Melvin Ritter Gives
Violin Recital at
Phillips Gallery
By Eleno de Soyn

Melvin Ritter, a Cleveland violin
ist, duplicated his former success
here yesterday, when he played a
recital in the Phillips Gallery. Since
heard in the National Gallery of
Art in June, he has gained in ease
and confidence and, If possible has
acquired more technique. Such
pieces as Ysaye's Sonata No. 3, in
D Minor" and Ernst's fashioned
"Fantasie," based on themes from
Rossini's "Otello," both calling for
an accomplished virtuoso, were mere
trifies to him. Yet his technical
gain has detracted somewhat from
his previous excellence as an inter-
prefer.
His first test came in Tartini's
Sonata in G Minor" which opened
the recital. Although known as the
Devils Trill" the composition does
not suggest anything supernatural.
Had it not been for Fritz Kreisler,
whose edition Mr.. Ritter used, and
who lent demoniac touch to the
piece by means of a stunning
cadenza, the work could be classed
as misnomer. Kreisler creates an
ingenious effect Of satanic laughter
by the aid of trilled double stops and
chords which by far surpass in effect
the rather tame chain of trills
Tartini ascribed to a special inspira-
ton. These call for a solid equip
ment which Mr.. Ritter possesses to
a marked degree and helped to Offset
the too plaintive character he gave
to the introduction.
Yet to show the full extent OF his
ability, he turned to other works
Ysaye's six sonatas for violin alone
Of which the violinist presented one
are in different bracket. The
composer dedicated each to friends,
all of whom are leading violinists
today: Szigeti, Thibaud, Enesco
Quiroga and Kreisler. They repre-
sent beautiful numbers which should
grace modern concert programs
Some are written in a classical style
others have such fancy titles as
"Obsession," Dawn" FURY" OF
"Ballade," the title given the sonata
played by Mr.. Ritter.
Together with Shapiro's Lady
and Clown" premiered yesterday
also Szymanowski's "Notturno," the
sonata formed the most exciting and
interesting part of the violinist' S
performance. Scintillating passage
work, delicacy combined with bra
vura and rhythmic vigor showed the
artists talent and natural ability.
Nevertheless, with so much to
offer, not all that Mr.. Ritter gave
yesterday was entirely satisfying
His tone did not seem to possess the
former abundance OF color. He
played forte or piano, nothing in
between. His loud passages were
very lovely, the soft ones lacked
resonance or character. Franck's
Sonata in A Major" suffered most
from this treatment. Mr.. Ritter's
tone took on often a sweet, effemi-
nate timber, not in keeping with the
general scope Of the work. The
excellent support given him by
Harry Kondaks at the piano carried
always the dramatic element which
permeates the work and helped to
eounteract any deficiency ON the

AMee's Denunciation

the Labor government today in the
wake Of Prime Minister Attlee's
weekend denunciation OF COM
munissn rs . new form Of i'm
periAhsm" threatening the rest of
Europe.
Ths Daily worker spearheaded
the attack with . front-page edi-
torial entitled His Marshall'sI
Voice" in which 1t assented that
"Attlee was earning his govern
ment's share Of Marshall dollars"
Democracy In Britain under
Attlee Is coming to mean an ever
closer cooperation between gov
ernment and monopolies =" the
Communist organ said.
Charges Attempt to Deceive.
Behind his slogan Of resistance
TO Red imperialism, Attlee in
Britain - like Blum in France - is
deceiving the people and seeing to
line them up in the American drive
to restore capitalism in Europe"
Arthur Horner, Communist gen.
eral secretary Of the National Union
Of Mine Workers, assailed Mr..
Attlee's call for a middle of the
road" policy for Britain, declaring
there is only one way to improve
the standard of life of the people
and that is by q planned socialist
economy-not a capitalist anarchy"
Harry Pollitt, Communist Party
secretary, replied to . campaign
begun two weeks ago by Morgan
Phillips, Labor Party general Sec
retary, to oust Communists from
their controlling positions In some
British labor unions.
Calls For Mass Struggle.
In . statement in the Laborite
Daily Herald, which also contained
1 statement by Mr.. Phillips, Mr..
Pollitt said: "A mass struggle Of
the united left can save Britain
from q return to Toryism =, win
new members to the ranks Of labor,
preserve it from Wall Streets DOM
nation, lead to increased production
and make Britain . decisive force
for world peace"
Mr.. Phillips replied:
ut is clear from Mr.. Pollitt's
article that the Communist Party is
determined to do all in its power
to weaken and undermine the au-
thoaitv and influence of Britain'S
Labor government"
The conservative Daily Mail said:
Mr.. Attlee should remember two
things: First, it was British free
enterprise which defeated the as
sault Of the collectivist Nazi state.
Second, 1t is only American free
enterprise that has the power to
roll back the menace Of the collec-
Twist Communist state Of Russia.

Anne Mayran, French
Pianist, Gives Recital
Rx EIena de Soyn

|. The Felicia Rybier Music Clut
held one of its public recitals last
night at the Arts Club, presenting
Anne Mayran, French pianist, ip Q
program of standard compositions
A resident Of Canada for several
years, she has given concerts there
and in her native France where
she appeared professionally after
completing her studies with Isadore
Philipp and Mime. Moritz Rosenthal
The fine schooling Miss Mayran
enjoyed early in life could be in
stantly sensed in the attention she
paid to gradation and infection Of
tone and in her strict adherence
to the printed expression marks in
the text. The advantage of such
a training inevitably irlstills dis
cipline that in time becomes second
nature and is on call under often
trying circumstances. Thus the ma
tural excitement that might have
resulted from her late arrival from
New York, delaying the concert
past the scheduled hour, was not
reflected in her playing of her first
number, Phillip E. Bach's Sonata
in A Minor"
Her approach was aesthetic and
notable for quality of touch, variety
and tonal control. Two sonatas OF
the 17th century, composed by the
Spanish monk, Padre Antonio
Soler, organist and chamber music
performer at the Escurial, did not
offer as much musically, but were
interesting, being less familiar.

A 725-acre water front tract on
Chesapeake Bay has become the
focal point of Maryland's two-year
dispute over the proposed Sandy
Point Naval Academy Airport.
Maryland now has a 60-day option
on the acreage and State surveyors
are inspecting it for development as
a park.
But the Navy also has a Congress-
approved plan to take over the same
area for construction of the airport
All that is lacking is the necessary
$12O00000 appropriation.
The park project is the proposal
of William H. Labrot. wealthy land
owner, who has offered to make a
gift OF more than half the park
acreage to the State. For the re-
msining 1926 acres he would charge
100000.
Has Mile and a Half of Beach.
Mr.. Labrot wants the tract devel-
oped by the best talent available
into Maryland's foremost recreation
area.
Features suitable for such develop
ment include a mile and a half OF
beach, two large lakes. one of which
Mr.. Labrot suggests dredging as q
harbor for small boats. Adjacent
marshes could be filled in to provide
parking lots, according to his plan
The bulk of the area consists OF
undeveloped woodland and cleared
fields. On the property, formerly
the Bay Side Stock Farm. are the
Sandy Point Manor House. built in
1876, and two large horse barns
still in use by Mr. Labrot.
