RELIGION VITAL DECLARES DUCE State Supreme, However, and Will Tolerate No Inter- ference, He Says. By the Associated Press. PARIS, June 18.—“Religion is in- dispensable, not only for the people but for the elite and for science, which it completes,” Premier Mussolini is quoted as saying in a special inter- view which will be printed by Le Journal today. The interview is devoted to & dis- cussion of the 'present relations be- tween Italy and the Vatican. “I wish that there be religion throughout the countrv,” the Duce is quoted as saying, “and that the children may be taught their cate- chism. I will send them to communion in a body on Sunday in their. Ballilla uniforms, or otherwise. “For that I let the priests work; that's religion. The rest is politics, and politics—that’s me. State Held Inviolable. “I will not admit that anybody, lb- solutely anybody, touch in that which belongs to the state. formula is clear; everything wi state, nothing outside the state, nothing inst the state. “The child, as soon as he is old a'one. No sharing is possible. y this will be judg>d Spartan doctrine carried to an extreme. One cannot deny, however, that it is clear. We are in process of reconstructing Italy— a great Ifaly. It is a colossal task, such as I do not believe has cften been tried. The antique city has nothing in common with the naton of more than 42,000,000 inhabitants.” According to the interviewer, Jacques de Marsillac, Mussolini denied the aim of Fascism was incompatible with the | teaching of the Christian religion. Support for Religion. “To arrive at its ends,” he said, *“religion needs the support of that au- thority which comes from us alone.” He said he had given numerous warnings to the Catholic Action Or- ganization. “At the head of the move- ment,” he said, “were found the failures | and malcontents of the Popolari party. ‘They have it in for us. Perhaps that's natural. Their attitude made itself felt in the Catholic Action. The Vatican has been warned against the danger that policy holds for it—a reawakening of anti-clerical opinion which it well knows exists. Nothing was done.” STEAMER TI:'HP PLANNED Eastern Star Party Will Go on Out- ing June 27.

Phy- at m Hall NE of the iniportant facts bo\lt E'eanor Blum, young nnfl extraordinarily ulenb- ed pianist, is that she has not yet finished her m\ln- cal education. Oply recently is is said that Miss Blum rather amazed Mr. Hoffman by her pianistic vir- tues and thereupon she was awerded a lchohrshlp n the Curts Inst tute, in Phllldel- hia. Last night, fore an eager and interested audience at Bar- ker Hall, she demonstrated which is as sound as the rock of Gllbraltar. Coupling this with a manner which is fres from poise and affectation the young artist predis- poses her audiences in her favor by seeming sincer: rather than cog- nizant of her unusual talents. In- stead of bristling with, for instance, Chopinesque bombast, weaving hither and yonder after the mann-r of many first pianistic ladies of the land, this young lady assumes an attitude almest of repose and plays her program _stra’ght frém the shoulder. Tnat she was successful last night in the vorious manifesta- tions of her art was more than ap- parent. ‘She is gifted beyond the usual—way, way beyond that—and she should some day be heard from— as she has, &8 a 'matter of fact, been already. Last night'sfprogram was strictly “classical.” Bach, Beethoven, Schu- bert, Mendelssohn and Chopin was its substance. No modern whim- siana was apparent. Miss Blum played the “Two Inventions” and the “Prelude and Fugue” correctly— not brilliantly—and she played the iargo from the Beethoven “Sonata in D Major” a trifle listlessly. When, h-wever, she reacned the Schubert “Imoromptu"—possibly before in the Beethoven “Rondo’®—she assumed true command of all her powers, and from there on the program was of exceptionally fine caliber. This in- cluded such exacting selections as the Mendelssohn “Rondo Capriccioso,” the Chopin “Fantasy Impromptu,” “Nocturne” ana_ “Valse Brilliante” end an encore which closed the pro- gram with especial eclat. E. de S. MELCHER. Von Unschuld University Presents Pupil Recital. 'HE recital of the preparatory school affiliated with the Von Unschuld University of Music was held Jast night at the ball room of the Women's City Club before an audience that crowded the hall to capacity. The pupils, ranging from 7 years old to 12 years, showed an exactness ‘in every detail technically and musi- cally. The musical understanding of Beethcven's sonata played by Janice Levitt, the temperament in the Polish dance played by Marylin Hart, the sweet tone with which Maryline Yates interpreted Schu- mann’s “Slumber Song,” the esse with which Master Skinner played Schubert’s “Moment Musical” and the already remarkable ripeness of Master Phillips in his rendition of “Valse Lents,” by Schutt, would have honored many an older pianist. Janet Cunneen did well by the Spanish dance by Moskowsky, Kath- leen Norris’ rendition of Poldini's "Dmclng Doll” was excellent, and splendid gradation of tone pro- duc by Evelyn Nichol in Grieg’s “Dance of the Dwarfs” and the well accentuated rhythm in the charm- ing “Passepted,” by Delibes, played by Elizabeth Van Wagenen, deserve especial Ynm.

In addition to the two large carriers, the Lexington and the Saratoga, we have under construction the Ranger, an air- craft carrier of 13,800 tons. The Lang- ley is experimental and is not included in the tonnage limitation. “Therefors, to accomplish complete construction of carriers and flying deck cruisers under the London treaty, and assuming the now accepted size vessels, we must construct four additional ca: riers and eight flying deck cruisers. other construction is as essential to our fleet in ofder to give it parity with the | fleets of other countries and to m: it a well rounded unit.” ‘Today, Mr. Ingalls told the engineers, up to WEVD, shall be allowed to continue broadcasting. ~An examiner recom- mended the license not be renewed be- cause of alleged operation irregularities | wa and the hck of proper supervision and management.

British trade propagands in Argen- tina is described as a “veiled attack on Argertine-American friendship” in s study by George J. Eder, chief of the Commerce Department’s Latin Ameri- can divisi-n. In his report, one of four being spon- sored by the Carnegle Peace Founda- tion, Eder named Sir Malcolm Robert- son, British Ambassador to Argentina, as a chief proponent of the slogan, “Buy from those who buy from us.” He also said the visit of the Prince of ‘Wales recently was designed primarily as an attack upon Ameriran mercantile supremacy in the Argentine. “The most skillful and influential commercial p ndist in Argentina,” the study found, “are British states- men, merchants, bankers, industrialists and others, whoy for years have en- vored to instill and wield influence . favor of British goods. ‘During the past several years this b R an agency up Great Britain, has at times assumed a more disquieting aspect in its veiled attack on Argentine-American friend- ship, and while its influence in trade has been slight, its ultimate effect on international relations, if persisted in, can only be unfortunate.” Eder added he believed American merchants and manufacturers have lit- tle to fear from British competition, because one-fourth of America’s Argen- Une exports are goods which Great Britain does not manufacture and half of them are of such a nature that British factories cannot turn them out now at competitive prices. He pointed to a reorganization of Great Britain's as cers will be installed on July 10. * why Frigidaire is the advanced refrigerator trol, the Hydrator and the Quickube Ice Tray.
