[BODANZKY Ines JUILLIARD MILLIONS FOR CONSERVATORY New Symphony , Orchestra Conductor Says There Is Na- tional. Need for Music. Artur Bodanrky, condyetor of tho New Symphony Orchestra, ‘Arrived in New York yesterday from his sum- mer home at Seal Harbor, Me, and amplified a previous interview urging that the $5,000,000 Juilliard bequest for music be used in the endowment of a National Com tory of Music. In support of his plan he said: “In order that any country become great in any branch of art, science or Mterature ite so-called masters mast produce works which live. I mean, live through ages, These works must be viewed in the light of milestones in @ nation’s advancement. “It seems to me that America in the past has made the mistake of oon- fining itself almost exclusively to the ‘work of creating performers rather | than producers; a brilliant proceed- ing, perhaps, but not a constructive one, Im other words, we must have tools to work with, For example, could Edwin Booth have achieved such great fame if the constructive Shakespeare had not lived? “There is only one way, in my opinion, that a nation can become constructive in music in the sense that I mean it, and that is to create a great national institution where talent can be developed and genius diecovered—for talent and genius are rarely associated with money at the start. I venture the assertion that there are scores of talents right here in New York who could achieve in- ternational and lasting fame if they had the financial assistance which a national conservatory could give them—an Inatitution such as the wonderful Juilliard bequest could make possible.

WASHINGTON, July 8.—Up-to date | the War Department has revsived no general response from municipal au- thorities throughout the country to its offer to sell surplus foodstuffs in car- ed lots to be paid for after distribu- jon. The District of Columbia Commis- stoners have arranged to take one carload of canned and cured meat and canned vegetables, to be distributed . through the municipal fish markets. Secretary Baker said to-day this dis- trfbution would be in the nature of an experiment. The Baltimore pee prcbeed $2,700 worth of which are now in bgt! ‘homes of the people. This was a relatively small ™ order, but the Baltimore authorities plan to carry the experiment further. One other city is said to be arranging to take a carload as an experiment. ry —_——- DIES ON KITCHEN STOVE.
