News of Music
Tosconini Gives Capital One
Of Its Most Memorable Prooronns

RELENTLESS discipline. The crystal
line attacks, the rapid playing, as
In the allegro giocoso, and the
gradations of tonal power were
Iclean-cut and precise.
The second half of the pro-
gram contained descriptive music
beginning with Debussy's iberia
and followed by Smetana's "The
Moldau" and "Waldweben" from
Wagner's "Siegfried." Here it was
that Toscaninis power of tone
painting was revealed in the ex-
quisite pianissimos, the highlight-
ling of the inner voices and the
giving Of character to the work.
Beautiful in Detail.
ToScanini is not an imaginative
conductor in the sense that he
emphasizes emotion in whatever
he directs. He specializes. rather,
in the true delineation. There
was, for example, the firm accent
that described the moving water
of the Moldau, the cool, shadowy
flow of the music in Les par
fums de la mutt" of Iberia" the
balance of the flute, clarinet and
oboe calls against the murmuring
strings in "Waldweben." All the
beautiful details summed up to
an exciting whole.
Although Toscanini is the least
spectacular of conductors, there is
always excitement in the perform
ance. 1t is generated by the power
of the man himself and the
strength of his musical convic-
tions. 1t reached a height in the
overture to Wagner's die Meis-
tersinger" with which the con-
cert ended. Seldom has this num-
Der been played with so much
opulence Of tone, so broad and
vital line. 1t had the audience
again on its feet, cheering. Only
the encore and the signal for the
musicians to leave could termi-
nate one Of the most memorable
programs this city has enjoyed.

eva Hearings Set
For Late August

SEATTLE-It looks as if there is
real chance for the long-awaited and
much-postponed eva hearings in the
Pacific Northwest.
The key man in the eva show.
Senator Dennis Chevez, Senate pub
ic-works committee chairman, last
week definitely promised the hearings
for late August, right after Con-
gress ends its 1850 activities.
The enthusiastic pro-CVA mail
that Senator Chavez has received
from the Pacific Northwest is in
large part responsible for his de-
cision.
From the mail we have received,
| am certain that there is terrific in
terest for eva in your region" SEN
ator Chavez, a co-sponsor of eva
legislation, said. "Tell the people We'll
be out SOON"
These hearings are of great i'm
portance to the eva cause, E. M.
ed Weston, Washington State Fed
Grafton of Labor president, declared.
Vote Early In 1851?
"While it is too late for vote on
eva in this Congressional session,
successful completion of the hearings
will make it possible for a vote on
eva early in 1851 session of Con-
gress," he said.
GAS the Senate public-works COM
mittee membership will not change
this year, there will be no necessity
for further hearings. So it is very
important that we make a good show
ing when the Senators come out"
Many well-known civic leaders i'm
mediately wired their congratulations
to Senator Chavez for his decision to
hold hearings.
"Your determination to bring the |
eva issue to the people out here |
stamps you as a true friend of the |
Pacific Northwest" said James T.
Mari, Oregon State Federation of
Labor executive secretary.
Others to add their congratulations
were Henry P. Christensen, Washing
ton State Grange master; E. B. Aid
rich, publisher of the Pendleton East
Oregonian, and c. c. Dusten, Clio
regional director in Oregon.

POWER TRUST USES
SAME TACTICS
In OTHER STATES

Washington = The only thing
rate-cutting is good for in the
eyes of public utilities, apparently
is to scare away improvements in
the rural identification program.
South Carolina Electric & Gas
Co., a 500 million utility, pulled
the stunt recently when Central
Electric Power Coop of South
Carolina applied for a SO million
REA loan to build transmission
lines.
Said the 500 million outfit:
the coop will hurt business, and
we meet the areas needs.
The rate reduction dodge is an
old story to rural electric systems,
said Clyde T. Ellis, executive man
ager National Rural Coop Assoc
iation.
Many times in the past, power
companies have reduced rates to
ruin the feasibility of an REA
loan. When the loan is defeated,
private companies can raise their
rates"
He pointed out that in South
Carolina, the chief source of low
cost wholesale power is Santee-
Cooper. dam, and its output is com.
pletely in the hands of private
power companies.

lima, so is it also in Montana

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-A sud-
den burst Of activity in utilities
today enlivened an otherwise
sagging stock market.
This group burst into life with
gains of a few cents to more
than a dollar a share. Buying
was based on the theory that
utilities had not participated in
the spectacular rise of the last
few days and therefore were due
for an advance.
Gold mining shares generally
were higher by as much as a
dollar or little more, but they
were not particularly active on
the advance.
Radio-television issues were
unchanged to few cents higher.
Elsewhere the trend was down in
steels, motors. rails, oils. aircraft
and air lines.
Paramount Pictures board of
directors authorized a bid placed
on the stock exchange on Decem-
ber % to buy Paramount common
at $3.50 a share in order to &C
quire 100000 shares. The stock
added more than a point and
stood at around the bid price.
