The membership of the American del- egation to the approaching Disarma- ment Conference will be announced soon by President Hoover, who is confi- dent over prospects for success of the arley. PThe chairmanship is the most § portant post to be filled, ang there is an increasing belief that Secretary of State Stimson will not be overlooked. However, some difficulty is being ex- | perienced by the President in selecting other suitable and prominent men who are willing and able to serve during the many months the conference may sit_in Geneva. Before his recent death, Senator Dwight W. Morrow, a del ite to the London Conference and au of the treaty framed there, had been chosen as a delegate. And, at the Preéident’s re- quest, he had drawn up a list of pros- | pective delegates. | List Drafted by Morrow. included Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of War. John W. Davis, Democratic candidate for the presidency in 1924; Benator Reed of Pennsylvania, who attended the Lon. i don parley, Senator Robinson of Ar- kansas, Democratic Senate leader and hia party's delegate at London; Sen tor Borah of Idaho, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator Swangon of Virginia, ran| ing minority member of that committee However, intimated through friends that he would prefer not to be asked to serve; Reed told friends he would rather not have to go abroad in February, because of his Senate du- ties and next year's elections; Robin- son let it be known that he felt about the same way about it; Morrow tolg his advisors he thought Boral name would have to be passed over, and only Swanson’s name remains on the list. Gibson and Wiison Likely. Pive or six delegates will be chosen, and there are indications that Hugh 8. Gibson, Ambassador to Belgium, and R. Wilson, Minister to Switzer- land—both of whom represented the United States on the League of Na- tions’ Preparatory Disarmament Com. mission—will be named. The difficulty in picking the delegates is that important personages who would lend distinction to a delegation and bear influence in obtaining 3enate ap- proval of any action taken are not overly anxious to leave home for so long a period. | | WILL PRESENT PLAYLET Boy Scouts of Troop No. 8 Plan to Perform at Conference. A George Washington playlet, “The Search for the Symbol,” will be pre- sented by Scouts of Troop No. 8 at the annual conference of Scout leaders to be held Sunday afternoon, November 22, in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium. The troop is conducted by All Souls’ Ept copal Church. The playlet, written especially for use during the Bicentennial, centers around a troop of Scouts seeking a symbol by which they may pay tribute to Washington. This will be its first presentation. An address by E. Urner Goodman, program director of the National Coun- cil of the Boy Scouts of America, and other presentations are planned _for the leaders’ meeting. GEN.

BY E. de 5. MELCHER. Washington's rocks and shoals against which presious symphonic organizations have hurled themselves in vain, yester- day of warm appreciation and more native (and otherwise) sons of this soil acclaimed the launching of the National Symphony Orchestra and, |as led by the guiding spirit and baton of Hans Kindler, watched this grand organization plow through but a mini- mum of troubled seas and on into calm, majestic waters. At 10 minutes of 5 yesterday after- noon in Constitution Hail all fears toat Washington would never have the pride of symphonic ownership were forever silenced. At that moment Mr. Kindler. beaming with what must have been a premonition of success, ascended nimbly to the small acre which is his platform dozen or more times while | great bursts of applause resounded through the hall.

The Beethoven “Fifth Symphony,” which followed, was perhaps too much to chew at the first mouthful. Tbe | “andante con moto” flowed smoothly | and melodiously, the cellos doing their | work evenly even if without great in- | spiration, but the whole was rather | 1 e TUESDAY, NOV White House.

Her close-fi hat was of the same shade of felt, with | & soft-rolled brim of darker brown | s _dull gold orpament in | The generous brown fur | collar fitted well about the neck and | matched the deep cuffs flaring at the elbow. Mrs. Taft's presence and interest in the symphony is & happy omen, she hav- ing_been a prime mover and arden worker for the organization and estab- | lishment of the Cincirmati Symphony | Orchestra, now one of the leading or- | ganizations of it kind. She sat in the seat of honor in Mrs. Hoover's box, a gracious act of the present mistress of the White House to the former Pirst Lady of the Land The Minister of the Netherlands, Mr. J. H. van Royen, whn represents Mr Kindler's tive land at this Capital, has taken a box for the season and had among his guests yesterday the coun- selor of the legation, Mr. L. G. van Hoorn. Mrs. Kindler Here for Concert. Mr. Walter Briace Howe, chairman of the Executive Committee, and Mrs. | Howe had with them in their box Mrs.| | Hans Kindler, who came from Phila- | delphia for the concert, and was ac- | companied by her young daughter, Helen Yvonne Kindler, who sat in the box with Mr. und Mrs. Willlam J.

Audience Tensely Expectant. The 75 musiclans, who had preceded their leader onto the platform, and had heard the best wishes of applause re- sounding in their ears even approach of the maestro, sat motionless |as that initial zero of sllence was reached after the long drawn-out huzza of the tuning “A.” Never was mute expectancy more tensely drawn than en |the face of the audience. It was the moment before what it.knew would be | either long life or death to the most pretentious musical scheme ever drawn up for the Nation's Capital. Kindler raised his baton. The men stiffened in their chairs. And almost | before such a thing seemed possible the excited sweep of Carl Maria von Weber's overture to “Der Freischutz” |had filld the hall. And almost in the same breath, as those first horns, and then the violins, and finally the thundering sonority of all the instru- | ments soared through the hall, there | was born what should be eventually one of the highest-ranking symphonic | orchestras in the country. | There is little question that Kin- | dler's idealistic scheme for bringing | musical solace to this city has been rewarded. In that initial selection, which, though a trifle brittle in spots, was still & daring rendition of one of the most treasured overtures, he proved to doubters that what has seemed like an impossibility has been achieved. | The tone was smooth, the tempo dig- | nified and the whole an amazing ex- hibition of what can be done through the sheer force of well placed ambi- |tion and personality. Accomplishes Great Feat. | For Kindler has been heckled to the | skies. He has been forced not to ask | for help, but to plead for it. In cer- tain sections of the city, where lie the keys to musical “mechanics,” he has been told one thing and then another, and his soul, which should have been his own, has many times had to buckle under its le and haul out a small and unwilling flag of truce. The fact that he was able to assemble such a large orchestra and knit it into such splendid form in such a short time is nothing short of marvelous. Those who remember him a month past trudging the pavements disconsolately at the latest news that seyen possible members of his organizations had been taken from him, or even a shorter time ago with his men merely signed on the dotted line without so much as having been sha realize the great feat. he lms accom- plished. Y The first wave of his baton and some sort of a feeling of surety came upon that audience. And then one realized, too, that he was doing “a Sto- kowski.” The music lay unopened be- fore him—it lay rather at the tip of his fingers and at the tip of the baton —he was leading the overture without benefit of anything but his own pros digious musical memory. must have struck deep into the fiber | of this genial leader. He smiled and he bowed, he bowed and he smiled— he bowed to Mrs. Hoover, he bowed to his men, he made them stand, he shook hands with his concert master, | Louis Ferrara; he bowed again, he walked out, he came back, he some more, he ski up_onto his CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Dutch “Tunes” Score. | Outstanding, as some muses say, | among. the remaining three aelections | was Mr. Kindler's own arrangement of three delightful Dutch “Tunes” of the sixteenth century. These and ' the | Moussorgsky “Chant Russe” were easily the peaks of a delightful musical aft- | ernoon. And this because, as mentioned | before, the violin section’ seemed more | at home than the other stands, and | because their legato was round and | vibrant even if sometimes there were | hints of overtones and a bowing which was a trifle heavy. Their rendition of the Kindler chorale, “Our Sorrcw,” however, was as smooth and mellow a | bit of craftsmanship as this concert | stage has seen and one which must e won deep gratitude from the au- dience. The closing of the program with the | bombastic Tchaikovsky “Marche Slav,” which some like because it is familiar | and some don't because it is over- | familiar, gave at any rate a certain re- | sounding “esprit” to the whole and | brought the usual clatter of applause. The audience then stood in the aisles and applauded Mr. Kindler and his men with all that it had. It also went out into the night and said to itself not only that it had been greatly im- pressed by what it had heard—but that it would be back to hear some more. | _ That, too, is Mr. Kindler's only worry. Already this concert is far behind him He is plotting and planning about the future. The past is done and over. He isn't saying “Did you like it?” He is | wondering “Will you come for more?" | And judging from his initial offering | the answer in the affirmative should be ‘w&l;ten high and’ wide over all the city.

ARNS VWS | CHER LEAGLE Officials at Geneva Believe Move for Truce Will Aid February Parley. By the Associated Press. GENEVA, November 3 —Great satis- faction Wwas expressed today by officials of the League of Nations at the news that Washington regards the one-year armaments truce as already morally effective. Now that the replies of 37 govern- | ments to the holiday proposal are being analyzed, league authorities believe that the move for an arms truce may prop- erly be considered to have accomplighed something valuable in preparing for next February's disarmament confer- ence. It is helieved, moreover, that the truce holds great possibilities for the future in providing stabilization of the present arms situation. Bulgaria sent its afirmative reply to- day, raising the number of those re- ceived to 37. Rumania suggested that the truce agreement embody a pro- vision for penalties in case of fdilure to fulfill its engagements.
