EPT. 20, 1939 THE MICHIGAN DAILY I New York City Votes Today In Last Purge Tilt Rep. O'Connor Opposes New Dealer Fay Who Is Supported By Roosevelt The Democ'ats of a section of New York .City will decide today (Tues- day) the outcome of the last of Presi- dent Roosevelt's announced efforts to rid Congress of Democrats whom he calls Conservatives. They will choose between Rep. John J. O'Connor, whom Mr. Roose- velt has denounced as "one of the most effective obstructionists" in the House, and James H. Fay, New Deal- er backed personally by the Chief Executive. Although the President was beaten in similar fights recently in the Dem- ocratic Senatorial primaries of South Carolina, Georgia and Maryland, Mr. Roosevejlt's aides indicated they were hopeful of better fortune in New York. Because of its national aspects, the O'Connor-Fay contest overshadowed other primary elections today throughout the remaindr of New York and in three other states-New Jersey, Wisconsin and Massachu- setts. In New Jersey, former Sen. W. Warren Barbour was seeking the Re- publican Senatorial nomination against C. Dan Coskey and George 0. Pullen. William H. Ely was un- opposed for the Democratic nomina- tion. The Massachusetts primaries pre- sented spirited contests for the guber- natorial nominations of both par- ties. Gov. Charles F. Hurley, Demo- crat, was opposed by former Gov. James M. Curley, Francis E. Kelly and Richard M. Russell. Leverett Sal- tonstall, Frederick Butler, William McMasters and Richard D. Whit- comb contested for the Republican nomination. In Wisconsin, Sen. F. Ryan Duff y was unopposed for renomination of the Democratic ticket. Six men ran for the Republican Senatorial nom- ination, and two for the Progressive. Gov. Philip F. LaFollette,seeking re- nomination by the Progressive Party, was opposed by Glenn Turner, a former Socialist. Attempting to ce- ment opposition to LaFollette, Robert K. Henry ran for governor on both Republican and Democratic tickets.' His opponents were two Democrats and three Republicans. As chairman of the House Rules Committee, Representative O'Connor of New York holds a key position in the progress of legislation. With but few exceptions, all bills must e ap- proved by his committee before they can come up for discussion on the floor of the House. White House displeasure with O'- Connor is said commonly to have had its start at the time the Public Utili- ty Holding Company Bill and its so- called "death sentence" provisions were before Congress. More recently, O'Connor opposed the Government Reorganization Bill, a measure upon which the President has insisted. In addition to seeking Democratic renomination, O'Connor entered him- self as a candidate for the Republican nomination. In that contest, he was opposed by Allen Dulles. Fire Prevention Week WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-(IP)-- President Roosevelt has designated the week beginning Oct. 9 as fire Prevention week. His proclamation emphasized the "disastrous conse- quences of preventable fires." Nothing Musical Under The Sun, Stumps Versatile Prof. Muddy Interlochen Music Camp Founder Has Taught In' Ann Arbor Since 1924 Composer of symphonies, master of every band instrument, director of three radio broadcasts and a super- visor of two others, lecturer, director of the National Music Camp at Inter- lochen are only a few of the positions held at the present time by the versa- tile Dr. Joseph E. Maddy, professor of music in the Institute of Fine Arts, professor of public school music in the School of Music and in charge of radio music instruction. In 1924, Professor Maddy came to, Ann Arbor to supervise music in Ann Arbor public schools and the public school music department of the University School of Music which at that time was not affiliated with the University. He immediately started' a supervisors' orchestra among his students which within a year dis- placed the old symphony orchestra as the University Symphony. Professor Maddy was made a pro- fessor of music in the newly created Fine Arts division in 1928 with in- structions to promote music any- where and everywhere without re- strictions. In addition he became a member of the Extension Division under which he gave lectures throughout the state. In the same year and two years later he or- ganized and conducted a National High School Orchestra in Chicago for the Music Educators National Con- ference. From 1926 to 1934, Professor Maddy acted as chairman of the National Band and Orchestra Contests and for the past two years as president of the Music Educators National Con- ference of which he is now first vice- president. The National Music Camp at Inter- lochen, Mich., was inaugurated by him in 1928. He still directs this group which he will take to New York City for a week in August next year to play for the World's Fair. Featured at Interlochen are the radio workshop, laboratory courses in ra- dio programs and visual aid, i.e., mo- tion pictures and radio. In 1931. Professor Maddy conceived the idea of teaching music by air. After receiving permission from Prof. Waldo Abbot, director of the Univer- sity Broadcasting Service, he began teaching band instruments by means of voluntary bands in the studio. This was so popular that the NBC network became interested putting him on a national hookup from Chi- cago for the past two seasons. This year the program will originate from Ann Arbor, the first time that the network has allowed a University to originate continual programs. That these programs reach afar is evi- denced by letters of commendation received from England, Scotland, Ireland, Egypt, Syria, South Africa and New Zealand. In addition to the band lessons, Professor Maddy conducts a hymn singing class over WJR on Sundays and an elementary singing class on Mondays. Two oth- er programs supervised by him are the Music and American Youth pro- gram over the NBC and the Ameri- can School of the Air over the CBS. Through the Extension Division, Professor Maddy gives lectures throughout the state. As a result of these he started the first CCC band in the United States at Camp Goge- bic in the upper penninsula. Since then he has been made supervisor of music in the army in Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin. Since 1928, Professor Maddy's serv- ices have been in great demand for the organization of all-state bands, orchestras and choruses in many states of the Union including In- diana, Michigan, Illinois, Kansas, New York, West Virginia, Tennessee, Florida, Oklahoma, Colorado, Iowa, Utah, Georgia, New Jersey, South Dakota, New Mexico and Louisiana. Last spring, Professor Maddy scored a complete symphony in con- junction with Allan Grant of the NBC network. Based on Stephen Foster's melodies, the symphony, en- titled "Southland," was presented at Interlochen this summer and will be given at the New York World's Fair next year.
