Chief Orme insisted last night
he had not violated any rule rr
regulation, nor had he failed to
carry out any directive of the
council or the county manager.
He said Mr.. McNayr'S action
came as a surprise to him. He
added Mr.. McNayr had never ex-
pressed any dissatisfaction with
his work.
Thomas c. Kelley. acting coun-
Gil president, said he assumed"
Mr.. McNayr would present his ie-
quest for the police chiefs dis
missal at the opening OF the
council meeting at 2 pm. Tues
day. He refused to comment on
the suspension order, however.
Another council member. DR..
Lewis Merriam. said he heard OF
previous disagreements between
Mr.. McNayr and Chief Orme, but
refused further comment. The
five other council members could
not be reached.
Order Put on Teletypes.
Formal notification Of Mr.. Nc
Nayr's suspension order was con-
tanned in a police teletype message
flashed to police stations at Rock
vile, Bethesda and Silver Spring
shortly after / pm. It was effective
as of noon yesterday. In the or
der, Mr.. McNayr designated In
spector McAuliffe as acting chief
pending a final decision by the
council.
About an hour later the Mont
gomery County Press Association.
when notified of the order at its
meeting. adopted resolution "de-
ploring" the action. The group
asked that the council hold a
public hearing on the McNayr re-
quest and designated committee
of three members to attend. They
are Joseph Matthias. Joseph Brech-
ner and Roger Brooke Farquhar
In the interview which led to
his suspension, Chief Orme said
experience has proved two men
are better than one in police cars,
particularly in cases involving
physical violence.
He emphasized, however, that
he desired to give the plan fair
trial"
Chief Orme, who is 81 and lives
in Gaithersburg, has been paid
$4,000 year. He was formally re-
appointed chief about four months
ago by Mr.. McNayr and the coun-
Gil to stop widely circulated rumors
that he was about to be ousted or
planned to resign.
Mr.. Orme has served twice as
police chief. His first appoint
ment to the Office was made in
February, 1899. Before that. he
had had 10 years of duty in the
county sheriff's Office.
In June, 1910, he was dismissed
by the then Board OF County
Commissioners after complaints
were received that he failed to
prevent a Rockville crowd from
trying to force members Of the
Jehovah's Witnesses to salute the
flag.
The angry mob had broken
into the interior of the sect'S
headquarters in Rockville. Mr..
Orme was reported to have been
at his home at the time and the
crowd dispersed before he arrived.
He said police had not intervened
In spite of orders he had given
them to be on the alert for the
trouble.
Between 1910 and 1916, he was
employed as a special officer with
the Potomac Electric Power Co.
and as an inspector for the Briggs
Clarifier Co., Bethesda.
Inspector McAuliffe, a., who a
few weeks ago was named assis-
tant police chief at night, is vet
eran of 20 years with the depart
ment. He rose through the ranks
from private to chief Of detectives.
He is a graduate of the FBI
School and lives In Friendship

success of the recital by her ac-
compartments.

stranger to this city. gave q piano
recital last night as the Sunday
program In the National Gallery
of Art. Except for Bartok's cycle
Of five pieces. Out Of Doors" :"
which concluded the recital. his
selections were taken from the
standard repertoire. Two Of the
Bartok numbers. Nights Music
and THE Chase" were played by
Mr.. Hambro at a former appear
ance in the Gallery. Before be-
ginning the first three, With
Drums and Pipes" "Barcarolle
and "Musettes," he told the audi
ence he would play them from
music as they were intricate and
he wished his listeners to hear
them as well done as possible.
AS always. when music is used
the effect is not the same. The
most that could be gathered was
that the three pieces contained
the same kind of imI IN
as the pianist was able to under
score in Nights Music" and The
Chase" which he played from
memory. At best this is music
difficult to assimilate at one hear
ing unless the artist himself has
definite ideas about it and is able
to convey them. This was not the
case last night.
The splendid technical powers
that made an impression at Mr..
Hambro's local debut were In evi-
dence throughout the program. In
addition the artist has a special
ability to bring out the polyphonic
voices and this proved TO be the
most interesting element OF his
performance aside from its me-
chanical skill. AS yet Mr.. Hambro
brings little play of imagination
to his Interpretation and its lack

The comely young Negro So
prano. Mattiwilda Dobbs. in her
local debut in q recital In the
Phillips Gallery yesterday, made a
deep impression with her sing
ing. She has one of those fine.
natural voices, somewhat rare to
hear today. and the impulse for
using it to expressive ends. It is
of lyric quality with strong ten
dency toward a coloratura and at
this moment in her development.
It could be concentrated in either
direction with success.
Strangely enough. the usual
warm, ull-throated quality that
belongs to her race is not so ap-
parent In her timbre or has not
been permitted to form the basis
of her singing. That it could be
brought out with far greater re-
suits was evident from time to
time when especially lovely tones
and a beautiful free emission Of
them were heard. These came
principally in the softer passages
where the young singer showed
an exceptional understanding Of
how to produce a lovely pianis-
simo.
At other times the voice had
an edge to it that bordered on
shrillness. 1t was this element
that seemed incongruous with
the quality heard occasionally
and which seemed to indicate an
other direction in development.
Her coloratura possibilities were
to be judged In the aria from
Mozart's The Abduction From
the Seragiio." where her bravura
work was fleet and the high notes
easily attained. In fact. her voice
mounts to the high tessitura as
open-throatedly as bird and in
this facility is sensed again in
the brilliant potentialities she
possesses if coupled with a
WdfAci dilu uAolC AOuIioCd eoic'
The required sensitivity in in
depreciation Is hers already. Three
Schubert songs, "Heidenroeslein."
I" "Jaegers Abendlied" and "Gott i'm
Fruehling." had feeling for the
text although the German enunci-
alton was not always fluent. The
interesting group of English songs
called for delicacy of treatment
and in these as also Carey's
"Flocks Are Sporting" and Grieg's
THE Primrose" she showed ap.l-
tude for color infection.

So ARMY
PROJECTS
GIVEN OK

WASHINGTON, July 16.-tR-
Fifty-nine army construction pro-
poets totaling $136,538,40 have
been approved tentatively by the
House Armed Services committee.
The committee okayed most of
the Army's secion of a 100000, 900
military public works bill. The
Navy projects will be considered to-
morrow and the Air Force plans
next week.
Chairman Vinson (D-Ga) said he
hoped the committee would give
final approval of the entire bill
by Wednesday.
The committee accepted today
all the Army projects without
change except $14,529,0 900 for secret
special weapons Improvements.
That item will be considered later
behind closed doors.
About half the Army construc-
ton would be for new permanent
homes at military posts. They
would cost an average of $4,000
each. Because of higher costs in
Alaska, Okinawa and other points,
the committee agreed to lift the
cost limit for houses to be built
outside the continental United
States.
Maj. Gen. Lewis Peck, chief of
Army Engineers, said it would cost
more than $4,000 to build at Fort
Richardson, Alaska, near Anchor
age, a house a little smaller than
those built for an average CT
$4,000 in the states.
Aside from housing, the Army
section of the bill provides for i'm
proving various stations specialize
ing on highly secret work like de-
velopment of Pathological and bio
logical warfare, rockets and guided
missiles.
