LONDON. The Glynde-
bourne Festival Opera opened
its season with q handsome
production Of "Capriccio," by
Richard Strauss. It was not
only q Glyndebourne first but
also a premiere for the Brit
ish Isles. Strauss last opera
has for its plot a question
which is more important, the
words or the music?-and
into it he poured his artistic
credo, and embelliShed it
with the most golden sound.
1t is up to the producer to
animate the charming, talk
alive company in the count
ess' drawing room. and draw
from each individual his
passionate convictions about
art in human terms.
This Gunther Rennert did,
aided by a fine cast. AS the
young countess, Elizabeth
Soderstrom was usually per-
feet. Vocally, she conquered
q slight uncertainty in the
beginning to show her real
style in the final scene. Ben
no Kusche, as La Roche the
impressario, gave q sympa-
thetic portrait, rising vigor-
ously to the challenge Of the
central monologue. AS the
countess two suitors, Olivier
the poet and Flamand the
composer. Raymond Wolan-
sky and Horst Wilhelm were
excellent. There was enough
difference in the timber and
color of their voices to make
a good contrast. The great
actress Clarion had less of
the hustle Of q professional
about her than usual, but
Soma Cervana sang the part
well. To complete the sextet
Of principals, the Finnish
baritone Tom Krause sang
the role Of the count with
boyiSh gusto.

the United States and in more
than 100 other countries of the
free world were estimated yes
terday at $773 million, equal

total of $2,745,000,000.
The company has more than
100000 shareholders in the

tries and, based on an average
of 216,629,000 shares outstand-
ing, consolidated earnings for
the current period were equal

also cited a gain of five pei
cent in worldwide product

ates over the comparable 1861
period.

manager OF the ABA, reported
that association studies Of 100
banks of high probability and
100 banks of relatively low
probability indicated that one
of the big differences was in
their holdings of installment
credit.
However, there has been a
growing worry over credit de-
terioration," he added. Some
banks appear to be lengthening
terms. And as we all realize, to
a substantial extent, INSTALL
ment paper is unsecured.
Even automobile paper, the
most secured Of the major
types of installment credit, is
not completely secured during
a part Of the loans maturity"
he said.
1T is particularly worth re-
membering that the longer the
maturity Of loan the longer the
period in which the wholesale
value Of the automobile is less
than the outstanding balance
of the loan for the first nine
months.
ION a 36-month loan, the

period in which the loan is
less than fully secured is ex-
tended to % months. On a A.
month loan, the outstanding
balance is less than fully Sc
cured for over 81 months"
Not only do installment cred
it loans with longer maturities
extend the period Of risk, but
they also increase the extent
Of potential loss during the
early months in which most
losses are taken, Mr.. Colombo
pointed out.
"a recent study Of loss con-
centration indicated that Al
per cent of repoSSeSsions took
place during the first six
and over SO per cent
during the first year. Thus. it
is to the interest of banks to
minimize their loss exposure
during this period"
