Frank Stewart Adaim, of Now
York, Attacks Imitations
of Goats
WELCOMED BY MASTBAUM
Taxi nnd popular music, faking, im
provising nnd one-step and (ox trot
composing were scored an Ineffective, by
Frank Stewart Adams, organist of the
Malto Moving Picture Theatre, New
York, in discussing organ playing for
"novie" comedies before the Xntionnl
Association of Organists, at tlie Stan
ley Theatre today. The occasion was
the third day's fittings of the annual
convention of the organization.
"People don't really npplnud popular
music, said Mr. Adam. 'In the pnr
Unco of the 'movie' theatre man. they
re Just 'kidding along.' Their bodies
away to the rhythm of the jingling nlrs.
but they look at one another foolishly,
knowing that it is only a manifestation
of their savage instincts."
IJke a Sick Goat
Mr. Admits scored In epigrnmmatlc
fashion what he termed the virions
habit of chromatically smearing inter
vals of melody, which he said "sounds
Ilka the bleating of n goat with the
whooping cough."
"Organ playing," said Mr. Adnm,
"k now a question of what crimes the
organist can perpetrate without inter
ference of the police or tin- Hoard of
Health.
"Some only want the latest Uroad-
way hits, others onl) can resort to
Improvising or faking. Some prefer the
crowing of woodpecks and
1 liens nnd
others don t.
'The use of effects In comedr films is
an objective process requiring n keener !
urnmattc souse anil knowledge of the
Esyehology of audiences than any other
ranch of picture playing.
"The organist should watch with the
keenness of n bloodhound the effect of
his playing on audience, especially
when he tries an) thing out of the or
dinary. Remember there is a differ
ence between being funny nnd being
merely silly
"The organist never gets the laughs:
it Is the pictures. If the action is not
funny, there Is no use of tlie organist
Baking an ns of himself.
"People cannot be forced to Inugh
any more than whipping a mule or put
ting a thorn under his tail will make
him enjoy running.
Get Melodies From linrnyaid I
"Comedy should never part company !
with the elements of music or musical
form.
"Some organists evidently sit down
beside a calf or a roo-tcr in a barn
yard or hencoop and make musical
notations of the sounds that they hear.
"It Is sometimes effective to per
Trt the devices of music, the color and
rythm to enhance the action, the gavety
r the nihility.
"The playing of dance music and
iaxz all the tune In comedies, it wrong.
There are many better wav of nceuin-
Sanjing rapid action than by the play
if of one-steps or fox trots.
"Popular music is rcallv lnpffertivn
on the organ. Shere Is wnve of
criticism against jazz and the sooner '
it Is removed the better. l
"We are rapidly coming to n show
down as to whether picture plaing
shall take the highest form of drama.
lus music or op'eni. or wheflier It shall
e merely incidental music u-ith ti, '
poken play."
Jules Mastbaum, head of the Stanlev '
Amusement Co.. welcomed the organists I
' With a brief but Impressive address.
He said he hoped to see the day that
the organist would be n feature of even '
ttovlng-picture theatre just the .samel
as the photoplay is. II(. asserted that
the music was reully ."ill jut cent of I
the picture, and pointed out how it I
fitted in wjth the storj unfolded und I
really told purt of the etnrv Itself
He predicted a day when organists of
WC better class would be -n popular
that they might travel from cm to cltj '
ad be as much in demand as the pic
ture. He said oier since he started in
the moving-picture enterprise good
music was his hobby. This was at
tested, he said, by the fact that the I
btnnley Co. employed more organists i
than .other companies devoted to that
form of amusement.

"The telephone message," he said, I
"came at eight-thirty last night. 1 1

to get to mother and to get there quick.

Directly in front of Lieutenant Robb
fluttered the gray crepe on the door

"No," he ald in answer to a ques

me, anyhow. I haven t the faintest

was planning what to do for mother.

that would be best. I knew she had

LONG DELAY SEEN
IN IRISH DECISION
Lord Birkenhead Asks Britons to
Be Patient While De Valera
Negotiates
DAIL MEMBERS SUMMONED
By flic Associated Press
London, July 28. Speculations nnd
predictions regarding the Irish situa
tion hnve taken many pecullnr turns as
a result of developments featuring the
negotiations during the last twenty
four hours.
Of these dcvclopmtnts perhaps the
most talked of is a sneerh mnde In the
House of Lords yesterdny by Lord
Birkenhead. Lord High Chancellor, In
which he invited Parliament and the
country to have patience with the trou
ble Knmon do Vnlern, Irish republican
lender, nnd his colleagues may be hav
ing in Dublin to reach u decision on the
British proposals. Ho aUo Intimated
that the negotiations might continue
for several weeks.
Other outstanding features of tho
day were prolonged discussions of the
proposals by the Irish republican Cab
inet, a communication Premier Lloyd
Crtorge is reported to hnve received
from Mr. do A nlera and the postpone
ment by General J. O. Smuts of his
depnrtura for South Africa until Au
gust r.
Be Valera Asks Explanations
The communication from De Valera
is reported to have asked for further
elucidation on severnl doubtful points in
the proposals, while the action of Gen
eral Smuts in remaining here is tnken to
mean that he feels his services us medi
ator may again be needed.
All these things tnken together prompt
this morning s newspapers to believe
that several days may pass before any
additional developments will be noted
Several newspapers print "niithoritativc
denials that Mr. de Valern has com
municated with the Prime Minister, but
admit that such a note may arrive at
any time.
The miestion of assembling the entire
Doll Klrennn to consider the British
Government's proposn's is now regarded
by Manay newspapers as having a verv
important bearing on the progress of the
negotiations, und, according to some re
ports, considerable difficulty has arisen
In this connection.
Imprisoned Lenders a Problem
It hna been stnted frequently that the
lliitlsh Government was willing to re
Icaso thirty-nix members of the Dnil
Rircunn who are in prison or intern
ment camps if Do Vnlern will but make
the request It is ciiid. on the othe.1
bund, however, that Sinn Fein lenders
are reluctant ask for the liberation
of their comrades lest it appear that
tbty recognized Great Britain's right
to imprison reprcsentitics of Ireland.
How this difficulty, if it existi. nt all.
will be circumvented is not apparent nt
the moment, but the view i taken Hint
certainly before very long the Dallites
will be released to participate In the
Irish Parliament meeting which, it is
l.clievd in many quartets, already ban
been urinnged.
Special Cable Dispatch Cnpurloht, toil
Dublin, July 2S. Knmon de Valera's
answer to the British neuce nronosnls
will not be sent to Prime Minister!
Lloyd George this we-k because of tlie i
difficulty of ascertaining the views of '
the local lenders of the Sinn Fein1
throughout Ireland and the thirty-six
members of Dail Eireann who nre still
in prison or interned It is stutcd the
Irish lender will make no statement
until nil the members of Dnll Klreann
hnve been released and be hns been able
to meet them in n full session.
In the inenntlinc he has summoned all
the Iiish Reiiub iuiii urm officTs and
the lenders of the Sinn Fein clubs from
all over Ireland to Dublin and is con
ferring with tlieni Individually.
It is also reportrd Unit many of the
men wnnted by the authorities nre re
turning to the vilnges nnd nre settling
down to work in the harvest fields, The
onlj trouble has been with members of
Larkin's ami) on the Dublin docks,
but the liaison officers nte getting them

As n result of Lord Curzon'a meet
ing with M. de St. Aulnirc, It in under
stood Lord Curzon will send a reply to

thnt the situation in Upper Silesia does
not Justify the sending of more troops

the report of the allied commissioners.
The French Government, in the com-'
munlcation bunded Lord Curzon by M.

ing re-enforcements had been decided.

French division across Germany to re
enforce the troops in Sllcsln, according
to Information available here today.

tions of Myron T. Hcrrick, the Amer

just as the Premier was leaving the
council of ambassadors, but the con
versation consisted of only n few words
of greeting.
A Paris dispatch last night quoted
the Journal ns saying Mr. HcrricK had
an interview with Premier Brlnnd.
largely taken up with the question of
