The members of the National Association of Musi-
cal Instrument and Accessories Manufacturers held
their spring meeting at the Greenbriar Hotel, White
Sulphur Springs, W. Va., on March 9 and 10. The
following members were present:
President Walter M. Gotsch, Walter M. Gotsch Co.;
Mr. Bjorkman, Armour & Company; D. L. Day,
Bacon Banjo Co.; L. A. Elkington, L. A. Elkington;
J. P. Grant, Wm. L. Lange; Walter Grover, A. D.
Grover & Son; F. R. Johnson, Globe Music Co.; Jay
Kraus, Harmony Co.; H. Kuhrmeyer, Stromberg-
Voisinet Co.; H. C. Lomb, Waverly Musical Products
Co.; H. H. Slingerland, Slingerland Banjo Co.
The fretted instrument promotion plan of the Na-
tional Bureau for the Advancement of Music was
finally adopted, following the approval of both the
Eastern and Western associations. This is the plan
looking toward the organization of fretted instrument
orchestras in industrial plants, summer camps and
recreational centers. A special committee is planned
for the standardization program, which will endeavor
to increase the interest in that activity. The standard
approved label is already being attached by a good
many members to their products, but the new stand-
ards committee will work toward the adoption of the
standards by the entire membership. Names of the
committee members will be announced later. The
guitar is the next instrument to be standardized and
a complete list of the specifications will be ready
before the convention.
In accordance with the action of the board of
directors of the Music Industries Chamber of Com-
merce, it was decided that members making applica-
tion for membership after March 1 would not be
permitted to exhibit at the convention. This action
will help to restrict the exhibition privilege to mem-
bers who are actively carrying on the work of the
association year after year. Credit matters were
discussed.
The meetings were held on Friday morning and
Friday evening, while the afternoon of Friday and
all of Saturday were used for golfing, walking, swim-
ming and horseback riding. A golf tournament was
played on Saturday morning.
