A bombshell that was not presented at the
meetings of the National Association of Sheet
Music Dealers last week appeared in the form of
a letter of which several of the popular pub-
lishers were recipients from the S. H. Kress &
Co. stores. This syndicate operates one store in
New York City and is quite active in Southern
territory.
The company operates over 100 stores altogeth-
er and declares that it has a lot of dead stock
on hand which it will be unable to dispose of
unless the retail price of the issues is re-
duced.
The letter requests a conference with the pub-
lishers for the purpose of giving consideration to
the return of ten-cent music which, according to
the majority of the popular publishers, is out of
the question.
Neither the legitimate sheet music dealer nor
the publisher of popular prints looks with favor
upon the return of ten-cent music and it is well
that the question was not presented to the Na-
tional Association of Sheet Music Dealers last
week as it would probably have taken several
columns of this paper to report the opinions, de-
nunciations, etc., of the dealers who attended
that gathering.
