For the American monopoly on what the world sings and whistles is being broken and American songwriters are showing precious little concern. . "Imagine," complained Jack Kapp, head of Decca Records, "what would have happened if Stephen Foster were alive today. Why, If he heard delivery boys singing and whistling foreign tunes he'd make his keyboard smoke turning out more "Suwa- nee Rivers and Old Kentucky Homes.' ; , "But some of the great com mercial writers who swept the musical world for us from 1926 on prefer to spend their time golf ing in Florida or traveling or do ing practically anything except composing songs. Not so the British and the French and the Swiss and the Germans. They're hungry and they're writing. Our boys are relaxing on their royal ties. "Now don't imagine I want us to return to the days of Foster when song writers wrote master pieces and starved. But surely fiancial security doesn't mean one ought to give up creative work. I should think that with eating money assured, our writers would turn out even greater songs." Kapw, a unique figure who stands like a mountain of logic in an illogical business, admitted that he 'was partly to blame for the situation he deplores, ten years ago his company grossed $500,000. Now it is in the $40,- 000,000 a year class. A good deal of that, has gone into the royal ties which enabled hit creators to retire early.

S. district attorney, said Ingram would be charged, also, with sending lewd letters through the mail. The actor was expected to plead innocent to both counts. In that case his trial will be set for April 11, Luther said. Janette Ann Hughes, the white teen-ager who allegedly' flew to New York twice to meet Ingram in hotel rooms, will come here to testify if the actor pleads inno cent.' Miss Hughes is now at the industrial school for girls at Be loir, Kan. '... FISHING BARGAIN OFFERED Cheyenne, Wyo.
