Caribbean
Plan Okayed
BY the Associated Press

An agreement was signed
here late yesterday to set up
a Caribbean Organization to
continue cooperation among
the nonindependent areas OF
the Caribbean.
The new organization sue
ceeds a similar body, the Carl
bbean Commission, which was
created in 1916 to encourage
economic and social develop
ment in the Caribbean areas
owned by France, the Neither
lands, Britain and the United
States.
The successor organization
is being set up because of con-
Stitutional changes which have
taken place in the area since
1946.
The United States, Britain
and the Netherlands will be-
come observers on the new unit
but will not be members as they
were on the old one.
Also, the new organization
will add cultural affairs to the
economic and social matters
which have been handled by
the outgoing commission.
Signing the agreement were
Secretary of State Herter and
the Ambassadors of Britain
France and the Netherlands
for their respective countries
The agreement is still subject
to ratification according to
domestic constitutional pro-
ceSSeS.
The Caribbean Organization
with headquarters in Puerto
Rico, is to have an annual
budget of about 100000. OF
this, about one-third is to be
contributed by Puerto Rico.
The other members are:
France, in behalf of French
Guiana, Guadeloupe and Mart
Unique; the Netherlands An
titles, Surinam, the Bahamas,
British Guiana, British Hon
duraS, the British Virgin Is
lands, the West Indies, Com
monwealth of Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands of the United
States.

Beethoven and Mozart have
not always been thought the

or sooner or later, Byrd's time
will come.
Byrd could do everything

Oboist Donald Hefner. as
sisted by an excellent septet Of
local musicians, was heard yes
terday afternoon at the Phillips
Gallery In q very enjoyable
hour Of music for solo oboe,
strings and voice.
For me. the high spot Of the
all-too-b brief concert was the
ever-fresh and lovely Wedding
Cantata, very sensitively sung
by soprano Mary Ann Stable.
and with warmly tender oboe
obbligati by Mr.. Hefner. It was
a genuine treat to hear the
continue part handled so neatly
by the Rev. Russell Woollen.
and the entire piece gained
sparkle and charm because Of
the small but eloquent instru-
ment that he used. Built by
Carl Tucker, it has been heard
by Washingtonians before in
Opera Society productions.
The concert began with o
quintet for oboe and strings by
Bernard Hoffer. who was In the
large audience and acknowl-
edged its cordial reception. The
quintet struck me as a rather
unpretentious work in q mildly
contemporary neoclassic idiom,

the oboist with some very nice
lines and has Q few jazzy and
lyric touches.
After the intermission, Mr..
Hefner was heard In the skill

and strings by the English COM
poser Arthur Benjamin which
he called q concerto" Mr.,
Benjamin's craft is so polished
that, unless one knew about its
origins beforehand, 1t would be
very difncult to discover any
trace Of the original keyboard
feeling.
The quality Of the instrument
tai playing by Mr.. Hefner and
his associates was very high in
deed. and Miss Stable, better
known in opera than in concert,
revealed q new facet Of hel
artistry.
