MUTT AND JEFF
ON STAGE
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: In. a recent col
umn you are quoted as saying:
"Mr. Nixon described himself
as a progressive conservative
thereby identifying self
with the entire political stra-
tum from Henry Wallace to
William Mckinley"
Mr.. Wallace ran under the
heading Of a Progressive but
the term Progressive, as desig-
mating a political party, really
belongs to the era of Theodore
Roosevelt who ran as a Pro-
gressive in 1912 and who, in my
book. was a great forward
looking person.
Henry Wallace used the term,
but only for the hope of politi-
cal acceptance, and can hardly
be accepted as a real contender
for the designation.
Being a great admirer OF
Theodore Roosevelt and also OF
Richard Nixon, I cannot help
entering a strong protest

Comment Brightens
AU0rchestroC Concert

George Steiner. conductor
and teacher of the American
University Orchestra, last night
produced a concert embellished
with comment on each piece
by conductor, composer, audi
ence and, in one case, soloists.
The music by four local COM
posers somehow seemed to be
enhanced rather than delayed
by this treatment. My rule
Of thumb is that any talking
during a concert is invariably
and unequivocally bad; the
rule did not hold last night
when Mr.. Steiner. the COM
poser and the audience en-
gagged in informal and quite
entertaining discussion.
The most ambitious pieces
on the program were Esther
Ballou's Concertino for Oboe,
ably performed by Gerald Cots,
and Joseph Otis "Sat tir fc
Suite" The latter, by a mem
Der of George Washington
University'S modern dance de-
partment, is a sweet and sour
series of short rhythmic pieces,
quite tastefully orchestrated,

Gains Questioned

so long as present tensions
persist in racial relations, so
long as emotions run high over
the problem Of deSegregation
in the public schools, the very
discussion of the question
would bring more loss than
gain," DR.. Thompson said.
DR.. Herman Lee Turner of
Atlanta. who was elected
moderator Of the United Pres
byterian Church on Wednes-
day, yesterday announced the
appointment Of his defeated
opponent, the Rev. Elder G..
Hawkins Of New York, as vice
moderator. This is the first
time a Negro has been named
to the high post of vice mod
orator in the predominently
white church.
DR.. Eugene Carson Blake,
stated clerk of the United
Presbyterian Church, reported
that the denomination now
has 3,208,682 members, an in
crease of 50,l20 over the 1858
figure. He said the church has

star stan Writer

CLEVELAND. May 20.-A
Virginia Presbyterian leader
says there is a growing aware
ness throughout the South
that change is inevitable IN
race relations and that the
church must play an important
role.
DR.. Ernest Trice Thompson
of Richmond, retiring moder-
ator of the 0,OO0-member
Presbyterian Church, U.S.A.
Southern, said yesterday:
My travels through the South
this past year have convinced
me that even in those areas
where racial attitudes seem
most unyielding. there is a
stirring of the Christian con-
science, a growing recognition
that change is inevitable, and
that the church must play a
part in directing this change,
in reconciling races as well as
individuals, rather than in
striving merely to maintain the
status quo"
Work Toward Solution
DR.. Thompson told commits
sioners to the 172d General As
sembly of the United Presby-
terian Church, U.S.A., in the
Cleveland Auditorium: "The
church. my own branch of the
C h hurch, l am convinced,
through its ministers and
through innumerable laymen,
Is doing far more to bring
about a Christian solution of
the problems that perplex us
than is generally recognized.
I do not have to justify my
optimism, but I believe that a
solution of our problems in the
South will be found sooner than
is generally anticipated"
But DR.. Thompson, a Union
Theological Seminary of Rich
mond professor, dashed any
hopes Of merger between the
two Presbyterian Church bodies
in the near future. The South
ern church broke away fro0
the Presbyterian Church,
U. S. A. in May, 1861, over
the slavery question. Many
attempts have been made since
then to reunite the two
churches but all have failed.
The last effort toward mer-
ger was made in 1855.
