The District Commissioners yesterday sent to Congress a strong indorsement of the bill introduced by Representative Moore of Virginia, providing for a per- manent commission to study the ques- tion of fiscal relations between the and Federal Governments and make recommendations relating to them. The Commissioners asked that several amendments to be written into the bill, but the main outlines were approved. According to the bill, the commission shall consist of the chairmen of the Senate and House District committees, the chairmen of the Senate and House appropriations committees, one District Commissioner to be selected by the Board of Commissioners, the director of the Bureau of the Budget and three “actusl residents” of the District of Columbia interested in the subject and willing to serve without compensation. ‘The Commissioners in the report suggested that the residents should be selected from those who had been the three years next preceding their service on the commission actual residents of the District. They also suggested that the reports of the commission be made to every two years, instead of every four years, as provided in the bill, and that the report be thmufi: the District Commissioners, A limit of $20,000 was suggested for the amount to be spent annually for the securing of expert assistance and other expenses of the commission. ‘The Commissioners said, as to the had charge of the affair. Delegates ! from all precincts and bureaus in the department called on Mr. Dougherty in his office in the National Press Build- ing. Capt. Stott expressed the gratitude and appreciation of the men in department of the kindness and courtesy extended to them by Mr. Dougherty during his term of office. Mr. Dougherty was much affected, and made a brief speech the men for their unexpected gift. Snakes Born at 8: NEW YORK, April 29 (#).—Henry Bartels ordered six boaconstrictors shipped from South America. When he called at the ship for them, the captain yelled orders. for the production of those “53 snakes.” “Six!” insisted Bar- tels. “Well,” came back the captain, “47 were born en route. That's a break for you, Take them all.” “Staresman, merits of the bill, that the subject of fiscal relations was a highly contro- versial one, one which many shades of opinion had been expressed in re- cent years, and that any act looking toward some authoritative settlement of the problem would be a welcome one.

Ignoring a fracture of the cervical vertebrae, commonly known as a broken neck, sustained last night when he was thrown heavily to the mat at the Wash< ington Auditorium wrestling bouts, Jack Roller, 40-year-old wrestler of Seattle, Wash., refused hospital treatment and was removed to a downtown hotel. More than half an hour of the first fall had passed, when Londos, Greek strong man of cmn*o, secured a vise- like headlock on Roller and, stooping quickly forward, heaved his heavy op- ponent high in'the air. Turning over in mid-afr, Roller struck the mat with paralyzing force and sprawled inert in the middle of the ring. The referee immediately awarded the fall to Londos. A cursory examination at the ring- side revealed that Roller was “through” for the night, and Dr. I Rutkoski of Emergency Hospital responded to a call for an_ambulance. Dr. Rutkoskl, after examining Roller in the dressing room, diagnosed the jury as a fracture of the cervical verte- brae of the neck and advised immediate hospital treatment. However, despite the warning that the injury might prove fatal, Roller, who had fully revived, insisted upon being taken to a hotel. ‘This morning neither Londos nor Roller could be located at their alleged downtown addresses. It is believed that both men have left town. No police ac- tion was taken in the matter.. Apparently, since the bout was hotly contested throughout. both the wrestlers and authorities consider the incident as just one of the “breaks” of the game.

An audience filled the chamber music hall of the Library of Congress yes- terday afternoon to hear Hubert James Foss, music critic of London, discuss the state of musical production in England since the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury and plead especially the cause of the present-day composer of his coun- . Mr. Foss is a very positive young man with great sincerity and evident belief in every statement that he makes. He began his talk by explaining that the world generally has become so ab- sorbed in the products of the German school of composition that produced Brahms as a leading figure and was so enthusiastic over the works of tne ear- lier Beethoven and Bach that musical activities all over the world were but reflections of the influence of the Ger- man writers, In conservatories these writers were held up as models and young people trying to write music in other countries were not encouraged to develop either their own nationalistic or personal musical ideas, but rather to chase the shadow of the German Influence. Mr. Foss stated that he, as much as any other musician, thor- oughly admired and respected the works of Bach, Beethoven and Brahms, but that he felt, because of such widespread admiration worthy composers of other countries were neglected. He also, while discussing Teutonic influence on music is own country, alluded in very strong terms to the influence of Handel and Mendelssohn. At any rate, this young man who talked very convincingly for about an hour surely made out ‘a fine case for the English composer, There were those perhaps who felt that he did not pick a work that was happily suited to driv- ing his point home when he chose E. J. Moreland’s composition, the only one except the more amusing, shorter clavi- chord sketches, that he played as an example of modern work. It was in- teresting to learn that even in this day of radio it is easier to get a choir to- gether for the presentation of music than to get an audience to listen to them in England. There also were many other statements in this talk that gave much food for thought and in- spired one with the desire to later carTy on further research in these lines —obviously one of the objects of Mr. Foss' talk. As music critic and editor of the Oxford Press, Mr. Foss has won high recognition. He also is contributor to various leading musical magazines of “C].OBC Hauled“ A Story of the Sea By HENRY K.

In last evening’s “dedication” organ recital of the Hutchinson memorial organ of the Universalist Natior.al Memorial Church, a new instrument was added to Washington’s pipe organs. It will further serve the civic need when the American Guild of Organists give their “service” in this church with an organ recital next Monday evening. A large audience welcomed Dr. J. Warren Andrews, A. G. O., as soloist in this dedication recital. Organist of the Church of the Divine Paternity, New York city, Dr. Andrews is also past warden of the American Guild of Or- APRIL 29, 1930. ganists. He opened his program with Guilmant’s “Organ Symphony, Op. 43, giving the full-voiced power of the new organ a stirring demonstration, with also some exquisite effects in the pas- torale for the soft woodwinds of the organ. Eugene Dahl, tenor soloist of the church, sang the “Cujus Animam,” from Rossini’s “Stabat Mater,” with fine ef- fect. Mr. Dahl has a sure and musical tenor voice that holds its roundness in its highest tones, while he sings with authority and reverence. The Hutchinson memorial organ is a gift from the widow of the late Charles L. Hutchinson of Chicago, in memory of the first chairman for this church, which adds another “national” church to the National Capital. The Rev. Frederic W. Perkins, pastor of the church, introduced Dr. Andrews. J. MacB. FINAL ORGAN RECITAL. ‘The last of a series of organ recitals was given last night by T. Guy Lucas, M. A. Constab, at St. John's Church, Lafayette square, where Mr. Lucas is organist and choirmaster, Those who have not attended these recitals regularly have missed many delightful hours of organ music. The programs, never too long, are well ar- ranged, always containing something of Bach as well as some lighter numbers of the French and English schools. Mr, Lucas sets forth these works in a dignified and scolarly manner, and with & nice discrimination as to choice of flgf?/[l’e A p ngat a Prominent oy ¢ PeopLes DruG StoRES PRESCRIPTION SERVICE registration.
