EMERGENCY END
IS PREDICTED

Continued From Page One)

powers Mr.. Truman will ask to
have extended. Those which would
otherwise expire upon the term
ination Of the emergency - many
Of them already dormant or near
n so include:
The requisitioning Of ships:
Lease of vessels to friendly ma
tions; arrning Of merchant YES
sells; authority to transfer the
Coast Guard to the Navy; pur-
chase Of military supplies by
"streamlined; methods, without
advertising; hiring Of dollar-a.
year men; suspension Of duties on
scrap iron imports; tax-free with
drawal of alcohol from d%istilleries
for industrial use; appointment OF
an Undersecretary of the Navy;
and certain relaxations of ship
manning and operating standards.
Lower dates are pinned to other
emergency statutes: free inporta-
ton privileges for ~servicemen, for
instance, would end six months
after the emergency, as would the
right to sell or lease public lands
for munitions manufacture. War
housing would have to be disposed
Of within two years.
A large number of laws were
written to expire either at the end
of the emergency or the war.
These, government legal officials
hold, should be interpreted as end
ing with the war instead Of the
emergency.
The proposed pattern of decon-
troll for the "emergency'' statutes
will follow generally that used by
the President il his proclamation
ending hostilities on Dec. 81, it
was reported. This wiped out
sorne 50 powers, 20 Of them i'm
mediately - including the author
iW to seize strikebound plants
and 80 others at some later date,
like the high excise taxes on furs
and arnusements which expire
June 80. In some cases, like the
latter one, Mr.. Truman asked Con-
gress to write new legislation re-
placing the old.
In the case Of the ''emergency''
laws, however, the President may
wait for Congress to act before is
suing the proclamation.
Government officials said the
end Ct the wal could be proclaim
cd either by the President or by a
joint resolution of Congress. sign
Cd by the President. They hold
that a concurrent" resolution Of
Congress, not carrying the chief
executives signature, would prob
ably suffice for most statutes but
not all of them.

Ri;qohetto

It used to be said in New Or
leans when the French Opera
House was packing them in that
had many of the singers started
their careers by way of Broadway
instead of Canal street their fame
would long before have been
worldwide. It was not quite clear
because the opera house was in
the French quarter not on Canal
street, but always consoled the
Orleanians who were a sensitive,
people. But it was true to the ex-
tent that the Metropolitan is still
the goal Of ambitious singers and
many who deserve a place in the
Metropolitan company can hope to
arrive not by way of Canal street
but by starting, when the oppor-
tunity comes, in a smaller comp
any.
Wilmingtonians heard such a
prospect" last night in the person
of petite Pine Guida, the Gilda of
the New York Civic Opera Com
pany's performance of Verdi's
Rigoletto. The little diva's Caro-
Nome was something to cherish
for many a long month to come.
And so vas her duet with Basil
Jackson, the beautiful "Piangi,
piangi fanciulla." In range and
tonal purity Miss Guido's voice is
superb. Last night she was in top
form.
Mr.. Jackson, as Rigoletto, is
another eligible for the Metropoli-
tan. It is not only that he pos
sesses a high degree of musician
ship, but dramatic instinct as well.
His performance was truly master
full.
Although the opera is written
around Rigoletto, it would be diff
|ficult to imagine it without a Duke
of Mantua, in which Antonio Fiore
did so we'll last night. He was
particularly fine, if a little hurried,
in the beloved LA Donna e
ODll DOLll OIl llC SId6C o&1o Ia
it's repetitions in the wings.
These three, with Dorothy Dale,
gave a hushed audience tingling
spines in the stirring quartette.
The lateness of the hour pro-
hibits a detailed account of the
performance, but it is impossible
to close without paying tribute to
Henry st. Jean a. the assassin,
Henry Kulkman as Count Monte
rome, and Dorothy Dale as the
Countess Ceprano.
Considering the limitations OF the
stage, the presentation, as such,
was excellent.
Again, the conductor, Frank
Foti, was dynamic and showed
fine musicianship, as at the
lTraviata matinee.
Today's presentation will be
Bizet's Carmen, with the curtain

made plain. In its announcement
that this government proposes, as

Moscow last year rejected three
proposals by this government that
Russia, the United States and

rangements can be concluded at
an early date under which further
economic aid for Hungary will be
forthcoming"
Under the peace treaty, Russian
occupation trocTs in Hungary,
estimated to number so, 900 or
more, are to be withdrawn within
30 days Of final ratification. They
have been reduced in number
from a peak of possibly 1000, 900
at We day. Russia, however, may
retain some forces to guard lines

La. Gravi;ata

There was no diamond horse
shoe, no sidewalk canopy, no line
of taxis Or liveried chauffeurs at
the wheels of private limouzines,
but just a high school assembly
room, with a shallow stage and
minus a sunken orchestra pit.
For all that, great music was
well sung yester day afternoon
when La Traviata was presented.
The %highbrows delight to call La
Traviata lowbrow music because
Of its sweet melodies. If they. per-
chance, happen to be right, which
is not granted, what the world
needs is more of the same low
brow kind of music.
The libretta of La Traviata deals
with a mortal frailty tn a t
probably dates from the institution
of parenthood-the interference OF
a father with the emotional life OF
a son. The story is too well known
to require further explanation here.
1t is mentioned at all only because
the performance of the second act,
in which Germont Pere persuades
Violetta to renounce Alfredo, the
younger Germont, was by far the
high point of the matinee.
Nine. Marie Mangaryan, who
gave a fine Interpretation of the
Violetta role and whose voice is
far above average in its high regis
ter, excelled in this act, which this
reporter inclined to believe chiefly
due to the splendid voice Of Lor-
EMO Ciaafrini, with whom, as the
elder Germont, she shared the act.
If Nine. Mangaryan was at her
best, as we believe she was. in
the first act. aria "Ah! fors e ill.,"
MIR. Cianfrini reached the pinnacle
of his performance in the death
less baratone aria "Di Provena, IL
mar, il suol," in the second act.
Mario Orlando, the casts Alfredo
seemed to be suffering a mild at
tack of flu which is 81 prevalent,
or other throat trouble, but came
through brilliantly in what we
have always liked to call the rec
onciliation duet in the final act.
Although she filled a lesser role
as Violetta's friend, we noted a
splendid timbre in Miss Gerta
Koblitz' occasional bits.
Mr.. Frank Foti conducted with
vigor a d good understanding OF
the opera. It could be wished that
he h d a larger orchestra with
which to demonstrate his affinity
for the nuances in the Verdi score.
