By Alice Eyersmon n

For the final concert Of the
spring season in the Library of
Congress, the Budapest String
Quartet was Joined last night by
the eminent pianist, Clifford Cur
zon. The artistry of the British
pianist has been well established
in the public's estimation through
his solo recitals, but this was the
first opportunity to hear him as
an ensemble player. He succeeded
as he has done in his recitals. in
giving an entirely new perspec-
tive of this branch of music.
For this program. which con-
cludes the first half of the year
in which the Library celebrates its
150th anniversary and the Whit
tall Foundation, under whose
auspices the concert was given. its
18th anniversary. was selected
Mozart's piano Quartet in G
Minor" Brahms Quintet in r
Minor" and Dvorak's Quintet in
A Major"
In these three works, which have
in common rare melodic themes,
the styles of the composers put
on them the stamp of their in
dividuality. 1t was this that Mr..
Curzon captured so superbly and
kept uppermost. even when the
opportunity offered for the piano
to shine strongly in it's own right.
The artist made the piano one
of the group in the complete
sense. achieving wonderful
blending of the tone with that of

the strings. The subtlety Of his ef-
fects was timed to fit in with
those of the Budapest players
whose refinement in such matters
is well known. Throughout the
program there was the feeling
that here was performance more
delicately balanced. more intro
spective and more declamatory in
details than is often attained.
No finer reading of the Mozart
has been heard. Where the piano
tone could easily destroy the
values of the music, Mr. Curzon
kept the volume as closely to the
quality of the instrument of Mo-
zart's time as possible. A less
understanding musician would
have been led to greater force by
the richness of material given it
in the Quartet. Even when COM
ing into prominence, Mr.. Curzon
took note of the degree of VOL
ume needed as he took note OF
the many occasions for the exqui-
site fashioning of phrase.
In Brahms monumental Quin-
tet, he sought to make evident,
amidst its bold design. the under
lying sentiment often expressed
with surprising gentleness. In
the frequent dialogues between
the instruments, the infections,
though many times slight. were
powerful in their artistic meaning.
If some have envisioned this work
with greater sweep, it was the
poetry and profundity of the read
ing and the manner of its express
sion that made it exceptional. Its
superiority was shown in the COM
plete accord of the five musicians
in the fashioning of a multitude
Of small effects.
The playing Of the Budapest
four was inspired. Occasionally
the violin tone failed in maintain
ing perfect pitch. but this was
by the time the Dvorak
Quintet was reached. In the
"Dumka" movement especially,
the eloquence Of the instruments
was unanimous. They sang the
abundant melodies with expansive
beauty and matched the pellu-
cidity of Mr.. Curzon's tone, in the
runs of the Allegro in particular,
with like clarity. The artists had
an overwhelming success. Cheers
and braves punctuated the ap-
plause, and the musicians were
brought back again and again.
1t was a triumphant finale to the
season.

Small Loan Firm Charged
with Interest Law Evasion

A small loan company here has
been ordered to answer in Munich
pal Court a complaint that it had
no license to charge more than
g per cent interest on a secured
loan.

by Assistant Corporation Counsel
Clark F. King. gives the Columbia
Credit Company. 1921 Fourteenth
street NV. until May 10 to reply
to the charge.
Mr.. King said the action was one
of the first of its kind against a
small loan company.
He said the District Government
has been hampered in its prosecu-
ton of any alleged over-charges
by loan companies because of anti
quated District laws regulating
such companies.
According to Mr.. King, the
company loaned Samuel w. But
Ter. an undertaken with an Office
at % H street NV, $1,000, for
which he agreed to repay $1,440
over an 18-month period. This
amount was alleged to have in
cluded insurance.
Mr.. Butler secured this loan
with a car, which he purchased
independently. Mr.. King said.
Under the law, Mr.. King said.

company makes secured loans at
rates greater than 6 per cent.
The Columbia company led the
recent attack which temporarily.

Steady to slightly higher
prices are probable in the next two
or three months Stocks of domestic
woods are steadily dwindling, pros
poets are favorable for maintaining
recent increases in mill utilization
and declining world supplies prob
ably will maintain strength in for
eign market.
WHEAT-Prices probably will
weaken moderately in midwinter.
A rise later on to new high levels
for the season will depend on inn
provement in exports which con-
tinue to lag behind the expected
volume.
With new income tax year start
ing, sales by producers are likely to
pick up slightly, especially in areas
where prices are up to or above the
loan value.
Up to Nov. 80, farmers had placed
295,000,000 bushels under loan or
purchase agreement. If exports in
crease in the remainder of the sea-
son, prices may have to rise enough
to draw some wheat out of the sup
port program.
FLAXSEED-Prices probably will
continue near the support level.
Nearly 100000 bushels were under
loan or purchase agreement by Nov.
80, leaving free stocks about equal
to domestic needs.

Market Outlook
By GILBERT GUSLER

EARLY 1850 EVENTS have added
to the expectation of a steady to
slightly higher trend in business ac-
tivity and consumer income in the
first half of the year. Business ex-
ecutives, who are in the best posi-
ton to judge, expect JanuaryJune
sales to hold at the general level
of the last half of 1949.
The general level of prices of
farm products probably will be
rather stable in the next few months.
Changes in the second half of the
year will depend materially on pro-
spective volume of new crops and
on whether consumer incomes de-
cline.
Farm real estate values last No
vember were percent under the
record high reached year previous.
They probably will decline further
in the coming year due to narrow
ing margin between farm prices and
farm costs.
CATTLE - Declining prices for
topmost kinds, steady to somewhat
lower prices for intermediate grades
and relatively steady to strong prices
for undergraders are probable over
the next three months. The supply
of choice and prime cattle is the
smallest at this season in over 20
years.
Stocker and feeder prices are like
ly to decline moderately in the next
few weeks, if fat cattle prices drop,
but probably will be strong in March
and April when buying stockers to
| put on grass will be active. Feed
conditions in the range states are
up to average and considerably bet
ter than year ago. Nationally, the
tendency is to build up beef herds.
Demand for stocker and breeding
cattle is likely to be strong relative
to the supply.
HOGS-Prices are likely to adj
vance moderately in the next six or
eight weeks, then decline in April
and May. That is the usual price
behavior in late winter and spring.
The advance in February and early
March may be less than generally
occurs in that period. Owing to
heavy slaughter thus far, numbers of
hogs from the 1949 crop are less than
a year ago. However, the fall pig
crop was increased IL percent and
the proportion sold before March 81
probably will be greater than usual
The support guide" price rises
from an average of 1854 a cwt. in
January to $16.11 in February and
$16.65 for March. Prices may moi
advance as much from January to
March as the support prices but
seem likely to remain over the sup
port level.
LAMBS-Further price rise il
probable. Current prices are 81 *
