re quest Scott told the supervisors that the streets as they are now do not conform to secondary road standards The other request asked a speed limit from the end of the corporate limit to and

order ration ing of scarce materials (4) make government loans to spur produc tion and (5) control the extension of credit This is more than Mr Truman asked but he has indicated willing ness to accept it all if congress doesn't make the legislation too rigid for his taste Specifically he says he doesn't want a bill which would automatically impose wage and price controLs once the cost of living has reached 5 per cent or so above the June 15 level He holds that would be an invitation to a 5 per cent rise The House which voted for a mandatory automatic control pro vision and then reversed itself ap peared ready to let the president have his way on the subject The Senate Banking Committee has vo ted to give the president the free hand he asked on this However Senator Lyndon John son (D Tex)

to have authority to curb almost all consumer credit South ern Democrats and Republicans generally oppose restrictions in real estate credits and commodity marketing speculation If they get their way on that they probably will go along on the rest of the program In exchange for concessions on the credit provisions administra tion leaders want all authority in the bill given to the President on a

number of well trained string in strument players In Philadelphia the New School of Music is striving to bolster the i ranks The project is no small one There are 200 professional sym phony orchestras in America in cluding 20 major ones Each or chestra averages about 100 players more than two thirds of whom are string instrumentalists violinists viola and bass players To fill the brass woodwin and percussion sectons is a simple mat a few auditions and the seat is filled Exmple of Shortage a But Max Aronoff founder of the New School of Muisic and himself one of the foremost viola players' cited the predicament of the director in a city which sup ports a major symphony orches tra The director wanted one violin ist He had 1500 violinists in the area from whom to choose But not a single man could be found whom the director felt qualified to fill the post Conductor Dimitri Mitropoulous sighed after a similar experience: had to take the less worse of all of them who even know how to play their instruments'" Aronoff said part of the trouble begins with the aspiring musician If he chooses a string instrument he sets out with eyes on the con cert stage as a soloist Only a handful make the grade But more often Aronoff contin ued he picks the trumpet of the clarinet over the fiddle The train ing period is shorter pay is higher on the average and opportunities to play in dance bands and radio orchestras are more plentiful Symphony orchestras Aronoff said don't actually need a player of pronounced artistic individual ity and temperament He is use ful only if he has these other more importnt qualities: 1 strong flexible sense of rhythm This demands an all around bow arm and well controll Th course of the Arno river will be tempor arily diverted this summer so ex perts can

the fact the United States has two airborne divisions in this country the 82nd and the 11th The 82nd was described be fore the outbreak of the Korean war as far nearer wartime strength and general
