House Unit Indicates
Dissatisfaction With
Air Crash Inquiries

A House appropriations SUBJ
committee has indicated its dis
satisfaction with the conduct of
air accident Investigations by the
Civil Aeronautics Board and the
Civil Aeronautics Authority.
Testimony of hearings made
public today reveals a committee
investigator reported on "confu-
sion" in the early stages of the
inquiry into the crash at National
Airport last November in which a
Bolivian pilot in a P-38 fighter
plane collided with an airliner.
ty-flve persons were killed in
the crash.
Chairman Rooney of the SUBJ
committee suggested there was
duplication between the work of
CAB and CAA at accident scenes.
Hearing Called 'Haphazard.'
He read from the investigator S
report, indicating the staff men,
bers of the two air agencies were
not readily identifiable" at the
accident scene here, that it was
difficult to determine who was in
charge, and that conduct of hear
ings later was "haphazard."
CAA Administrator Delos w.
Rented said both his agency and
CAB had responsibilities in con-
nection with air accidents, but he
insisted duplication was not in
tended. He said the two agencies
co-ordinated their efforts.
In discussion of items for Ma
tional Airport, Representative
Flood, Democrat, of Pennsylvania,
said one of his pet gripes" was
the 10-cent fee charged for ad-
mission to the observation balcony
at the terminal.
II resent it deeply" he said.
".The Government of the United
States. at the only airport run by
the Government, is collecting
dimes from widows and orphans
and the American public who go
to this airport run by Uncle Sam,
and go out on a ramp and ctand
there and look ct the airplanes."
Taxi Service Held Inadequate.
Mr.. Rooney and Representative
Preston, Democrat, of Georgia,
said they considered the taxicab
service at the airport inadequate.
Mr.. Rooney said it was particu-
larly dlstasteful to him to have
to wait in a limousine while the
driver drummed up a load and
then be delayed in reaching his
destination because the car
stopped at a number of points.
Airport Director Eennets M.
Griffin said the limousine con-
cessionaire had added metered
taxicabs to its service - "7 or 10
cabs"
In considering a Public Roads
Bureau request for funds to build
a $1,050,000 overpass to connect
the airport with U. s. Route No.
l, Representative Stefan, Repub-
lican, Of Nebraska, suggested that
Virginia should build it with Fed
eral grant-in-aid funds.
Public Roads officials said Vir-
ginia authorities had declined to
consider this method of financing,
contending other highway prof.
ects in the State had priority.

Symphony Concert Makes History

tions which could seem long
drawn out without his claritica-
ton. This is particularly true of
the first movement, although the
gorgeous character of the orches-
tral writing carries it's own ap-
peal. That the symphony" is full
OF derivatives. and sentiment is
lavishly present. has caused it to
be labeled "old fashioned" But
nothing that Rachmaninoff wrote
could be so classified, for the
strength of his individuality is a
guarantee against it.
1t is soberly styled in the first
movement and dark of hue. But
the lifting measures of the Allegro
motto release the composers spir-
it and lead him to the superb
lyricism of the Adagio. In what
ever vein, the broad brush strokes

rich colors of the orchestral pal

The concert of the National
Symphony Orchestra in Constitu-

Mitchell conducting. will 60 down
In history as the occasion of the
first concert performance of Paul
Creston's Concerto for Piano and
Orchestra" The soloist was Earl
Wild, one of the foremost of young
American pianists. The program
concluded with Rachmaninoff S
Symphony No. 2 in E Minor" a
welcome re-hearing of this deep
s'-felt score.
Creston's Concerto" is a me-
morial to the late Joseph D. NAL
kin and was commissioned by Mrs.
Maxim, who came from New York
to hear the concert premiere. 1t
is a work that should delight
pianists and the public for long
time. Expertly planned for both
solo instrument and for the Or
chestra. it contains all the effects
that intrigue the artist and appeal
to the listener. It's prototype can
be found in all the long Lived
piano concertos and it is not to
Mr.. CreSton's discredit that he
understood what made for their
success and utilized it in his own
way.
The Concerto" abounds with
vitality and so skillfully is it's
progress directed that not a wa
vering moment can be found. It
begins in sweeping fashion that.

line. has a song in it, For the solo
instrument, he has devised the
kind of technical brilliance that
gives joy to the performer. test
ing his finger prowess and his
muSicianship at the same time.
Through the rather dense orches-
trail part run filigree patterns of
great charm on the piano.
Andante Tranquillo.
A rhapsodic theme dominates
the Andante tranquillo and here
there is little let-down in the
sure, forward moving writing.
When the energetic rhythms of
the Presto take over in the final
movement, the spirit and fire re-
turns. The composers explana-
ton in the program notes is "the
feeling of Tarantella" but North
and South American rhythmic in
huences are the most prominent.
The whole work pulses with life
ana requires, in the soloist, the
free. dashing style and complete
technical mastery such as is Mr.
Wlld's gift. This young pianist
can always be counted upon to
give brilliant performance of a
stirring kind. Last night he
showed his poetic gain in the lyric
intervals where his spun tone and
delicate shadings sought full ex-
preston.
The enthusiasm of the audience
acclaimed first the soloist, then
the composer, who had to bow
twice from his box, and last, but
in no lesser degree, Mr.. Mitchell
and his musicians. He shared in
several of the many recalls of Mr.
Wild.

/. Raising the interest rate on
business loans to per cent. 1t
has been 4 per cent for years, al
though the 17-year-old RFC has
charged as much as per cent In
the past.
Q. Instituting a handling fee or
applications. Fees will start at a
minimum Of $40 on applications
for loans of up to $4,000. On
applied-for amounts above that
the charge will be 1s of per cent
Of the amount, up to a maximum
fee of $4,000.
Charge for Idle Funds.
3. Putting a charge on funds
borrowed, but not used for lone
periods. A "a of / per cent charge
will be made on an amount idle
after four months, and an addi.
tional 1s Of per cent for each
additional six-month extension.
4. Requiring banks for which
RFC guarantees a portion Of &
loan to pay a per cent charge
for the service. Up to now. the,

large a proportion of the loar
was guaranteed.
RFC Chairman w. Elmer Har'
Der and Vice Chairman c. Edward
Rowe, in announcing these step
yesterday, told reporters the pur'
pose was to put the multi-billion'
dollar Government agency's bust
ness loan program on "self-sus'
tanning basis"
Mr.. Harber expressed doubt tina
the loan rate boost would als'
serve as a brake on imitation b,

White House Approval Seen.
Asked If the White House had
approved the new policy, Mr.. Har-
ber said he believes it is in har-
mony with President Truman's
program. Mr.. Rowe added:
"The President wants us to run
this place right and that's the way
we're going to do it."

f1rmation.
Without the new cost-cutting
and income hosting policy, Mr..
Harber said. RFC would sustain a
$50 million a year operating loss
on its business loan program
which currently costs about SIC
million a year to, handle.
RFC actually has been making
a profit on lending operations, but
Mr.. Harber said future deficits
loomed because a money making

has been transferred from RFC tt
another agency, and some Of
RIGS most profitable old loans
have been paid off.
Among the latter was a loan tt
