An Accident Could Cause War
Congress has taken cognizance Of
the Berlin crisis fraught with dam
ger President Eisenhower says,
we are not going to give one
single inch in the preservation Of
our rights and in discharging our
responsibilities in this particular
region especially Berlin There
can be no negotiation on this
particular point or right and Of
retention Of responsibility" Rus
sian Premier Khrushchev says, in
effect. War? Yes, if the United
States and its Allies use force to
stay in Berlin"
Despite these infleXible posi-
tions. do not believe there will
be shooting war. Why? Because
Communists usually will settle for
q lot less than they ask for. Their
threats and implied threats will
continue. but they usually back up
or slow down when they face real
danger. The war ahead probably,
will be war of nerves. not a
shooting war. Shooting war, if it
should come. would be a war by
accident. not by design.

/ Are Wage Farmers Better Off
The Congress is considering labor
reform legislation designed to
prevent racketeering elements from
( controlling labor unions. Labor
unions will continue their role of
asking for higher wages. When it
is pointed out that factory wages
averaged S212 an hour in 1858 as
compared with only S135 ten years
ago. the rebuttal is that the cost
Of living increased and continues
to increase.
The question is: Are wage earn
ers better off now in terms Of
what their work will buy? Yes.

Machinists. labor union, which

Snowberger Gets
State Assignment
To Home COnclave

Mrs. Mildred H. Snowberger,
home economics teacher at the
John Bassett Moore High School,
Smyrna, and Mrs. Gladys Helm,
home economics teacher at the
Lord Baltimore School, Ocean
View, Delaware, attended the
communications e m i n ar for
home economists recently at
the Kellogg Center, Michigan
State University, East Lansing,
Mich, which was held Sept. 27
through Oct. 3. Sponsored by
the American Association of
Land Grant Colleges and Uni
versities, American Dietetics
Association, American H Of m e
Economics Association, an d
American Vocational Associa-
ton, the purpose was to provide
an opportunity for economists
to increase their knowledge, un-
derstanding, and appreciation of
sociological psychological ap-
proaches to communication and
education in relation to current
problem situations and oppor-
tunities in home economics. The
seminar was limited to 100 parti-
cipants; representatives, of the
sponsoring groups in each state
were asked to select jointly one
or more home economists to re-
present their state. The Della
ware representatives were man,
ed by these organizations. The
specific objectives were to help
representatives to analyze the
roles of home economists in
helping people solve problems;
identify subject matter pertin-
ent to the problems; identify re-
sources needed for further guild
ance of home economists; and
explore and develop plans for
involving home economists and
resource people and institutions
in state communications and ed
ucation improvement activities.
The topics highlighted during
the seminar includ e d: the
learning process, communica-
ton process, social systems, So
cial action, inter-personal COM
munication, power structure and
status, and the two-step flow OF
communication.

Balloting g Begins
To Pick Uniform
National Flower

Along with the chief execu-
tives of many other states and
of many municipalities, Cover
nor ]. Caleb Boggs has pro-
claimed October as National
Flower Election Month and is
urging widespread participation
in the nationwide balloting be-
ing currently conducted under
the auspices of the Florists
Telegraph Delivery Association.
In a proclamation issued this
week at Dover, Governor Boggs
called attention to the fact that
Congress is considering adoption
of an official national flower and
pointed out that the results of
the F. T. D. A.-sponsored ma
tionwide poll will serve to guide
members of Congress in MAX
ing a selection.
During the past forty years,
members of Congress have per-
iodically attempted to settle up
on one flower as the National
Flower. Inasmuch as Congress
men, like most other folks, are
partial to those things found
in abundance in their home
states, variety of flowers have
been proposed as the Nations
Floral Emblem. During the re-
cent session of Congress, the
rose, marigold, black-eyed sus-
an, carnation and Shasta daisy,
as we'll as corn tassel and plain
old ordinary grass, were the
subjects of bills introduced for
the purpose of designating a
National Flower.
Early next year, members of
Congress will have access to
the broad sampling of public
opinion resulting from the cur
rent poll. While they won't be
obligated to designate the polls
No. l choice as the National
Flower, it is quite possible that
appropriate legislation, based on
the choice of a majority of those
participating in this months
Flower Election, may follow.
Anyhow-G overn or Boggs
feels that Delawareans should
be made acquainted with the
fact that they can participate
in the nationwide balloting, and,
in so doing, possibly influence
the choice of floral emblem
for the United States.

Tuesday with the Cathedral
Choral Society, the National
Symphony, Paul Galloway,
and an outstanding group of
Soloists. When Haydn re-
tired from his lifelong rou-
tine of writing music for the
Esterhazis and the London
impressarios, he settled down
to write for himself a mass
each year and two other Of
his most magnificent works
1.-THE Creation" and THE
Seasons"
Into these works he poured
the quintessence of his gen.
ius, his supreme mastery Of
the orchestra, his uncanny
knack of correlating phenom-
ena of the physical world
with a tune. a chord, or a
musical figure, his profound
human pathos, the magnifl-
cence and splendor Of his
choral and solo writing. The
works are now heard, when
at all, usually in the concert
hall. In the 10Th century
much fine church music was
barred from Cath Ollie
churches by Rome's strin-
gent rules of suitability, while
most reformed church e S
turned more and more to a
simple and popular musical
fare in which the participa-
ton of the congregation
could be hoped for if not ex-
pected.

NEWS OF MUSIC
.Hoydn's The Creation
At Cathedral Tuesday

tai music a place in our
musical life quite dispropor-
tionate to the relative effort
expended on 1t by composers.
The vast musical literature
before the age of Bach was
largely either for voices, or
was instrumental transcript
tons of songs, hymns or other
liturgical melodies. Most of
Bach's organ music has a
literary connection, most of
the later 10th century music
from Schumann and Berlioz
on has the impetus of words,
either actually sung, as in
lieder or opera. or implied, as
in tone poems or concert
overtures. Much Of the earli-
est instrumental music" had
texts written into the score.
We think of Beethoven and
Chopin as the instrumental
composers par excellence-as
to the latter we are correct,
but we will be surprised, on
looking over the volumes of
the complete works of Bee
thoven. to find how much is
vocal or otherwise program
matte. Even the instrumental
music of most classic COM
posers is impregnated with
non-musical illusions. clear
to everyone familiar with the
vocal idiom of the time.
Therefore it is fair exag-
geration to say that no pure
music exists, that is. music
with absolutely no outside
connotation, except a few
sonatas, quartets and SYM
phonleS. The earliest and
greatest popularizer Of in
strumental music was Joseph
Haydn, the father of the
symphony and string quar-
tet. And Haydn was so sue
cessful in these fields that
what are perhaps his most
characteristic and advanced
works-his oratorios and
masses-are almost unknown
today.
So much is preamble to the

Officers Show

Francis c. Peters and
Marlin Fenical, president and
vice-preSident, respectively,
Of the American Art League,
are having joint one-man
shows at the Arts Club,
through next Friday.
Mr.. Peters more than 20
landscapes and urban scenes
in the two reception rooms
depict places beautiful or in
teresting per Sc, or as seen
through the artists eyes.
They represent Washington
and nearby Virginia and
Maryland, the Adirondacks,
northern New York and
Canada, and several of them
have fetched awards.
Among the best are Rainy
Day." with skyscrapers, clear
ing skies and wet streets;
Adirondack Winter" with
rainbow-tinted snow; the
Whistlerian Buffalo Har-
Dor" Gan award winner: the
soft, lush Spring Snow" and
the contrasting hard earth
red Virginia Avenue"
Traditional
Mr.. Peters paintings are
traditional, faithfully por-
traying his subjects. with a
fair for color and overall
interest.
Mr.. Fenical's 10 oils, water
colors and gouaches in the
Arts Club gallery, range from
naturalistic to abstract. He
says that during the summer
he tries to get close to nature;
and his sunny water colors OF
boats and harbors are his
most traditional. His oils in
contrast, are modern to abb
Stract, and his subjects
varied. Don Quixote," for
example, is a faceted pyramid
