Tho meeting was tn Han Francisco. Apparently u 1 1 broadcasters Imvo plenty of problems but tills year, being tho end of u five your license period, tho topflight prob lem discussed at tbo mooting wits music copyright. You might suy that what broadcasters do about the Btibject ot copyright is their own affair and of no interest to you. Hut If you won) to say that, vn ...,l,l lt U'l'uwr II lu iU. tlon that is us closo to nil of tlx us our living' room ruillo , set, Evoryono who listens to radio nnd nearly overyono does at least a little lias an Interest lu this buttle over music. Briefly hero is tho slory. Koine years ago u group of very smart men set out through an organiza tion of authors, - composers and . publishers, to control Ilio conv- , right ownership of all or nearly all of tho music ordinarily played in America. They were astound iiiRly successful. The copyright law was of great help for II pro- ' vldes' absolute ownership of a composition for a total period of 56 yours. Purchase of copyrights took care of tho past production bf tunes and membership in tho society provided for control of cur rently produced ami future tunes by good composers. Tim romulud- ' or of Ihe problem ot these clover organizers was to see that tho con- .ironed, music was loalnrod and becumn popular and that the tunes Touted by Ibclr member ship oT composers, and only lliose llllieH. U-ei-i, em-t-enl Iv iii,l t,,,i,u. lar. The organization referred to Is ordinarily known us ASCAP being tho initials for tbo lull lianio tbo Anioi-lcan Society or Composers, Authors tind Publish- A very clever speaker al tho 'convention of broadcasters sug gested that another Initial, the let- tor "O" should be added to the name making It ASCAl'O since ail concerned received some bene fits and Ihe organization group tn charge nt the copyright pool Is re ported to aliuro most generously. The, ASCAl'O bus been riding rough shod over Ihe hi-oadcasUng Industry as If did over Ihe movies until a powerful group of movie producers spent many million and bought a substantial amount of music copyrights. A row high lights of Ihe roughness of Ihe AS CAl'O shoes are these: For five years ending liecember III this ,year, ASCAl'O has collected five per cent of every dollar spent on radio advertising except from n tfew stations owned by powerful newspapers. Kven programs lhal . iise no music (except political 'talk!) ui'o taxed. For example , news broadcasts, baseball ami football games are laxed for the ,'pse or MUSIC! The total oollcr llon on Unit basis is around live .minimis annually. Having what they believed to be a monopoly .ASCAl'O recently announced thai this amount is to be DOIIBLIOD beginning January 1, l!Ml. No , Wonder tbo hroadcusters have- be come arouseo. rtnoiuer oone oi contention Is that tho copyright organization has never told the broadcasters Ihe names of till of tho lunos on which Ihey hold copy right ownership. Now Ihe radio men are going lo Represented by strike back. , They . have bought numerous small copyright pools. They hnve been grooming now composers. They have formed a fighting organization known Broadcast Music Incorporated (or BMI). Having gone so far they plan to go the whole route and on January 1 all of the threo major networks and most of the radio stutlons of the land will play no more ASCAl' music. Radio will plug and popularize music as al ways but the tunes will bo own ed by radio. This was the deci sion of tho mooting. And so, to go buck to the as sertion made at the beginning of this column, the music preforences of an entire nation will probably undergo a positive swing away from ASCAl' controlled tunes and to II.MI (radio) controlled tunes In tho very near futuro. Our curs will probably not be able to de tect tho difference. Editorials on New .

(Bulguiia seeks return ot the province of southern Dohruja, which she lost lo Rumania in 1018. Negotiations for snttlenieiil of the Ruiiiaiilan-Bulgarian con:' trovei'sy are now under way at Ihe prompting or (lerniany, which Is reported to have advised the Bucharest government to seek a speedy sclllclnclll.) The article said most of south ern Dohruja's people are Bulgars. Rumanian authorities were ac cused of "putting into operation oppressive machinery" and "or ganizing a military pri'.',nuu" which caused a great number or Bulgarian peasants to lice from the province.

Rose aud Johnny show up. - Chapter 32 Goodby to Sea Tide jonnuy ran a nervous hand , over, his sloek hair fill WP'lf uu, we u make out all right Rose and me. guess we re two or a kind, and she'll be a big help to me when 1 got my own band and my own club. If I ever do. But what wor ries me Is she don't get alimony any more and she don't made an twlnl lot -at tho club and already she's stewing around about clothes. Honest, Jan, I'm afraid I'll never make enough money to keop her satisfied." "Thon why (lid she marry you?" Jau demanded with asperity, an noyed and embarrassed ut John ny's confidences. Ills answer was blunt enough. "We were both a little tight. Oh," ho added hastily, seeing the shock in her eyes, "we were far from drunk, but we wouldn't have done it. at least not then, If we hadn't had several cocktails." 'If that Is true." June said angri ly, "you're pretty much of a cad to admit It to anybody!" There you go again with your Victorian, or whatever you call it, line." he accused. "Oh, I'm crazy about her,, all right, but I know darned well she'll never .stick by me." ,. "You might ho wrong. Any how, you're speaking of your wife and I don't llko your attitude." A stubborn, donuut expression wiped the usual bland look from Ills face. "Jan. you must be cither blind or stupid! What I'm trying to tell you is tho whole thing is a mistake. I thought 1 wanted so phistication and I've found out I don't. All the time I renlly want ed someone sweet and whole some and good llko you. I'm still in love with you. Jan. This Is Just Infatuation. Will you give mo a chalice? I'll divorce ltoso and start over again." "Not with me, you won't!" she snapped. "You're complete des picable, Johnny. Don't bother coming here again." She turned and ran to the kitchen, enor mously relieved when he did not follow. Yet upset us she was, she would have boon much more so if she had listened in on the con versation between Hose a n d Lanco upstairs. . "So that's how it happened,"! Hose finished, duplloittlng her hus band's story, but witli more finesse, to Lanco. She sat on the arm of his chair, a forlorn siren turned out in u blue flannel slack suit with a guy silk scarf tied over her black hair. Her gorgeous hazel eyes .brooded with resent munt. She raged Inwardly be cause all of her well-laid plana had misfired. Tho fact or her mar riage to Johnny effectively cut her off from opportunity. Too, she bad been irked und phpicd by Lance's calm acceptance of her marriage. She wanted admiration und consolation. Her vanity de manded it. So, thoughtlessly, seir ishly, she ogoin sought to uwaken a flame or desire in Lance. "I'm just sick about the whole mess. Lance, and 1 don't know quite where to turn or what to do. 1 thought you might advise me." 'Hoping and Praying' He said heavily, resenting the tact that sho could still move liltn, swav his emotions. "There isn't anything f could say lo you now. Hose. I'm leaving for New York tomorrow for a- oonsullatinn with Doctor Murray. If he can do anything about these legs of mine I'll be flying again, and I fly again I'll have plenty ot money. If bo can't do anything, well" "Then Pll bo hoping and pray ing for you," she whispered, put ting her soft, powdered cheek against his. "I cared for you so much. Lance, but I couldn't sec any way out for either of us. And Jan Insisted I upset you. She thought I should slay away from you. That's why I changed, why I tried tn make you believe I was bard and greedy and grasping. I'm not really. I want what most women want and what I've never had n chance to have: a husband I love, a home and children. John ny is .lust a . boy who's in love wllh bis music and hlmseir. II won't work out. Lance, it can't!" He felt his defenses, crumbling. Site was lovely, cxoiic, exciting. , r r l.,.- I,..!.. 4,1 !.-!

He lined his thin race and Kissed her lips hungrily. "I love you." be said in a low, tortured voice. "I thought I'd recovered Ironi you. but, I haven't." Neither or tiieui heard the door open, then close again, but Norma had seen nnd heard enough to hurry her to her room white-faced and stricken. "You fool." she said. "You poor, precious, idiotic fool!" Perkine a tissue from a drawer sho scrubbed at her rare, remov ing lipstick nnd rouge and most of the powder. With a stirf hair brush she - straightened out the waves In her hair and pinned II Into a severe roll, look orr her bright summer clothes and donned her sensible tweeds, add ed tlte rinishing touch of glasses. To Jan's, surprised Imniiry, she stated levelly: ' Tin getting back Into my schoolteacher role. Jan. My school opens in two weeks, you know-." "But I thought you were going to New York with Lance and nie?" Jau protested, bewildered. Norma, by determined effort, kept her voice calm. "It might mean losing my job here and hav ing lo wait until next semester for another school somewhere If I left now. No. Jan. 1 u. litv on here un til you come back. I'll look after I the house and the cat and you see, this is best?" , "No, 1 don't see It, still If it's what you want, Norma." Jau felt sure something had happened to disturb again the pleasant, tran quil ..relationship of Norma and Lance,. Her apprehension waB fur ther increased w lieu sho visited Lance after Rose and Johnny had gone and found him flushed and UU eUgtJ, OUl IIOMCUIMI1IUUI. " 1 , , h eiivo her wsh the re mark: . "Rosa Is calling for us in the morning. She offered to drive us to the railroad station lu town. Her car Is comfortable aud It'll save the bother of Frank going along to carry mo from the In terurbun Into a taxi and then on the train. Oil, .Ian, tho doctor has got to fix me up! I don't want to go on living If 1 can't walk!" Rose, Again ..Tears, misted her eyes.,. "I was fearful qf this," she murmured. "You promised, Lanco, you said it wouldn't make any difference " "You don't understand," ho told her; bitterly. "But I do understand," she thought, going to her own. room. It was Rose again. Oh, Lance de served better than this. She tloubted if Rose could gi' love to any man. And Norma must have seen or heard something. "I'd like to take a stick to that Rose!" Jan snapped. Then it oc curred to her that although she was, literally, her brother's keep er. ,he had no light to be, figura tively. Lance was nearly thirty one years old. Certainly it was his right to make his own choice, his own decisions, "But not at Normu's oxponso! And no mutter what 1 promised Norma, I'm going to tell Lance it's her money pro viding this chance for him!" In the morning Jan insisted Frank como with them to the train, determined . not to . lcavo Rose and Lance alono for even a moment. Ruth Crouln appeared at the station to assure them she had persuaded Mr. S0I10I, the store manager, to write Doctor Murray by air mail, asking that he soo Lance at his earliest convenience. Frank ensconced Lunce as com fortably as possible, in the. draw ing room compartment on the train, kissed Jan's cheek goodby, and handed her a heap of hastily selected magazines and a basket of fruit. "You look grand," Ritlh toid her, admiring the tailored suit with matching topcoat and perky suede hat she had chosen for her. The outfit, was a deep bluo nubby tweed and the hat and shoes were a tighter shade of blue. Jan, at Ruth's Insistence, bad had her hair shaped and waved by a mas ter beautician at Blalock's and tho result was not tho Jan of Sea Tide, but a new and superbly smart young person who, us Tol as . appearance was concerned, would hold her own with any one of New York's charmers. Hoso llngerod oil n moment, hoping Jan would leave her a moment with Lance, but Jan be gan to mpack and arrange their traveling things and exhibited no slightest Intention of leaving. Yet she could not help seeing the way Lance clung to Rose's slender hands, bordered as always, at the wrists, by jangling bracelets. Then the train began slowly to move and Rose had to go. After awhile, when the train rolled perkily through the city's outskirts, Lanca asked indifferent ly, "Why did Norma change her mind about going with us?" "Her school, I guess. She didn't want, to lose it." "Of course," he said, relieved. "You didn't tell 'me. but I know you must have .borrowed money I'roiu Frank or Ruth." She didn't . answer, b u I. lie seemed, in his abstraction, not to notice. "I won't tell him yet." she Ihnught. her Hps setting into a somewhat grim line.
