ROYALTIESJ^OR RADIO
Publishers Seeking Royalty Payments for Songs
Used by Radio Concerns
At a recent meeting the American Society of
Authors, Composers and Publishers adopted a
resolution prohibiting radio broadcasting stations
from sending out copyrighted music belonging
to members of the society without the payment
of a performing license fee.
It is said that there are over 200 broadcasting
stations in the United States. Most of these are
controlled by three very large companies and
these latter have expressed a willingness to pay
the society an equitable fee for the rights of per-
forming copyrighted musical compositions.
No specific plan has yet been arranged to set
royalty figures, etc., and it is thought that it
will take a short time to work out a simple plan.
It might be possible to give certain broadcasting
companies exclusive right to send out radio con-
certs of copyrighted music over a certain terri-
tory. Other ideas are under discussion.

C. C CHURCH AND COMPANY
HAKTFORD, CONNECTICUT
Hartford—New York—London—Paris—Sydney
PORTLAND, ORE., April 29.—Sam Fox display
racks have been installed on the counters of the
sheet music department of the McDougall-Conn
Music Co. and give an added attractiveness to
the music displayed on the counters by Maud
McCauley, the manager, who is greatly pleased
with them and says they are a great help in pre-
senting the attractive publications to her pa-
trons and expects sales to be increased thereby.
Among the numbers in popular demand here
are "Just Like Your Eyes," "June Breezes,"
"Dancing Nymphs," "Blue Bells," "A Garden
Dance," "I Love You More," "Dancing Leaves,"
"A Mother's Crown," "Scented Violets," "At
Sunset" and "Come, for It's June."
Muriel Simpson has joined the force of Louis
Mack, sheet music dealer in the Bush & Lane
Piano Co.'s store. Miss Simpson was formerly
with the Portland Remick Song Shop.
Word has been received here from the Carl
Fisher Publishing Co. that they are starting a
publicity campaign and that they are featuring
their five best songs, including "I Meant to Do
My Work To-day," by Dent Mowrey, one of
Portland's foremost composers. The Fishers
have published many of Mr. Mowrey's latest
songs, which are in great demand in this city.
AMERICAN BAND IN LONDON
New York Havana Band Meeting With Great
Success at Savoy Hotel
The New York Havana Band, now playing at
the Savoy Hotel in London, under the direction
ol Bert Ralton, seemingly is setting a pace in
that country for novel renditions. It lias been
playing for many months at the Savoy and its
popularity now is undisputed. Indeed, other or-
ganizations in England, and even on the Con-
tinent, are following the style set bjj it.
Of particular note regarding this organization
is the fact that every member is not only an
artist with his own instrument, but is considered
an accomplished musician in general. The or-
chestra has had several offers to appear in other
places, but, owing to the success at the Savoy
Hotel and the hope of the management to have
it continue, it is not likely it will appear in other
circles for some time to come.

"BABBLING BROOK" A HIT
Kendis & Brockman Number Proving
Popular—Melody Type of Song
Very
James Kendis and James Brockman, of the
Kendis & Brockman Music Co., known in trade
circles as the "James Boys," recently issued a
new ballad, entitled "Babbling Brook." The
number is of the melody type, now seemingly
returning to popularity. The orchestras, par-
ticularly those who want to get away from the
jazz type of numbers, have shown favor to this
new offering.
Kendis & Brockman have a long list of suc-
cesses to their credit, including "Feather Your
Nest" and "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles.'
"Babbling Brook" continues their high standard
of song contributions. It is of the type that
should be popular over a period of many months
to come.
O'HARA WITH SAM FOX
Geoffry O'Hara, who has several numbers in
