On War Criminal Return
By the Associoted Press

HELSINKI, Finland, Jan. IT,
Finland's government drafted q
reply to Russia's demand for re-
turn of alleged Soviet war crimi-
mails today as the nations two day
presidential election drew to a
close.
Counting of votes for 300 elec-
tors who will meet February Is to

gin tonight, with first returns ex-
pected tomorrow.
Russia early this month accused
Finland's Social Democratic gov
eminent of harboring 300 Soviet
war criminals in move regarded
here as an attempt to influence the
presidential elections. Moscow
newspapers attacked President
Juho K. Paasikivi, seeking re-elec-
ton with the backing of the Social
Democrats, the Conservatives and
two small liberal parties.
The Parliamentary Foreign
Affairs Committee met today with
government ministers to draft a
reply to the Soviet note on wal
criminals. Russia specifically
asked for return of about 60 per-
sons accused of war crimes during
the two wars with Russia since
1899.

Once called the prince consort

Corning Recommends
Leave Rule
For D. T.. Teachers

A more liberal regulation on
sick or emergency leave for Dis
trict teachers was recommended
for action of the Board of Edu-
cation yesterday by School Supt.
Hobart M. Corning.
The proposed change in the
wording of this section of the
board regulations was presented
at meeting of the personnel
committee. One of the three
man committee was absent.
C. Melvin Sharpe, board presi-
dent, expressed disapproval of the
absence at the beginning of the
meeting, stating:
II take this job seriously After
all, we represent $28,000,000 of the
taxpayers money. There should
be renewal of interest in commit
tee assignments. If members are
not attentive to the work of COM
mittees I think we need new
members. and possibly new
president"
Corning Presents Report.
THE superintendents report
stated:
This section, now set up. is
rather restrictive and prevents a
teacher from earning leave should
she be absent from duty without
pay"
Mr.. Corning proposed it be
amended to eliminate the posi-
bility of a teacher or attendance
officer not earning leave at the
rate of one day a month, owing to
short periods of absence without
pay.
District Auditor A. r. Pilkerton
has agreed informally to the
change in the regulations, the re-
port pointed out.
The new section would provide
that no reduction be made in
the credit for sick leave if the alb
sence without pay totals less than
IS days.

leave legislation passed last year
in the District. He added that a
letter had just been received from

fits of the law to the teachers
which he would submit to the
board later.

Music
Chonoko Gives
Piano Program
On New Lines
By EIeno de Soyn

A piano program built along
new lines, without the usual list
ing of standardized compositions,
was given by Anthony Chanaka,
the well-known resident pianist,
in the Phillips Gallery last night.
The artist put his best foot for
ward by opening the recital with
Aaron Copland's powerful so
nata," which presumably received
its first performance here.
Not unlike a broad canvas, the
work represents substantial piece
OF serious music, dramatic and
deeply felt. Its majestic dissonant
chords became meaningful under
the strong and agile fingers of
Mr.. Chanaka, who did not spare
himself to make his reading elo-
quent. AS the sonata progressed,
no doubt was left that the COM
poser had message which he re-
lated in a succession of episodes,
the intriguing 'Scherzo" being one
of these. It's half questioning
half mocking contents relieved
much of the emotional intensity
with which the first and last
movements are permeated. The
audience was in a receptive mood
and signif1ed its approval by pro-
longed applause.
Three classical numbers: Bulls
"The Kings Hunting Jigg," Birds
"Pavana" and Handel's "Gavotte
with Variations" charmingly
played, separated the American
work from the French, which
formed the balance of the pro-
gram. OF these, the least inter-
esting was Faure's Theme and
Variations, op. 49," somewhat too
stolidly presented to make the
most OF its graceful style. But
Mr.. Chanaka's bold execution of
Poulenc's movement Perpetuel''
recaptured for him his hold on
the assembly which extended fur
ther to the three selections that
followed: Presto" promenade
and "Toccata," by the same COM
poser.
