the tendency of "Carmina
Burana" to be somewhat
vulgar. Indeed. at times it
has something. family in
common with the spirit OF
the Papageno music of THE
Magic Flute" which is no
insignificant recommended
ton. This is by no means
saying that Orff is in the
same league with Mozart,
but Der Mond" has some
unexpected attractions.
Except for a child, Der
Mond" calls for an all-male
cast, some of whom have
only speaking roles. A sump-
tuous production under the
composers supervision was
organized by Angel for re-
cording purposes, with Hans
Hotter, Karl Schmitt-Walter
and Rudolf Christ among
the principals and Wolfgang
Sawallisch, an energetic
young conductor, in charge.
Sawallisch also pileted the
Angel recording of Orff's
other currently available
opera. die Kluge." For those
VINO admired the latter, Der
Mond" may prove still more
rewarding.

CHURCH ORGANS

In the face Of dissension,
some of which has appeared
in letters in The Star, find
upon further investigation Of
the matter nothing that
changes my opinion about
church organs, a subject on
which I wrote a fortnight
ago. I concede that the
organ is an instrument OF
considerable antiquity. but it
is beside the point to speak
of organs of the second CEN
tury before Christ to the
tenth after in a discussion OF
organ music. none of which
we now know even approach
ing that venerability.
To say that the very early
churches were designed with
the organ in mind is to dis
regard the universally at
tested fact that there was
little if any instrumental
music in church in the first
centuries of Christianity. Mr..
Grey Leslie, suggesting that
I take a cursory glance at an
encyclopedia to learn about
the constant development OF
the organ, also is shocked at
my belief that early cathe-
drals were not designed with
the benefit of the congrega-
ton in mind. Upon consult
ing the Encyclopaedia Brit
tanica. perhaps belatedly. /
find in the article Church:
In considering the origins OF
the medieval churches. more
over. it must be bourne in
mind that as a general rule
their builders were not actu-
ated by the motives usual in
modern times The size
of churches was not deter
mined by the needs of popu-
lation but by the piety and
wealth Of the founders, and
the same applies to theil
number :"

thorized by the bill to pro-
duce entertainment as di-
vorced from apparent public
demand as it can find money

imagination to create, 1t can
feel that its mandate is to
bring a new culture to the
people. rather than to pro-
vide opportunities for a more
luxurious Towering of that

itself in the position of a
university press, which pub
fishes a book because it feels

Two Basic Attitudes

No question is so vital to
the future of the Cultural
Center. With our tremen-
dous national skill in the
craftsmanship of packaging it
is probable that many do
nors will give money merely
for the building, without
consideration of its use.
Others may be interested in
the motor under the hood.
the cheese in the. tinfoil.
The Thompson Fulbright
bill does not make it clear
whether the board is to be
a sort of OAR with a Con-
stitution Hall. or a David
Belasco with big ideas. AS
interpret the bill, however,
the board will be independ-
ent ana omnipotent, al
though possibly penuriouS.
There are two basic at
titudes that can establish
two widely divergent char
acters for the new Cultural
Center. The theater can be
considered a subsidy for the
entertainment world-Some-
thing that theatrical people
of all sorts would acquire as
part of their equipemnt if
the cost were not prohibitive.
Thus the Cultural Center, a
glorifled National Theater or
Constitution Hall, would still,
in the final analysis. be run
by the taste of the public or
a segment of the public. 1t
would be used by the strictly
commercial theater and also
by nonprofit "cultur e"
groups such as the National
Symphony and the Opera
Society of Washington.

point. The name cultural

advised. It is simply horrible.
sounding like the designation
OF a large greenhouse. or the
booth where exhibitors
pamphlets are given away at
a fancy State fair. We must
get rid OF 1t before It be-
comes hallowed by tradition.
National Opera House"
would be descriptive. Still,
since the new site Is DOM
mated by the statue Of him,
who can be called our great
est statesman (although with
his back turned. looking to-
ward Tennessee). suggest
the name William Jennings
Bryan Memorial Hall" Per-
haps the unborn building can
be left nameless until a bene-
factor with $40 million makes
himself known.
It is clear that after the
Cultural Center is built, the
board will find itself in one
of three positions. Under the
law, it will be in the theater
business. choosing repertoire,
hiring. firing, commissioning
refnancing. Or 1t can be a
sort of landlord. leasing the
building to any qualified
customer wishing to under
take the production Of OPP
eras. dramas, ballets, poetry
readings. recreation for the
elderly. or what not-anc
with the cash to pay the
rent. Thirdly. 1t can of course
be a combination Of the frs
two. In any case, it viii have
to operate on funds RAISED
by public subscription. un'
less Congress makes furthei
provision, for the presen
bill only allows the board Il
function. it does not en-
able it.

pEopriately q tenfold trinity;
righteous. omniscient and
wise.
The board OF what In the
various meetings Of the last
month has almost invariably
been referred to as Wash
ington's opera house" Is
made up half OF various
Federal and District officials
and half Of other American
citizens appointed 10 i0-year
terms by the President.
Money for the erection
and operation Of the Gull
ttnal Center is TO be raised
from voluntary contributions
from the public.
The board will act both as
trustee OF this fund and as
manager. or even producer,
OF the activities Of the CEN
ter.
Like the various founda-
lions that present music at
the Library of Congress, the
board will not be respon-
sible to Congress nor to any
one else. THE actions Of the
Board" says the bill. "in-
GLIDING any payment made
or directed to be made by It
from any trust funds, shall
not be subject to review by
any officer or agency other
than a court Of law"
Advisory Group to Aid
In addition to this board,
there is to be an Advisory
Committee on the Arts. 20

dent, and to serve at his
pleasure. Its function Will
be to assist and adviSe-ac-
cording to the temper Of the
board this committee can
either establish the charac-
ter of the Cultural Center
and guide its destinies, or be
a fio1lrehead devoid of any
authority.
The first half of the board
is established not by indi-
vidual but by Objects in

of Health. Education anc

Sidney Bank
Debts Pace
State Increase

Sidney banks lead the state in
debts, according to the monthly
report from the Federal Reserve
Bank of Minneapolis. For the year
through August, Sidney banks
show a percentage gain of 21%.
The other cities with high in
creases over the same period in
1857 include Glasgow with a plus
15ec, Bozeman 1876, MiSsoula and
Helena with 11E.
According to Dan Price, Sidney
National Bank representative, the
bank debts for the most part are
checks against depositors accounts
and thus represent payments for
services, goods, and other items,
thereby indicating business activ-
ity. During the month of August
there was a general small decrease
in the states covered by the Ninth
Federal Reserve District. These
decreases ranged from minus 20
to only one plus and that was the
State of South Dakota.
