March, new head of the| Federal Trade Commission. In a statement covering problems 0f£ the commission of which he has just; become chairman, Mr. March favored a comprehensive study of “the causes and preventive remedies of the business de- pression,” and said the trade group should also investigate the *“applica- bility of anti-trust laws to the question of overproduction of commodities andl products.” Urges Free Competition. Chairman March emphasized, how- ever, that “the honest business man * & '« should be guaranteed the oppor- tunity to carry on his trade under the benefits of free competition, unmolested by manopoly.” Explaining he favored vigorous prose- cution of the commission’s long-stand- | ing inquiry into the financial set-up of public utility companies, March added “It is to be hoped that the result( will be proposal of reforms in public utility regulation of sufficient import as | to make such catastrophies as the col- lapse of the Insull companies unlikely, if not altogether impossible, in the tuture.” J “Essential ases of this inquiry re- main to be done” he added completion should make this inv tion of remarkable value to the public Under the terms of the Secnate reso- lution directing the investigation, it will be the commission’s duty to make rec- ommendations to Congress.” Inquiry Ends June 30. While the general investigation is ex- pected to be completed by the end of this fiscal year on June 30, the new chairman reminded that an “inquiry into the public utility operations can be made at any time.” “The electric and gas utilities busi- ness,” he continued, “still is in a process of expansion, even in this period of de- pression. An example of this is the rapid growth of pipe lines for trans- mission of natural gas. Like elect- . energy, gas is now carried long dGi-- tances over State lines. “The sound beneficial character of this development should not be per- mitted to expose consumers and in- vestors to such evils, even if only oc- casional, as revealed by the Insul col- lapse.” i G R PAUL-BONCOUR PLEDGES EFFORTS TO END WARS French Premier Also Warns Vet- ans to Expect Fair Share of Burden in Budgeting Cuts.

The Rarest of All Cheeses MUSIC ART FORUM LECTURE. THE International Art Forum gave the first of its series of lectures and recitals Saturday afternoon at the Washington Club, Dr. Joaquim Coutinho, director of the Portu- guese Department of the George- town University School of Foreign Service, spoke of the “Life and Music of Brazilian Composers” and selections from the most well-known of their works were played by Robert Bond Gotta, pianist. Preceding the lecture, Professor Raffa of Georgetown University spoke of the aims of the Forum, stressing the mutual need of artists for opportunities to be heard and the public for occasion to become acquainted with art, which this in- stitution is trying o fill. Dr. Coutinho began with the pop- ular forms of music in Brazil during the colonial days and the mixed Indian, Spanish and Negro melodies whose united influence existed until the present time. The interest in liturgical and classical developed under the guidance of Father Jose Mauricio, one of the first of Brazil's gifted musicians whose fame helped to make Rio de Janeiro one of the greatest musical centers in -the world in those days. He told of the Emperor Dom Pedro 1, and the encouragement he offered to musicians and composers, espe- clally Carlos Gomes, the greatest genius in the history of Brazilian music. ‘The modern composers, Alberto Nepomuceno, Henrique Oswaldo, Francisco Braga, Glauco Velasque and Heitor Villa Lobos were men- tioned and their works discussed These names are equally well known in European musical circles where they have received acclaim as the outstanding composers of Latin America Robert Bond Gotta playpd several Brazilian Folk songs as illustrating native music, and excerpts from Gomes' celebrated opera, “El Guar- any.” Mr. Gotta has a facile technic and true interpretive feeling and succeeded in giving an interesting and comprehensive idea of the twe types of Brazilian music. At the end of the lecture, film views of Brazl were shown. A E. music was Al Smith Is Fiddler. Al Smith—of Ashland, Nebr.—is champion fiddler of the Cornhusker State. Beer Orders Piling Up.

That wouldn’t mean a thing if smok- ers found out that it wasn’t so. No- body can fool the people very long. But a great many smokers have smoked Chesterfields for a long time, and they know that they taste right. And so they say to their friends, “If you want a cigarette that really tastes better, try Chesterfields!” Chesterfields taste better because they are made of mild tobaccos that have been aged for two years.
