General Motors
And The Recession.
W ILLIAM KNUDSEN, president of
General Motors Corporation, told the
Senate Unemployment Committee Thursday that
it is better to curtail production than to work off
inventories through reduced prices and thereby
displayed the kind of economic logic which has
served to intensify and prolong depressions
throughout the history of the industrial era.
This cellophane argument of Knudsen's should
be judged by the effects of curtailment of pro-
duction and maintenance of prices on general
psychology of businessmen and consumers and
mass purchasing power.
General Motors laid off 30,000 men Monday
morning. By that step it reduced the number of
potential buyers not only of its own cars but of
used cars, furniture, houses, refrigerators, vacuum
cleaners and other commodities by such propor-
tions of that 30,000 as were considering these
purchases. Not only did it directly cut the pur-
chasing power of 30,000 people and their families
but indirectly it affected everyone in the country
in such a way that unless he is totally unaware
of the fact that there is a recession he will tend
to cut down on almost all purchases that are not
absolutely essential.
G. M., among other companies, will suffer,
for there will end to be less demand than ever
for-its cars. Mr. Knudsen said he believed the
slump will be short-lived and that his company
was making plans accordingly.
These plans, judging by the concrete things
already done, included laying off 30,000 men and
shortening the working hours of those workers
that were retained to twenty-four hours a week.
If G.M. really thinks that this re'cession is short-
lived, then their laying off the men is inconsistent
with this belief. Laying off the men necessarily
implies that the huge inventory which, Knudsen
says, makes essential curtailment of production'
will not be absorbed by purchases because of
direct and indirect effects on purchasing power
aecause of that lay-off. Not only will that pres-
ent inventory not be taken care of, but the cars
produced on a shortened production schedule
will not all be absorbed, so that G. M. will have
tolay off more men, repeating the first cycle'of
lay offs, resulting in further reduced purchasing
power and, less demand for G.M. cars with
more and more disastrous results.
If G.M. believes this is going to be a long
depression, not only is its president perjuring
himself, but the same disastrous consequences
are bound to result as in the first case -from
the policy upon which it has set out.
General Motors cannot of course be blamed
for prolonging the recession. Its case was cited,
because it illustrates the near-sighted and cir-
cular reasoning that governs heavy industry as a
whole, and which may be prolonging this depres-
sion. This reasoning postulates the maintenance
of prices when demand falls off and immediate
curtailment of production, even though demand
more than likely has fallen off but temporarily.
Whatever the immediate causes of this reces-
sion, heavy industry has intensified it needlessly;
though not necessarily deliberately.
In General Motors' case sales were going strong
through October and to the last ten days in No-
vember. Sales dropped then to 70 per cent of
the figure for the same period last year. A
shortened production schedule was immediately
considered. In the second period in December
sales dropped to 45 per cent. General Motors
thought it necessary to adjust its working force
UNDER 4
THE CLOCK
with DISRAELIL
(This column is written by Robert "Bojangles"
Perlman)
When you take the subway at Fifth Avenue and
51st Street and emerge a few minutes later from
the Second Avenue station on New York's East
Side, you leave one world of fashionable shops
that have the conservatism and substantiality of
the New York Times, and enter another world
of dirty red brick tenements and narrow side
streets, where Jews (mostly without money) buy
and sell from pushcarts, sit in delicatessens and
argue over coffee, read their daily newspapers
printed in Yiddish and generally create that
melding of Old and New World culture that is the
East Side'.
Second Avenue is the Broadway of the East
Side, where troupers speak their lines and sing
their songs in Yiddish, that mixture of Ger-
man, ancient Hebrew and the languages of the
countries where Jews have lived in the past few
centuries.
During the late vacation, we went to see one of
the big musical comedy hits of Second Avenue,
"My Malkele," with Molly Picon, one of The
Stars of the Yiddish theatre world, which has
its own set of customs and criteria for both
sides of the footlights.
Some Difficulty About Seats
We had hardly taken our seats in the balcony,
when the woman seven rows ahead turned,
around and good-naturedly told us, "My seat is
way over there, but I don't like to sit on the side."
Three minutes after the curtain rose, the crowd
was really beginning to come in and among
them was the man who had bought the seat the
woman was occupying. Their argument over who
should have the seat drowned out the voices of
the actors and ended only after the usher was.
called in to arbitrate. He decided that the
woman should move; but the whole business
started all over again when she got to her right-
ful seat and had to dislodge the man sitting
there.
All this time the crowd was pouring in, greet-
ing their friends warmly, discussing the last
time they saw Molly Picon and generally milling
around so that the actors could be neither heard
nor seen. But the playwrights of the Yiddish
theatre know the informal congeniality of their
audiences and so they are scrupulously careful
to see that nothing whatever happens on the
stage for the first fifteen minutes, which is
just about the time it takes for one half of the
audience to shush the other half. The crowd
finally settled down in its unsettled way to watch
the play.
The show, "My Malkele," seems to have been
written primarily to give Miss Picon every op-
portunity to use her real ability as a mimic and
to allow Aaron Lebedeff, another big timer, to
strut his stuff. (Incidentally, speaking of actors,
Paul Muni and Edward G. Robinson are twc
alumni of the Yiddish theatre.) The story opens
in a small Polish town; the next scene is in
Vienna, the next in Flatbush, Long Island, and
then in Hollywood-only the war seems to have
stopped them from continuing to the Orient.-
What there is of a story is about Malkele, who
marries the man her mother was not allowed
to marry, in order to come to America to marry
the man she loves, who becomes the husband
of a Hollywood actress-anyway Malkele finally
comes to the conclusion, "What was good enough
for my mother, is good enough for me."
As Many Dialects As Actors
No two actors, by the way, speak the same
brand of Yiddish; some use the Polish dialect,
some the Russian variety and some merely speak
New York American with a phrase from the Old
Country thrown in now and then to convince the
old timers that it's the real McCoy. Sort of the
"You say either, I say eyether" stuff.
One might suppose that the rather racy, earthy
comedy lines and situations show the American
influence; but the old men with dimming sight
seem to have heard some of these on the Other
Side and they relish the new ones with what
appears to be a decidedly unreligious air. But
then, we heard a very orthodox person from
the Old Country remark, "If you want to know
God, you must know men."
Getting back to the show, the drawing room
sets feature quite blinding green, pink and silver
walls with chromium chairs and busts of Beetho-
ven scattered about. And the more green, pink
and silver there was, the more the fellow next
to us leaned over and said, "Beautiful scenery
I know. I'm an actor," in a whisper that was
undoubtedly meant for his brother-in-law twenty
feet away.
Swinging The Old Tunes
As for music, they've got some catchy tuhes
that combine the emotional character of old
Jewish melodies with swing, a la "Bei Mir Bist
du Schoen." One of the high spots is when the
black-robed Talmudic students, off the boat a
few weeks, take up gum-chewing, full dress suits
and trucking to these tunes.
But the audience is really three quarters of the
show. One man munches apples from a paper
bag that he rattles incessantly. Another hisses
the singer and immediately has a fist shaken at
him by some one eleven rows in front. Opinions
on the condition of Molly Picon's voice are given
by the experts; and everyone is an expert.
Most characteristic of the audience is their
desire to participate in the show. They almost
get on the stage. Lebedeff capitalized on that
when he had the crowd sing, whistle and clap
in time to his song, which of course got five
encores and almost killed the other actors. All
that was missing was a spotlight for the balcony.

Goodby to all this. Not for many months at
any rate, will there be any more reports about
life along the New England frontier. Already the
chariot which we hope will get us to town is
skidding. around the drive-
way.
I know that readers will
hardly mourn the cessation
Df country correspondence in
these columns. My only ex-
"?cuse has been that to a street
urchin the sights, sounds
and the sting of winter out
where the pavement ends has
a quality of excitement.
It is an experience to meet snow, particularly
when the introduction comes in middle life. Of
course, I cannot speak quite from the point of
view of a South African pygmy. Even before this
I have seen snow from the taxicab window, and
on some braw mornings the bartender has passed
a remark about the elements outside and the
possibility of a blizzard. But it is only with the
last few weeks that I have had snow down my
neck and up my nose.
The Duty To Be Serious
To be sure, the nose of a commentator ought
to be kept close to the grindstone of current
events. In a world of war and rumors of war
and struggle and crisis it is, I guess, a kind of
slackerism to spend even a single contribution
upon the razzle-dazzle of a sky all trimmed with
candles or to attempt to stop the presses with the
news that snow under strong sun is not white but
more gaudy than a peacock's tail or a Caribbean
beach.
I am aware that painters have made this dis-
covery years before I got around to it. Even so, I
had a feeling that these men were the "art art-
ists" of whom Mayor Hylan spoke. Until I saw
for myself I had no faith in the purples, yellows
and vermillions which are to be seen in the ob-
servant records of the landscape man. Yet till
the day I die I will remember a morning of just
last week in which from across the lake my eye
followed the spectrum as it splashed its show on
ice and snow and on the stone walls of a familiar
house.
These are the same effects which a boss light-
ing man can get upon a concrete dome in a
theatre, but With far greater intensity. And, like
the man who looked upon the Medusa, I was
struck to stone by the impact of more beauty
than I had ever known. Nor were the reckless
males of mythology altogether fools if their last
conscious impression before annihilation was one
so piercing and profound. Perseus, perhaps, was
overcautious in seeking to see wonder only
through a glass darkly. Whatever came to him
in later life one-half so precious as a fine free
look?
Less Snow And More Politics
But as the anthem of "Pins and Needles" says,
"Sing me a song of social significance." It will
be my vow and mission to follow that advice from
now on in the writing of columns.
I will try to stay away from Miami this winter,
even though I see by the papers that a horse at
Tropical Park won at odds of 285 to 1.
Of course, I might not have had it. The jockey,
Schlenker, was unknown to me. Still, when I.
discussed the matter with Connie she said, "I
don't see how you could have failed to bet on
it. One of my cousins married a man named
Schlenker."
But I must put aside childish things and hie me
to Washington, where truth is truth and men
are Congressmen. Still, there ought to be some
social significance in beauty, and some day there
will, because, according to the poet, that is the
other thing we need to know.

The Hot Record Exchange in New York City
has sent many of us of late romping through
the old record collection at home, at grand-
father's, at the cottage and even under the rugs
at Aunt Helen's, looking for ancient waxings,
many of which this infant corporation will now
give you from one to twenty-five dollars for.
Most cherished among these musical antiques
are those that have the work of Red Nichols, Joe
Venuti and the late Bix Beiderbecke and Miff
( Mole. Some of the more valuable discs come
under rather deceiving names such as "The Red
Heads" and "The Charleston Chasers" (Red
Nichols), and others will merely tell the name of
the leader, not naming the important artists.
Some of these names are the Nichols' "Pennies,"
"New Orleans Rhythm Kings," "Bix (Beider-
becke) and his Gang," Miff Mole's "Little Mol-
ers" and Earl Fulller's "Original Dixieland Jazz
Band."
We attempted to sneak some of these valuable
waxings from our granfather's turing the vaca-
tion but failed. In the first place, there weren't
any, and in the second place the the examin...
er, there weren't any. All we could find were
some venerable comic monologues, one of which
had the intriguing title, "If You Talk In Your
Sleep, Please Leave Me Out Of The Conversa-
tion." Two other fascinating titles which we
once had, but which have been missing from the
files now for several years, were recordings by
that hottest of all hot colored songbirds, Bessie-
Smith. The titles were the pleading "You Ain't
Quittin' Me Without Twn Wek's Notice "andi

"eil Toscanini!
By this time there should be no one
left within radio-shot of America'
who could not name in one guess the
biggest musical event of the year. On
Christmas night at 10 p.m. after the
greatest publicity build-up of modern
musical history, the National Broad-
casting Company presented to a
breath-holding world its long-her-
alded holiday gift: Arturo Toscanini
conducting the all-star NBC Sym-
phony.
In Studio 8-H at Radio City an
ultra select crowd of more than 1,-
400 be-ermined and be-jeweled not-
ables, representing the diplomatic
and social as well as all the various
artistic worlds, made the event a
perfect radio version of the most
sumptuous of Metropolitan Opera;
openings. Resemblance to a theatre
or concert was so striking that some
of the guests attempted to leave the
studio for the accustomed smoke dur-
ing the intermission, but there the re-
semblance stopped, for they were po-
litely but firmly ushered back to their
seats. Then some even tried to smoke
in the studio. At the end the pleased
and smiling Maestro was applauded
for seven solid minutes by the studio
1,400, and applause is still going up
from the estimated 20,000,000 who
heard but saw not-the largest au-
dience ever to hear a musical broad-
cast.
And, apart from the front-page
news value of the event, apart from
its unquestionable significance as a
forward step in the progress of
American music and music every-
where, the performance that night
was every bit worthy of its adulator3
applause judged from a strictly es-
thetic viewpoint. The Vivaldi D min-
or Concerto and the Mozart G minor
Symphony were superlatively played,
but-the Brahms! No musical per-
formance ever heard over radio be-
gins to approach that night's C minor
Symphony in brilliant and thrilling
performance. That such a trans-
cedent sphere can not be reached
every time, even by a Toscanini, wa
evident in the still superlative but
less breath-taking second broadcas
a week later.
Technically,, these concerts by thi
NBC Symphony are said to be thf
most nearly perfect musical broad-
casts on the air. Even the matter of
noisy paper programs has receive(
attention. At first, to avoid disturb-
ing crackles, programs were printet
on a thick, porous material resemb
ling blotting paper. On Christma
night, in keeping with the artistic lux.
ury of the occasion, a rayon materia
was used. The Jan. 1 broadcas-
brought out programs printed or
sheets of cork, but still the engineer,
are not satisfied . . . While they are
perfecting this detail, perhaps the,
can work out a noiseless clapping.
machine for people who simply mus
applaud every five minutes during
concert and for seven encores at th
end..
