America To Stand,
Baruch Declare.'
At Dedication
. Dyerville, Calif. OJ.PJ Elder
Statesman Bernard M. Baruch
celebrated his 82nd birthday
in the heart of a redwood forest
thousands of years old Tuesday
and said America will stand "in
destructable till the end of time."
.. The silver-haired adviser to
presidents said in a prepared
statement beneath the world's
tallest tree that in such a set
ting a man could be hopeful
"that the dream of America
a dream of peace and plenty
with equality of opportunity
will come true.
America Will Wand
"No matter what dread at
tacks may come," he sad.
"America will stand, sheltering,
Inspiring, indestructible till the
end of time."
Baruch addressed officials of
the Redwood Empire association,
Gov. Earl Warren of California
onr nthpr dienitaries who had
come to dedicate a redwood
"birthday bench" beneath the
giant, 364-foot tree to the wist
ful park-bench phuosopner.
A replica of a bench near the
White House 'in Washington,
4-ho roriurnnri tench symbolizes
Ml- w -
the many benches Baruch has
sat upon during ana Deiweeu
two world wars while ponder
ing critical affairs of state.

were still . being circulated in
Salem Tuesday to put a collec

that civil service employees may
not legally circulate them.
Police and firemen sought to
place both a collective bargain
ing measure and one for a 40
hour week on the ballot. They
were warned last week that
they faced suspension from their
jobs if they continued to circu-
late the petitions themselves.

Stravinsky and Schoenberg
Not Latest Words in Music
New York (U.R) If you think
that Stravinsky is .modern and
Schoenberg is the last word in
music, you are considerably off
the vanguard beam. Otherwise
you would know that atonality
is on its way out and percussion
ism cajoles the progressive ear.
Percussionism won official rec
ognition in New York by the
traditional supporter of artistic
revolutions: the Junior Council
of the Museum of Modern Art,
headed by Mrs. John D. Rocke
feller HI. .
The council presented this
latest musical vanguard in a con
cert 'entitled "Music for Percus
sion" a kind of free-for-all for
xylophones, tympanies, . trum
pets, percussions, bongos and
wood blocks. Among the works
presented were a Suite for Tym
pani by Elliott Carter, "Ritmo
Jondo" for percussion, clarinet,
tympani, trumpet and handlap
pers by Carlos Surinach and a
Sonata for Piano, Tympani,
Xylophone and Percussion by
Peggy Glanville-Hicks. To use
the quip of an inveterate punster:
"the percussion' concert was a
real hit." .
"Who are the percussionists
and what do they want?" Peggy
Glanville-Hicks was asked after
the hitting, smacking, banging
and groaning was over.

"Our movement was initiated
20 years ago by Henry Cowell
and Edgard Varese" said the
young composer and music critic.
."Paul Bowles, Lou .Harrison,
John Cage, Colin McPhee and
Alan Hovhaness are our other
leaders."
The percussionists want to
change music entirely, explained
Mrs. Glanville-Hicks. Melody, al
ready on the wane since the days
of atonality, is completely disre
garded. They consider harmony
a "dated decorative device."
Their music consists of rhythm
and nothing but rhythm.
The exclusion of melody and
harmony is but part of the per
cussionist program. Another
thing is the elimination of the
tempered scale which has been
the musical alphabet of western
civilization for the last 300 years.
Anything Goes
The percussionists call the
tempered scale an "aesthetic dis
aster" and declare that they don't
want to be shackled by it. They
intend to use any audible tone
and not only those that can be
produced on a conventional in
strument. They have conse
quently replaced such, traditional
instruments as the violin and the
'cello by such musical- new
comers 'as the siren, the road
drill, the rice bowl and the brake
drum. They use, of course, all

Sit-Down Strike Wins
Temporary Alimony

to hear her plea for temporary
alimony. She started a sit-down

provided it doesn't sound like
one. For that purpose the per
cussionist leader, John Cage, has
changed his piano by attaching to
its interior hairpins, nails,
screws, weather stripping and
bamboo slats. In that way he
succeeded ', in eliminating .the
famous Steinway tone in favour
of a. shower of pings, thuds,
woody, bell-like or chirping
tones, explained Mrs. Glanville
Hicks. ,

all, a detour she said musingly.
"At present we are swinging
