"There are many important problems eon-
fronting the music men just as there are for
any other man in the business world, and what
better place is there for such discussions than
right here in our association. We have before
us at the present time a topic of world-wide
interest, which is' of vital concern to all of us,
and this is the radio. The radio is in the minds
of over one hundred million people in this
country alone. If you have any ideas regarding
the radio and ibs effect upon the music business,
come to the association meetings and discuss
them with us. If you haven't any ideas to offer
then take advantage of the ideas of others.
Other topics will be offered for discussion.
Ideas will be presented that will be of assistance
to you in your every day business life."
