Schoeppe| Favors End
|0f Excess Profits Tax
On Next June 80
BY the Assoeiossd Press

The drive to let the excess
profits tax die next June 80 today
won the support of Senator
Schoeppel, Republican, of Kansas.
Senator Schoeppel told a re-
porter he had found the levy
exceedingly unpopular among
businessmen in his State, particu-
larly those with small concerns.
The tax, which will expire by
law June 80. 1858, unless it is
extended by the new Congress,
has been producing about $2.5
billion annually. It was re-
enacted after the Korean war
broke out.
Several other Republican Sen
ators had urged previously that
1t be permitted to die.
One Senator said today, how
ever. that he thought it would be
a mistake politically to let the
excess profits levy expire without
doing something about cutting
individual income taxes at the
same time.
This source, who did not want
has name used, said it would be
better either to extend the excess
profits tax six months or move up
by six months the scheduled re-
Iduction in the individual levies.
The 1851 tax increase law,
passed to help finance the pre-
Iparedness program, provided that
the II per cent boost in personal
income taxes should expire on
December 81, 1858.

Of Music
By EIeno de Soyn

Pierre Monteux, leading the
Boston Symphony Orchestra as
guest conductor in Constitution
Hall last night, gave a concert
which will not be easily forgotten.
A virtuoso of the baton and q
commanding figure on the podium
he dominated the orchestra by
the strength of his personality

tracing gestures or side-show OF
personal display.
Last nights concert was the
first in many years that Mr.. Mon
teux dedicated to German music
lifting thereby a self imposed ban
on German compositions since
World War I. He not only
brought out an unfamiliar work
by Max Roger, but included also
Richard Strauss "A Hero's Life, .
which he refused to conduct
nearly 40 years ago.
This tone-poem. descriptive OF
the composers roads to success
of his wooing the woman he mar
ried, his fighting the prejudice
against his music and, finally, his
rising above worldly opinion,
takes in all resources of con-
ductor and orchestra emotionally
and technically.
To coordinate the poliphony
representing the many elements
in this piece of program music,
REQUIRES imagination and artistic
vision. Mr.. Monteux's descrip-
ton was vivid, as were the sonori-
ties he drew from the orchestra,
distinctive for strength and
beauty of tone and refinement.
Concertmaster Richard Burgin
played an important part in the
performance. His assignment as
solo-violiniSt, was to portray the
personality of Pauline de
Alma, once a prima donna soprano
and later Strauss temperamental
wife whose engagement followed a
tempestuouS scene. His lifelong
devotion to her resulted in many
orchestral and ope-
ratio works, not counting the
songs, one of which Dream at
Twilight, dedicated to her, was
so eloquently quoted toward the
end of the tenor poem by the tenor
tuba, viola and bass clarinet, that
Mr.. Burgin, an accomplished tech
nician, had no difficulty in pre-
senting the cadenzas in Strauss
opus and in Schumann's Sym

Association 10 Seal
Plans for Expanding
Alexandra Library

The Alexandria Library Asso-
citation will hold a special meeting
at 8 pm. tomorrow in the library
building to make final plans for
requesting an addition.
A delegation from the associa-
ton is to appear before the city
council Tuesday night to urge
funds for an addition during the
current fiscal year. The city plan
ming commission does not have
funds set up for the addition until
the 1953-54 fiscal year.
Armistead Boothe, Alexandria
attorney, has volunteered to assist
the association and will make the
plea before council.
The library at TIT Queen street
was opened in 1887 when the city's
population was about $4,000. To-
day the population is approaching
100000. According to American
Library Association standards, the
Alexandria Library is one-tenth
its proper size.
There is no room to exhibit the
many rare books that have been
given to the Alexandria Library,
and about 5000 books have had
to be stored.
The proposed addition would
cost about $143,000.
