The abundance of religious and
secular music heard in the city
yesterday made a significant con.
. tribution to the lenten season, a.
compared with that of previous
years.
Coinciding with it was the
launching of the American Festi-
val in the National Gallery OF
Art; the last event of the Hayes
Concert Bureau series, and the
fifth annual program by the Boys
Club of Washington in the Lisner
Auditorium. The performance of
Bach's "St. Matthew Passion" in
the Washington Cathedral, in ar
afternoon and evening session
was the major Offering in the re-
ligious field.
After an absence of a few years
the First Piano Quartet returned
to Constitution Hall yesterday
Afternoon. It's popularity here
with young people has not dimin-
ished. A glance at the sections
above the boxes in the auditorium
sufficed to ascertain that they
were filled to capacity.
Have Uniformity of Style.
Whether the ouartet's personnel
is the same or not, the quality of
the performance remains the
same. Its present members, Adam
Garner. Glauco D'Attili. Edward
Edison and Frank Mittler, have
ATTAINED an exemplary ensemble.
Their playing is a model of re-
f1nement. fluency. lightness and
beauty of tone. That all of the
partners should have it in the
same degree is unusual. Consid-
ering that they are natives Of
different countries and belong to
different schools of playing, they
astound by the uniformity of
their style and expression.
Each pianist is given an oppor-
tunity to lead. In Bach's prelude
and Fugue in c Minor" the voic-
ing was so distributed that it made
for variety and clarity. Such num-
bers as Mozart's gay "Rondo" and
the List La Campanella" gave
innumerable opportunities for a
display of perfect scalework and
trills. Schubert's Trout Varia-
tions" and Chopin's Harp" etude
placed an emphasis on tone, Web
er's Invitation to the Dance" and
Chopin's "Ecossaises" on cadence
and Tilt.
The spontaneity of their play
ing and its buoyancy never once
transgressed the self-imposed
restraint in the use of force, the
musical quality predominating
throughout.
Unusual Performance:
A different approach to the
piano was revealed in the three
American sonatas, Critics, Mac
Dowell and Barber, presented by
Marjorie Mitchell. first artist in
the American series in the Ma
tional Gallery of Art last night.
The impetuosity of her per-
Torrance was something rather
unusual in a woman. The exhibit
ton of fire and strength was star
ting at the outset of the program
and seemed a welcome departure
from the. more or less, general
lack of temperament in women
pianists.
In Critics. work Miss Mitchell
showed virtuosity of no mean Or
der, emotional drive, verve and
technical security. Her delivery
was fashy. Although it lacked
poetry in quieter moments the
good features of her playing Of
fered for the moment sufficient in
terest to overlook details.
However, after she treated other

Lamar Kelly, Jr., who heads up

He said the City should demand
a franchise for competitive bus

as a municipal or privately owned

In what was interpreted by some
observers as a charge that the

Mr.. Kelly pointed out that Alfred

Mr.. McNayr said one of the first
steps necessary to solving the
drainage problem was to conduct
a survey of all stream beds in
the suburban area. He pointed out
that no complete study has been
made.
The county manager noted that
although the Washington Suburban
Planning has the authority to pro-
ceed in such storm drainage pro-
blems there is no requirement that
it do so.
A comprehensive storm drainage
program has been estimated to cost
some $40 million. Mr.. Butcher said
there are two possible solutions to
securing money for such projects.
One, he said, was to establish
storm drainage areas on which spe-
cial taxes would be levied. The
other would be the establishment
of a straight advalorem tax in the
entire suburban district. The latter,
he added, would be the more prec-
teal.
Mr.. Butcher pointed out also that
in many cases, Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission has approved many plats
which provided the dedication to
public use of submarginal land
along stream beds. Although the

Jury Decides Girl Died
From Giving Up InsuIin
BY the Associated Press

BARRIE. Ontario, Dec. 90
A coroner's jury said yesterday
that Mary Taylor. 19-year-old
diabetic, died here three weeks
ago because she had stopped TAX
ing insulin of her own free will.
The verdict blamed no one for
the girls death.
The inquiry grew out of an at
tempt at prayer and religious
faith in the girls case. The gov
eminent attorney introduced 10
witnesses but not the key witness,
Pastor Rufus w. Holmes, of Tulsa,
Okla. who conducted a series CT
religious meetings here and talked
with Miss Taylor before her death.
Mr.. Holmes said in a letter that
he wanted to be with his family
for Christmas.
A sworn statement by Mr..
Holmes to Ontario Provincial
Police in New York State the day
after the girl died also was read
to the jury. In it he said that
when the girl talked to him re-
garding her illness he had told
her I was not a doctor and did
not give any advice regarding
medicine. do not claim to be
a healer. I pray for the sick,
and Christ is the healer"

Brewster 10 Retire Early
And Gain Month S Benefits
BY the Associated Press

Senator Brewster, Republican,
of Maine said last night he is re-
firing December 81 rather than
waiting for his term to expire
January 2.
The Senator explained that by
so doing he would become eligible
for retirement pay in January
rather than in February. He told
a reporter:
Since there will be no sessions
of the Senate January / or 2 and
all the affairs of my Office will
have been wound up. and since I
have served Is years and made
my contributions to the Federal
retirement system. / see no preju-
dice to my retiring a few days
early so as to receive benefits in
January"
The Senator's successor, Gov.
Frederick G. Payne. has resigned
effective at midnight, Christmas
Day. He did so so he could take
the oath when Congress convenes
January 3. His term as Governor
ordinarily wouldn't end until jan
uary 6. If he waited until then
to go to Washington he would lose
seniority to other new Senators
sworn in January 3.
