Music, Now More Than Ever Voicing the need for music, the following article by the Hon. Wra. H. Wood In, secretary of the United States treasury, condensed by Rob erta Ward Bebb. was read yester day afternoon by LaMurle Beck at the recital at the Bebb home. It la considered especially appropriate for the opening of music week and In that spirit Is repeated here: Perhaps his love for music has brought more publicity to the Hon. Wm. Hartman Woodln, secretary of the United States treasury, since his appointment, than anything else. Although very modest about his mu sic, he plays the piano, the guitar. the cello, the violin, and the either. He has published a number of works for orchestra and has also written a very effective Norwegian Rhapsody. His works have been played by the Berlin, Vienna, and Milwaukee Symphony orchestras. His! recent composition, "Roosevelt's i March," was Just last week broad cast from Washington, D. 0., over the National Broadcasting company. His opinions are particularly sig nificant at this time because he is convinced "that music, right now, Is ons of the things which will ss- slst in the reconstruction period, by giving conn nonce. "Just now music and music study are practical needs of every man. "Precisely, as tha boy whistles In stinctively to keep up his courage, so sre we all crying for something to bring about confidence and to displace the absurd hysteria of fear which In the last few years has made men and women avoid the great responsibilities which these times demand. "Stimulating muslo right now is most valuable.

I feel sorry for the Individual, par ticularly the body, whose parents have neglected to see to it that be has the best musical training pro curable not with the view to mak ing him a professional musician, but with the Idea of giving htm the wonderful mental acceleration that music brings and the soul cleansing qualities which only beautiful music seems to have. "Music study affords an Invalu able mental discipline and la one of the most sensible investments a. parent can make for a child. The parent may not understand the mystery of muslo. but he must real- i tze that music has great force and significance.
