Chamberlain made his an- nouncement as the financial bill. embodying the budget proposals for the current. year, was given third reading. Third reading was moved by W. S. Morrison, par- liarnentary secretary to the trees- ury. and carried without a div- ision.

Chamberlain said the sins of the deficit was not known yet. It was necessary, he declared, to make "this country safe" and to put it in a position to fulfill its League oi Nations obligations.

‘Great arrears," he added, must be made up quickly. and “during that short time we must face all together exceptionally abnormal tend "phenomenal rates of expendi- ure.

lllllfll PIANISI HEARD HERE IN FINE lE_c|TA-l

Performance By Mr. Paul De Marky At Government House Last Evening.

the on- .

inospheie of Government Hungarian pianist. now head of the

Versity, performed to the intense delight of an audience of two hun- dred people. The recital was un- der the auspices of the Ladies‘ Mu- sic Club whose president, Mrs. Keith Rogers, briefly and grace- Jully introduced the artist. Mr. do Mark}/'s technical equipment was undoubtedly the most. complete and magnificent that has ever been heard in this city. His playing was subtle, deucate, sombre and slormy as the composition demanded; his interpretations for so young an artist were highly distinguished. From his opening with the P01- onaise in A Flat, op. 53, of Chopin, Mr. de Marky proceeded to astound with the sheer cleverness and bril- liance of his virtuosity. Whatever might be felt as to his interpreta- tions of the Chopin compositions there was no doubt. that here was the expression of a highly original and deeply emotional musical gen- ius expressing it.se'i’. The opening of the Polonaise. perhaps, did not have all the carrying power of which it was capable. but Mr. de Markyamply atoned for this by the stirring performance of the

, climax to the middle section and

the repetition of the opening. Af- ter this Mr. de Marky p‘ayed the quiet and appealing Brahms ar- rangement of w the gavotte from "Iphlgenla in'Ai1lis" of Gluck.

Of the remaining Chopin compo- :-itions the chef d’oeuvre was the Sonata in B Minor, 01). fifty- eight, a work planned in noble proportions and running through the whole gamut of musi- cal expression. The playing of the Bcherso was memorable for its fine rendition of the mysterious middle section and the finale. though perhaps played a litre too rapidly. was breath-taking in its sheer sonorlt/y and energetfc power. The C-Sharp Minor Waltz and two studies. including the ever-popular "Butterfly." were played with de- lighliiul and exquisite sparkle, Perhaps the most significant composition on the programme was the "Variations on the Theme of Paganini." by the great master Johannes Brahms. These. twenty- four in number. '..:-re played only‘ in part but left a deep lmproseion 0.’ Mr. de Mai'ky’s real gifts as a musician. There were moments in some of the quieter variations when he clusht all the serene remote- ness. that is the soul of Brahms‘ music, and this is one of the in- igllible signs of profound musician- s ip.

The remaining compositions heard on the programme were a Nocturne for the left hand by Al- exander 5crlab'ne, Llszt's Ls Cam- panells, which though pretty much of a sport, was very finely per- formed, and lastly a splendid ar- rangement oi the Blue Danube Waltz, great music in spite of its extreme D°Du'arit.y, in fact. the very waltz of which Brahms said. "unfortunately not by me."

We hope it will be our pleasure to hear Mr de Marky again in the not too distant future. All success to him.

SAINT JO!-IN. N. 13.. July 3- Legislation recently adopted by the provincial government has proven "entirely inadequate and ineffectual in correcting the de- p‘.ora.ble employment conditions. existing in this city and other sections of New Brunswick. mem-' bers declared tonight at a meet- ing of the Saint John Trades and Labor Council.

It was decided that the New Brunswick F‘edera.t.lon of Labor be requested to co-operate with local council in urging upon the govern- ment the immediate appointment of a royal commission including labor representation, "for the pur- pose of conducting a, thorough in- vestigatlon of labor conditions in the province and to make recom- mendations to the government for correction of such conditions."

In a statement released after meeting, officials declared the council has b-en conducting its own investigation of working con- ditions. and reports on the probe were presented “showing wage levels in sevoml local industries far below sufficient to provide dc- cent living standards."

Before his attempt, Lux had sent an envelope to the League secret- arial; containing a number of let- ters, one addruscd to King Ed- ward and others protesting against Germany's treatment of the Jews to the Manchesber Guardian and Joseph Avenol, League secretary- general.

Lux was taken to hospital where he died.
