(.5, HELD WARMING UP 70 MOSCOW Pnfriendliness Believed Les- sening, Although Roose- velt Remains Silent. By the Associated Press. President Roosevelt declines to make Bny statement about the attitude of his administration toward Soviet Rus- pia, but the opinion is growing in some ‘Washington quarters that American un- mmdll:-nm“ for the Moscow regime is ning. ‘There likewise is belief here that flrmln H. Davis may talk with Maxim itvinoff, the Soviet commissar for for- gign affairs, at Geneva. Once the ice is broken, American ad- Nocates of Russian recognition believe the re-establishment of relations be- tween the two nations might speedily Yollow. Eager for Markets. ’ American ocotton growers, spinners Bnd manufacturers of machinery are showing much eagerness to regain Rus- | sian markets. With 160,000,000 inhab- itants, Soviet Russia is a tempting area to economists who are seeking fMelds where American products can be placed through tariff trades. Hugh S. Gibson, Ambassador to Bel- glum, who headed the American dele- gation at the Geneva Disarmament Con- ference when Henry L. Stimson, the Moover Secretary of State, was not in ®ttendance, never spoke to Litvinofl. Stimson also refused to talk with the chief of the Russian delegation. Mem- bers of the American delegation did talk with Karl Radek and other Russian fleaders, but it was always explained garefully that the conversations were'in o sense official. i Diplomatic Handicap Absent. ' Davis goes to Geneva as American ‘chairman with the rank of Ambassador. He will be the representative of the President and will enjoy Ambassadorial ¥ank without all the diplomatic handi- caps of an Ambaissador assigned to a definite governmental post. "All the leading powers of Europe now have Aml lors at Moscow. Many of them had much larger claims against the Moscow government for the confis- cated property of their nationals than the United States. American_Secretaries_of State from ‘Presidents Wilson to Hoover opposed Tecognition on the ground of the danger of agitation by the third Communist internationale rather than on the con- fiscation of property of foreigners and the repudmtion of debts. E. Smith's recent declaration in hvor of Russian recognition stirred Russia’s advocates in congressional cir- cles to renewed activity and they are urging that a new deal be given the Spviet regime. Fox Concern Schedule Filed. LOS ANGELES, March 18 (#).— Counsel for Federal receivers for the Fox West Coast theaters in an equity proceeding yesterday filed a schecule of labilities and assets in Federal Court, listing liabilities at $10,339,403.93, and assets at $6,709,978.46.

It was cold, the roads slippery, and our speed made conversation difficult. Reaching the designated place, we rushed toward a shed where a man stood ly beckoning. “‘I'm afraid you're too late.’ he exclaimed. ‘He's a goner!” “Lyman grabbed the wounded man’s wrist, stood mo- tionless a. moment, then requested me to open his kit. “‘His pulse is very weak but haste ‘may save him. Split his right sleeve, and swab his arm with alcohol while I fixed this hypo’ he curtly ordered pulling off his glove. ‘He has about # thousand-to-one chance . . ." “For the next 10 minutes not a word was spoken. Suddenly the doc- or's face relaxed as his patient flick- ered an eyelid. “If Dr. Lyman hadn't been so quick we might never have convicted Van- eau. “Quick observation, thinking and wmcting are all qualities you must pos- mess to be successful in your work.

Attorney General Cummings today was studying facts and figures con- cerning the 1929 income tax report of Charles E. Mitchell, resigned chairman of the Natlonal City Bank of New York. | United States Attorney George Z. Medalie of New York yesterday laid be- fore Mr. Cu the result of his two weeks’ investigation of Mitchell’s stock transaction which the banker told the Senate Stock Market Investigating Committee he charged against his tax payments. In his testimony, Mitchell said he sold 18,000 shares of the bank stock to a relative, taking a loss of $2,800,000, and deducted this from his tax return. Later he bought the stock back. ““We are going into the New York sit- uation very thoroughly,” the Attorney General . He declined to state whether a course of action had been de- cided upon. President Rooseveit has instructed him to prosecute any wrong- doing that might be shown by the Sen- ate stock market investigation. TWO BUREAU CHIEFS SWORN IN BY NAVY Rear Admirals §mory S.

Church before a large audience which warm- ly greeted the recitalist. Mr. Hayes’ program was an ideal one, compris- ing as it did the gems of vocal literature and maintaining a stand- ard which could only be met by an artist of Mr. Hayes’ caliber. There are few tenors today who can extract, as it were, the very kernel of 8 composition and lay its beauty so clearly before one as does Mr. Hayes. The essence of the poem, as well as its musical garb, is so simply presented and with such refined art that one feels that the mission of song is at last revealed. The force of Mr. Hayes' singing lies in his ability to submerge himself completely in the music and to pro- ject the power of his convictions. He is not a singer of songs but an intérpreter- of music, and whether this musie be of Italian, French or German origin, he is as much at home in its sentiments as in any of his native English. ‘The soft, easily produced tones have lost some of their mellowness and there is a tendency to force and to labor ecessarily in fortissimo ‘passages, these ordinarily tell- tale faults assume minor importance beside the bigger objective of Mr. Hayes’ singing. Except for the mo- ments which call forth a feel of regret that all cannot be perfect, the question of technic is forgotten in the deep enjoyment of the exquisite music the masters have- left us and which is so reverently delineated by Mr. Hayes. Dance and card party, John Bur- roughs School, Sixteenth and Monroe streets northeast, 8:30 p.m. Musicians Reviews and News of Capital's Programs. Club Auditorium concluded with sev- eral numbers played by Mr. Garzia and his brother, Prancis Garzia. A piano and violin sonata by Mozart presented Francis Garzia as violinist, while in the following number, “Sa- rabande,” by Bach, Mr. Garzia was heard in a cello solo. Both instru- ments demenstrated Mr. Garzia's ex- cellent musical knowledge and he proved himself an artist of fine un- derstanding in both the sonata and Sa;:tlznde. e T 8 rt but convincing speech in which he pleaded for the continued support of the National Symphony Orchestra, Felian Garzia concluded the program with the E flat major and the D mipor Prelude by Chopin.

Ca- mille Alleworth was heard in Tschai- kowsky's “Troika,” Sue Taranto in Schutt's “Tfrx:dre "Aveu” and Brahms® romptu” ew- After the opening ula “Per Pieta Non Ricercate,” by Mr. Hayes sang the benutflul air from Handel's “Acis and Galatea,” “Would You Gain the Tender Crea- ture,” with delicacy and gentleness that gave the simple melody a rare charm. Two songs by Brahms, “Es Traumte Mir” and Am Sonntag Mcrgen” were followed by “La Reve,” from Massenet’s opera “Manon,” and Dvorak’s “By the Waters of Babylon.” Seldom has the evanescent atmosphere of the famous “Manon” aria been’ so ad- mirably caught or its dxeuny meas- ures infused with such nnceflty as Mr. Hayes succeeded in last evening. In the “By the of Babylon” ringing hllh wnu formed a virile contrast to the pre- ceding number and called forth a storm of applause, to which Mr. Hayes responded by singing Purcell's “Passing By” as encore. A group of English songs was & pleasing departure from the banali- ties that are often included in such a collection. “On Awake, Awake oved.” from Hiawatha,” by Cole- ige-Taylor; Griffes “A Dreamy lAk!' juiem,” by Morhardt; “My Little Pool” (which had to be repeated), by Slonimsky, and “The Heart Worships,” by Holst, were original and valuable numbers that ware greeted by enthusiastic ap- plause. The last numbers on the program were Negro spirituals, which Mr. Hayes in unforgettable atyie. Percival Parham showed sympa- thetic understanding in the excellent and unobstrusive accompaniments he provided which added to the suc- cess of the evening.
