Mr. Horace MacEwen, Guest Artist, Gave Outstanding P e r - formance.‘

The first meeting oi the Wo- menb-Musio Club in I080 took the form of a guest recital held on Saturday afternoon in the main lounge of the Canadian National Hotel. ‘

The chief alias of the Women's Music Club, formed in Ociobe 1929, have‘ been to help develop an appreciation of music in the young people, to foster talent and to sponsor artists as oiuin as possible. The club deserves unstlnted praise for its accomplishment it has at all times supported the Community Concert Association and other mu- sisal organizations and generously donated prizes in musical and oth- er competitions. _

In introducing the guest artist Mr. Horace Macllwen, the Presid- ent, Mrs. K. S. Rogers, , sued pleasure at being able to introduce a Charlottetown boy and an out- standing performer.

The long and difficult pro- gramme was played ‘with such re- markably fluent ease by Mr. Mac- Ewen that it left no doubt of his ability as a pianist and M his as- sured success in the future.

To Charlottetown audiences his steady progress evident with his every appearance and his mastery and skill of interpretation are al- ready developed to a marked de- gree. I-Iis technique is excellent and ho has "a particularly nice light tone. 'I‘his delicacy of touch so necessary for Chopin, - rhaps made his Chopin group the favour- ite to many in the audience.

ITALIAN BOMBINGS AR OUSE

indication of a change today in the attitude of the British Sol/Em- ment toward oil and other sanc- tions becauae of President Ftoose-

Congress last Friday night.

The consensus appeared to be. however, that the consequences of the address: might be far-reaching on the Italo-Ethiopian crisis. The British government has firmly supported economic and fin- ancial sanctions against Italy. But Britain also made clear she would take no isolated action in connec- tion with the conflict and insisted on the principle oi collective action by League members as the only way to halt the war.

In ‘the foreign debate in the House 0f Commons on Dec. l9,

the Exchequer, said the govern- ment was prepared to play its part in collective action, including an oil embargo, if assured all league members were ready to share in meeting an attack which might re- sult from imposition of oil sanc- tions. Officials received Pre s i d e nt Roosevelt's spceclbpvith keen inter- est but declined to comment. Press interpretations yesterday showed differing reactions. "There is a. statesmanllke caution about President Roosevelt's mess- age,” said the Evening News. “But its meaning is clear-America is not going to take the leading part in any dangerous sanctions game. The American people are going to keep clear of war-like entangle- ments, the most perilous of which would be an oil embargo. "Great Britain has just as much reason as the United States to keep clear of it. “President Roosevelt is still the happy warrior," said the Star. "His speech to Congress strikes another doughty blow for democracy and the policy of the good neighbor. Mr. Roosevelt is making history and not as an isolation apostle oi Cain, aloof from the welfare oi men beyond his own domestic cabbage-patch." The Evening Standard said: "It is clear beyond dispute that the top, bottom and middle oi Amer- ican policy ls isolation. Primarily. as he must, Roosevelt seeks to safeguard the well-being of Am- erica. But he hopes also the coun- try's example of peaceful isolation will be followed by other powers. "That is the lead Roosevelt gives to Britain. When we too resolve to cut away every entanglement which might involve us in other people's wars, we shall be begin- ning a permanent and glorious partnership with our kinsmen oi the United States-a partnership of peace and a pattern to the world." I ‘The Daily Herald, under the heading "Roosevelt will impose oil embargo," said: “Once the United States decides upon action, the oil embargo becomes a swift and certain means of stopping war. Should the League refuse to use that means they will be deliber- ately allowing the continuation 0i Wu»

The News-Chronicle said: "What counts first is that the President's lead-providing congress backs him —should notably ease the vital mu or the Leagiw in are-isms lor- ward an oil embargo against the Italian likressor." t

Womeni Better E du c a t e d Than Men

(C.P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

OTTAWA, Jan. ‘i Recent edu- cational surveys tend to show that Canadian women are better educa- tsd than Canadian men and pay more attention to the education of their children than do the males.

On the average, according to re- turns collected by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, girls spend half a year longer in school than do boys. This condition has pre- vailed since tile beginning oi the pre=ent century.

A b e rh art Says Press Becoming A Nu i s a n c e

CAIGARY, Jan. 5-‘—"The press is becoming a nuisance,’ Premier Ab- erhart of AIDQTRB. declared here t0- day in an address at his prophetic Bible institute and added “people must control their own press." “We don't want a press but may- be we will have to have one," the Premier said. "If I say to you some day you are going to have a daily paper, are you going to support us?" The Premier charged that a writ- er in a Canadian magazine had made incorrect statements concern- ing the Biblejnstltute and himself and had escaped legal penalties by "technical terms."

"He also said I had made a lot of money and that the Bible In- stitute had issued no financial statements," Mr. Abcrhart contin- ued. "Over and over again I have asserted and asserted I never re- ceived any money from this church. We pay auditors to go over the books." _.

He said the maganne writer had qualified his assertion by the phrase “rumor said’ I had made money.”

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Jan. 5-— Serum rushed through below-zero weather in another epic aerial dash by Joe Crosson, “mercy" air hero. was used today in Fairbanks’ battle against scarlet fever.

Dr. F. B. Gillespie, deputy ter- ritorial health officer, began im- mediate administration of the anti- toxin.

The little city of 2,500 remained in a. virtual state oi siege. Special police continued to patrol the streets. Schools, churches, theatres. the University of Alaska and all public meeting places were closed. A dozen persons were ill with the disease and 20 others were sus- pected of contagion.

"It was all in the day's work," said Crosson, the man who flew the bodies of Will Rogers and Wiley Post from Point Barrow to Seattle after their fatal plane crash.

He and two other fliers made a fast 1,600-mile round trip flight to Juneau and back after the serum supply here was exhausted.

It was 42 degrees below zero when Crosson, co-pilot "Murray Stewart and Flight Mechanic J. Ames, left Fairbanks and 45 be- low when they returned last night, nine hours and 42 minutes later.

Hauptmann Quietly A w a i t s Clemency Plea-Morrows En- routeTo Join Lind- berghs.

(A. P. By Guardlalfs Special Wire)

LLANDAFF, Wales, Jan. 5.—Be- hind a screen of elaborate police protection, Col and Mrs.. Charles Lindbergh and their three-year-old second son, Jon, quietly enjoyed the first Sunday in their Welsh refuge today.

Detectives were on the grounds of the home of J. Llewellyn Morgan, kinsman by marriage of Mrs. Lind- ‘rergh. There were two uniformed officers on bicycles and a police car patrolled the street outside the house.

The reason for these precautions was not stated.

Heavy rain kept the Lindberghs inside the house today. A few friends of the family called.

Although the Colonel had indica- ted he would make a. statement to- day. he later changed his mind and decided to issue none. '

The Lindberghs arrived at the Morgan home last night, coming from Liverpool, where they disem- banked from a transatlantic boat Tuesday. .

They are expected to remain for several weeks, at least until after the week of Jan. 13--when Bruno Richard Hauptmann is scheduled to die for the murder of their first son.

ENROUTE T0 EUR-OPE

NEW YORK. Jan. 5.—-Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow and her youngest daugh- ter, Constance. were en route‘ to Europe tonight for a visit to rela- tives in Wales. where apparently they will rejoin Col; and Mrs. Charles Lindbergh. The visit had been planned. however. before the Lindberghs’ decision to leave the rUnlted States.

Mrs. Morrow, widow of the late New Jersey Senator and mother of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, and A1155 Morrow sailed on the German liner Bremen Saturday, line officials in- dicated, although they were not on ihe passenger list.‘ They probably booked passage through an agent. Tile Dally News said threats against the Morrow family had been renewed in the last few weeks. Con- stance several times has been threatened with kidnapping. One D1015 against her was believed thwar- ted when Colonel Lindbergh flew her secretly from the Morrow home in Fillglewood. N.J., to their summer home in North Haven, Me., three years before the Lindbergh child was stolen.
