C—12 JULY 4 PLANS PUTUNDER WAY Chairmen “hserip- Subcommittee Selected ai . tions Discussed. The District’s Fourth of July Com- nittee met in the Franklin School Ad- ministration Buflding Tuesday and selected chairmen of subcommittees which will prepare for the annual celebration. Citizens of Washington will be asked to subscribe about $2,000 to finance this year’s program, C. Melvin Sharpe, committee chairman, an- nounced. There was considerable discussion as to whether it would be better to finance the celebration through radio advertising or by the subscription method, but the committee finally de- cided that advertising would detract from the dignity of the occasion. 8,000 Seats Are Planned. Eight thousand seats will be pro- vided near the Washington Monu- ment, but the emphasis this year on aerial fireworks is expected to enable persons even in the far portions of the city to get a good view of that part of the celebration. { An amplifying system will carry the voices of speakers and the preliminary band concert throughout the Monu- ment Grounds. Subcommittee Chairmen. Subcommittee chairmen appointed were J. R. Wilhelm, amplifying; Har- old A. Hayden, seating and tickets; 8. Percy Thompson, finance; Edgar Morris, fireworks; Frank R. Jelleff, | city decoration and illumination; J.G. | ‘Yaden and George W. Beasley, com- | munity participation; Richard Tenny- “ son and Winfree Johnson, contests and carnivals; Albert C. Burton, grounds; Col. John W. Oehmann and Lieut. Col. Peyton G. Nevitt, military, veteran and patriotic organization participation; Curtis Hodges and Bess D. Schreiner, publicity; Maj. Ernest W. Brown and Capt. P. J. Carroll, traffic, and Robert J. Cottrell, ad- visory. Chairman Sharpe announced that Rev. Dr. Ze Barney Phillips, chaplain of the Senate, will read the Declara- tion of Independence. A prominent Government official, not yet selected, | will be the principal speaker.

PHILADELPHIA, April 4 (#).—The love scenes in Dmitri Shostakovitch's Russian _opera, “Lady Macbeth of Mzensk,” have stirred up another tempest in the Philadelphia Orchestra.

THE EVE ECONOMIC COUNCIL PLAN REITERATED Wallace Maintains Idea Is Good Despite “Spank- ing” He Received. By the Associated Press. Despite the “sound spanking” Sec- retary Wallace says he got for suggest- ing a national economic council of | four men and a new, swift means.of | changing the Ccnstitution, he insisted today that the idea is a good one. “What the people think about it, I! don’t know,” he said, “because I have had little opportunity to talk to many of them or to analyze my mail. How- ever, the editorial comments were gen- erally antagonistic.” Last January Wallace suggested an economic council “to determine by direct referendum the will of the people on key questions of national policy.” The voters would be given “direct power to amend the Constitution and to veto measures which in their judg- ment are now misguided or no longer useful.” The decision would be bind- ing as a constitutional amendment. Wallace asserted “the spirit of need for unity” on the fundamental law of the land is as great today as when the Constitution was adopted. Wallace said a minimum of seven years is now necessary to ratify an amendment to the Constitution, and that is “a perilously long time.” He sald “pressure groups” often di- vect and govern legislation and that ‘hey “can ruin the country.
