Amalgamation Of Orchestras A Wage Issue Philharmonic and National Mergod Because Players Kcfused to Modify Pay Scale Granted in War Burden Proved Too Heavy Union President Advocated Coneession Causing Row Ending in Police Court The first toll in the predicted death knell of symphony orchestras, unless ihey can be conducted on a non-union basis, or unless so-called radicals in tho musicians' unions desist in their efforts to keep up labor costs in the 'face of 'nlling prices and unemployment, was sOBtUMd J esterday. This came in thc veport that the announeed amalgama? tion of the Philharmonic Soeiety and the National Symphony Orchestra was due to the refusal of a large number of the members of the local musicians' union fco revoke the present wage scale and thereby permit a profit rather than a |oas in the prcsentation of symphony concerts. According to a statement by Artur Uodansky, conductor of the National, which i-> the junior symphony organi .ation. thc amalgamation was due to the refu.sal of 100 men in his orchestra to heed the appeal of Samuel Finkel stei::, president of the local union, to ;.ccept what was ca'led a necessary cut in eanrngs that the National Sym i>hony Orchestra rci~ht live without the need of increasing the burden of its -upport. which is borne by rich men interested in the organization. That at ;east 100 s rnphony musicians will suf 7"er from this stand of the alleged radi tals is made clear by the statement that in the combined body next season only 100 picked men will be required, ?vhere at present 200 are employed. While Joseph N. Weber, president of 'hi- American Federation of Musicians, was unwilling to admit that the con solidation was due to the action of **~e musicians oppoaing t!;c cut in pay for rehearsals ar.d for the granting ol more time for rehearsals, he was quite frank in saying that he had seen tieuble ahead and had asked Finkel? stein to put the proposal for decreas ir.g expenses up to the union members. Thia request to the musicians was made to the members of the National Symphony Orchestra by Finkelstein re? cently after a rehearsal and resulted :!most directly in the row which ended in the arrest of eight members of Musicians Local, 310, Fri'ay. Finkel --tein's speech asking that the men ? cte to revoke the wage scale. adopted a year ago, which provided for a mini ?;:um wage scale of $60 a week, i?r> for -?very extra rehearsal and $3 an hour, 'or overtime, was reported to the board "i directors of the lecal union. The board of directors immediately ?uspended Finkelstein from the office ??' president of the local. whereupon he appealed to the national president, '?Vtber. Weber reinstated Finkelstein on a stay of judgment, which resulted in deliance of the national union by the heard of directors, as a r< which Weber expelled the directors :"rom the American Federation ' of Musicians. Then came the meeting Friday and the row which ended in li e court. For some time it has been known t 'n&t there i;-> a wide breach in the local union, with the radical element on tht ?>ne sido and the conservaiives on thc other. It has been stated, and re peatedly, that few symphony or uhestras could su'rvivc under the pres ? nt wage scale, and it W7is no surprise ?vhen thc announcement came several days ago that there would bo only twe recognized symphony organizations in Xew York next season?the Philhar? monic and the New York. "Whether the amalgamation of the iwo societies was due to the action oi *he members o_f the National Sym ohony or whether it would have come anyway because of the feeling that 'hree such organizations could not sur ivc another slump such as the present amusement season is going through, ii i question," a man well up in thc music circle in New York said yester ...

The eooperation?primarily de signed, it may be supposed, for the sake of Mr. Yon's Gregorian concerto for organ and orchestra, which was the middle number of the program?also made possible the performance of Saint-Saens's symphony in C minor, which has an organ part and also a pianoforte part?the latter, we think, so negligible that the fact. that only one player was intrusted with the parts of two players need not. he dweit upon. After all, with twelve more symphony concerts confronting us within the next seven days, what sig nifies a voice in the band dropped out here and there? Mere records are be? coming sufficient because records only I are possible. There being an organ in Aeolian Hall, Mr. Yon made it very audlble in the symphony?more audible, indeed (so it seemed to us) than in his own concerto written for the instrument. In this the king of musical instru? ments became little moro than one of many orchestral subjects, and nided ! them in promulgating some honest and I solid music, free from striving after sensationaHxm in either the harmonic I or color department. We had expected j an effort (which we hopo will be made i by Mr. Yon or one of his colleagues familiar w'th ecclesiastical music) to utilize Gregorian melodies to sym I phonic er*ds_, for there muctbe inter i esting possjbi'ities in* that direction; but as was exp^ined in the program n trp. and was obvious ^rpm the music. Mr. Yon did not use the adjective in 'his sense, but meant only that h's music was ba ed on tho diatonic in stead of the chromatic scale. lt was 1 good, ear-filling music, which was well p'ayed and sonorous though never noisy, a<- thr symphony was at times The other pieces were two of the ex j cerpts from Casse'la's ballet suite, "Le Couvent sur l'eau"; "Barcarolle" (with Mis9 Henrietta Gonrad. soprano); "Old Ladies' Dance," heard at the Historical Concert in Carnegie ITall last Thurs? day, and the "Tannhaitser" overturo. H. E. K. ?? .? Hofmaim Ghes Second Recital Josef Hofmann -jave his second niano recital of the season at Carnegie i Hall yesterday afternoon before an ! audience that completely tllled the hall. He played a Chopin' program. which included the sonata in B minor, Op. 58, a noct-rne in E major, valse in F minor, balb.de in F minor, barce.use, mazurka in A flat major, scherzo in C sharp minor, three etudes in A flat major.

New Roof Show Is See ii at The Century Dancers Carry Off Most of the Honors at First Per? formance of "The Micl night Rounders of 1921" By Heywood Broun No midnight show offera vory much for thc critie to writo about. Certainly "Tho Midnight Rounders of 1921," which was produced at tho Contury Theatet* for the first time on Saturday night, is not an exception to this gen erallzation. Practically all these shows are put on in more or less informal fashion at the ilrst performance. Tho producer fears that his entertainment is a little too long. After the ftrst night he knows that it is. Often he has a suspieion that not al! thc acts aro uniformly good. The first night alBO offers him a convenient method of proving that theory as well. f Probably there is enough good ina terial in "The Midnight Rounders" to make an excellent show when every? thing has been boiled down. The danc? ing should be one of tbe features in the resulting product. In this respect. thc performance is amply provided. The amazing Jessica Brown still goes on her way as the most dazzling of the acrobatic dancers who have taken "Ex celsior" as their motto. There is also quality in the kicking cf John Guiran, who performs Bome astounding feats with his partner, La Petite Margue rite. Gladys Walton and John Lowe also perform pleasingly. None of the singing is distinguished and none of the comedians seemed amusing Saturday, although tl.ey were, somewhat handicapped by the fact that not more than one word in two could be heard on account of the din of the ftrst night audience. Even J. Francis Dooley and Corinne SaleB, long known as one of the most amusing of vaude? ville teams, accomplished little toward the creation of merriment. Visually the show waa much more successful. The costuming, while not inspired, is generally pleasing; the ballot, although meaningless, i ; gay in color. The most 3:uvel feature of the eve? ning was provided by Arthur Donnelly, who made ?Ludows upon a screen with his fingers. It is of such simple de vices that the best of roof shows are compounded. The swans, rabbits, monkeys and the entire crew of shad ows which Donnelly threw upon the screen seemed not in the least flus *cred whether people talked or not. Probably only. active minded persons ever go to midnight shows, anyhow. Those who have nothing to talk about go to bed.

On the Screen William Hart and Charlie Chap lin Se*u in New Photoplays at Uic Rivoli and Strand By Harriette Underhill. William S. Hart's titular names nrc always descriptive, and usually allitcr utive. In thc present picture the cap tion 1b both, "O'Malley of the Mount* ed." It is a ftne name. It pleases the eye and the ear. meaning, of course, that lt ploases tne eye when it is out in electric lights in front of the Rivoli Theater. Now, knowing Bill Hart as you do, and his capacity for being' noble, wouldn't you fancy that "O'Malley of the Mounted" waa a story about a mounted policeman in Canada, who,was assipned to cateh a desperate criminal hiding ln the mountains, and that, when he finally caught him, ho had a beautiful and good aister named Rose who needed protection, and that O'Mal? ley let the brother go free for love of thc sister? ? Well, in a nutshell, that is just what it is about. It is an excellent pietui.', perfect in every detail, but there are no surprises in it. Now, if Mr. Hart really wanted to spring a surprise on his followers, some time he might give a bad perfonnance. Hut he is so letter perfect that he annoys one. at times like little Archie used to annoy us ut school. because he could always spell everybody'else down and knew the capi? tal of Oregon. Or, if Bill doesn't want to give anything but an A-l perform? ance, then why doesn't ho play a part, sometimes, where he isn't stronger and slicker than all the villains combined? We have observed in our short life That virtue does not always triumph.

This is, we believe, the first six-reel feature that Charlie Ghaplin ever has made, though we have missed ao much in pictures during the laat year that we hesitate to say that this or that is true, If it is true that the perfect picture ia ono without titles, then "The Kid" is nearly perfect, for it is told almost entirely ln pictures. Personally, we like titles, and it is seldom the quan tity but the quality of titles that we object to. "The Kid" is a vaatly entertaining picture, but there are some things in it which, we believe, were better left unsaid. Why is it that Chaplin, who is really an idealist, always has touches of vulgarlty in his pictures? In this case we have not the courage TakesNewYork By Storm!!

ORIGINAL CAST. of our convictions, for the things which seemed to us to detract from the'hu? mor brought roers of laugbter from all of those ubout us. The picture has a peculiar blnck und white quality,which we used to notice in the- old pictures of six or eight yeara ago, but we do not know enough about such things to know whether it is caused by the pho tography or tho lighting. However, you don't stop to think much about such things as photography wncn you ,'tro watching a Chaiiic Chuplin pict? ure. and perhaps the fact that uThe Klil" has lain so many months on the shelf has something to do with it. But we hope that Edna Purviance has not. been putting on flesh eve;' since the lilming of the picture. We had no idea until wc looked at the program tnat it waa tha who plays the girl ln tho picture. 8K0 ;s quite changed from thc Edna o? ?? *?w years ago, who was the ministering angcl of the Chaplin comedies. Oh, that too solid flesh! There r.eems to be a sort of epidemic in the film world. Jack Coogan is the child who plays Lhe title role, and he threalons to be another Chaplin. He is marvellous. There ia no doubt about that. He is abandoned by Miss Purviance -nd adopted by Charlie. When he gets to be five years old he and his foster father go in tho window glass business together. He goes around and throws stonea through people'a windows and father follows up the trail and gets the job of mer.ding them. It is a lucrative business until the cop intcrferes. The funniest thing in tho picture, we think, is Charlie's dream of heaven. We should like to have been present at the nlming. If "The Kid" is the best of the Chaplin pictures ft is only be? cause it is the longest. Wc feel that it would be forgetting "Shoulder Arms" to say that he has never done anytt.mg so good before.
