Our Amphitheoter

Life, it seems, is especially pleasant
these nights on the northern fringe of Rock
Creek Park.
There the Carter Barron Memorial
Amphitheater appears to have come into
It's own as a facility for the entertainment
OF stay-at-home residents And also for
such perceptive visitors as want to see the
National Capitals landscape being put to
one of its happier uses.
Since the June opening with a fortnight
Of Gilbert and Sullivan by the American
Savoyards company, attendance has climbed
steadily. Now with the Ballet Theater's
series, it is coming beguilingly close to the
handsome bowls 1000 capacity. Even the
critics are quite pleased with it all.
Whatever its meaning in terms of the
amphitheater's increased popularity in this,
Its fifth season, there has been a distinct
change in its operating policy
In contrast to its previous exclusive
booking for such productions as the SYM
phonic drama Faith OF Our Fathers or
season of popular operetta, variety is the
new keynote. So far, in addition to the
Gilbert and Sullivan and Ballet Theater
repertory programs, the bowl has been used
for series of National Symphony concerts
with guest artists. To come during the next
few weeks are the Jose Greco Spanish dance
troupe, last years prize musical direct from
Broadway in ''The Golden Apple" produc-
ton, and, as finale, famous ice show.
The latter will be the first outdoor attrac-
ton Of its kind in Washington.
In this variety of bookings, the amphi-
theater has become a truly community ia
cility with an appeal to many tastes and to
entertainment seekers of all ages.

The Bulls Show the Way

"A buoyant stock market is not ileceS-
sarily sure sign Of prosperity either at
hand or just around the corner-but the
recent strength in security prices reflects a
marked optimism on the part of investors.
That 1t is investors, as distinct from spec
ulators who are so confident Of the bust
ness future is indicated by the fact that
leadership in the strong markets of the past
six months has been held consistently by
the so-ca1led blue chip stocks the equities
in companies OF proved earning power,
competitive ability and good, all-around
management.
On Thursday, for example, trading on
the New York Stock Exchange exceeded 3
million ShareS-the highest volume since
the session of April 8, 1858. On that day
In 1853, incidentally, price losses predom-
mated as compared with the upward trend
being shown currently. And when the mar
ket closed on Thursday, railroad and utility
I averages had recorded a 25-year peak while
industrial averages were within a fraction
Of point Of the same high level.
Many reasons might be combined to
provide a persuasive explanation Of the
market behavior this year, and particularly
this month. One reason may be the feel
ing that the imitation spiral has not been
firmly or permanently checked-the Federal
budget is not yet in balance, the Treasury
Department has retreated from its ''hard
money" policy to make borrowing easier
and at lower interest rates, and Govern
ment spending for ornaments and for such
projected enterprises as the $5O-billion
highway program promises to stay high.
But business reports for the first six months
also have made good reading, with earnings
stacking up well against the 1858 record
figures The Commerce Department an
nounced on Thursday, too, that dividends
paid during the first five months of this
year amounted to more than So billion, an
increase of about 10 per cent over the COM
parable 1858 period. The fact that the prin-
ciple of tax relief for dividend income
even though modified from the original adj
ministration request-has been retained in
the omnibus tax revision bill makes divi-
dend-paying stocks more attractive. The
administration feels, Of course, that this
provision will have even more fundamental
good effects on business and industry
encouraging equity financing rather than
accumulation Of debt and facilitating ex-
pansion Of plants and research. Although
some Observation-Disclosures textiles, coal
and steel-are well below their 1858 levels
OF production and earnings, others-Such as
construction-are booming. Even the de-
pressed ones show signs of "leveling off,
overall industrial production in June was
higher than in May
DR.. Gabriel Hauge, economic adviser to
President Eisenhower, expressed the opin-
ion recently that the national economy 'is
catching its breath for new advance" His
optimism may have contributed to bullish
sentiment in the market In turn, the mar
ket itself will need to "catch It's breath"
soon but there seem to be no immediate
threats of more than what the analysts call
corrections and adjustments.

Dulles 'On q Limb Aqoin'

Secretary Dulles said he was conf
dent Red China will not be seated in
the U. N. This, of course, is not the
first time recently that Dulles has
climbed out on limb. In the present
instance he would call it defeatism to
implement United States opposition
to the Reds with threat to withdraw
from the organization, if they are
seated there.
But reports from Europe say there
are aspects of defeatism in the Secre-
tary's position. Apparently the tip-off
has gone abroad that the United States
will accept defeat on this issue without

Race Track and Oil Money

Out Of Texas this week came sample
Of the immensely about which Texans like
to boast, and this time 1t seems that the
heart is one Of the biggest things Of all. Two
oil men, whose money appears to flow read
lily, have begun negotiating to buy some of
the country's biggest race tracks, with the
idea of channeling the lucrative income
from those tracks into help for underpriv-
neged boys in the Nations urban areas.
Under the plan, 80 per cent of the profits
from half dozen tracks would be used for
centers which would provide recreational
facilities, guidance counselors and voca-
tional training for boys who otherwise
would not have access to such advantages.
There are those who will have misgiv-
ings about associating race-track money
with the Nations youth; those who will feel
that while the end is laudable, it is not suf-
hcient to justify the means. Although rae
ing has been called the sport Of kings, the
public generally has a picture Of a world
peopled with RunyoneSques characters not
too loath to wink at activities unacceptable
to society. The recent scandals in New York
did nothing to help.
But no less respected figure than ].
Edgar Hoover, director Of the Federal Bu-
reau OF Investigation, repeatedly has voiced
enthusiastic approval of the general plan.
He has not yet given yes or no, however, to
the proffer that he head the organization
which would carry it out Philanthropy has
been connected with racing money before,
but never in any startling amounts. There
Is ring Of sincerity in the proposal Of the
oil millionaires, Clint MurchiSon and Sid
Richardson, to set aside 80 per cent of the
profits to give youngsters helping hand,
reserving the remainder to operate the or
ganization that will supervise the undertak-
ing. These are the same two men of fab
ulous wealth who got wide publicity in the
recent New York Central Railroad stock
control battle. Their money is available to
guarantee private loans to get the race
track proposal under way, and their plan is
worthy of serious consideration.
