CANADA GETS WARMER

CALGARY, (P) - One of the worlds sloWest-action "thermome- terS" has indicated that the Cana dian climate, in western Canada at lease, has been milder than normal. The thermometer is a number of glaciers in the Canadi- an Rockies and readings" have taken by survey parties, armed with transits.
 w. T. MacFarlane, Calgary civil engineer, said after the recent sur vey that the rate of recession of fiv Alberta glacirs sine 1945 has averaged 100 feet a year. Mea- Surement of the movement of the glaciers was started by the Cana dian government in 1945. McFar- lane said there is no indication, however, that the glaciers will continue to recede. Geologists have reported that glaciers in other parts of the world have made periodic advances and re- treats with changes in climate. Each cycle is said to last about 35 years.

Senator Morse
 Blames Steel For StrikeCOntinuance

WASHINGTON, (P) - Senator Morse R.-Ore) today blamed the big steel companies for failure to settle the industry -Strangling steel strike.
 With negotiations deadlocked in both the steel walkout and the equally important coal strike-and the nations industry showing the effects-Morse called on steel pro- ducerS to grant the 10-cent welfare package proposed by President Truman's fact-finding board.
 Tn major steel companies have expressed willingness to put a penSion-insurance plan into effect, but only if the workers contribute to it.
 Federal mediation chief Cyrus Ching. calling three more steel firms into peace talks starting in Washington, reported no "tangi- ble evidence" of progress toward ending the strike.
 Similar reports came from coal talks. as negotiatorS put off fur there discussions unti Tomorrow. Meanwhile, government reports showed output shrinking and lay offs rising in the industries which feed on coal and steel.
 Morse, a member of the Senate labor committee, told a reporter:
 'United States Steel corporation must be blamed with major re- sponsibility for the economic dam age being done to the country.
 "The American people should tell Mir. Hairless Benjamin F. Hairless, president of U. s. SteeD and other steel industry leaders to start placing the public interest before their own blind stubborn ness"
 The Republican Senator declar- ed it most regrettable that the steel companies do not put the fact-finding boards recommenda- ton into effect"

Own Compositions
Heard in Recital
By Nine. Victor
By Elena de Soyn

Inclement weather apparently did
not influence the size Of the audi
ence which assembled to hear the
violin and piano recital given by
Alba Rosa Victor and Ramon Con-
zalez in the Department of Interior
Auditorium last hight. The artists
were presented by the Club de las
Americas and were assisted by Mer-
cedes Flores, vocalist, who closed the
program with a group of Latin
American songs to her own accom-
paniment on thes guitar.
This is not the first time that
Mime. Victor has given recital OF
her own compositions. Several years
ago she introduced works in various
forms, while her songs and violin
numbers were performed on other
occasions.
Last nights program listed a
violin and piano sonata, two shorter
selections for violin with piano
accompaniment, and a sonata for
piano. All these were composed be-
tween 1920 and 1948. The graceful
lines of the "Canzonetta," her first
effort, we're contrasted by a vigor-
ous Indian Dance" written in
1924. Both are couched in an idiom
easily assimilated. Her Indian
Dance" is not only true to its native
character but shows also Nine
Vietors special talent for good part
writing. Here the violin and the
piano seem to be compressed into a
perfect whole.
With the exception of the "Adagio
Dramatico." from the violin sonata,
and of some sections in that for
the piano, not everything heard left
the impression of belonging tor
gether or of continuity of. ideas.
A lovely, songful melody on the
G string, the adagio has distinc-
ton and could grace any program,
as a separate piece. It rests on a
broad foundation, expands naturally
and is imbued with sincerity, while
the two instruments balance and
complement each other.
The first part of the work suffers
somewhat from the distribution Of
registers, that of the piano being
too low in pitch for the high
tension of the violin. This may .oe
said also CT the others, but the
composers true gift of melody and
Imagination makes her compositions
interesting. These are her greatest
assets and should be cultivated and
developed with the space and
breadth they call for. AS violin
list. Nine. Victor is a fine executant
whose tone can sing.
The piano sonata. composed last
year, would be more effective If its
wealth of ideas could be amplified
in development. 1t was given an
excellent performance by Mr.. Con-
zalez, a South American vituoso-
pianist, at present connected with
the Columbia School of Music. The
work offered him many opportu-
mites to assert himself and to show
his crisp, facile technique and lovely
touch. His accomplishment served
him in good stead in difficult and
exacting, parts of the work and
his musicianship in the molding
of phrases. He captured the right
mood already in the opening
measures of each of the four move
ments of the composition. At times,
q need was felt for greater con-
trasts in the use of tone color and
for more animation. Otherwise his
performance was Of a high order.
The audience was generous in its
appreciation.

When Politics Were
Born

In a political year, when a close
race looms for state, even if not for
national officers, the forgotten story
of how politics first sprouted in Ohio
might be most interesting.
In 1900 there were no such things
as political parties in Ohio and the
settlers were concerned mainly with
their own struggle for land, protec-
tion against te Indians and where to
get something to eat. Ohio then was
the Northwest Territory and included
Indiana.
However, by 1902 there We're
1900 persons living in the territory
and many of them believed that it
should become state. Almost as
many others thought the people
there not yet were ready for state
hood. 1t was not political division
just matter OF divided opinion
which cropped up here and there
