as jazz composer, for he had
broken the bounds of the 70
rpm. pop records three minute
playing time often in the past.
His Creole Rhapsody" (1931)
covered two 12-inch Victor sides.
Four 10-inch Brunswick sides
were required for "Reminiscing
in Tempo" in 1885.
In 1914 he recorded BLACK,
Brown and Beige" on four 12-
inch Victor sides. His "Liberian
Suite" (194D, now on both sides
of a 10-inch Columbia LIP, was
the longest jazz composition on
record until Robert Graettinger's
City of Glass" came along to
share this claim through Stan
Kenton's Capitol recording ear
lier this year.
The latter is a curious work Of
considerable pioneering value
and points a new direction for
jazz. 1t draws most heavily on
Schoenberg and the twelve-tone
system, with relatively little ref
erence to jazz except in the
sound palette it employs.
Whereas a man like Ellington
has been musically successful
with LIP because he was ready
for it, the same cannot be said
for the small jazz CONDOS.
whether dixieland or bop, jump
or cool. They were expected to
shine on LIP. for it would now DO
possible to record those thirty
eight wonderful choruses on
Lady Be Good"
Jazz Has Limits.
Well. it was possible land still
isl. but unfortunately it has
turned out those thirty-eight
choruSes weren't so wonderful
after all. So far, the best small
group jazz on LIP is definitely in
the form of collections of short
play performances.
The basic reason for this lies
within the musicians themselves.
1t is easy for a first-clasS jazz
musician to improvise one or two
choruses of lasting beauty, ex-
citement and form. but it is only
once in a while that even a Louis
Armstrong, Charlie Parker or
Enroll Garner can keep it up for
five or six choruses or more.
Furthermore, in the last dec
ade most musicians have become
so sensitive to the professional
need to Guido their fellow per-
formers that their own stand
ards of quality have become ex-
hibitionistic.
The clearest example of this
can be seen in the fourteen LP'S
of Jazz at the Philharmonic"
which are on-the-spot recordings
of a jazz concert troupe first Or
ganized in 1914 at the Los An
geles Philharmonic Auditorium
by Norman Granz.
Granz, who produced the first
live" Jazz recordings by issuing
extracts from these concerts IN

not dictate how his musicians
should play. but their response

New Rope Putty Makes CouIking Eosy

The blade itself is made OF
highest quality silver steel, cor
rectly tempered. properly taper
ground and highly polished. The
balance is perfect. The saw cuts
easily and cleanlys The handle
is nodded Of tough. almost un-
breakable material which is
bonded and bolted to the blade.
In addition to being five tools
in one. the manufacturer further
states that should the handle
ever break, all one need do is
mail the saw to them with a
small fee, and they will replace
1t and mail the saw back to its
sender.

Time Saving Saw.
How many times. when you
were on a saving project. have
you turned In amazement and
asked yourself, Where did I
put that square?" where did I
lay that. ruleor level?" Even
the most meticulous Of us find
ourselves looking for the rule
and square when we're rushing
q job because Of limited time.
Now on the market is a hand
saw that will give one the utility
Of many tools. This saw is a
standard length but the back Of
the saw blade has a 24-inch rule
with clearly marked figures
etched into the steel to last per-
manently. The divisions are
down to one-sixteenth inch.
The back Of the saw blade also
provides a perfect straight edge
that is always in your hand for
instant use.
Place the straight edge OF the
saw on the surface to be leveled
and the level vials-built into the
handle of the saw will give pre-
cision service. The level and
plumb walls have been built into
the handle of the saw to stand
up efficiently under the shock of
repeated use. AS a level, this saw
gives twice the bearing surface
Of a regular 24-inch level.
The inside edge Of the handle
of this saw is squared with the
back of the blade. This gives an
accurate edge to square a cut on
a board. The tip of the saw
blade is also square with the
back and the ears of the handle
are also square with the back of
the saw.

In almost every redecoration,
alteration or repair project
undertaken by the do-it-yourself
home owner. there is a certain
amount Of caulking, plugging or
sealing required. Even without
undertaking any definite prof.
ect, the lady Of the house invari-
ably has a list Of jobs that she
wants taken care Of some week
end when there is time. On this
list there is sure to be at least
one caulking. plugging or seal
ing job.
A new product. now on the
market, makes an efficient and
satisfactory mender, sealer, glaz-
er, caulker and plugger. 1t is a
new, Inexpensive plastic adhesive
putty material in rope form and
can be used wherever glass,
metal. brick, cement or wood
meet. It will adhere to all of
these surfaces and to many
others. Moreover. it may be
painted any desired color i'm
mediately after it has been ap-
piled. It will also take varnish,
shellac and other finishes. It is
not necessary to prime any sur
face before using it.
No Special Tools.
Simple to use and requiring no
special tools. this new plastic
adhesive putty material comes

semi-attached so that strips IL
inches long may be peeled off as
desired. In a sense. this new
product could be called modern
putty, except that 1t does more
jobs than the ld-fashioned
putty.
Special mention should be
made of its mountaineering quail
ties, as 1t retains its pliability
almost indefinitely, contracting
and expanding, adhering tena-
ciously to glass. brick. wood,
metal and cement. According
to the manufacturer, it keeps
it's pliability in such extreme
temperatures as 200 degrees
above and 40 degrees below zero.
AS caulker it can be used
on exterior walls, window and
outside door frames, cracks
around bath tubs, sinks, wash
bowls, skylight glass. greenhouse
glass. in cutters where down.
spouts join, or in boats.
It can be used in place Of
putty without printing in reset
ting glass window panes, or it
may be used to plug nail holes,
plywood board or plasterboard
joints. Some home owners will
want to use it in bedding a
closet bowl or for mending gas
pipe leaks, soil pipe and sewer
fittings, roof leaks, cement
cracks. woodwork or hot air sys-
tenn return pipes.
The manufacturer also states
that this new mending plastic
adhesive is non-poisonous to
fish or animals. Children can

Greed and Deceit

You might think the little boy in
the story would be less of a grab
Der when he grows up; but he
may be worse by that time. You
might think people could be cured
of being greedy by giving every
body just exactly the same; but
there would be any number of
schemers figuring how to get their
share increased. You might think
people could be cured of the grab
habit by letting them have all
they want; but that seldom works,
because some of the greediest
people in history have been peo-
pie who had more than any of
their neighbors. The Bible story
of Ahab and the vineyard of Ma
both is case in point 1t isn't
story of the poor stealing from
the rich, it is the story of the rich
stealing from the poor, which aft
err all is a rather common occur
renee. The story of Ahab also illus
trates some notable facts about

The Prophetic Spirit

There must have been thousands
of Israelite citizens who knew
Ahab was greedy murderous
scoundrel. But it took the prophet
Elijah to come out with the truth
in plain language. Prophets are
not always wild figures in hair
cloth robes. They are not always
even preachers A newspaper can
have the prophetic spirit That St.
Louis paper. for instance, broke
the Teapot Dome scandal; it ex-
posed a half-million dollar "slush
fund spent by utility company
to bride legislature; it defeated
Democrat for governor who had
tried to steal the election; and it
defeated a Republican by showing
that his party was tied up with
those number-one Grabbers, the
big-time gamblers. The spirit of
Elijah is not dead: otherwise the
grabbers might inherit the earth.

because he wanted Naboth's vine

When a poor man gets into the
clutches of a loan shark, he is
never told at first what the rate

Greed and Murder

When a murder has been COM
mitted, almost the first question
the police ask is: Who stands to
make money by this crime?" Muir
ders are about as common in the
country as in the city, in proper
ton to the population. What is
the story back of killings in the
farmlands? Very often it is some
quarrel about a boundary line,
about some stock, about the price
of land or produce Not all muir
ders are for the sake of gain:
but if man is greedy enough, he
will not stop at murder. Peniten-
tiaries contain many a "lifer" who
would not be there today if he had
not been a greedy man.

The Post Intelligencer story
quoted Mrs. Hartle, As, at length
on her reasons for splitting with
the Reds. She said:
Il no longer want to- be a Com
munist or associated with Com
munism. To put it bluntly, I've
discovered that Communism is a
phony movement, politically, NOR
ally and in every other way.

Hansen said Mrs. Hartle, who
faces a five-year prison term and
a $1,000 fine on her October con-
viction, had been a member of the
Communist party's 18th district

has held at least a dozen key
jobs in the party.

He asked:
rs it any wonder that costs Of
living are high in Alaska and is
it any wonder that the cost Of
shipping material to Alaska has
cost our government substantial
sums Of money that have gone
into the pockets of the railroads?"
When Alaskans ship goods to
the United States, he said, ''the
railroads calmly reverse the dis
elimination and charge more on
the part Of the trip made by rail
within the United States than
they do when the shipments orig
mate in Hawaii, Japan or Korea. +"
Magnuson said the discrimina-
ton has been investigated at the
behest Of Edmund F. Mansure,
General Services administrator
''He has concluded that the
basis used by the railroads for
this practice is contrary to the
Interstate Commerce Act and has
said he is ready to bring a pro
ceeding to stop it before the Com
mission, Magnuson declared.
He said Mansure also has taken
the matter up with the Trans
Continental Freight Bureau on an
informal basis to give the rail
roads a chance to voluntarily ell
inmate the discrimination"

Convicted Woman Communist
Conspirator Renounces Party
And Tells FBI ALI Her Activities

SEATTLE, P-The Intel
ligencer, in a front-page copy
righted story, said Tuesday that
convicted Communist conspirator
Barbara Hartle has renowned the
Communist party. and has told the
FBI Of all her party activities.
Mrs. Hartle was one Of five per-
sons convicted by a federal court
jury here last October of cOnspir-
ing to teach and advocate the
violent overthrow Of the govern
ment. All five have appealed the
conviction.
During the trial the five were
described as the top echelon of
the Communist party in the Pa
cific Northwest.
Mrs. Hartle, a former Eugene,
Ore, waitress, voluntarily gave a
complete account Of her party
activities during secret sessions
with local FBI agents, the P-I
said in a story under the byline
of Traynor Hansen.
Richard D. Auerbach, agent in
charge Of the Seattle FBI office,
commented:
II can confirm the fact that
