Roosevelt yesterday ap- pealed to the citizens of the Capiial and the country to make the National Symphony Orchestra’s drive for & | $100,000 sustaining fund a success. Unable to appear 1 person because of the critical illness of the President’s secretary, Louls McHenry Howe, Mrs, Roosevelt had requested M:s. O'Day to read her appeal over Station WRC at the symphony's concert in Consti- tution Hall. “We have been so busy in this country making money,” Mrs. Roose= velt said in her message, “thal we have had little chance to realize what it would mean to us as a Netion to develop a real understanding and en- joyment of music. This is coming to us now, but it can not come unless we have the opportunity to listen to good concerts and to hear a good orchestra play good music. I hope that we shall do whatever we can to | make this campaign successful avid | that In its success we will al feel |a pride that we have contributed In Washington Get Your U X s o 1319-21 F Street Honored HOPE LODGE TO PRESENT BUTTON TO DR.

This will allow for more concerts nere and more chil- dren’s concerts and will also mean the | inauguration at the Water Gate of a series of Summer course, make possible the opportuni- | tes 1o play outside of Washington. | All this will mean that the influence | of music will be spread out from the Capital City in an ever-widening radius, and we know that in this day | and generation there is a great need concerts and, of | for every. beautiful influence in the lives of our people.” $500 GItt Is Matched. A gift of $500 from & contributor who wishes to remain anonymous was reported at yesterday’s meeting of campaign workers in the Carlton Hotel.

The largest gift reported for the day was $1,500, subscribed by Mrs. Beale R. Howard, “With only four more days left to | secure the $100,000 sustaining fund,” Dr. William McClellan, chairman of | the Men's Committee, told the work~ ers, “the total received to date is considerably less than half of the | quota.

Probably, however, the need is, relatively, more urgent in Washington than in other cities. Here among the thousands of residents of the eity live those who carry heavy responsibilities as representatives of the people in the administration of the people’s Gov- | ernment. In their official capacity they must make decisions daily which affect the welfare of the whole peo- ple. This they cannot do most wise- |1y unless they keep themselves keen- ly appreciative of those finer things toward which civilizations constantly advances. Music is one of these | finer things. i “Among the forms of music best | adapted to bring to great audiences of | music lovers this necessary appreci- ation is the symphony concert. Until | such audiences are adequate to sup- port an orchestra in the City of Washington, the people who recog- | nize an orchestra’s valug must sub- | scribe to a supplementary fund enough to make such concerts pos- sible.” JULIUS LANSBURGH FURNITURE CO., 909 F St. oJulius Lansburgh N.W.
