THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND,' SUNDAY T.IORNINO, JUNE 27, 1S20. GREAT SWEDISH CHORUS THRILLS LARGE AUDIENCE tr. esnsssBssBaaBBsesaBssBBesessBBBB Male Singers From AH Coast I States Heard in Biennial Song -Festival at The Auditorium. Br J' I Wallln t The, UnJtedV8wedlah Sin sera of the Pacific Coast, a male chorus of about 200 voices, conducted by Axel pihl ttrom of San Francisco, sang at The Auditorium Saturday night and thrilled and swayed an audience of fully 3000. It was the first of series of two concerts, the second to be riven tonight, and it was a grand success. ' . Mine. Marie Sldcnlus Zendtcolorature soprano, of Chicago, was the assisting artist, with Edarar . CoursAri and Miss Klna Anderson the , accompanists. ' - The chorus I Composed of sintering or sanitations from . different cities In Oregon, Washington and California, and the concerts mark the biennial festival and convention of these singers, - with whom chorus singing1 is a hobby and not a profession, engaged In for the pleas ure and enjoyment that they and their friends, admirers and patrons derive from it; and not for any personal- or collective pecuniary gain. Funds ob tained through concerts or otherwise are devoted to the promotion of choral music and with the view of making each sue ceaaive singing festival a greater suc cess than its predecessor. ' - - . m BHADIXO IS WOHDEHFtJfc While excellent choruses sang, at the festivals held in Ban Vrsnclsco at the time of the Panama-Pacific exposition and at Seattle at the Alaska-Yukon ex position and also in Portland in 905. at the Lewis and Clark exposition, which, by the way, marked the organisation of the Paolflo coast body, the chorus of this festival is not only the largest but It may be said, without fear of contra diction, the best. . With a confidence born of years of ex perience. Conductor" Plhlstrom led his singers like a veteran who knows the road and his goal, and everybody was on his mettle, with the result that the response was Instantaneous and certain. What a volume of tone poured forth from these 200 throats, many of them basses of extraordinary depth ; when the di rector, Bouna-Iike, reached out' for a grand crescendo or a grand climax. There was power-sufficient, it seemed, td cause the huge building to vibrate as it does when the great pipe organ is forced tm Its utmost. And yet, there were pianissimo , passages, as delicate aa if played on muttd strings. Exjullte nuances added the delightful variety that one would suppose very difficult of per formance by such a large body of voices. VAMOl'S WORKS StTJiG : In "Hear Us Svea" and "The March of the BJorneborglans," two songs with which the Swedish Uppsala university students captured the grand prize at the Parts choral contest in 1867. the chorus scored ovations and the director had to bow, acknowledgement of the applause repeatedly, but it was in the . greater jwork.'The Vikings" by Frlberg, that the success was sensational. The incidental solo in this powerful composition was sung very ably by J. E. Wallin, bari tone. .' . Mme. Zend t proved a happily chosen soloist.

REED BAYS HE WILL TAKE FIGHT BEFORE CREDENTLVLS San Francisco, June 2.(tJ. p.) Senator James A. Reed of Missouri to night, in a peppery statement, declared he would carry to the credentials com mittee his fight for a seat In the Demo cratic convention as delegate from Mis souri. ' He was denied a seat by action of the national committee this after noon. Reed asserted that, the refusal of a seat to- him "can be taken as nothing more nor less than an effort to exclude from the councils of - the party a man whose Democracy Is unchallenged sole ly upon the ground that In the United States senate, acting under his oath Of office, he Opposed the. League Of Na tions." .', - , "The unfortunate part of it is," he added, "that If the - impression gets Jtmw. k S OSCAR M. SMITH, Manager 108 THIRD ST. NEAR WASHINGTON abroad that men ouxht to be excludfl from participation In the Democratic councils because they are not for -the League of Nations as Mr. Wlleou deliv ered it, then a large percentage of the Democratic party throughout the nation may feel that they are in like manner to be excluded. ' : , "At the hearing before the national committee, the sole question presented was whether the Fifth district of Mis souri, which regularly grlves from 10.000 to 14,000 Democratic plurality, was en titled to two delegates. "I- did not seek this ulace. I was elected in the first instance during my absence in Washington and felt that I could do nothing lens than respond to tne request of the largest Democratic district in the Vnited States. The ob jections to my credentials were purely technical. No one was here, claiming the seat; indeed, tho alternate refused to take the seat to which I had been elected and sent me a proxy author ising me to act In his stead. "In the argument before the national committee, tf.e opposition, led by a man who bolted the Democratic ticket In 189., supported by a woman who admitted she had not been a Democrat for a year, and further supported by Edward F. Coltra, national committee man, likewise of Hoetetter bitters fam. practically abandoned all argument as to the legality of my credentlsls. He based the argument against me upon the fact that I had opposed the League of Nations. The national com mittee rendered a . decision under thia state of affairs. , BAYS HE IS ROCK-RIBBED . "I have been a Democrat alt my life. I never scratched a ticket, refused to abide by a party convention, failed to support a party platform nor. bolted a psrty caucus. I have so much Inter est In the mi cocks ' of the Democratic psrty that I view this extraordinary action with deep regret for party rea son alone. Personally X care nothing about It. "I shall "carry the matter before the credentials committee, hoping and ex pecting that a different spirit will there prevail. "In seeking this seat my sole desire was to represent my district snd to do what I could to promots tho writ ing of a sound platform and the nomi nation of a good ticket. - "Any claim that I was rejected bo cause of any technicality arising over the character of my credentials sinks Into absurdity In view of the fact that the national committee seated two dele gates from the Panama canal ..ion merely because they came claiming to represent Democrats of the sons who had assembled ' on their own motion without any call or authority from the national committee. "The committee proceeded to deny me a seat, although I came as tlie undisputed representative of a district, containing 400,000 white Inhabitants snd which regularly gives a majority with out which the Democratic party run not hope to carry the state of Mis souri." o
