pension claims of veterans
which have undergone a COM
prehensive review were ac-
curate and required no adj
justment, Veterans Admins
tration said in its third prog
ress report.
The review eventually will
cover 1,713,00O cases in which
World War Ii or peacetime
veterans under SIS years of
age are receiving compensa-
ton for service connected
disabilities.
The review was started in
1854 and is being conducted
on time available" basis
in order to keep VAS day-to-
day work current. The review
is expected to be completed
in three to four years.

TOPS IN Pops
By BOB WILLIAMS

"Clair de Lune," on the best
known works by the late
French composer Claude De-
busy, is going to be adapted
into a popular song.
For years. various music
publishers have tried vainly to
get permission for a pop adap-
tation of the famous tune, but
the Debussy estate would have
no part of it, feeling that an
adaptation would hurt the
sales of the original, However.
the United States copyright on
the original expires in 1861, at
which time it would be in pub
lie domain. and then anyone
could use the melody as a bas-
is for a popular song.
BY making an adaptation
now, it would be protected by
copyright for another Sc years.
and would not be subject to
any vulgarization through its
becoming public domain in
1861.
Therefore, Vogel Music
Company was granted the
right to popularize the song
on condition that the new YER
sion not be sold or played in
France, where the original is
still one of the biggest stand
ard sellers.
The pop song number has
been given the title of Moon
light Love-" with lyrics by

BY JAMES G. DEANE

A new recording Of Gina
rosa's III Matrimonio Segreto"
has been issued by Angel.
In every way it is a delight
full affair. Cimarosa today is
known by a handful Of re.
cordings and practically no
public performances, but he
was one Of the most prolific
and best known composers Of
his time. Some Of his music,
qualitatively. is not too far re-
moved from that of his con-
temporary, Mozart. And IN
Matrimonio Segreto" is reputed
his operate masterpiece.
Angel took advantage of a
production featured at last
winters opening Of. La Piccola
Scala, a little theater newly
attached to the famous Milan
opera house, for the recording.
1t is thoroughly polished. Ebe
Stignani. who joined in for the
record-making only. is the only
member of the cast already
famous on this side of the At
lantic. but all the singing is
attractive. and the engineering
could hardly be improved upon.
On this basis, there would be
no reluctance in this corner
to having more of Cimarosa's
60-odd operas brought to ear.

SCHUMANN, PLUS
Walter Gieseking, whose

observance of the Schumann

been not entirely idle in this
cause. The A minor concerto,

board and Herbert Won Kara

solo "Kinderscenen" set have
newly arrived on Angel, cou-
pied on a single record.
A Gieseking "Kinderscenen"
has been available. The new
edition offers superior sound,
and the usual admirably crisp,
controlled playing to be ex-
pected from Gieseking. The
performance might be termed
objective. as opposed to ro-
manticized. The approach car

is more obvious emotional con-
tent in the concerto, which
