CALDWELL This is a night in February, 1934. This is Madison Square Garden. Hillsides of gown and broadcloth, packed tier on tier some 20,000 humans strong, slope in dark hush to where, under its cone of white light, the shining battery of the orchestra is tensed. Ferde Grofe, composer and conductor, twice taps the edge of his tiny desk, then lifts the baton high. And suddenly listen! for it is 1934's musical sensation! the 90-man symphony breathes life, breathes the opening- bars of "Madison Square Garden." "I think," Ferde Grofe said today, "I think that pretty soon I will be getting to work on 'Madison Square Garden'." And to show that this was true he put on his hat and coat and gloves, he got his broadest shovel, he told his wife to notify all callers that he was at work, and he went out to shovel snow off the sidewalk in front of his home at 95 Norma Road.

To get this number the size of forces eiiKHged was reckoned at one for each 100.000 men; the duration was valued at one for each year; number of casualties rated one for each 10 per cent of total men engaged who were killed or wounded; and the number of adversaries rated one for each opixment country.

Ragsdale, organizer of the Rutherford Unit of the State Taxpay ers' Association, called for reduction of education and municipal govern ment costs in Bergen County In a statement issued this morning. The Rutherford Unit, ne said, will demand a $100,000 reduction this year.

"At this time," he said, "when the county Chamber Commerce is indulging in lis annual New Year's frolic of baiting the freeholders for their alleged extravagance, it might be timely for this organization as well as other taxpayers' organizations to turn their attention towaids the startling Increase in the costs of local government and education in Bergen County for the last twenty years." He stated that In the last elevAi years, costs of -'ducat' $4,235,749 in 1922, have almost doubled. Municipal government cost has increased even more rapidly, he claimed, rising from $3,137,217 in 1922 to $8,961,203 111 1933. "In 1913." he maintained, "the combined cost of local government and education In the entire county was "The amount of money needed to conduct the county's business, and appropriated by the Board of Freeholders, rose fmm $616,953 in 1913 to In 1933. The population of the county rose from 138,002 in 1910 to 364,977 In 1930. During this same period the cost of conducting local governments and financing education throughout the county increased over ten from about $1,500,000 to over $18,000,000."

I BV WALTER BROl KMANN (Associated Press Forelnn Slam Berlin, Dec. 28 It is Uxj late for convicts in German penitentiaries to resolve to make good this new year. On Jan. 1934, a new penal code goes Into effect.

It is described by some as perhaps the most drastic of modem times. Many of those now behind the bars face extended sentences as a result. Since the advent to power of Chancellor Adolf Hitler, fifty persons have been executed under specially passed and still existing laws interpreted partly to apply to political and crun-lnal slaylngs. Awaiting execution In his cell at Leipzig. Marlnus Van Der Lubbe, young Dutch bricklayer, is the first man ever sentenced to death for arson in Germany.

ARSON IS HIGH CRIME The law under which he was condemned last Saturday was iasscd Just after the Reichstag Building fire. Feb. 27. It was declared retroactive, making Van Der Lubbc's confessed crime of starting the fire high treason. Beginning with the new year, more rigorous measures hailed as "genuine Justice" will be inaugurated.

Committees are at work "HitlTlz-lng" some twenty kinds of Justice, ranging all the way from matrimonial to maritime. Compulsory sterilization laws go into effect Jan. 1, too, along with a new civil code. That also is the date for the reinstallation of military courts. That criminals and malefactors are beyond redemption Is tile attitude indicated by the new criminal laws.

Serious offenders who are considered to constitute "a public menace" will not be released from jail even after serving their sentences. They will be compelled to perform forced labor as long as they are so considered. There is a clause for sterilization of "dangerous sex criminals." Under the general sterilization law. probably the greatest roundup of sick human beings in medical history Is occurring as a prelude to putting It into effect. ONLY ONE ESCAPE On Jan.

1, 1,700 eugenic courts will begin to function to pass on the cases of an estimated 400,000 "hereditary incurables." One of the most striking features of the sterilization law is that anyone sentenced may escape only by going Into an institution for the rest of his life at his own expense. Commenting on this, the Frankfurter Zeitung said "The rich can 1 evade sterilization by restricting their liberty, but for the poor there is no way out. In "cases of necessity" the law provides that police may be called to quell a rebellious patient on the operating table. Only when sterilization may entail peril to life may exemptions be made. Operations will not be permitted on youths under 14, nor in cases in which "for advanced age or other reasons, the person concerned la not capable of reproduction." Beginning Jan.

1, military courts will begin to function as In imperial times for the Reichswehr and navy. Death by shooting lias been reinstated as capita! punishment for soldiers. Members of Hitler's party and his storm troops are subject to special jurisdiction. C. W.

A. TO SURVEY JERSEY'S HEALTH (Bv Associated Press) Trenton, Dec. 28 New Jersey's Department of Health announced today it had obtained the services of 175 C. W. A.

workers, mostly women, to carry on a house-to-house canvass to survey health conditions among children too young to attend school. Particular inquiry Is to be made of the effectiveness of past inoculations and the need for future immunization against diphtheria and small pox, as well as whether the children have been given the benent of medical and dental examinations. Another aim of the survey Is to determine to what extent children have had the common contagious diseases. Stock-taking of this sort, the Department pointed out, will be "of great value to the public health in that it will reveal how successful we have been and at the same time show where further work is necessary." Results of the survey will be turned over to health authorities of the various communities in order that they may peruse "weak spots" in their areas. GRANTED LICENSE Tenacre Sanitarium.

Onre Shut, May Run On Restricted Basis fBy Assoct.i'ed Press Trenton, Dec. 28 The Tenacre Sanitarium at Princeton, which lost its license when Charles Berton, of East Orange died there with a broken neck last June, has been granted a restricted permit by the board of control of the State Department of Institutions. The institution, which la privately owned, may operate as a nursing home. It may not accept operative, surgical, contagious disease or acutely mentally disturbed cases.

Ellis reported that although in the first five months of the fiscal year there was an increase of 664 persons in state institutions, operating costs were less. This is a per capita cost of $1.00 as compared with $108 for a similar period last year.

Walker Cites Forces For Adjustments (By Associated PresM Philadelphia. Dec. 28 Discussing radical changes forced upon State governments by the depression, Mable L. Walker, executive secretary of the Oeneral Welfare Tax League, says "perhaps the most spectacular development in State finance has been the impetuous swing to general sales taxes." In an address for delivery before the annual convention of the American Political Science Association, one of 15 national groups studying the ills of the world at a joint socio-economic conference, she said the striking changes now taking place in the State governments are "the result of a number of very powerful forces act ing upon the legislatures." "Such forces are the revolt of the taxpayers, particularly of real estate i groups: financial distress of municipalities; diminishing State revenues pressure of the federal government for recognition by the states of their responsibility in relieving unem- nlnvrnfint arid thp nrpnrp nf opinion to the same end, Miss Wal ker said. "Underlying the entire situation, there seems to be an unmistakable trend toward greater centralization of local areas and a greater state control of local unite.

At tr same time the local governments are being drawn closer to Washington. "It maj well be a such local and state centralization as is taking place is an intermediate step that will accelerate rather than prevent a closer relationship between Federal and local jovernments." Asserting that while state governments did not feel the burden of the depression as quickly as some other units, Miss Walker said it is in the field of state government that "we are witnessing the most revolutionary changes in the reven-e system." Among these changes she listed 1933 "unprecedented crop" of tax-limit laws; the "widespread resort to new taxes" and the "impertuous swing to general sales taxes" which she termed "perhaps the most spectacular development in state finance." CLAIMS CHINESE ARE DEPRESSED 'What's The Use' Idea In Their Thoughts New York The problems China Is facing today seem overwhelming but no visitor could move among the Chinese people without feeling that as a people they can never be completely overwhelmed. This is one of the impressions of Miss Sarah S. Lyon, executive of the Foreign Division of the Y. W.

C. A. of this country, who has just returned to the States after several months spent In the countries of the Far East. There is a striking sense of hopelessness and futility expressed by many people. Miss Lyon reports.

In general Chinese men and women feel that the world has deserted them and that help from other nations Is only likely to lead to a campaign of imperialism. They feel that their own government is inadequate, that Japan is strong and prepared. A "what's-the-use" sort of idea permeates their thought. Evidences of "militarism on the march" were reported in every country Miss Lyon visited. "In Japan it began with a unique landing of my jat in Yukuhama harbor in absolute darkness.

In China we passed soldiers in lorry or freight cars where-ever we moved. In the Philippines and in Hon ilulu American barrac ks and soldiers were in evidence. In San Francisco wc were welcomed by the Pacific fleet. The.se external significances seemed less significant than the prevailing attitude of moral aimament on the part of all except a few of the most pacifistlc elders and idealistic youth."

Henry Harrison of Newark, member of the Board of Bar Examiners, said today. Additional work, caused In some resxct by innumerable rumors of cheating in the examinations, all of which have been proven untrue and unfounded, is given as the reason for the delay, the results generally being announced Dec. 23 as a sort of Christmas present to the embryo lawyers, Mr.

Harrison admitted that the rumors of cheating had been prevalent and widespread but were "without The most common rumor, according to Mr. -Harrison, was that advance copies of the examination questions had been secured and sold or distributed to many applicants In South Jersey. This was perturbing to North Jersey examinees, since it would seem to work for the passing of all applicants from the other section of the state and would cause a greater proportion of failures than ordinary among the North Jersey group. "It is only a possibility but there may have been a racket of some kind." Harrison said. "Somebody might have obtained the old examination papers up to three or four years ago and used them to make a set-up of what he might pass off as the examination to be held.

Anybody who bought such a sit-up would be stuck and stuck badly. We have no proof that such a tiring happened, however. It Is only a possibility." Mr. Harrison also characterized as "ridiculous" the rumor that the law school records of some students had been subpoenaed by the Board for comparison with the bar examination marks. R.

FERDE GROFE SUPPORT JAZZ, ENGLISH OPERA Hanson, Erskine Uphold American Composers Associated Press! Lincoln, Dec. 28 Jazz music if it good and the English opera have a staunch defender in Dr.

Howard Hanson, Nebraska born composer and president of a Rochester, N. conservatory. Dr. John Erskine, noted author and head of another New York music school, added his support to the work of American composers as the two yes terday discussed the problems and achievements of musicians before several hundred persons attending the 55th annual convention of the Music Teachers National Association. "It is stupid to try to give operas In a language people can't understand," Hanson said, adding that English is a better language for composers than either French Or German.

He predicted that in 10 years the United States will lead the world in music. "First rate Jazz is as full of harmonic and orchestra interest as it is of rhythm," he declared while explaining that it is possible to have an appreciation for both Jazz and classics and that it is stupid to condemn all jazz music. Dr. Peter W. Dykcma of Columbia University said municipalities doubtless would be called uppn in the future to furnish music halls, instruments and equipment for music.

Just as they are called upon now to furnish playgrounds- and equipment for them to take up the play hours of children. EXPANSION SEEN AS YEAR STARTS Finance Advisors Think 1931 Favorable The outlook for 1934 appears to be more clearly defined as Jan. 1 approaches than the 1933 outlook appeared twelve months ago in the opinion of Brookmlre, of New York. They say in a statement made public today, that sinee the long deflation has been broken, the natural thing to expect is that an upward spiral will be set In motion which will last for some time just as has happened in similar periods in the past. While there are still retarding influences, in Brookmlre's opinion, the excesses of the summer bulge are being eliminated and it is their Judgment that the year 1934 will be one of general expansion in business.

They add that the gains expected in 1934 will not be confined to consumption goods alone but will also include capital goods. In Brookmlre's belief there will be further progress in the restoration of prices and in the nation's Income, and facts which they have gatherd in the past few weeks show that the reaction of last summer is gradually giving way to renewed expansion. Consequently, the coming spring rise will be materially greater than normal. With the increase of pro.lts in 1934. dividends will be raised which will have a favorable effect on the stock and bond markets, and Brookmlre recommends that its clients" funds should be employed 100 per cent in the purchase of securities.

It is also their opinion that users of commodities should follow a policy of protecting requirements through the first half of the year at least and funds should be borrowed freely where advisable to increase output and to build up stocks of finished goods. Sales and advertising campaigns should be extended in the particular territories that offer the greatest consumer income. 5 LOSE LICENSES Bergen Residents Among 25 In State Who lorfeit Drivins Rights to the Bergen Evening Record1 Trenton.

It is more than that.

Broadway says it is war: it is the opening engagement in the bitter feud between Grofe and his on-time maestro, aide, and buddy. Paul Whiteman. But the Teaneck conn iser. easing snow meticulously into winding Norma Road, managed to preserve his peace about both premiere and Paul. "I have the 'Madison Square Garden' suite all lined up." he said.

"Written it? No. But I know what the episodes will be: SixrDay Race, Rodeo, Championship Bout, Circus, and Political Convention. And I can work pretty fast when I have to. I wrote Tabloid' in ten days. I orchestrated Rhapsody in Blue' in a week or so.

Besides, I'm getting ideas all the time. He pushed another cubic foot of snow into the gutter. "Shovelling snow, he said, is as good as hiking for getting ideas. When I can't get ideas sitting down I go for a hike a couple of miles around town, but when snow is on the About Whiteman and that war? Well, people were putting two and two together. Didn't Whiteman last month stage his fifth American con cert? And wasn't it an awful flop? And didn't, a couple of days later, word leak out that Grofe was going to put on a symphony-jazz-idiom concert of his own? And Isn't it plausible that a Grofe triumph would give him the victory in this two-year feud between him and Uie King of Jazz? No feud," said Grofe.

"I'm not going to try to compete with White-man. In his field he's the master. My orchestra will be the regular symphony organization no saxophones, no trick instruments. I wouldn't try to beat Whiteman at jazz. That's But didn't he and Whiteman break? VICTIM OF ECONOMY "No break," the stout fellow with the shovel insisted.

"Paul just started an economy drive and cut me 35 per cent. So I'm paddling my own canoe." He hummed a snatch of song. "And gcttin" along." He hummed another, and toed a piece of snow into the gutter. Grofe not only doesn't know yet what "Madison Square Garden," with its promised musical kayo, will sound like. He doesn't know yet what the program will look like.

"I'll have a program of American modern music," he said, and then added, "I think." Among them may be a form of instrumentation new in concert work. Herman Wassermann, pianist, has devised concert arrangements of "Sophisticated Lady" and "Morning, Noon and Night." Grofe will orchestrate the arrangements and the pieces will be played as quasi-con-certos. Wassermann has also written a piece he calls "Dreams" which Grofe is instrumentating. The Teaneck composer said it was beautiful, and he uses that word about once a I month. David Gulon, southern com- poser, wrote a primitive ballet (Gu- ion's wording) labeled It will be on the program.
