From a political standpoint, the Republicans think that they can organize the power of vested interests that are hurt by foreign competition and gain strength enough to lick Hull and his program and perhaps also the Democratic party next year.

To export their over-abundant farm products, the United States must import more, and many farmers understand this fact very clearly...
This evening in Agassiz Theatre at Radcliffe Mr. Elmer Schocttle, pianist, and members of the Longy School faculty and the Boston Symphony Orchestra will present an extraordinary program of chamber music.

...second work on the program is from the colorful pre-war period. Florent Schmitt's Lied and Scherzo has undergone two transformations since its original conception as a double wind quintet. The composer transcribed it both for piano and violoncello and for piano and horn. It is in the latter arrangement that it will be played tonight with Willem Valkenier of the Boston Symphony as hornist. A quartet composed of Mr. Glazer, Mr. Lauga, Mr. Chardon, and Mr. Schoettle will close the program with the first Boston performance of Paul Hindemith's new Quartet for Clarinet, Violin, Violoncello, and Piano...

Nikolai Malko, a Russian who has been active in Russia and the Scandinavian countries as a conductor and teacher, will conduct the orchestra in a rather unusual program consisting of Rossini's Overture to "la Gazza Ladra," the First Symphony of Shostakovitch, Max Reger's Variations on a Theme of Mozart, and Tchaikovsky's "Capriccio Italien." The inclusion of both the Rossini and the Tchaikovsky makes the program as a whole rather light. We are not acquainted with the Reger composition, but we hope...
...would like to call your attention again to the concert tonight at Agassiz Theatre. This is the type of free concert in which the artist is completely independent in his choice of program and style of performance, and opportunities for hearing musicians of such quality play in this way ought not to be missed...
