Joins New
Tuners Society
The New York Piano Technicians and
Tuners Association has become a mem-
ber of the American Society of Piano
Tuner-Technicians. The Piano Tuners As-
sociation of Illinois was the first organi-
zation to become affiliated with that or-
ganization which according to Dr. Wil-
liam Braid t White, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee comes into the field as
a trade association which desires to be
recognized by the National Piano Manu-
facturers Association and the National As-
sociation of Music Merchants with the idea
of adopting a policy of cooperation with
the manufacturers and the dealers to build
up the service end of the industry.
Dr. White also states that the matter ol
joining the organization is now up before
the local associations in Boston, Mass.,
Newark, N. I., and Philadelphia, Pa., and
that a Wisconsin Association will be or-
ganized with headquarters in Milwaukee,
which will also become affiliated with the
American Society.
