BRIAND BOOSTED FOR PRESIDENCY OVER OWN VETO Office an Honor, but Carries With It Oblivion in France. Bu United Press PARIS, May 16.—Aristide Briand peace-maker of Europe, may be the dark-horse candidate for ihe presidency of France at the election in May, 1931, despite his own opposition. Election to the presidency is an honor, but it carries with it passage into political oblivion and Briand feels that he is not yet ready for eclipse. The day is now exactly a year away when, in accordance v:lth Frances constitution, the chamber of deputies and senate will be transferred to the palace of former kings at Versailles for a day, there to select an occupant for the presidential palace, the Elysee, for the next seven years. Gaston Doumergue, affable southerner, is not a candidate to succeed nitnself. He feels that seven years

of political isolation are enough. Likewise, former president and many times Premier Raymond Poincare has let It be known that under no consideration will he be a candidate. Doumergue, who was elected to the Elysee without having solicited the favor, is anxious to retire to his farms of the sunny south. He has made it known that he will refuse if re-elected, and will not even accept a mandate to the chamber or senate. He hopes to travel to make up for the seven years of isolation, almost as severe as in a monastery. With the two former presidents out of the way, the path is open to Briand, but there is more glory in appearing as foreign minister of Prance at London and other capitals of Europe than in pressing electric buttons to inaugurate cheese fairs from the Elysee. For the same reason, Premier Andre Tardieu will not even think of running for office. His political star is still rising and he has many other ambitions than to cut himself off from the political world for seven years. The election takes place May 13, next year, and the winner jnust find more than 400 supporters among the parliamentarians.

Famous Radio Conductor Was * Boys ’ Orchestra Leader at 10

Thi* is the second of two articles on Freddie Rich and Howard Barlow, two famous radio orchestra leaders, the first of which Care an interesting Insight into the career of Rich. Saturday’s article, continuing a fascinating series on notables of the radio world, will tell the story of Countess Albani, Spanish headliner of the NBC. By ISRAEL KLEIN XEA Service Writer OUITE a contrast to Freddie Rich, famous orchestra leader, about whom I wrote yesterday, is Howard Barlow, director of most of the symphonic programs on the Columbia system, composer of the network’s famous signature number, originator of the Cathedral hour, director of the Philco and other operatic hours. The contrast runs from birth. Rich, like Barlow, has composed several important pieces, and conducts various popular programs, but of quite different type. Barlow is a native of a tiny town in southern Ohio. While his parents moved about Ohio and southern Illinois, he picked up knowledge of the piano, the violin, the trumpet, and other instruments. “I was ten years old, I remember,” he says, ‘‘and was leading the

boys’ orchestra in the Sunday school at Mt. Carmel, 111., when the sexton gave me an old cracked cello he had found somewhere. Couldn’t Even Pronounce It “So little did I know about this instrument that I even pronounced it ‘sello.’ But I glued it up, got a set of new strings from a mail order house in Chicago, marked the frets on a piece of paper and pasted this on the neck under the strings to guide my fingers. Then I proceeds 1 to learn the instrument. “In two weeks I played Wagner’s ‘Evening Star’ from ‘Tannhauser, as a solo in the church offertory service.” The incident furnishes an idea of the musical genius of Howard Barlow. He picked up a good training on many other instruments, but his great desire was to conduct an orchestra. Taught by Whiteman Sr. Daddy Whiteman, Paul Whiteman’s father, taught him that in Denver, when the boy was 16. Ever since then, nearly twenty years ago, he has conducted orchestras, led

choirs, organized glee clubs and even staged various performances. “I like to lead an orchestra,” he says, his soft blue eyes shining brightly. “I like an audience in the studio, and I like to appear in evening clothes and have my men dress that way also. This formality has a wonderful psychological effect on them. They seem to feel better the dignified, symphonic music they are playing. “I am always restrained, dignified before my men. They are always in my view, in fact I never look at a score while we are playing, having memorized it beforehand. Asa result, they know I am watching them and am deeply interested and serious, and they can’t help but give their best. “Just as an actor plays on the emotions of his audience, I play on my men’s emotions. They are my instrument.” While Barlow attended college out west, he used to participate in several sports. Weighing not quite

130 pounds at the time, and hardly more now, slight of build and height, he became a fast tennis, hockey and baseball player, and he even played end on the freshman football team. Today, howevej, Barlow has dropped all sports activity. “On Saturday, when I have a day off,” he says, “my wife and I go out for a little drive, and I get my rest and recreation that way. My wife was Ann Winston, who played a part in ‘City Haul’ recently and* in several other Henry Miller productions. We’ve been married three years.” But, like Freddie Rich, Barlow spends most of his time in the studios, doing exactly what Rich does but in an entirely different way. Both love the work and wouldn’t give it up for any other kind, they say, and both believe radio is the greatest influence that ever came into the development of music.
