'T HE DAILY remarked during the regular session that the Republican party nationally was as badly disorganized as the Democratic party in Michigan. That is no longer true, for the Republicans are strongly consolidated behind Governor Landon. But the Michigan Dem- ocrats are still in a sad state. -First of all, let us look at the candidates for gov- ernor. The New Deal high command has, for some reason or other, picked Frank Murphy to head the ticket. George Welsh, Grand Rapids Re- publican turned Democrat, has picked himself. The old guard Democrats, led by former Governor Comstock, seems to favor Welsh. But the real party wheel horses, such as Edmund C. Shields obediently accept the orders of President Roose- velt. The Roosevelt strategy in picking Murphy is du- bious. The Philippine high commissioner has never been tremendously popular throughout the state. As mayor of Detroit he did passably well, but even at that Wayne County as a whole did not fall completely in love with him. And voters throughout the state may hold his religion against him. But nevertheless, the President has picked him for apparently the same reason as he picked Governor Lehman to run in New York-to carry the state for the New Deal in November. Murphy will probably get the nomination, and if he does Welsh will probably support him. But, again, if Murphy does win it, Comstock p'obably will not back him, and there are any amount of old guard Democrats who will "take a walk." While the election here may be close, an impartial observer will be forced to give the well organized forces of Governor Fitzgerald the odds at present. And who do the Democrats have to run for United States senator? They endorsed half the male population of Michigan at their convention in Grand Rapids, including Professor Muyskens, Governor Comstock and Frank Picard. But the point is that they also endorsed Senator Couz- ens, G.O.P. incumbent, who,. independent though he is, is always a Republican at election time. The Republican convention endorsed Senator Couzens too. And although the Republican ma- chine seems to favor the none-too popular Wilbur Brucker for the post, Couzens is going to make a strong and victorious run for the G.O.P. nomina- t~on. We say probably victorious again impartially. Brucker was never a popular governor. And Couz- ens, as stubborn as he may be at times has gained prestige from the charitable uses on which he has spent his millions. Also, if the. Democratic senator candidate is but a straw man (as seems to be likely) who will resign in favor of Couzens should the Detroiter win the Republican nomina- tion, many right wing democrats may vote the Republican primary just to endorse him. It (would have been better for everyone, we feel, if President Roosevelt had kept his hands off the Michigan situation. As it is, Michigan is a doubt- ful state in the national election. Welsh, a strong New Dealer, even a converted one, would have served the purposes of the White House well enough. And a large group of Democrats that resent Washington interference would not have been alienated, as they may be now. Incidentally, even though The Daily is not sure that Governor Fitzgerald should be defeated, Mr. Welsh is a capable man, as he demonstrated during his service as Republican lieutenant governor, speaker of the State House of Representatives and city manager of Grand Rapids, and a skillful poli- tician. And finally, we think it should be clearly under- stood that simply because Murphy is the New Deal's handpicked candidate for governor, is no reason why self-respecting citizens are required fn .rfaf fa a Ulnnim- z, hia -nnmmic-" .A0 Rotarian, it developed had been instructed by the national organization either to invite ministers in his city to speak in opposition to the cooperative movement, or, if they were favorable to it, to en- courage them to be silent in the pulpits on the subject. The minister declined the invitation to oppose the movement before the commercial club, but it is not likely that he will actively plea for co- operatives from his dias on Sunday mornings. His city is industrial, and many of the wealthy church members are owners of industries and business establishments. To champion a movement which is making significant inroads in capitalism's tradi- tional profit economy would be to alienate those who support his church and his own economic existence. He must choose between spreading the gospel of an ideal which is essentially more Chris- tian than the present economic system-the pro- duction of goods for use, instead of production for profit of a few--and the preaching of a re- ligion which ignores or rationalizes the incon- gruities of the present economic society. To follow the first path might force him from the min- istry which gives him a living; following the latter path, however, will more certainly secure his job tenure. This minister's position epitomizes the predica- ment of religion in the midst of a capitalist society. Two conflicting forces are at work in organized religion today: the pressure of an environment motivated by profits which tends to make the church conform if it is to exist, and the pressure of the spirit and ideals of Christ's teaching which preach the cooperative .spirit and the superior value of human personality over property values. The Christian church today is confronted with the task of making these two concepts compatible and workably harmonious. And the task is difficult and heart-breaking at times. Nurtured and sup- ported in the atmosphere of big business and com- petitive economy, it is little wonder that the church is criticized for lack of sympathetic consideration for the dispossessed and the economic derelicts. If capitalist leaders have forgotten this great mass of people, it is understandable why an institu- tion which is dependent on, and a part of this order has forgotten them too, even though such forgetfulness would be decried by the founder of Christianity. The tragedy of the Christian church today is that it has reduced and modified the gospel of Christ from a high ideal to a creed which apolo- gizes for, and is harmonious with the tenets of cap- italism. In the face of diametric differences be- tween Christianity and the philosophy of free en- terprise and competition, the church has bravely fostered a sort of double social morality. In fairness to Christianity, however, it must be said that some church bodies and sincere, prophetic ministers are breaking away from the traditional acquiescience of the church and are taking a definite stand against excessive private ownership, and the exploitation of one group by another. The Federated Council of Churches in 1932 ventured a hesitant step and declared this should be the rule of life: "Practical application of the Chris- tion principle of social well-being to the acqui- sition and use of wealth; subordination of the profit motive to the creative and cooperative spirit." Recently the Congregational and Christian Churches took a firm stand against the present economic system and scored private enterprise for its creation of industrial and social strife and perpetuation of insecurity. These indications of religion's awakening to its social responsibility, however timid, are encour- aging to those who believe Christianity is a prac- ticable, workable philosophy. There is need, how- ever, for far greater activity on the part of churches in spreading the gospel of a better eco- nomic life. All churches, in spite of admonitions from commercial clubs should actively support those economic reforms which will bring society a little nearer the precepts of the religion they profess to teach. By TUURE TENANDER AN ALL VICTOR HERBERT program will be featured at 11:30 a.m. today by the Radio City Music Hall symphony orchestra. Robert Weede, baritone, Edwina Eustis, contralto, Jan Peerce, tenor, and Viola Philo soprano will be the guest soloists. The varied program will include Moonbeams, from "The Red Mill"; Sunset; Va- quero's Song from "Natoma"; Kiss Me Again, from "Mademoiselle Modiste"; Tarantelle, from the "Suite for Cello," opus C; and the March of the Toys from "Babes in Toyland." The program will be broadcast over the NBC-WJZ network. Also on the air today over both NBC and CBS will be the broadcast of the Olympic tryouts from Randall's Island, New York. Both networks will broadcast at 1 p.m., NBC only at 2 p.m., and CBS' at 3 p.m. NBC will also carry a resume of all past Olympic games, naming all the winners of the in- ternational competitions, at 5:30 p.m. B ENNY GOODMAN, who moved into the Palo- mar ballroom in Los Angeles when Isham Jones moved out, is broadcasting regularly from the coast on a sustaining program. Needless to say, these dance broadcasts are all that could be asked for. His star trombonist, Joe Harris, has left Goodman's orchestra, but the new man, we don't know his name as yet, sounds very good. Benny is on the air Thursdays and Saturdays over CBS and on a commercial over the same network on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. Despite all the anxiety widespread at the present time regarding the coming shortage in the wheat and grain crops because of the drought, there will be plenty of corn available to all radio listeners while Henry Busse is on the ether. He of the steam lip certainly plays a mean trumpet in every sense of the word. However, if you want to hear for yourself, Hank is on the air from the Chez Paree in Chicago every night except Saturday at 11. But don't say we didn't warn you. Program Notes- By WILLIAM J. LICHTENWANGER FACULTY CONCERT Tuesday evening, July 14, 8:30 p.m. THELMA LEWIS, Soprano; STANLEY FLET- CHER, Pianists; E. WILLIAM DOTY, Organist. r HE PROGRAM for the second concert in the Summer series is extremely light and varied, having been planned with regard for the comfort of the audience, and will be but approximately an hour in length. In spite of its brevity in re- spect to time, the program includes works of al dozen different composers, representing all periods of musical composition from the seventeenth cen- tury to the present. Mr. Fletcher will open the program with the playing of Beethoven's Sonata in D Minor, Op. 31, No. 2 ("Recitative"). This work is a notable one in the life of both Beethoven the Man and Beet- hoven the Artist. It was completed sometime dur-I ing the fall of 1802, while the composer was livingt in the little village of Heiligenstadt, near Vienna, where he had gone for rest and seclusion under the affliction of his advancing deafness. There, on October 6 of that year, he wrote the famous Heiligenstadt Testament, addressed to his brothers Carl and Johann, and to posterity as well, in which he poured out his bitterness and sorrow at theI fate which was fast overtaking him, and in whichI he plead to be remembered, not as "morose,; crabbed, or misanthropical," but as "inclined to beneficence" and full of "love to man." The D Minor Sonata is a musical counterpart to the Testament, expressing something of its tragicness and philosophic resignation. In the first move- ment, the frequent recitative passages (from which, the work derives its popular name) are the elo-. quent and impressive utterings of a distressed soul, and when expanded and developed in the recapitu- lation, faintly suggest the similar though brighter and more majestic passages at the opening of the choral movement, of the Ninth Symphony. The Sonata is also interesting because it marks, as nearly as any one work can do so, the end of the composer's first period and a transition to the second. On the whole, the style is that of the Beethoven of the first two symphonies, but such passages as the above-mentioned recitatives bespeak the composer of the mighty Eroica, which even then was looming large on th composer's creative horizon. * * * * Following the playing of the Beethoven Sonata, Miss Lewis will sing a group of six numbers, all chosen from the works of 17th and 18th century composers. The first is an arietta by. Mozart, be- ginning with the words "Un moto di gioia mi sento" (Joy thrills my being), and xlas originally intended as an aria for Susannah in Act II of The Marriage of Figaro, but was later discorded. The next two selections, "O del mio dolce ardor" (My sweet passion) and "Spiagge amati" (Beloved shores), are by Gluck, the 18th century Wagner who retrieved Opera from the depths of triviality and insincerity into which it had declined. "Char- inant papillon" (Bewitching butterfly), which fol- lows, is a song by one of the early French opera composers, Andre Campra (1660-1744); following Lully and preceding Rameau, the light of his genius was overshadowed but by no means oblit- erated by that of those two stalwarts of early French music. The two concluding numbers of the group are Le Petite Gardeur de Chevres (The Little Shepherd), by another French composer, Lenormand; and Brunette, by Rameau. The latter has to do with a gay cavalier, who "on leav- ing the city of Luneville meets a pretty young maiden. 'Good morning, beautiful one. You cer- tainly are the pearl of this district. Nevertheless, you do not compare to my Fleurette.' On the outskirts of the city he meets a country maid on her way to sell flowers. 'Good-day, beautiful one. You are most charming in your short petticoats, but even so you can't compare to my Fleurette.' Many miles from Luneville he says: 'I have walked so far that here I am, and 'twould be useless to go further, for 'tis here my beloved one awaits me. So farewell to all the beautiful maidens, for none will ever compare to my Fleurette, my love of loves.'" * * * * Continuing, Mr. Doty will play a group of three organ numbers, including an impressionistic piece entitled Mist, of his own composition. A second impressionistic piece, Autumnal, is also by a Mich- igan composer, Miss Dorothy James, of Ypsilanti. A native of Chicago, and a pupil of Adolphe Weidig and of Howard Hanson, Miss James is considered by the latter to be the foremost woman composer living in America today. Her style is thoroughly modern, but marked by a conservative sensitive- ness and delicacy of feeling. The third organ se- lection is a Ronde Francaise in the Aeolian mode, by Leon Boellmann, a French composer and or- ganist of the late nineteenth century. The concluding portion of the program consists of a group of piano numbers, to be played by Mr. Fletcher, and comprises a set of six Chopin etudes, Debussy's La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin (The Girl with the Flaxen Hair), and the popular Malaguena of the modern Spanish composer, Lecuona. The Debussy piece is frequently heard in the orches- tral transcription, but it was originally written (1910) as one of a group of twenty-four descriptive piano pieces which the composer classified under the general title of "Preludes." This heat wave offers us, in the almost verbatim immortal words of U. S. Grant, no terms other than an air-conditional surrender. -New York Tines. Sir Samuel Hoare said there will be a British fleet in the Mediterranean for another 300 years. But it surely ought not to take the Baldwin Cabinet that long to decide on a definite policy. -The New York Times. DAILY OFFICIAL' BULLETIN VOL. XLV.
