BUSY MR. WATKIN
In the September issue of "Dallas Life," published
at Dallas, Tex., appears a two-column article by
Robert M. Watkin under caption "Music and Indus-
try." We take the following clipping from the in-
troduction to Mr. Watkin's interesting story. He
says:
Music, with its well-known soothing, harmonizing
and stimulating influences, has a distinct and well-
defined place in industry. The establishment of musi-
cal activities in industrial plants and mercantile
houses is increasing because of the many advantages
and benefits it gives the employer and worker.
To sum up the value of music in industry:
From the viewpoint of the employer:
1. It increases production.
2. It enlarges the zone of agreement upon which
employer and employee can negotiate.
3. It cuts down the turnover.
From the viewpoint of the employee:
1. It breaks the monotony of the working day.
2. It gives a social interest and a chance for the
expression of individual talent.
3. It makes for better acquaintance and closer
friendships.
When New York's first Music 'Week was held, the
participation of industrial plants was sought. The
interests of that city's leading business houses were
secured to cooperate through musical activities. The
thought kept prominently in mind was the important
truth of how music benefits the industrial world.
More than 100 plants, many of these employing
more than 1,000 women and men, cooperated during
the week. Their usual method of participation was
the holding of noon-day songs for the workers.
