numbers which have passed the inspection of

tion of Broadcasters in the middle of April,
1923, much of this has been removed and it is
believed that the thorough working out of the
constructive program of the Association with
publishers will prove that their best interests
lie in dealing with broadcasters through the
National Association of Broadcasters and hav-
ing their works systematically and regularly put
over the air by high-power stations, with their
radio radius of many miles, and blanketing the
entire United States."

ROGER SALABERT VISITS NEW YORK
"BESIDE A BABBLING BROOK" WEEK
Comes to Make Arrangements for the Recip-
rocal Collection of Royalties With American
Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers
Jerome H. Remick & Co. Arranging National
Drive of Special Week on This Number
Roger Salabert, of the French music publish-
ing firm of Francois Salabert, the most impor-
tant publishing firm in Paris, is a visitor in New
York, for the purpose of negotiating arrange-
ments with the American Society of Composers,
Authors and Publishers, whereby the French
society will reciprocally handle American com-
positions. It is said the French organization
collects music royalties of over 7,000,000 francs
a year, which is over $1,025,000 at the present
rate of exchange. American publishers, un-
doubtedly, need representation in France. At
present the society there is practically a closed
corporation and the success of the present ne-
gotiations should prove favorable.
"MEMORY'S GARDEN" NEW BALLAD
J. W. Jenkins Sons Music Co. Foresees Big
Future for Its Latest Publication
Jerome H. Remick & Co., who for some weeks
have had a national campaign on the song "Beside
a Babbling Brook," are arranging an increased
publicity drive on the number, which will in-
clude the celebration of a "Babbling Brook
Week," commencing July 2. Vaudeville per-
formers who are programming the number will
make a special feature of it during the week in
question. Dance orchestras everywhere will play
it and theatre and motion picture houses will
also include it on their programs. The trade,
undoubtedly, will co-operate in giving special
space to title pages and other display material
in its stores.
"Beside a Babbling Brook" is one of a series
of songs issued by Remick this Spring which
have reached large popularity. "Barney Google,"
the novelty song of the catalog, has had a par-
ticularly large sale. "Babbling Brook," however,
was hailed as one of the best ballads issued in
some time. It has been fortunate in being given
special stage settings and in other ways has
been made an unusual feature in vaudeville. The
result should be that the coming week's cele-
bration should bring the number to the height
of its popularity and create thousands of addi-
tional sales for it in sheet music form, as well
as add considerably to the sales of rolls and
records of the number.
"Memory's Garden" is the title of a ballad
recently added to the catalog of J. W. Jenkins
Sons Music Co., Kansas City, Mo. The sales
and professional departments of the music pub-
lishing division of the Jenkins organization look
forward to this latest addition to the catalog
as being the best piece of property published
in some years. Preliminary arrangements for
giving the number publicity by the aid of bands
and orchestras are already under way and
