More On Sally Carrighar's Testimony Before Senate

(The following is in addition to the AP news story published in this paper last Friday, concern ing Sally Carrighar's testimony before a Senate committee investi- gating CABS regulations on ir- regular carriers:
 By Frank Vaille
 WASHINGTON, (P)-Miss Car righar enlivened her testimony with references to packs of hungry dogs attacking people and stories of outlaw" pilots operating with out CAB approval.
 Her mention of the dogs came in connection with her statement that bush pilots had been banned from operations to seven villages between Nome and Unalakleet on the Boring coast.
 She testified government sub sides to regular carriers on the route amounted to about $100,000 a year-"to furnish service not needed and not wanted by 165 Els kimos''- that Kinsey told her a major cargo was freight, includ- ing garbage cans.
 "Now that's surprise" she de- clared, "because hungry dogs are a problem in this area. They actu- ally eat people up there. You would never get from the door to the garbage can without being at tackled"
 Telling of the outlaw pilots, she referred specifically to Eugene Joiner, of Kotzebue, whom she de- scribed as "a fighting pilot who won't even apply for a CAB li- cense because he has such con- tempt for them"
 Miss Carrighar added that dur ing a CAB hearing against Joiner last August personal insults were exchanged and H. George Kurtz,

Charge Conspiracy Put NOn-Skeds Out of Business
Asserts CAB Is Most Formidable Obstacle Mass Air Transportation

WASHINGTON, (P)-The head of the nations non scheduled airlines said yesterday the Civil Aeronautics Board ''iS the most formidable obstacle in the way of mass air transportation"
 As such, said Amos E.. Heacock, of Seattle, president of the Air coach Transport Association, the CAB lis the chief obstacle in the way of adequate air lift that is needed to save lives in an inn pending war"
 Heacock'S assertion was made before the Senate Small Business subcommittee which is inquiring into the effect of the CABS poli- cies on irregular or non-scheduled air carriers.
 Heacock said there has been a definite clear-cut conspiracy to put the non-skeds out of business through the machinery of the Civil AeronauticS Board.
 He said that 892 per cent of passenger and ton miles carried by non-scheduled carriers last year was done by carriers dis approved by the CAB. This dis approval, he said, takes the form of enforcement action directed at the lines route-type service, by denial of its individual exemption application because of route-typ service or by other indications. ,"

The Philadelphia Orchestra
wrote a brilliant finis to its WASH
ington series of concerts for the
season in Constitution Hall last
night. A high wave of enthusiasm
ran through the entire program,
expressed in volumes of applause
and recalls for Eugene Ormandy,
who modestly shared the honors
with his men.
One imperious gesture from him
was enough to get the orchestra
into the festive stride of the "Pre-
lude" to Wagner's die Meis-
terSinger" and to maintain 1t
through the evening.
Brahms first symphony was
given a powerful expression Of
breadth and majesty, its towering
proportions held in constant view,
undimmed by softer lights. Mr..
Ormandy forged ahead unremit-
tingly toward the great climax in
the last movement, where there is
boundless rejoicing in the triumph
of light over darkness. Here,
Brahms brought out forcefully
what Beethoven had already said
before him. His strong utterances,
to the fateful beat of timpani, has
never been as emphatic, in the re-
membrance of the writer, as 1t was
made by the skill of Mr.. Ormandy,
who drew upon the multiple forces
of the magnificent ensemble in
hand. If the effect was somewhat
theatrical, it was dramatic to an
extreme and did not fail to register
in the audience. which responded
by vociferous applause.
Louis Mennini's tended "Arioso"
for strings was first introduced
here by Howard Hanson at the

AS a review Of the period, 1859
to 1893, covers too many spec
tacular events in scenes too brief
to arouse any particular intensity
of feeling. 1t engages the atten-
ton without making any par
ticular demand upon either the
mind or the deeper emotions.
It's effect is that of a show
and this is the one for which
this years production obviously
strives. The George Washington
played by Charles Grunwell is
treated as a character too well
known to need more than sketch
ing here, and this is even more
true of the historic figures sur
the hero of Faith Of
Our Fathers"
Intentionally, no doubt to bring
it within the scope of such q fast
action spectacle, the Washington
family servants, especially Billy
Lee played by John Tate, are
more sharply drawn than his more
statuesque and significant coll
leagues on the political scene.
This is the concession Of this
years production to the harsh
truth that symphonic drama can
not be everything, in which case
it had better just be as big and
colorful as the stage and setting
will permit.
There is a new musical score
this year, the work of Richard
Dirksen and played by a 22-piece
orchestra, a considerable improve
ment' in this department. Even
more of a help is the new and far
simpler staging and lighting by
James Waring. The costuming is
the admirable work of Susanne
Sherman and Myra Kinch is re-
sponsible for the new dances
which fit easily into the new
formal of Faith of Our Fathers"

Whether the bid will be &C.
cepted. of course, remains to be
seen but the odds in favor of il
are improved by several superb
critics in the new model Faith
of Our Fathers"
Pretense has been shaken out
of this years version. It is frank
ly just a show, colorful spectacle
which goes for bold effects. It
recognizes that both the stage and
the arena are structures of great
dimension which defy the thea
trical subtleties which Author
Green injected into the original
work.
The new Faith of Our Fathers
therefore has a unity which was
one of its serious lacks last year.
1t is frankly circusy in flavor, with
fireworks. horses and tableaux
and, apart from George Washing
ton, the other leading Revolution
ary War characters have dropped
down into the mass of colonists.
Its message is the simple one that
the whopping idea of Democracy
Is being born on the amphitheater
stage and that whale of lot OF
people were in on the travail and
the later happiness.
All this leaves the SeSquicen-
tennial symphonic drama short
Of the greatest show on earth but
its creators have tried to work out
q colorful, massive and rapidly
moving pageant which frankly ap-
peals to the family trade. This
naturally is the only trade with
any likelihood at all Of filling the
amphitheater nightly except Sun
days from now to Sept. 3.
It the Fourth Of July type story
he is telling this year. Mr.. Green
makes Washington a larger figure
although less dramatic one. An
almost entirely new first act hu-
manizes the hero of Faith of Our
Fathers" by picking him up at an
earlier age, 81. This was in 1853
when Washington was a new
bridegroom returning from the
French and Indians Wars with his
new bride.
His intention is to be a Vir-
ginia farmer and for Is years he
manages to hold politics at arms
length until British restrictions
upon the volatile Colonies become
unbearable. Come quickly there
after a series of brief, boldly
staged scenes depicting the Battle
of Lexington, Washington'S selec-
ton as Commander of the Colo
NAL Army, the crossing of the
Delaware and the disastrous win
ter at Valley Forge.
AS entertainment, the appeal OF
this is strictly to the senses and
the new production gives 1851 au-
diences an eyeful of movement
and color, leaving the mind to
fill in the significance of it all.
The second act is focused equally
upon the figure of Washington.
It is concerned with his hope, in
his later years. to live as private
citizen at Mount Vernon and its
continuous Illustration. Merely
brushed in are the highlights of
this period of Washington's life,
the disunity among the Colonies
after victory. the constitutional
convention, the tax rebellion, and
