zinski, who was dismissed as con-
ductor of the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra after his first season, was
given a 5-minute standing ovation

day evening series of concerts.
This is my last permanent job"
Mr.. Rodzinski told the cheering
audience. Il am at your disposal
any time you want to call me back.
Give me the tools and I'll finish the
job"
Mr.. Rodzinski's impromptu speech
was his first public comment since
the Chicago Orchestral Association s
statement last January announcing
his dismissal at musical director and
conductor of the orchestra effective
at the end of the season.
His dismissal brought protest
from music lovers and there was a
movement by symphony patrons to
force the associations trustees to
rehire him.
Before Mr.. Rodzinski came to Chi
cago, he was director of the New
York Philharmonic, Cleveland and
Los Angeles orchestras. He had re-
signed in New York in 1947 because
of what he termed direct interfer-
ence" by Arthur Judson, Philhar-

SociaIite's Death on Beach
lis Traced 10 illness
by the Associated Press

MIDDLETOWN, R. l., April 30
A medical examiner has ruled that
Mrs. George Eustis Paine, New York
society woman, died from "immer-
sion, shock and exposure" while suf-
fering from disease which some
times causes mental disturbances
and depression.
Her body was found Tuesday, face
down, on beach about a mile from
her Newport summer home.
DR.. James C. Callahan said in a
statement based on laboratory re-
ports yesterday that the 52-year- -old
matron was found to be suffering
from hemachromatosis, a disease
involving the metabolism of iron in
the body"
"As the disease progresses" the
medical examiner said, mental dis
turbances and depression sometimes
occur, which would account for Mrs.
Paine's disappearance from home
and her wanderings into the water
of the beach"
Mrs. Paine was reported missing
Monday by her husband, a member
of the Board of Directors of the
Curtis Publishing Co., after she
failed to keep an appointment with
him in New York. She had been
with him earlier in the day.

Eaton Demands Senate
Scrutiny Of Kaiser
Stock Registration
BY the As.ociutsd Press

CLEVELAND, April 80. - Cyrus
Eaton, board chairman of Otis &
Co., called today for a close sena-
torial scrutiny into "the truth" Of
Ia stock registration statement filed
by Kaiser-Frazer Co.
Answering accusations made by
Henry Kaiser in a letter to Senator
Tobey, Republican, of New Hamp-
shire yesterday regarding Otis
withdrawal from an agreement to
sell S10000,000 of the motor COM
pany's stock, Mr.. Eaton said in
statement:
Mr.. Kaiser's wild charges all
evade the hard fact that If Otis &
Co. had yielded to his insistence on
continuing the offering, the invest
ing public would have been VIC
timized."
Mr.. Kaiser asked the Senate
Banking Committee to find out who
was telling the truth and who wasn't
in his feud with Mr.. Eaton's firm.
To this, Mr.. Eaton said:
II observe that Henry Kaiser has
dSIccu W answer questions II the
Senate orders an investigation into
the recently attempted KAISER
Frazer financing.
Its about time some one asked
Mr.. Kaiser some pertinent questions.
1 sincerely hope the Senate will
do so.
Otis & Co. asked the Securities
and Exchange Commission to en-
large its investigation so as to in
quire into Kaiser -Frazers market
operations just before the stock
offering and into the truth of the
registration statement which KAISER
Frazer filed.
THE commission refused. Instead,
it has wasted its time and the tax
payers money in a futile effort to
support Mr.. Kaiser's lawsuit.
Kaiser Frazer has filed $7,700,-
600 breach of contract suit against
Otis & Co. in connection with the
stock sale withdrawal Otis last week
end filed a counter suit against the
motor company.
