-
sy's LA Chevelure" and Strauss
"Freundliche Vision" were others.
The hushed, emotionally glowing
tones were rarely beautiful. Miss

they could evaluate the working

"Batlonim" they were often
called; for it seemed that these
men were impractical, remote
from practical affairs, engaged
in the academic and theoretical.
Actually, they had their eye and
mind constantly on their COM

derive the principles which other
generations had found wise and
wholesome, and to understand the
problems that others faced in or
der to deal more understandingly
with the problems with which the
community had to grapple.
Yes, the old SIlas class in the
synagOgues was nOurishing and
sustaining the daily life of the
community. They faced issues;
they took collective judgment and
experience! they recognized what
was at stake and knew the stern
necessity of wise common action;
they pooled their knowledge and
abilities; they contributed to the
health and safety of the whole
community. They were the Brain

and cOllated and evolved and
framed the thinking drawn from
