Albert Centes, leader of the Londen

Academy of Music last evening In the
first of his nppenrnnces here as guest
conductor or the Jew Xerk symphony
Society. The program which he
offered was diversified, but net mere
le than Mr. Centes' conducting of it.
He began with Meznrt'H lively and
(harming "Nezze dl Flgure" overture,
Tvldch he took nt a terrific tempo, much
tee fast for beauty and almost tee fan
for tonal coherency at times. The
orchestra htruggled valiantly with nn Im
possibly fait tempo and only well nigh
incredible feats of virtuosity saved paint
of the slower speaking Instruments from
being left nt the pest.
The fnntasle-overture "Remee nnd
Juliet" showed Mr. Centea In nnether
phase of conducting. He Is evidently
1 modernist nnd the later the music
became the mere enthusiastically he led
it. There worn mnny places in the
Tschaikewsky number which wcre of
tie greatest beauty and showed a keen
ppreciatinn of the f.plrit of the, com
poser, and there were ethers where he
demanded tee much tone from the
Instruments, especially the trumpets
and the trombones, te the complete sub
merging of the mere delicate toned
tring and recti Instruments. His
tempi v,cre rapid throughout but the
composition moved with spirit nnd thu
conductor Infused much of his dynamic
personality into the orchestra.
He was nt his best in the Serlablne
''symphony" entitled "Le Devln
reeme," which Mr. Stokewskl lms
made familiar te I'hlladephia audi
ences. The musical merit of the work
te open te question, despite tiic nttltudc
the ultra-modernists. At present
Bcrlablne seems te be one of the virtuosi
he bpcclnllzcB in detail, rather than a
waster who points the way te n new
hne of musical thought. Re this as it
pay, Mr. Coates evidently Is a firm
believer In the compeber and led the
symphony" with the devotion of an
pestle.
(Taken nil in all, Mr. Coates is a

Tenth Anniversary for
Werk in Schools
HONORED BY DR. BROOME
More than 2400 members of the
Fathers' Association of Frnnkferd at
tended a meeting last night marking the
tenth nnnlvcrsary of thnt organization.
The meeting wns held in the Frank
ford Illh Scheel gymnasium, and high
praise was bestowed en the fnthers by
educational lenders for their great work
in the Frankford schools.
Jehn J. Tigcrt, United States Com
missioner of Education, and Dr. Ed
win 0. Broeme, Superintendent of
Schools, wcre honor guests. Prier te
the celebration proper n dinner wns
given nt the school for the guests nnd
the General Committee.
"The most important problem thnt
confronts the school today," declared
Dr. Rroerae, "Is thnt of finnnce. Gen
erally, the people want the best possible
education for their children. On the
ether hand, the cry 'keep the taxes
down' is nlways welcome te their cnrH
and is nn effective campaign slogan."
"Wc have been getting education at
a bigger bargain than almost any form
of public tervlce. One rensen why tnc
cost of public education has &ceiucd
such u direct burden en the taxpayer
Is been u se schools have hitherto been
financed very largely from lecnl tuxes.
We arc only beginning te adept the
ppllcy which has been prevalent se long
in Europe of applying State funds from
taxes nnd ether State-owned sources te
the maintenance of public education,
nnd our Federal Government has dene
virtually nothing toward the financing
of public schools throughout the
country.
Hed te Contend With Councils
"Fer many years the Beard of Edu
cation had te contend with Councils for
sufficient funds te run the schools.
With whnt success historians can state
better than I. When the Beard of
Education acuulrcd the independent
taxing power, 1 am told thnt the liml liml
tntlen en that power was such thnt It
did net for many years raise sufficient
funds for the adequate support of the
public schools. New for the first time,
by virtue of recently enacted legisla
tion, the Beard of Education litis nn
opportunity of raising sufficient funds
te conduct the schools properly and te
build n sufficient number of schools te
heuse the children ns they should be
housed.
"I am very happy te say that our
Beard of Education has taken ndvan ndvan
taee of this opportunity nnd is deter
mined te give te the peeple of Phila
delphia the best schools within its
ability."
"There is gathered this evening In
this hall n most extraordinary and 10-
markable collection of men. It h a
uninuc association. I knew of no coin
munlty which has bliewn the enterprise
of Frankford for the buppert et us
high school. "
Tremendous Growth
A short address was delivered by
Prof. G. Alvin Sneek, principal of the
school, who told of the wonderful ac
complishments of the Fathers' Associa
tion, nnd Mr. Tigert spoke en "Fnthcr "Fnthcr "Fnthcr
hoetl." The Fathers" Association of Frank
ford "wns orernnizod ten ychrs nire with
thirteen members, when there were
only HO pupils tn the high school. To
day there are 10S0 pupils In the new
high school nnd In the Fathers' Associa
tion arc 2300 incmbcrti.

ADDRESSES REALTY MEN
Phnscs of zoning leglslntlen
which
will net stnnd a legal test were peinded
out by Edward A. Merrill, of Newark,
in addressing membern of the Phila
delphia Ttc.il !,tnte Beard last ntgbt.
Mr. Mcrrill'ti criticism of proposed
height nnd use regulations for this city
evoked the apprevnl of the realty men.
A special study of zoning legislation
has been made by Mr. McTrill In many
New Jersey towns, nnd he predicted that
many ordinances would fall into the
courts because they improperly Included
functions coming under the authority
of health, fire or building ,utherltlen.
A sharp distinction was drawn by
Sir. Merrill between the right of emi
nent domain, under whlrh cities, States
nnd the Nntlen may create parks or
memorials nnd set un restrictions In
and nreund them. He pointed out that
under the exercise of that power dam
age payments wcre made te property
owners.
Zoning, he said, was accomplished
under the police power, which he de
scribed as the inherent right te restrict
property or liberty in thu interest of
"snfetv. health, morals nnd gcner'nl
welfare." He demonstrated that thnt
power was! in constant conflict with tlm
Fourteenth Amendment te the natlenul
Constitution.
"Thcre is n constantly Increasing
scope given by courts te mcasurcB for
the nubile eoed." said Mr. Merrill.
"Unquestionably the trend la In tbnti
direction. But It has been held again
and again that thcre must be n real
peed for measures of tbis kind. They
must be of bcncQt te all the peeple in 11
given nreu, or they are nothing but
clnss lcglslutieu."
Thu speaker suggested that salient
phrases of Magna Chiirtu be printed in
capital letters anil pasted in the hut.s
of all members of zoning commissions.

HAS NEW FAIR SITE PLAN
Architect Would Use Parkway
te
Qlrard Avenue Bridge
The Parkway la incorporated In n
plan of Ralph 13. White, an architect,
for a site for the Sesqui-Centenninl Ex
position in 1020.
"Instead of crossing the river at the
Art Musciim,' Mr. White sunggests,
"contlnue te the right of the museum,
widening the driveway te Glrnrd nve
line, nt the Girard avenue brldge level,
continue the present drive across Girard
avenue with a bridge ever the Pennsyl
vania Railroad tracks, and then con
tinuing a boulevard until it intersects
with the roadway at Strawberry Man
sion, which connects with the Itlvcr
drive."
On the slde of the boulevard toward
the city proper could be placed the main
exposition buildings, Mr. unite nays,
adding that the mnin exposition grounds
could extend along the river from the
railroad at Girard avenue bridge.
Mr. Wblte points out that the section
has adequate railroad and trolley facili
ties, is centrally lecntpd, and that n
great portion of the money expended in
Inylng out the slte could be for perma
nent improvements.
