By the Associated Press. Although the Senate adjourned yes- | terday until it is called together again | by President Hoover to take up farm | relief and tariff revision, several of | fation during the recess. ‘The Brookhart post office subcom- tion of Federal patronage in the South, | got away to an early start yesterday. The Indian affairs subcommittee, | which has been delving into the Gov- | ernment's treatment of Indians, expects to add more chapters to its investiga- tion with hearings in Washington and | perhaps in the West. It still has the Jackson Barnett case before it, and Charles B. Rogers, one of the attorneys in that now celebrated litigation, has the wealthy Creek Indian's white wife, | and then married him. ‘The Waterman subcommittee, charged William B. Wilson, Democrat, of the | right of William S.

MuUsIcC AWLTRO TOSCANINI CONDUCTS. The Italian genius, Arturo Toscanini, | returned to Washington yesterday aft- ernoon for his first and only app2arance here during the season, and, as a re- sult, those present at the National | ‘Theater enjo; the most thoroughly satisfying concert of the year. Al- though the weather of Inauguration fg day still clung to the Capital City, an|§ audience that reached the standing- # room limits, paid homage to the great conductor. Applause after each selection reached ovation proportions, and, at the end, there were shouts of “bravo.” It was a real occasion. It seemed as though Signor Toscanini had brought a new orchestra to Wash- ington. The New York Philharmonic- Symphony Orchestra has ben heard | heve before this seascn under two other conductors, but on neither oc- casion did it sound so alive in every secticn with such complete, instanta< necus response on the part of each man in the orchestra as was the case yesterday. There was buoyancy as well as perfected practice noticeable from the first note of the Mozart “Haffner” symphony. Throughout the symphony, eapecially in the lovely third movement, whe minuet, the exquisite blend of snaded tone and consistently main- taned lightness so characteristic of ar- ustic reading of the works of the Salz- burg master were dominant features. ‘The novelty to Washington was the “Feste Romane,” a recently completed work by Ottorino Respighi, which his countryman, the maestro of La Scala, | |§ brought with him in manuscript form to give the first American performance soon after his arrival in New York. This is the third and final of a group of works that are musical tapestries of Roman history and natural surround- ings. The first two, “Fountains of “Pines of Rome,” tent, are both equally different from this latest work. “Roman Festivals,” opens with a barbaric description in brilliant, almost blatant, tonal colors of the arena in the time of Nero when the devouring of Christian martyrs by wild beasts had a prominent place in the entertainment of the publie. The second movement, “The Jubilee,” de- picting weary pilgrims to Rome en- joying their first sight of the Eternal City, amid a paen of worshiping ex- altation and the clamor of church bells, again sounds the religious note. In the final movement, “Epiphany,” the pagan suggestions of the first move- ment are elaborated and amolified. The | § third movement, “October Excursions,” does not seem quite to belong with the other three, in its very romantic and patsoral mood. It is lovely music. The troubadour is suggested in the clever bit of mandolin music. The entire work is programmatic, frankly and me- lodiously so. It is not great music in an inspirational sense, perhaps, but it is exceedingly fine of its kind and certainly touches inspirational altitudes In the pilgrim movement. ‘The impressionistic beauties of De- bussy’s “Iberia” were followed by the most artistic rendition of the sonorous overture to Wagner’s “Tannhauser” that it has been the lot of one hearer, at least, to have heard. It was not the f music or the orchestra that lifted this nrogram to its great heights; Toscanini, ‘who has the astoundi memory and pains-taking diligenc found only in a genius. H.F. MIKSA MERSON AT ARTS CLUB. A large audience gathered at the Arts | Club last night and enthusiastically re- | § ceived the piano recital program offered by Miska Merson, a young Hungarian pianist, who has been in the city for the past two seasons. Mr. Merson has most facile fingers and evident knowledge of technique. His playing indicated that he is of the type who relishes the reading of com- the more delicate compositions that | make most demand upon imaginative | interpretation. He seemed at his best | in the Cesar Franck “Chorale and | Fugue,” playing the fugue particularly | well. The Brahms “Intermezzo” found sympathetic interpretation at his hands and he seemed to especially enjoy pre- senting the Bartok number. The Tschaikowski familiar waltz won much applause and the old dance themes of Mr. Merson’s own composi- tions, which followed the formal pro- gram, aroused appreciative response from the audience. The program followed & dinner at which Mr. Merson was the honored | guest, and it seemed to be one of the| | most " successful of the musical events | given at the club this season.
