Diplomats Doubt Success
Monarch Hopes To Bridge Difficulties Between England, Italy
Cotyright, 1935. ky United Press.
PARIS, Jan. l—(lTJ>>—Leopold III, tragic young king of the Belgians, will attempt the hazardous role of Italo-Ethiopian peacemaker which cost Sir Samuel Hoare of England his foreign ministry and shook the prestige of Premier Pierre Laval of France, the United Press learned tonight.
Rumors current in European diplomatic quarters for several weeks that Leopold was endeavoring to bridge Anglo-Italian differences were based upon fact. It now Is possible to reveal details of the 34-year-old king’s efforts—which if successful will make him leading candidate for the Nobel peace prize.
Success Is Doubtful
High French officials doubt that Leopold will succeed any better than Hoare and LavaL They believe he may succeed in improving relations between Great Britan and Italy through their royal houses, but doubt if he can discover a peace formula acceptable to Italy, Ethiopia and pro-league of nations opinion in Europe.
The king, who since February, 1934, haw lost his father, King Albert, in a mountain climbing accident, and his wife, beautiful Princess Astrld, In an automobile crash, has been active for several weeks. Belgium, it was ascertained, is the “small European power, neither France nor Britan" which the Italian press has been forecasting would make early peace overtures.
Visit* King George
Leopold visited King George at Buckingham palace before Sis Samuel Hoare’s ill-starred visit to Paris to draw up the abortive Franco-British proposals on the week-end of Dec. 7-8. It is known now that he painted a black picture of the futuret if the war were not ended soon, and carried a personal message to the royal family of England from the House of Savoy of Italy.
He is believed to have asserted that there was danger of some headstrong act of retaliation against League of Nations sanctionists by Italy which might risk Rollapse of the royal family. Leopold is interested in sustaining the Italian royal house his sister, the Princess of Piedmont, is ln line to mount the throne before long.
Trojan Bureau Issues Survey
That there are lines of business which could expand their activities by increasing distribution efforts among groups not directly appealed to at present, but which might become important parts of the market, was revealed by the results of a recent market survey covering the Los Angeles metropolitan area, as compiled by the Bureau of Business Research, University of Southern California, and published in the last issue of the Southern California, Business Review.
Personal interview with 10,145 people formed the basis of the survey, Dr. Thurston II. Ross, director of the bureau, announced.
Fraternity Presents Symphony

When Arnold Schoenberg stepped down from the conductor’s stand, bowed finally to a clamoring audience and to the men of the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra, and left the stage of Bovard autitorium last Friday evening, another chapter in that book which has recorded historical first nights for Beethoven in Vienna, for Wagner at Bayreuth, for Cesar Franck at the Paris conservatory, was closed.
Schoenberg’s Kammersinfonie or chamber symphony, rearranged for full orchestra, which attracted the audience and finally won its unrestrained applause was performed for the first time. Its new arrangement proved in a sense to be a complete recreation and the reponse with which it was received may be considered by Schoenberg as more evidence of his growing popularity and the lessening of the hostility with which his music has always been met.
The occasion of the concert was the opening session of the western province convention of Phi Mu Al-pha-Sinfonia, national honorary and professional music fraternity. Alpha Epsilon, the L06 Angeles chapter of the organization, was host to the group and presented the
orchestra in the concert by Schoenberg.
Preceding the symphony program which also included the “Suite for Strings”, and the “Verklaerte Nacht” or “Radiant Night’ music, a dinner was given in the Foyer of Town and Gown with over one hundred musicians and civic leaders in attendance. Dr. R. B. von KleinSmid as master of ceremonies welcomed the membership of Pro-musica and other musical organizations in attendance and introduced honored guests including Mrs. Leiland Atherton Irish, manager of the orchestra, and prominent in Los Angeles social life; Mrs. Philip Zobelein, president of Pro-musica; and Max Swarthout, director of the S. C. School of music. Richard Huddleston, president of the Trojan chapter, introduced Dr. von KleinSmid. Jack Golay was general chairman of the banquet and convention.
The Phi Mu Alpha convention took place op Saturday and Sunday with business sessions, visits to points of interest in the city, and an initiation Sunday with Arnold Schoapberg and Supervisor of Music Curtis, Los Angeles city schools, becoming honorary members.

Newsmen Trail Col. Lindbergh
Famed Flyer Seeks Rest, Protection for Son, Wife, Himself
Copyright, 1935, by United Press.
LIVERPOOL. Jan. 1—0IE>—British newspapermen informed Col. Charles A. Lindbergh today that “the war ls on,” and threatened to follow him all over England unless he consents to a personal interview explaining why he left the United States.
Lindbergh refused, and tonight he and his family, who thought they were going to find privacy in the British Isles, were in a virtual state of sfcige in their Adelphi hotel suite. Little Jon played with toys on the floor of the living room, and not even a maid was admitted to take care of him.
The Lindberghs slept until 10 ajn. had breakfast in their rooms and the flier turned his attention to the question of how to pacify the Brit-tish press, whose members are becoming increasingly hostile.
First, he issued this statement:
“We have come here for peace, quiet and a restful time. We are perfectly fit and well and the three of us enjoyed a good voyage. We are greatly pleased with the courtesy extended to us by the British people.”
That failed to satisfy British newspapermen, and Robert Gregory of the London banking firm of Morgan, Grenfell and Co., consented to be intermediary in an indirect interview. After conferring with Lindbergh, Gregory said the flier told him he had brought his family to England because of the prevalence of kidnapings and crime in the United States.

Mussatti’s Volume Praised by Critics
“Constitutionalism,” written by James Mussatti, graduate of the University of Southern California and a member of the faculty in constitutional history, a book dealing with the origin of liberty under the j American document, has received national mention since its recent release.
Arthur Brisbane topped his December 13 “Today” by saying of Mussatti’s volume: “no matter how well one may think he knows the Constitution, its value, and power, he will do well to read it.”
The New York Times, in its No- j vember 10 book review section, gave over 12 inches of space to the review of the book, saying “the work is well adapted to the needs of the average reader, since it throws a flood of light on the background out of which the Constitution was bom , . . lt illuminates in a way that has not been done before its birth, significance, and the deep and ancient roots from which it sprang.”
The book Is published by Richard Blank Cox, and is available at the University Book store
At present Mussatti is executive secretary of the California Taxpayers’ association, residing in Glendale.

Under the brUliant leadership of Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid, president of the university, noted edu« cators, publicists, students of international relations, and representatives of foreign governments at* tended the 13ih assembly of th« aruual Institute of World Affairs.
Never in the history of the institute did so many significant problems challenge analytical ' hough! as those which faced the 1935 sessions, held December 14 to 20 on the Trojan campus, at Pasadena, and in Riverside, under the sponsorship of the Los Angeles University of International Relations.
Miller Lauded
Highlight of the seven-day conference was the glowing tribute paid to Frank A. Miller, late master of the Riverside Mission inn, as an apostle of world peace.
Dr. von KleinSmid, in part, eulogized:
“From the moment when seriously there was considered a habitat for the Institute of World Affain, one great mind worked with controlling influence with all of ths officers and committees, arranged among them for the perpetuity of that type of organization whicll would keep ever before the mind* and deep hidden within the hearts of the folk of this Southland, tha idealism of world peace.
Institute Founder
“Mr. Frank A. Miller might well be called the founder of the Institute; and as we think of the fad that this is the first session of the Institute held in Riverside in lt successive years when he has not been with us in the flesh. weU may we pause a moment to express ou? lasting obligation.”
Unique in that it takes no stand on any question of world importance and passes no resolutions, the institute seeks to accomplish its work by making available to college instructors, teachers, and publishers, information which they may pass-on to students and readers.
Creating a precedent, a pre-smi sion dinner was held on the S. C.j campus. B. C. Forbes, noted eco-i nomist, publisher, and syndicate writer, was honored with a Doctor of Literature degree which was conferred upon him by Dr. von KleinSmld.
Dr. Forbes predicted an unprecedented diffusion of national prosperity, and the nomination of Gov-
