PERNT STGKES ONVOTEFORD.C: Regulations Specify, How-| ever, Vision of Auto Driver Must Not Be Obscured. The Police Department today advised the election day demonstration commit- tee of the Joint Committee on National | Representation for the District of Co- jumbia that police regulations permit the display of stickers on the wind- shields of automobiles, “provided the vision of the driver is not obscured thereby.” This information was given after nu- merous inquiries had been received at the committee’s headquartets, in the Bond Building, from Washingtonians who desire to know whether or not the stickers being used by the coramit- | tee could be legally snown on wird- | ghields as well as on other parts of | their cars. The committee has two types of stick- ers ready and availaole for zll who d office, Chamber of Commerce, of Trade, and other places in the ci end is anxious to get as many Was ington people as possible to use these stickers on their cars between now and election day. Organizations are in- vited to communicate with the com- mittee headquarters in the Bond Build- hon: number Main 3497, for of thess stickers as they may desire. One of the stickers reads: “Let| Washington Vote for President.” and | the other, “Give Washington l‘l}!'.il:n’xalhE Representation.” The committee has about eompleted detailed plans for various demonstra- | tions between now and election day and intends to enact several features through the news reels and other na- tion-wide photographic agencies to draw attention of the Nation as a whole that the District of Columbia is the only place in the United States where Amer- ican citizens cannot vote on election day.

Voters in the District who favor | Herbert Hoover’s election were urged to | arrange to vote on election day, either by going to thelr homes or mailing | their ballots, by Col. Edward Clifford, | who gave a brief taik last night over | radio station WMAL, under the auspices | of the National Hoover Minute Men “There are thousands of persons in the District who have legal residence in some of the States and can vote," Col. Clifford said. "It is to this group that I address my earnest appeal that they either go home and vole for Her- bert Hoover or else arrange to vote for him by mail. “It Is not at all unlikely that in some States the result may turn upon the votes which are cast by persons resid- ing in Washington,” he added. “I therefore call _upon the Republican voters in the District of Columbia to be alert and on th= job and to do their part in the way of voting and gelting other persons to vote the Republican ticket on November 6."

No finer artist could have been chosen than Josef Hofmann, pianist, to pre- | gent the opening program of the ne v | ‘Washington Co-cperative Artisis’ Con- cert Course at the Washington Audi- crium last night. Dr. Dudley, ths new manager, is to be congratulated. Mr. Hofmann is 2 great favorite with the majority of people. He is orie of the few great artists in the world today, and he played his program last night superbly. The audience numbered at least 4,000. | It was a little slow in gathering and getting settled, and, by a mistake, the artist was permitted to go out to the stage about 10 minutes before the au- dience was seated. Mr. Hofmann, being | a veteran of concert work since the tender age of five years, showed a su- preme patience and waited until even the las sg‘-lsnlers were seated before beginning his program. As for the music—what the writer could hear of it for the talking that eddied unceasingly about the vicin- ity—it was delightfully chcsen and per- formed. The Handel “Harmonious Blacksmith” was an excellent opening number, and Mendelsohn's scherzo was a tributs to the amazing dexterity cf Mr. Hofmann's wizard fingers. The Schumann “Carneval” i one of the longest and mcst trying of virtuosity- testers. Mr. Eofmann met the test nobly, but, even so, there were those whose eyes would wander to the provoc- atively clever “Notes on Program Notes” that Mr. Engel wrote so at- tractively, even though the latter can- tained the admonition that the audi- ence should #refrain from any attempt at reading either program notes or ad- vertisements” during the performance. The Chopin group was much more popular and the beauties of the “Barca- rolle” and the “Sherzo in B Minor” | particularly won enthusiastic applause. In each of these selections, Mr. Hof- mann found individuel ways to point out beauties with new color, although always playing _traditional Chopin. Three famiilar shorter Chopin num- bers were the encores and, again, after the last group, M. Chopin provided the exquisite “Berceause” that sent the zudience home. “M. Dvorsk: (Mr. Hofmann in dis- | guise), provided the pianist with a love- | 1y bit of writing—suave, elusive yet! with* firm exact foundation, in “Sznctu- ! ary” There wers many who would | have liked it repeated on ths spot. | The Russian modernist, Prokofyeff, who writes gaily, with his tongue in his cheek, gave a “March” filled with the buoyant fascination of youth and| Joy. Liszt, dramatist of the pianists, pro- vided ths resplendent brilliancies of “Terantella,” played with vigor, and that marvelous achievement cf power- ful tones without banging that is a Hofmann characteristic. Never has this | pienist, who 1s now director of a lead- | ing conservatory of music in this coun- | iry, been heard to botter edvantags 25| an artist in the National Capite!.
