To Slow

PARIS ('Reutersl — The 31- Organization for Eco- nomic Co-operarion and Devel- opment Wednesday warned Brit- ain to slow down her rate of growth to avoid a return to excess demand and balance of payments difficulties.

In a survey of Britain's eco- nomic situation and economic policy problems. the OECD

“Tire response of the economy to last year’s reflationary mess:

“The response of the economy to last year's reflationary meas- ures has been so lively that some slowing down in the rate of growth is now called for.

The riti‘sh government should, however. avoid meas- ures that risked totally ending the expansionary phase, it said.

The OECD said it is too early

Growth

as yet to judge the success of the new policy of achieving a steady rate of growth and thus avoiding a return to "stop and go" measures, but govern- ment was clearly aiming at a break-through to faster

im- provement in Britain's relative competitive position, which would take some of the sirens off the balance of payments.

"To achieve this will require vigorous action to stimulate competition and to moderate the rise in money incomes." the survey stated.

Areas where changes are most urgent included pricing policies in industry, collective bargaining, labor mobility and apprenticeship, it added.

Near CaPaCilY Audience ‘EnlOYS' Die Fledermaus‘

(The following was writ-. ' ten especially for The Guardian by the director of music for P.E.I.)

By CHRISTOPHER-GLEleth ‘ An almost capacity crowd ‘ flocked last night to hear and see the first night of “die fled- ez'mnus" at the Confederation Theatre. They were regaled with a glorious evening of fas- cinating melodies that time has not tarnished, riotously amus- ing situations and something of the true Viennese Gemuetlich- kcit—and all this by a Canadian

company.

I found the singing in all very acceptable on the whole. The one or two outstand- ing voices, John Arab as Alfred has a lovely ringing tenor voice

remarkable smoothness and evenness of quality, and he dis- played s fine sense of comedy as the vain and rather stupid

opera er.

Sheila Piercey has a remark- able voice, though she still has some difficulty in controlling it at times. Her opening cadenza (a cruel test to have to start with no preliminary warm-up) indicated the problem of agile vocal movement when the singer is gifted with a large voice.

MORE AT HOME

. does not matter much in light opera. Anyone who has heard a Sullivan operetts ac-

companied by an adequate or- chestra will know what I mean. Strauss’s orchestration, while lacking the almost Mozartean clarity of Sullivan or the witty flavor of Offenbach, is thorough- ly workmanlike: that is to say. it sounds relatively miserable when shorn of its plumage and played in a piano reduction.

LOCAL CHORUS?

The chorus was a bit thin on the ground, but performed man- fully. The thought occurred to me that it might be possible to recruit and rehearse in advance a body of local singers to form the chorus. There would 0 vicusly be big difficulties to overcome, but the effect could he so much better. and the ex- perience gained by the local singers could have a most en- couraging effect on the develop- ment of Opera.

The costumes were colorful and in keeping with the period. Roselinda's disguise was very poor. Surely the most obtuse husband would have seen through it in two seconds. A dark wig and a much fuller mask would have done the trick.

We were amused by some topical references to N is Khrushchev, the Canada Coun- cil and other matters. They added to the fun, even though they did not exactly fit in with the story.

I am sorry to say that the sets were terrible. Surely. with all the resources of this wonder- ful theatre something better could have been forthcoming. The Cupids in Act One looked like incbriated versions of Mister Clean trampling on bleeding hearts . . . The Vien-

But the Uni-ted States’ 12 lu- nar shors over six failed. The most disappointing was Ranger 6, which crashed on the moon as ‘planned last January but failed to return pictures. Premature turn-on of cameras was blamed.

Ranger 7 has a mission iden- tical to No. 6. Rangers 8 and s are to have similar missions.

A success would yield pic- lures infinitely more valuable than those from ' Illl.

Ranger 7's six cameras are designed to start radioing pic- tures to earth from an, altitude of 1,100 miles down to impact. .
