Five Washington composers presented some of their latest compositions before an unusually large audience at the Con- Country Club yesterday after- |y, “gop, noon. The composers were Dorothy Radde Emery, Jerome Williams, Ervine J. Btenson, Siegfried Scharbau and Ed- ward C. Potter. Dorothy De Muth Wat- son was chairman of the event. The opening group, composed of songs by Mrs. Emery, was sung by Harlan Randall, baritone. Of this group the first, “The Change,” with words written by the composer’s husband, Alden H. Emery, was the most unusual and at- tractive. The others were rather typical love songs. Jerome Williams was out of town, so ‘was unable to appear in person to play three preludes and & humoresque. Mildred Kolb Schulze, well known as accompanist, pianist’ and _composer, played these compositions. All three of the preludes are very short and written in entirely different style from that pre- viously recognized as Mr. Willlams. The influence of study under Herr Schlieder of New York undoubtedly comes through in these works. They are interesting from & transition in style point of view. ‘They are not of the old style, yet one cannot feel that they are definitely an individualized new style for this com- poser. Modern dissonance and other characteristics of what is recognized as *“new music” feature these works. “Hu- moresque,” written in the earlier vein, is a clever piece of writing and seems thoroughly keyed to the musical mes- sage it is to convey. Florence Sindell, soprano, oup of four songs written by tenson. Of these, “The Bell Buoy,” with words by Jessie Rittenhouse, is a distinctive, original and very attractive song.

Gigantic proportions attained by the | Padio Corporation of America in the | | spacs of slightly more than a decade ince it was formed as a communications company, only to plunge into manifold | other fields to which radio was adapta- | ble, are revealed in the annual report of the corporation which will be submitted today by Maj. Gen. Jam-s G. Harbord, chairman, and David Sarnoff, president The revelations of the report are par- | ticularly significant at this time when, largely stimulated by the Senate com- mittee which recently investigated radio trust” charges, the Department | of Justice is investigating the corpora- tion to determine whether its tremen- dous aggregation of patents and its | trade practices justify the allegations of monopoly often levelled against it. A total gross income of $182,137,739 | and a net income of $15,892,562 are re- ported for the year 1929. Total current assets at the end of 1929 were $90.809, 150, and total current liabilities a ratio of nearly 2.4 to 1. Pat- patent rights, contracts and good will are listed, as in previous years, at | only s1. Gross Income Increased; Net Declined. "| " The report reveals that gross income increased substantially over 1928, al- though net income declined. However, total assets increased greatly over cur- rent liabilities. The 1928 gross income | was $101.851,603 with net income that year $23,661,989. Total current assets in 1928, aside from plant and equipment, were $5! 50 and total current lia- bilities $16,073,015. Figures for preceding years are con- | siderably lower, indicating that the cor- | poration has strengthened its position | year by year. In 1925, for example, gross income to $5,794,614. Significant also in the 1929 report is the fact that figures | merged last year with the R. C. A, are included. Moreover, production in the set and income, has been integrated in R. C. A. Victor, Inc, and R. C. A. Radiotron, Inc., the first of which is 30 per cent owned by the General Electric Co. and 20 per cent owned by the Westinghouse Co. Formerly, this production was al- located to General Electric and Wmunx- gou;e, whose patents are used by R. The ramifications of the R. C. A. hold- ings and operations are manifold. Be- sides the set and tube subsidiaries, it owns or has large stock holdings in R. C. A. Communications, Inc., operating a transoceanic radio system; Radioma- rine oorpor-clnn of America, ship radio; Photophone, Inc., sound pic- tures: 'Rldlo KQlth-Omh!um Corpon. Institutes, Inc. dio sehools, lnd E T. Cunningh: vacuum tubes. Owns 50 Per Cent of N. B. C. Stock. In addition, it owns 50 per cent of the stock of the National Broadcasting Co., in which General Electric has 30 per cent and Westinghouse 20 per cent. The N. B. C. now has a subsidiary musical copyright company, known as the “Radio Music Co.” It also owns 50 per cent of the newly formed General Motors Radio Corpora- tion, and has a $2,000,000 loan interest in National Union Radio Corporation, a tube producing concern. In the radio set and tube fields the R. C. A. collects royalties by its patents from about 35 set manufacturers and 12 tube manufacturers licensed to make those products. was obviously & handicapped hearing. At least there seemed no doubt that . arbai knew what he was doing. One feels that the work should have ® second, mare propitious hearing, before ! Jjudge. The brief encore, in- sgire by a fable, “The Lightning Bug, Tree Frog and the Grasshopper,” won laughter and applause with its clever bit of writing for a trio of reeds. Mr. Potter's work for chamber or- chestra, entitled “Meditation on the Portrait of a Friend,” is good, musically writing, very easy to listen to, and un- doubtedly st.ronxly lnfluenced by Wagner, bringing memories of “Tristan” and “Slegfried” music, especially. It was, however, & very attractive closing number. Members of the U. S. Marine Band, who played this work under the leader- ship of Mr. Scharbau, were Herman R. Hoffman and Henry Weber, violins; Charles H. Tohla and Theodore Roth, second violins; Peter Hares, viola; Joseph Bernolfo, cello; Bartley Moore, H Rada, clarinet; Sllvio y : John D'Andelet, bassoon; Thaddeus Hess, horn; Prank Febbo, English horn, and Siefried Scharbau, bassoon. —HF tion, ‘theaters and vaudevil Al THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Two bassoons, an ish horn and an oboe presented part of the first two movements of ‘Quartet in G Minor.” Such music re- es an entire readjustment of the mental and listening attitude of the sudience. ‘There is the suggestion of | the Oriental, inevitably, in such music, | theater or luncheon snack, try Country Club.
