This the association previously had denied in a letter to | Col. H resident of the union ede from his stand, however, declaring the mu- | sicians’ organization was “against military bands playing outside the military reservations at all’ Oral protests of the citizens to the War Department in an effort to save their concert were futile, however, and | the resolution of the association fol- | lowed. refused Settles Moot Ques Secretary Davis. in hi tled the moot question, ra Hawkins. as to the lezality tary band playing off the reservatic for anything but a purely official | function, the military regulations | reading: “}ereafter no enlisted man in v.he‘ active service of the Army . . . shall} be detailed, ordered or |n¢rmllled to leave his post to engage in any pur- suit, business or performance in civil Jife for emolument, hire, or otherwise, | when the same shall interfere with the customary employment and regu- lar en ement of local civilians in the respective arts, trades or profes- sions.
