Plan for State Taxes
On Oil From Sea May
Delay TideIands Bill
BY Robert K. Walsh

"A bipartisan drive today
threatened to block House pas
sage of the offShore submerged
lands bill if the measure allows
States to tax oil from the con-
tinental shelf.
An amendment to bar such
taxation was among proposed
changes up for debate on the
measure to give title to coastal
States for adjacent submerged
areas, popularly referred to as
'tidelands."
The bill itself, twice approved
In similar form by the House
In recent years, seemed likely to
pass by big margin on a Sched-
uled vote tomorrow. It was de-
bated for five hours yesterday
but was due for numerous
amendment efforts today.
Representatives Smith, Demo-
crat, Of Virginia. Keating. Re-
publican. of New York. ana sew
eraT others on both sides served
notice they would not go along
with the bill without the tax
ban.
Senate Debate Tomorrow.
The Senate begins debate to-
morrow on it's bill but is not ex-
pected to reach a final vote until
after Easter. The Senate version
would vest in States the title to
offshore submerged areas within
their three mile limits or, in the
case Of Texas and Florida, within
a 10-mile belt.
Both bills resulted from Su-
preme Court decisions which held
that the Federal Government has
paramount rights in those off,
shore lands. The House bill covers
not merely the State boundary
claims but applies also to the
continental shelf. This extends
many miles beyond the three-or
10-mile limits claimed by the
States. The bill would establish
Federal control for that extern
ton but allow States to impose
a tax on oil produced there under
leases by the Secretary of the
Interior.
Questions Of Quit Claims. !.
Much of the debate yesterday
centered on constitutional issues.
These dealt with the question as
to whether States could validity.
claim title OF the offShore areas
and whether the Federal Govern
ment, If the actual owner, could
quit its claim and give clear. title
to coastal States.
On the other questions the
debate provoked numerous bitter

twenty Years
Of immigration

A look at the composition of
the Jewish immigration to Amer
lea during the two periods before
and after World War II reveals
an interesting contrast. From 1884
to 1945, of the 10000 Jewish
refugees coming to the United
States: rs percent, or 100000,
were born in Germany; Is per-
cent, or $4,000, in Poland; and 10
percent, or about 10000, in Czech
oslovakia, Hungary, Rumania and
other countries. However, begin
ming with 1915, the country of
origin statistics reverse them
selves. Of 100000 Jews coming to
the United States since 1915, rs
percent, or 100000 originated in
Poland, IS percent, or $1,000 in
Germany and Austria, and 10
percent, or about $4,000, in other
countries. Therefore, until the
end of World War II, three of
every four Jewish refugees COM
ing to America were born in Ger
many, whereas, since the war
ended, three Of every four have
been Polish Jews. - Asher Penn.

News Of Music
By Alice Eversmon

The concluding program of
the Boston Symphony's local
series seemed designed to leave
with the capacity audience in
Constitution Hall last night the
remembrance of fine playing and
Interpretation. The selections
were well chosen to this end by
Charles Munich, who had in them
the finest opportunity to illus
trate the quality of his musician

was full of fire but fire that
was at call when needed, in
fusing the entire evening with
vibrancy and freshness.
Neither Schumann's Overture
to Manfred" nor Beethoven's
Symphony No. A." the first
numbers, have been played here
too frequently. 1t was good to
hear them once more, presented
with the conductors sympa-
thetic perception and by means
of the orchestra's tonal beauty.
The spice of the program. how
ever, lay in the "Deux Images"
by Bartok and, for sheer ethe-
real loneliness, the climax was
Evening star., 1953-03-13

redCAeQ III OGDuSSy FTeluQS
l'apres- midi dun Faune."
Reflects Characteristics.
The "Deux Images" reflect the
characteristics that permeate
much of Bartok's. earlier COM
positions. The amplitude of his
inspiration seems boundless in
these two numbers in the con-
trasting moods the composer
often used. The first, "En pleine
fleur," has a gripping intensity
in spite of its fundamental Sc
renity. and its descriptive wealth
is all encompassing. "Danse
villageoise" is typical of Bartok's
use of folk sources and of his
powers of enlarging the sim
plicity of native style to broader
dimensions. Both numbers have
the stamp of his vision, although
they are overcrowded with the
vividness of his talent and the
means he used, at that period of
his development. to express it.
Beside this music that COM
bines earthiness and imagina-
ton, Debussy's prelude a
l'apres-midi dun Faune" pre-
sented a strong contrast. It's
dreamy, Elusive charm and SEN
suousness were recreated with
striking effect in Mr.. Munch's
skilled Interpretation. It had a
flavor not always realized in an
opulently toned ensemble but
which the Boston musicians
caught with felicity.
Fervent Reading Given.
Mr.. Munich gave a fervent
reading to the Manfred" Over
ture. sensing its drama and
keeping it on a lofty plane. It's
sombre character was given a
prismatic glow through the
aliveness of the orchestra's play
ing and in the balance of effects
the conductor attained. Again
in the Beethoven symphony, he
made no call on showmanship
but immersed himself in the
special characteristics of the
music. Thus the transparent
beauty of the introduction and
calm loveliness of the slow
movement, with its surface rip
pied occasionally by a darker
reflection. made foils for the
playful Allegro vivace and the
gay finale. It was sound Beetho-
ven, with no extraneous trim
mings of conductors own de-
vising. and pleased the audience
nightly.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
Im fact that admission to most cultural
institutions is free can no longer relieve the
public from its responsibility for taking
direct share in the fiscal burden" says
Donald T. Carlisle, vice-president of the
New York Geological Society.
With this goal in mind. many institutions
are selling supporting memberships that
range from $40 up. In return for the fee -
which is usually tax-deductible - members
are not saddled with onerous responsibilities.
Instead. they are entitled to certain privi-
leges and services, such as private shows,
book discounts, sponsored movies, lectures
or concerts, and access to research facilities.
In addition they receive little identified
ton card and the pleasant feeling Of belong
ing to not-very-exclusive but fairly high
brow fraternity.
Institutions that receive tax support are
usually required to admit the public free of
charge. Most directors think the idea Is
good one and even private museums in most
cases are free. Many museums. however, are
experimenting with admission prices to spe-
cial exhibits, movies, showings of new
acquisitions and museum functions which
