WARREN SENATORS AND PARITY. The hard-won London naval treaty is at last before that superb- ly nationali'stic/ body, the United States Senate. Secretary of State Stimson at the head of his fellow Stimson constantly reflects the ex- treme difficulty with which any sort of an agreement was reached. He admits that our delegation had to overlook the qutestion of naval bases when considering Anglo- American parity. He admits that it also had to overlook the compar- ative size of merchant marines, as well as that of cruiser gun size. In order to come home with a treaty at all, Secretary Stimson and his naval experts had to agree that a squadron of United States cruisers mounting 6-inch guns, other things being equal, could fight a draw battle with a British squadron of equal tonnage mounting 8-inch guns. The Senate will decide be- fore ratifying whether essential parity is guaranteed us despite sacrifices which our delegation made, or whether, perhaps, the mere fact of the treaty's existence, is worth these sacrifices. There are, of course, certain psychological advantages to follow prompt ratification. The United States would regain a measure of diplomatic grace in the eyes of the Old World; we would repair to: some extent the resentment arous- ed by our high-hat policy of splen- did isolation. We would help lay strong foundations for the perpet- uation of "naval building holidays," and we would be doing our bit toj keep alive the waning enthusiasm for 'disarmament. History proves, however, that these intangible considerations weigh little with our Senate, whichk is hard-headed and close-fisted to the last ditch in international af- fairs. Our senators vote not for ideals but for cold, hard things like I parity. If actual parity with GreatI Britain is provided by the London! treaty, they will probably ratify it. If not-and they look sharply into things of this nature, we can trust 1 them not to ratify simply because Secretary Stimson worked hard to! bring some sort of a treaty home from London, or because the ad- ministration needs an accomplish- ment "to view with pride" for fall election purposes. 0 MORROW-DIPLOMAT OR j STRADDLER?

Pictorially, Ruggiero Ricci was quite as exciting as everyone expectedI him to be. A small study in black and white, his slight body charged I with energy and swaying with impatient zest, making music by the grace of God one wanted to feel but obviously with his fleet fingers nonchalantly tuning his violin in his rests, at all times in perfect poise-a few feet from him Frederick Stock, to most of us symbolic of a stern, grave musical intelligence, following the boy's music eagerly' and carefully-behind him two or three score of grown men, their faces mingling awe, admiration, despair and joy. The beautiful picture alone probably would have stirred the ejaculatory incoherence that was the audience leaving Hill Auditorium yesterday afternoon. But musically, Ricci was much more exciting than everyone expected him to be. The sheer accuracy of his musical intuitions-as well as the phenomenal technique that translated them--should have squelched forever, as it did mine, any superciliousness, the 'oh yes, a prodigy, a boy who plays violin well' attitude.' There was more than lovely, charming child animation in Ricci's temperament. It had burning vitality and real feeling. Beethoven's music-with intentions all pretty clearly defined and little introversion- proved an unexpectedly fine vehicle for the child. Ricci, not old enough to be a virtuoso in the sense of the supreme trickster, or to realize how widely exhibitionism is accepted, was at all times genuine in feeling. One couldn't credit him with taste (the word has a connotation of acquiring with years(. Musical divinations, probably inexplicable, were prompting technique. He modelled a melody not with the self-conscious- ness of a man like Zimbalist intellectually comprehending its quality, but with a feeling for its inevitable form (the rondo theme in the last,! rmovement for example). His phrasing had spontaneity and genuineness; he attained precision without insisting on it with too studied emphasis like ai older violinist undoubtedly would. All his nuances and inflections were sensitive rather than mechanical. In the cadenzas he was more conscious of his own playing, hence slightly less satisfactory; but bril- liance of his technique carried him through, as it does so many. His slow movement-because of the sweetness rather than the depth in his tone-was rather more lyrical than contemplative; which is descrip- tion rather than criticism. All in all, the wunderkind:s blazing intuitions proved more exciting than Zimbalist's complacency and pedantry in the Brahms concerto last year. Zimbalist had taste. Some five thousand people, I think, think Ricci has genius. The children's chorus, as usual, proved enjoyable. They consistently fail to get any enthusiasm or vitality into tleir attacks; but they are accurate always and precise. Miss Higbee has definitely perfected the intonation this year, probably at the expense of some of the eagerness that proves so attractive. The Mozart Cradle Song was the best of the shorter numbers. Miss Strong's Symphony of Song proved a capable, humorous setting of some of A. A. Milne's whimsy from When*We Very Young. Miss Strong's orchestration seemed definitely more interesting than her choral writing which was conventional. The Chicago Orchestra, diminished, gave a fine rendering of the fourth Brandenberg Concerto. Stock's Bach (though Delamarter con- ducted, one can safely assume it was Stock's Bach) is quite more pure than Stowkowski's. There is °no rhythmic surging, no striving for emotional overtones. Stock's reverence. I think, pleases less people than Stowkowski's virtuosity; but very probably the minority includes all the important people. Mendelssohn's concertino for flute was played precisely who unmistakably were taking a malicious delight in the naivete. Greener LWNS rich, velvety Here's the modern way to richer, greener lawns!

The Secretary is of course anxious that the ratification should be accomplished; it would lend prestige to his stewardship of the State portfolio, and above all it would lend the color of accom- plishment to the administration of his friend, President Hoover. As regards accomplishments, t h e Hoover administration is to date rather,-colorless. The burden of Secretary Stim- son's argument is that the London treaty finally assures the United States of naval parity with Great Britain. He is wise in pressing that point. If he can establish it to the satisfaction of 64 senators, it will constitute a well-nigh overwhelm- ingly argument in favor of ratifi- cation. Should he perchance fail to establish it, the long-heralded offspring of his London labors will certainly pass to that cheerless Senatorial limbo where the League of Nations now reposes. ]Except for this alleged parity with Great Britain there is no con- crete achievement of the treaty on which Secretary Stimson can rea- sonably base a demand for ratifi-. cation. The London deliberations failed to provide the reductions in total naval armament and the con- sequent savings that the Rapidan agreement foreshadowed. They failed to their intended compre- hensionsiveness when France and Italy went home without signing anything. They eased up on the 5-3 ratio between the United States and Japan to the annoyance of our West coast in general and Senator Nirm m Thncnn in nanri lr Mrf would. judge after hearing his late speech to New Jersey voters.
