affords more opportunities for di-

There was orchestral playing in
Constitution Hall last night OF a
very special kind from the OrcheS-
ire National de France, under the
direction of Charles Muench, which
stopped in Washington on its good
will tour of the United States. With
the intention of increasing a cultural
understanding between the two
countries, the Orchestre comes
under the sponsorship of the French
government and the patronage OF
the French Ambassador, Henri
Bonnet. Official Washington and
those with some tie with France,
as well as those interested from q
purely musical angle, made up an
audience that filled the hall and
gave the visitors a most enthusiastic
welcome.
1t was q concert of fire and
sparkle. Mr.. Muench is a dynamic
conductor who, while holding his
players authoritively to his interpre-
tive ideas, can infuse them with his
own inspirational force. The group
is magnificently. trained with a re-
markable uniformity in style. This
pervaded even the bows OF the
string players, which were exactly
alike in the distribution of the use
of the stick. In complete conform
ity also were the beginnings and the
endings of phrases, the amount and
quality of dynamics and every point
of musical establishment. In its
mechanical harmony alone, the
French orchestra can serve as an
example to symphonic ensembles IN
this country.
The combined tonal' quality Is
also of a particular kind Less
richly sonorous than that of Amer
lean groups, it excells in clarity ana
finesse. The glory of the ensemble
Is the woodwinds. Such suavlty as
theirs is a delight to hear. Beau
tifullv mellow at all times, the
sounds produced by the artist play
ers were ravishing in their lowell
ness. and in the Intervening OF the
different instruments, the effect was
superb. Next in excellence was the

clear tone held an exciting quality.
The strings are less notable for
there is not enough high brilliance,
in the violins especially, to out
shine and balance the superiority
of the other choirs. =.
The all-French program seemed
TO be designed to show of the
woodwinds, for each number had
prominent portions for them. 1t
started off with an electric per-
formance of the Overture to Ber-
uoz's lie Corsaire" A f1ashy work
in itself, it served to demonstrate
at once the virtuosity Of the Or
chestra members. Such brilliant,
speedy playing has seldom been
heard from so many performers
simultaneously or with such un-
swerving accuracy. The slower pas

that commands attention. The
'Toccata," which Mr.. Muench re-
quested Walter Piston to write and
which the Orchestra plays for the
first time on this tour, takes into
account also the flneness of the
woodwinds and exploits them to
the fullest. It is a mastery work,
one of the best to come from the
American composers pen, and the
incisive style of the French players
with their clean definition of the
harmonic intricacies, suited the
work particularly well.
The concert ended with the Sec

ond "Daphnis ct Chloe" suite by
Ravel. Enthusiasm ran high
throughout the entire program and
the conductor was recalled again
and again. The visit of the Orches-
ire National will be very enlighten-
ing to the musical public of this
country and will certainly accom-
plish its mission Of sympathetic
understanding through music.

one Of the unforgettable moments Of
the evening.
Roussel's "Bacchus ct Ariane" has
ben singularly overlooked by our
conductors. It is dramatic music,
full blooded and of sweeping opu-
lence, that once more disclosed the
co-ordinated excellence of the en-
semble. Although weighted with
tone, that at times was noisy as
played last night, there is present
an aristocratic quality in the music

From Drift
Toward Mastery
By Nj. HI. Hedges

Concealed somewhere in the subterranean
belly of this great nation, new forces are at
play. Occasionally these forces leap to the sur
face and we catch indistinct glimpses of them,
and yet indistinct though they are, we can
trace outlines which cast their light before u.s.
There is new spirit in labor. This col
umnist refers to the new spirit of unity which
is abroad. Labor is not talking about unity,
labor is drawing closer together.
Witness the spirited ADA convention con-
cluded last week in Philadelphia. Here was
meeting of profound significance held in
city of stored interest, the citadel of American
tradition The meeting was in the best tra-
dition of American liberalism wholly untoucf@

from the same platform.
While ADA was making history in Phila-
delphia, the American Labor Education Ser
vice was holding its annual Washingtons
Birthday conference in New York. One-hun-

gravely discussed grave problems. The spirit
of this education conference, like that OF the
ADA in Philadelphia, was the spirit OF already
attained unity. No lines between labor inter-
ests were present or warked. No poltlcs was
played.

Labor Report
BY Bradford V. Carter,
LPA COlunnist

Everybody his own election
forecaster," is our motto for
the week. So, in this column
we are not going to tell you
how the 1948 presidential elec-
tionS are going to come out,
but we are going to try to out
line the factors which will af-
feet the outcome of the elec-
ton.
The most important element
which will influence election
results will be the general
state of economic activity. The
historians of elections returns
point out that a change in the
political complexion of the
presidency has come most often
when business collapsed during
the administration of a partic-
ular president. In our own
generation the most striking
example is FDR's victory over
Herbert Hoover.
If the recession in the COM
modify market is the forerun-
ner OF a general business de-
president of the United States
mentary decline, then history
might indicate that the next
pesident of the United States
will not be a member of the
Democratic Party. The eco
nomic analysts here in WASH
ington think, however, that the
prospects of full-blown de-
preston by 1948 election day
will not materialize.
INFLUENCES
There are economic develop
ments short of a major depTes-
sion which will undoubtedly
influence election returns; to
wit, prices and housing. We
need not be detained here by
whether conclusions are justi-
fled or not, but the scientific
feelers of the public pulse tell
us that high prices and the
housing shortage are associated
with the Republicans.
What this means is that if
there is no improvement in
housing and no end to the ris-
ing cost of living, the Republi-
cans will have to bear respon.
sibility for this state of affairs
on election day. If on the other
hand there is a change for the
better, the Republicans will be
able to say that their efforts in
m ding government control
caused these good works.
Foreign affairs should be
given some weight in the laun-
dry list of factors affecting the
outcome of the '48 elections.
1t is clear at once that if our
relations with Russia should
become critical, it would tend
to rally popular support around
the President. Our foreign pol
icy, it is true, has been a BIZ
partisan one but it has been
popularity identified with Cen
eral Marshall and therefore the
Democratic administration.
The problem of Palestine is
another element in the foreign
affairs phase of the elections.
And there the impact for or
against the administration is
not so clear.
THREATS
AT this time the southern
Democrats are threatening TO
disaffiliate from the national
Democratic party because of
the Truman stand on civil
rights issues. The elections i'm
plicationS of this are not too
clear either. One can say, how.
ever, that the southern Demo
Gratis secession movement
should be tempered by the ira
ditional reliance of this group
on the patronage available to
the national Democratic Party.
Remember that the southern
Democrats who broke the fold
when Al Smith ran for Presi-
dent in 1923 did not fare too
well subsequently in southern
politics.
Finally, the element of pre-
sonalities should be taken into

Naturally, western European countries want to avoid war. So does the United States. But if there is any lesson they should have learned from World War II it is that a policy of appeasement only makes war inevitable. Unless they are blind, France, Britain. the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg must see their inde- pendence, integrity, institutions and future as free peoples are 7oored, if Russian aggression is not halted in Ber..l.
