IJoosevelt, nsshtnnt beeretary of the

of Jamc A. Flaherty, supreme knight
of the Knight of Columbus, In the

The dinner was held both to cole
'hrnte Arinistlrr Day And to honor Sir.
Flaherty for his welfare work during
the war.
Mr. Itoosevelt emphasized that on
AnnlHtiee Day not only is the end of
the war celebrated, but the triumph of
American citizenship over radicalism
"Mhich threatens the gocrninent is
celebrated, too. In making a plea for
socIhI justice, he. said'
"Wc must recognize the fact that
men and women cniplmH in occunations
essential to the public welfare have a
different status than those engaged in
private employment. A new relation
, ship must be realized between the em
ploje and the cinplojcr. on the .rail
roads. In the mines and in the public
service corporations.
"It must be understood that such
workers owe a duty to the people. But
It is equally plain that the people owe
a special duti to them. In taking
au-uy a right it must be recognized as
obvious that those who lmvo sufTered
an injustice or have a grievance shall
have recourse to courts of justice.
"Before wc become many years older
the government of the United States
will create Hpccinl tribunals not mere
ly boards of arbitration but courts
wltn authority to enforce their decrees;
courts of equity and justice to settle
these controversies."
Mr. Itooscvelt's expressions wcic re
peatedly applauded. Governor Sproul
In an address which followed expressed
ftimila'r sentiments.
PIAVE CONCERT GOOD
v Orchestra Conducted by D'AnnunzIo
Pleases at Metropolitan
From conductor to audience the at
mosphere of musical Italy pervaded the
Metropolitan Opera House last evening
at the concert of the Wave Orchestra,
under the leadership of D'AnnunzIo,
brother of the poet -warrior, who for n
space has been making history in Italy.
Conductor, orchestra, soloists, music
and audience were of one nationality,
and tho spontaneous enthusiasm of the
Italian temperament was manifested
throughout the entire program, which
naturally was made up exclusively from
the works ofItalian composers.
' The orchestra which Mr. IVAnnunziq
has assembled is small in number too
small, as a matter of fact, for the size
of the Metropolitan and they play
moderately well as a whole, though
there are some instrumentalists, ot ex
ceptional ability among them. The tone
quality is agreeable, though n6t large
on account of the size of the orchestra,
but thev play with great spirit and
dash. This was especially apparent in
the "William Tell" overture, which
. ti. u..n ninfA.i nf nnv nf the nureiy

the "Dance pf the Hours." from Ulo
eonda" ; the prelude to the first net ot
"Travlata" and two compositions ot
D'Annunzio's, n symphonic prelude en
titled "II Wave" and some excerpts
1 from his comic opera. "Ivettc.

appeared first in tho prologue from
"I'aglincci," in which he showed a
Bood voice, especially fine in the upper
r editor
Miss " Manna scored the greatest
success of the evening. Her voice is
high and brilliant In quality nnd she
lins on excellent vocnl technique, be
sides being very drnmatic In her renin-
As" a conductor Mr. D'Annunzio is
temperamental, but does not allow it to
get beyond control. The orche&tri
Showed comparatively little shading,
and there were places which suggested
a lack of ths necessary amount of re
hearsal together.
Jewish Soldiers to Discuss Protest
Jewish soldiers, sailors and marines
who fought in the war will meet tomor
row night In the Continental Hotel to
formulate plans by which their feelings
of the treatment of Jews in Ukrainia can
best be expressed at a protest meet
Ing to bo held NoVeinber 2-t In the
Metropolitan Opera House. The mcet
tnir tomorrow has been called by the
American Jewish Veterans' League, and
Invitations are issued to Us members.

or other Jewish soldiers, sailors and
marines not affiliated with any such
organization.
The Philadelphia Music Club opened
the senson In the Aldlne Hotel yester
day with one of the most unique pro
grams presented here. The club Intro
duced Miss Marlon nous, pianist, in
a lecture-recital which that musician
has been pleased to name "What Next
in Music?"
During the afternoon Miss Kous suc
ceeded in having the audience ask this
same question as bIic Introduced sonrc
of the compositions written by tho
modernists and futurists. Miss Itous
termed them "The Bolshevists of Mod
ern Music."
Sponsoring none of the composers,
this able musician played eight select
tlons, commenting and explaining the
origin nnd technique of I'almgren, Or
stein, Schnenberg, Itavcl, Ilola-llar-tok,
Scriabin, Stravinsky and Dolman -!,
the Bolshcvlkt responsible, Probably
the most "radical" or those most de
void of harmony were the compositions
of the three "S's", namely: Schocu
berg, Scriabin nnd Stravinsky.
The most beautiful of, the group Miss
Itous played was "The Isle of Shad
ows." by I'almgren nnd "Rhapsodic In
0 Minor," by Dohnauyi. These com
posers are put In this olnss because thev
khnvp modernized some of the musical
iirri'uiurn ul iiir oiu cinssicai composrrs
and maintain bnrmony to n greater de
gree than do their fellow musicians?
DOUBLE BILL IN FRENCH
EV-EMKG, TOBtlC LlipCrER PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, x NOVEMBER ' 12HttUr
T
M
Unique Program Presonted by
Miss Marion Rous, Pianist,
Who Also Lectured
on the bill, is technlcally-inrcc, but with
a touch of comedy.
"Clionchette" narrates lightly and
brightly, to tinkling tune, the choice of
a pretty working girl between nspir
ntlons for n theatrical career nnd the
heart-satisfaction of a romance of
true love. She chooses love. The piece
is by De Flcrs and Caillavct, both
known on this side from the musical
comedies mnde out of their farces.
Pierre Weber, author of "Moin
Gauche," has treated deftly and
amusingly some of the familiar ma
terials of the French stage, the newly
married couple, the husband's old
liaison, the Interfering family friend,
jealousy, subterfuge, tenrs, repent
ance .and presto, forgiveness at the
final curtain. Both pieces were acted
charmingly ,wlth the delicacy of touch,
nuances of sentiment nnd adroitly In
offensive handling of ticklish sftuntions
Indigenous to Hie French stage.
Company From Paris Gives Excel
lent Performances
Philadelphia's limited season of
French repertoire opened last evening
at the Little Theatre, where Itobert
Casadesus offered the- talented mem
bers of the Theatre Tnrlsicn Coni
pnny in n double bill that varied drama
with operetta. This organization is suc
ceeding the Vieux Colombler Company
In New York. There is a field for
French theatrical offerings in the ver
nacular in Philadelphia worth cultivat
ing and it is to be hoped that the
reception of the French artists during
their four local performances this week
will warrant their return, especially
in some of the more serious plays of
the Onllic stage.
Last night's bill was devoted to the
lighter side of the French stage, to
farce, in short. The opening piece,
Clionchette," is really a musical farce,
and "Main Gauche.' which followed
