Monteverdi’s
“Lasciatemi
Morire” and the subtle under
standing of Garat’s "Dans le
Printemps de Mes Années” and
Moussorgsky’s “ Silent
Room”
were moving to hear. The per
suasive fervor of Mendelssohn’s
“ Lord God of Abraham” was
as stirring as was the prayer
of Boris from the Moussorgsky
opera, “ Boris Godounoff.”
There were many other songs
and types in a program which
grew far beyond the printed
list as the singer revised and
augmented sections virtually at
will. The fascination of this de
vice was in the element o f sur
prise it contained; turning up
such Robeson hits as “ Water
doors to Ada Lois Sipuel of Chick- j Boy” and bringing Mr. Brown

PAUL ROBESON
BY HILMAR GRONDAHL
Music Editor, The Oregonian
The voice which thrilled thou
sands here in the title role of
Shakespeare’s “Othello” a sea
son ago was back at the public
auditorium Saturday night pour
ing its spacious vitality into the
ears of nearly 5000 listeners.
Paul Robeson, now more bass
than baritone, was again on the
concert platform,
with Law
rence Brown again as his ac
companist and occasional vocal
associate. William Shatzkamer,
pianist, was assisting artist. And
then there was “ Cynthia.”
Mr. Robeson’s excursion onto
the stage has done his singing
no harm. On the contrary, we
would say that it had immensely
helped the one phase of this
singer’s art in which he was
least able to realize his poten
tialities: the interpretive phase.
Mr. Robeson has always had
what can justly be called one of
the richest, most sensuously vi
tal voices of any male singer.
To this listener at least it
seems that Mr. Robeson has re
turned to the concert stage with
his interpretive gifts refined,
enlarged and admirably expres
sible. His illuminative handline
Plans to sponsor a drive for
membership in the Urban Lea

national association which works
for the integration of the Negro

The League is supported by the
community chest and voluntary
contributions. Membership fees
(one dollar) cover the cost of

other League information. The
Community Chest apportions its
funds on the basis of the peopic
in the community who are inter
ested in the organization. By con
sulting membership rolls, the a-
mount to be given to a service
committee such as the League is
determined.
The race relations committee,
consisting of John McKenzie,
chairman, J o a n
Rosenbaum,
Merle Meacham, Norm Lezin, and
Judy Booth, plans an integrated
program to inform the Reed com
munity of the worth of the Lea
gue and the work it is doing in
the Portland area.

You are the best worker of tha
three. The other fellow and I are
a little lazy.
The other fellow deeides to bo
a politician. He runs on a sort of
socialist platform and gets my
vote by telling me that he’ll take
care of me all m y life. He gets
my vote and he gets his own, so
he is elected.
'He levies high taxes, and since

"The only force that will suc
ceed in pushing back the terror
of Fascism is the working class”,
said Myra Tanner Weis of the
Socialist Workers Party at a
meeting last week at Anna Mann.
Speaking on the topic of “Anti-
Negro Terror in the Post-war
Crisis” she first pointed out the
causes of the terrifying acts now
being perpetrated all over the
United States. The years around
1920 were called the Golden Era
because it was thought the capi
talist class had found a way to
lead America on the road to last
ing prosperity. This belief, how
ever, was shattered in the thirties
when the American Capitalistic
system entered a depression from
which it has never fully recov
ered.
Due to these conditions, race
discrimination has increased and
has assumed a more brutal form.
Miss Weis believes that the eco
nomic crisis has caused the
growth of fascism in America.
Her specific example of what
is occuring at the present time
was the Fontana case. This was
a case which occurred in Califor
nia against the Short family.
This family was threatened by
Vigilantes because they were liv
ing in a white district. A short
time later their home mysterious
ly burned down and the mother
and two children were killed. The
father died soon afterward from
injuries of the fire.
In the investigation that fol
lowed, there was such a display
of injustice that the Socialist La
bor Party launched a campaign
to tell the story of the Short fam
ily to workers and students
throughout the West.
Miss Weis said that the im
portant problem lying before us
now is to do something about
this wave of terror spreading
throughout the country. Unless
some action is taicen about the
Fontana Case there is a danger
of further growth of Vigilante
groups.
The final aim of the struggle
against fascism, according to this
speaker, is that a socialistic so
ciety takes the place of the cap
italistic society. “No one has an
inherent prejudice. This has been
bred by the system. Unless we
find a socialistic solution we will
have fascism in the United
States.”
