ard Strauss "Four Last Songs" She
was obliged to cancel q Town Hal
recital in New York scheduled foI
last month.
Born on March II. 1907, the dau-
ghter Of a New Rochelle grocer
Miss Davis worked as q seamstress
to help pay for her early vocal les
sons. She made concert appear
ance at this time with her sister,
Marie Davis, a pianist, when they
were billed as the Davis sisters.
First Sang ut Musucum
In 1941, Miss Davis came to the
attention Of Louise Crane, daughter
Of Winthrop Murray Crane, q for
mer Governor of Massachusetts
and United States Senator. Miss
Crane heard Miss Davis sing when
the latter was working for her as
a seamstress, and gave her a
chance to sing in a series of Cof-
fee Concerts that she was sponsor
ing in the Musical of Modern Art
in New York. 1t led to her New
York appearance in an eighteenth
century opera, "The Chaplet."
A recital debut in Town Hall in
October, 1912, won Miss Davis her
first major acclaim. Two years
later, when she sang her third re-
cital in the same auditorium, the
audience overlooked on to the
stage.
One Of the most important events
in her career came when the League
of Composers commissioned work
for her from Lukas Foss. 1t was a
solo cantata called "The Song of
Songs" and Miss Davis sang the
first performance with the Boston
Symphony under the direction of
Serge Koussevitzky, in the spring
of 1947. She became identified with
the work and sang it repeatedly
with other major orchestras in this
country and abroad.
Toured Europe In '48
Miss Davis gave her first re-
cital in New York's Carnegie Hall
in 1948 and made her first Euro
pean tour that same spring, giving
twenty-seven concerts in thirteen
countries. When she returned, she
sang at the Berkshire Festival in
Tanglewood, Mass.
At her Town Hall recital in 1850
Miss Davis again introduced a new
work, Vittorio Rieti's give English
Songs" When the Westchester
County Center celebrated its twen-
ty-fifth anniversary in 1866, she
was soprano soloist in a perform
ance of Verdi's Requieum." The
next year she sang with the New
York Philharmonic under the late
Dimitri Mitropoulos.

Senator Kennedy.
Mr.. Hayes of the Machinists,

Senator Morse of Oregon "in

Morse is given no chance of

Hayes privately supports Sen

promptly with moves to force
a committee meeting or. if nee
essary later. to file a discharge
petition. Such a petition filed
by Judiciary Committee Chair
man Celler, Democrat of New
York, principal sponsor of the
bill, repeatedly obtained 210 of
the 2l9 required signatures
early last month before the
Rules Committee finally re-
leased the original House bill.
When the bill with Senate
amendments formally comes
back to the House, probably to-
morrow, Mr.. Celler could ask
unanimous consent for the
House to act on it Immediately.
Or some other member could
request unanimous consent to
send the two versions to con-
ference.
CelIer's Intention
Neither course is contem-
plated. Mr.. Celler intends to
ask Mr.. Smith for a Rules
Committee rule" under which
the measure could be debated
by the House under time and
parliamentary restrictions.
Mr.. Smith could delay mat
ters for several days or even
weeks if he were so inclined.
House leadership sources in
dicated confidence, however,
that the bill would be on its
way to the White House at the
close of House business April 20.
The main reasons for the
leadership decision against
bringing up the bill in the
House this week are the Holy
Week and Passover observances,
the Illinois primary Tuesday, a
previous agreement to conduct
no roll calls before Wednesday
of this week. and the expected

Some OF WashingtonS big
time gamblers still operate their
numbers businesses even when
in jail. a top police official said
yesterday.
Inspector John B. Layton
said that in many cases when
police send a numbers banker
to jail, the gambler will have
one Of his lieutenantS take over
until he has served his term.
In the fight against the
banker. detectives are bending
their main efforts at eliminat-
ing about IL known big-time
operators" the inspector said.
He said a list includes some
who are now in prison or await
ing sentence, and others who
have recently been released.
In the first category, Inspec-
tor Layton listed William
(Snags) Lewis, Pete Gianaris.
and Julius Silverman. Most of
the top IL have past gambling
records, he said.
Trouble Shooter"
Inspector Layton is a special
investigator for Police Chief
Robert v. Murray, a trouble
shooter" post he assumed a
month ago. Before that, he
commanded the gambling and
liquor squad for many years.
The Inspector estimated that
900 persons are involved in
the numbers racket in the
District. He did not attempt
to estimate the dollar value of
the numbers business, but said
the racket is widespread"
Turning to the problem Of
wiping out the gambling rack
cts, Inspector Layton said one
of the toughest hurdles for
police is "the long, drawn-out
procedure" in developing evi-
dence that will stand up in
court.
A second major factor work.
ing against police, Inspector
Layton said, is racket riches.
There is enough of a re-
turn so that the hackers can
live easy and they are willing
to take the chance of going to
jail" he said. The rewards
are too attractive"
The big-time operators are
well aware 1T is difficult for
US to build cases" against
them, Inspector Layton said.
Difficulties Increasing
The difficulties are increas-
ing, he said. One trick that
frequently illustrates police at
tempts to move against a
gambling operation is the gam
blers' shift to an entirely new
location before police can act.
This happens often while police
are in the process of developing
a case-which sometimes can
take months-and they find
that the painstaking work has
been in vain.
In one case, Inspector Layton
said. a gambling outfit moved
its headquarters out of the Dis
trict to Anne Arundel County
although its betting revenue
continued to come from District
customers.
Merely making arrests is not
a sufficient deterrent, Inspec-
tor Layton said. Good court
cases with resulting stiff SEN
tences are "the most effective
type Of enforcement" But
getting sufficient evidence takes
time.
Inspector Layton said the
numbers operation in the Dis
trict is backed by local operators
entirely and there is no evidence
Of any national syndication.

ARMS

COnLlnue0 FROM FlrSt rage
deal on the suspension of nego-
tiations was made in the last
day or so. The length Of the
recess was the point picked out
by Secretary Herter yesterday
for attack.
Accepts Decision
IT personally believe the re-
cess is too long" he said, but
in view Of the agreement
reached, I shall not press for a
reopening of the matter"
That was one of two sentences
in Mr.. Herter'S statement. In
the first sentence he virtually
conceded he had been wrong in
blaming the Russians for TAX
ing the lead in demanding a
long recess. In contrast to what
he had told his news conference
Friday he said the agreement
actually was the result "of q
general understanding among
all 10 delegations rather than
on the initiative of any one OF
them"
Mr. Eaton had made that
same point at Geneva. In ef-
feet, Mr.. Eaton said Mr.. Herter
had not got the facts straight
He put it this way: ANY in
dication that (the recess re-
suited from Soviet urging could
only have come from a mis-
understanding"
Failed to Get Clearance
How a misunderstanding
could have arisen over one OF
the central facts of an issue
which has been discussed for
many days was not explained
This is the same kind of ques-
ton that arose about Mr..
Eaton's acceptance of the
agreement for a five weeks re-
cess to Mr.. Herter's obvious
surprise.
In the way officials privately
beat about the bush when
asked how this could have hap
pened there was an implica-
tion that Mr.. Eaton had made
the agreement without check
ing with Washington for final
clearance. If that happened it
would explain how Secretary
Herter took a line Friday which
was contradicted within "a
hours by Mr.. Eaton's announce
ment.
Another point which arose
concerned the reason for Mr..
Herter'S attachment of i'm
portance to the issue of the
length of recess in contrast
with Mr.. Eaton's evident con-
clusion that it was not a
particularly important issue.
Mr.. Herter treated it as q
political question of signifi-
canoe. He told his news con-
ference he was puzzled about
the Soviets' desire for a long
recess but thought perhaps
they wanted to stall the Geneva
negotiations while setting the
stage for Premier Khrushchev
to come UP with some kind of
idea at the summit"
Other officials said Mr.. Eaton
and his advisers in Geneva did
not attach great Importance
to the duration of the recess.
So, it was reported, when Mr..
Eaton saw that a majority of
the 10 countries favored a long
recess he went along with the
majority.
