Loyalty Oath

The District Commissioners
yesterday backed up Insurance
supt. Albert F. Jordan's policy Of

A. Lane agreed tthey would not

The American Civil Liberties
Union had asked them to make
Mr.. Jordan drop such questions
from his application forms.
The case was left UP In the air,
however, when the Commission
ers asked Corporation Counsel
Chester H. Gray whether Mr..
Jordan also ought to continue
asking applicants If they had
ever refused, on constitutional
grounds, to testify before a grand
jury or other Government body.
Mr.. Gray, who had defended
Mr.. Jordan's right to ask ques-
tons about aftiliation with Com
munist organizations or groups
in the Attorney Generals Sub
versive list" postponed an an
swer on that issue.
MIR. Gray had pointed out that
under the law. Mr.. Jordan must
be satisfied" that an applicant
for an insurance license sis com.
petent and trustworthy" and
that he lis worthy of a license.
He said the Supreme Court has
pointed out that the insurance
business is unlike any other husi-
ness" and should require the
highest standards observed.
Mr.. Karrick said Mr.. Jordan
had told him Of an applicant
who admitted having been a
member Of a Communist club at
Fordham University 10 years
ago. Mr.. Karrick said the man
had resigned from the club and
that Mr.. Jordan granted him a
license.
Gen. Lane noted that an an
swer Of yes does not necessarily
bar the applicant. He said the
application form should be
allowed to stand unless we are
prepared to say this is an area
which Mr.. Jordan should not
touch at ALL"

Itra continued to maintain q high
standard of performance in the
orchestra's second concert of the
current season.
Paul de Bourg, principal cellist
of the gorup, played the Haydn
cello concerto very well. His tone
was suave and well-controlled,
and except for couple of slight
mishaps in thumb position, he
negotiated the formidable diff
ficulties of the solo part with &C
curacy and convincing style.
The orchestration, by Gevaert,
is too thick for a cello solo. but
the conductor kept the dynamics
low enough for the soloist to be
heard at all times. I believe this
concerto, once attributed to
Haydn's pupil. Anton Kraft, is
now thought to be genuine
Haydn, and it is. no matter who
wrote it, one of the most in
teresting and grateful works in
the repertoire of the cello.

Beethoven is one of the lesser

thought the introduction was q
little fast. The German roper
tory was also represented by the
prelude and love death from
Tristan. and by the Rosenka-
Waller waltzes of Richard Strauss.
The Wagner mooed and groaned
with appropriate rapture, and
the waltzes were displayed to
good advantage.
The one American work was
a pair of movements from Aaron
Copland's suite, "Rodeo," some
times known as "El Salon La
ramie." The orchestra attacked
the music with a sort of frantic
earnestness which did not pre-
vent a few of the notes from
falling into measures adjacent
to those intended. 1t is fright
fully tricky to read, as it bristles
with odd rhythms and short,
hiccoughing entrances. Last
nights performance was rather
more fun to hear than the dead
pan, slick-playing the piece
usually gets.
Things I enjoyed especially
were a nice passage for the

Last night at the Phillips Gal
lery, baritone Garfield Swift
completely disregarded the or
thodox art of program-making
and yet succeeded in presenting
one of the most absorbing vocal
recitals of the season.
For his unusual offering, Mr.
Swift chose to draw entirely
from the wonderful repertory OF
English solo song. Only a single
piece as performed in a Ian
guage other than English, and
as. that was an Italian aria
from Handel's "Ottone," an
opera he composed in England,
1t too had a valid place on the
program.
Neither did Mr.. Swift confine
himself to songs which had re-
ceived frequent hearing. About
the only song familiar to more
than a handful was probably
Morley's 1T was a Lover and
His Lass; the remainder of
what proved to be a long pro-
gram was completely fresh and
distinguished music.
Two groups were particularly
notable. The first consisted of
songs by the 17th-century Pei
ham Humfrey, a short lived
composer whose music has re-
manned largely UNEMPLOYED, but
who had a strong influence in
his time. Four of his songs,
taken from a microfilm of the
manuscript owned by Prof
Bryce Jordan of the University
of Maryland. were performed by
Mr.. Swift for what is thought
to be the first time since Hum
frey's own day.
Also of highest interest were
hve songs with a sixth for en-
core) by Peter Warlock, a tragic
figure in British music who COM
mited suicide at the age of sc
at the beginning of the last de-
preston. Warlock, who was q
