Mr. Kastner has also been a professor at the Royal Academy of Music and at the Guild Hall School of Music in London. Bushwk-k Conservatory.

The management of the Bushwick Conservatory takes pleasure in announcing that a new department has been added to the school, which undoubtedly will appeal to the mothers of the community who desire to see their children acquire grace and poise. The director fully appreciates the admirable record made by the conservatory in all its departments in the past and is determined that its work during the coming year shall mark even greater progress if possible, than heretofore. A fine company of artists as experienced teachers are prepared to give their best efforts to the cultivation of the highest arts. Mrs. PerfieUl to Lecture Here.

If preferential shipments are ordered already, with paralyzing effect, what may we expect within the next year or two if the war continues and we must not fail to prepare for Its duration for at least that long? Reasons for the Car Shortage. "You will also ask, Why the car shortage? Here are some of the reasons: foreign trade has Increased 100 per domestic trade bas increased 60 per great numbers of cars are used transferring parts and material before assembling or manufacturing begins; the extraordinary high cost and scarcity of steel and materials and labor; instead of 500.

000 emigrants to draw from for labor, there has been but few; we have been and are now supplying foreign nations with cars; we are building 400 miles of railroad in France and equipping it with cars and locomotives; 8,997 freight cars are under order for France, and 914 locomotives are to go to the same place, to be used with our Army. "The president of one of our large railroads penetrating the coal fields of the Middle West wrote me this week that a hundred million dollars, the amount I have asked the Government to use, would build a hundred thousand freight cars. I think, under the speeding-up process, it will cost perhaps 1,500 per car, which would give us 66,000 cars. This would not near equal the present demand. "This same railroad president writes further: 'It will be a great help to the general situation to have these cars, and with the Government going in the market for 4 per cent, money, it is pretty hard for the railroads to get sufficient funds with which to expand.

Then, too, the railroads are deferred somewhat in the purchase of new equipment, by reason of the high prices of materials, which would not influence the Government so much. 'This might be handled by the Government undertaking to purchase the equipment bonds put out by the railroads, allowing the railroads themselves to make the purchase of the equipment and giving the Government some control over the equipment until the debt is paid off. This would avoid the creation of an agency which the Government would have to have if it owned- the equipment. While the scheme is necessarily a large one and would require much more careful consideration than I have been able to give, I do it would be helpful not only to the railroads but to the general situation, and I am sure the railroads will be glad to use the equip, ment on any fair basis. It is certain to help the Indiana situation to have this number of new cars on the railroads.

As it is now, our cars get away from us and are used for other purposes than hauling coal, so whether the new cars find their way to the coal fields or not, their presence will certainly benefit the general Says V. S. Can Build Freight Cars. "Some one will say. If these nine car-manufacturing plants cannot get the materials and labor to increase their output, how do you expect the Government to do so? How is the Government building ships? Where does it get its materials and men to build them with? Uncle Sam can build the cars or cause them to be built, and, in my judgment, it is the only way we will get them.

The management also announces a series of six symphony concerts for young people at Carnegie Hall, and a new serifs of four symphony concerts for children on Saturday mornings at Aeolian Hall. There will also be a series of five afternoon symphony concerts in the Brooklyn Academy of Music and three winter tours; one in November, one in January and one in February. William Carl's Plans.

William C. Carl has returned to New York with a portfolio full of novelties and new works ready for the coming season. During the summer holiday he has been actively engaged in preparing his repertoire for the winter and in editing a large number of pieces for organ. Dr. Carl has also edited a charming "Ave Maria" for mixed voices, by Joseph Bonnet.

The motet has been sung with great success in Paris and will undoubtedly be largely used in this country. There will be two editions, one with the Latin and the other with the English text. Dr. Carl had edited the Bell Symphony by Henry Purcell and the Theme, Variations and Finale in A flat by Louis Thiele. The new symphony fop organ by Louis Vierne.

organist of Notre Dame, Taris, and dedicated to him, has been received, also a manuscript sonata by J. Victor Bergquist and a melody by Francis L. York, each with a dedication.

GREEN, Registrar, "We must win this war at all costs," said Representative Bland of Indiana in the House a few days ago, urging the passage of his bill authorizing the President to acquire or construct freight cars for the transportation of coal and other products and commodities. "The railroads cannot and will not build these extra freight cars which we so sorely need.

The shipbuilder could not or would not build ships as fast as we needed them. Did you wait and twirl your thumbs? No; you went into the shipbuilding business and I want to know why you do not handle this question in the same way?" Representative Bland submitted to the House some astonishing facts gathered in a close study of the con-; ditions of the nation as affecting the' mining Interests of his State, saying that they were doubtless no different in other mining fields. "The mills and shops and furnaces and factories of this nation are being mobilized to the most tremendous output of products necessary to the successful conduct of the war that the world has ever known. All their success in this direction is wholly dependent upon having a sufficient supply of coal at hand to run the plants. You will recall that I asked you last May to exempt from the draft the man who digs the coal, and that I cited you the example of England who was sending her Welsh coal miners back home from the front so as to furnish the coal necessary for her industries, and navy.

I do not know what we are going to do for miners In the coal fields, but they will have to be found somewhere if we get enough coal to supply the nation's unusual needs. But for the present I found the most pressing need of the mining industry was for railroad cars to haul the coal. I found some of the largest mines, employing hundreds of men, working a little more than one-half time on account of car shortage an enromous and very unfortunate economic waste that must not continue if we are to do our best in this struggle. Tou who read the Administration organ called the Official Bulletin this morning no doubt noticed that there Is talk of turning oft the electric and gas street lights of our Cities at night in order to save coal. Are we, this great, ricn nation, going to permit the lack of freight cars to hamper our proper and speedy mobilization of our great industries? Sees Serious Handicap to Government in Car Shortage.

'Yet when I dig into the facts and figures of the case I find no wen-aimad attempt on the part of those in charge is being made to relieve this astounding condition that must even tually seriously nanaicap our huukj to make the most of our opportunities. Let me give you some figures. "In 1915 we had in the United States 2,356,338 freight cars of all kinds, or 9.48 cars to the mile of railroad, made up as follows: "Box cars, 1,041,033, or 4.042 per mile. "Flat cars, 145,192, or 0.o64 per mile. "Stock cars, 86,312, or.

0.335 per mile. "Coal cars, 900,780, or 3.497 per mile. "Tank cars, 9,513. or .037 per mile. "Refrigerator cars, 62,448, or 0.204 per mile.

"Caboose and other freight cars of all kinds, about 16,934. "Company service cars, 95,984, or 0.372 per mile. "It is now claimed by those most familiar with the situation that we probably have in service something like two and a half million freight cars. Remember, these are the cars available for normal conditions. "There are only nine shops of con sequence turning out freight cars.

They say that their full capacity is, in round figures, cars per year; and they also say and we have a right to rely on the information given, when given under the circumstances that these, facts were given that at present they are turning out probably a little less than 50 per cent, of their capacity, or less than 150,000 cars a year. The railroads themselves turn out at full capacity about 20,000 cars per year. The best figure obtainable is that this year's output of freight cars will bo from 135,000 to 160,000 cars. I am informed that it is a common saying among well-posted car men that it requires cars yearly to take the place of those being put out of commission. Now, if our available yearly output Is less than 150,000, and if we junk per year, where are we getting to? Why, Mr.

to Turn Out Trained Men For Air, Army and Navy Service i.i DrooKiyn FRANKLIN being House Bill 4919, authorizes the President, through the Interstate Commerce Commission or other person of persons, as he sees fit, subject to his approval, to acquire or construct out of the appropriation provided for in the bill of $100, 000,000, freight cars to be sold to the railroad companies on such Uerms as he thinks proper. "Now, Mr. Chairman, we know that the car shortage is already alarming, and must necessarily get more so in the future. The railroads and car factories can give us no hope, and they fear a greater shortage of new cars in the immediate future. Preferential shipment orders will only change the location of the distress and will not aid materially in moving our enormous amount of freight, which is steadily increasing and which must increase as the war progresses.

"What are we to do, Mr. Chairman sit here until this certain condition further paralyzes our usefulness, or shall we act upon the question now while there is time? I am not here advocating this bill for the benefit of the railroads, because they should be made to pay full value, on proper terms, for these cars. No one has ever accused me of being influenced against my better judgment by a railroad company. As the author of the 2-cent-fare law in Indiana I probably received my share of criticism from the railroad fellows. This is an ex traordinary condition, and it is for the welfare of my country at war that prompts me to speak at this time.

It is no time to theorize about. Govern ment ownership. This proposition is not a proposal for Government owner ship, because, I only propose that we build and acquire for the purpose of disposal that we build to meet a condition that is truly alarming. I hope, gentlemen, that, you will carefully weigh this proposition." schools for the United States Shipping Board. It was the suggestion of an alumnus of the M.

I. Hchry Howard, that schools to supply the need ed officers for the coming merchant marine would be necessary, and the task of looking out for them was promptly assigned to him. He in turn went to his old professors and Dean A. E. Burton agreed to organize the school for deck officers, and Trofes-sor E.

Miller, head of the de partment of mechanical engineering, is looking after, those for engine room officers. Professor Burtom has started some thirty schools in the different parts of the country for making deck officers out of good, experienced sailor-man material, and two of these schools are now under way at Tech. When these men graduate there will have been four such schools of about thirty-five men each sent out from Cambridge, and a goodly number of the graduates are already daring Ihe German submarines in trans-Atlantic trade. The schools for marine engineers demand the equipment of a mechanical laboratory and Professor Miller has, therefore, established only eight such schools. The second set in the Boston school is now about ready to graduate into responsible positions and the number that can be cared for in one school is about thirty-five.

Taken by and- large the Institute will open with somewhere about eight hundred students, in addition to the regular registration. This, it Is expected, will be somewhat smaller than usual, although the freshman entries will be large and the sophomores will return in about the usual numbers. There has been such a demand for men technically trained that a goodly number of the men of the upper classes have gone Into military or allied industrial work, and there will be losses here. The regular registration Is about two thousand. The Tech campus will be very military in its aspects the coming years.
