NO RECORDS AFTER 1947 Ponravenvan) The making of recordings and tran- “4criptions for use by broadcasters, phono- graphs and jikesboxes has been banned -iPederation of Musicians, = This means, that after December 31st, “when the ban goes into effect, there will abe no new reeordings for broadcast, home use, juke-boxés or, any other puspose. The “edict catries sefious implications for the “makers of records as well as the users of them. It will be recalled that in August, "1942, the union put a ban on record-mak- ‘ing which lasted until November, 1944. “During the period, record companies re- ~issued old dises and brought back. into fa- “wor many old popular songs. The twenty- ““seven month ban was terminated by a .“gontract undér- which the union received a royalty from the sale of records which amounted to about $2,000,000 a year. * This contract cannot be renewed for ‘Qnext year under the Taft-Hartley Labor Act. Consequently, the union, through a _ its members will go out of tHe business of making recordings. The Labor law, design- :ed to help broadcasters and record-mak- ‘ners, outlawed the uhion-administered wel- "fare fund and, as a result, the union will .place a ban which may be permanent: James C. Petrillo, president of the ‘musicians union, says that the members of “the union are, determined “‘once and for yall that they, will not make the instru- cment that will eventually destroy them. They realize that in making recordings «sand transcriptions, they are making ‘{their own competition, which would de- ~’stroy them.” ‘* The atgument of the union is that every time a recording is made, there is “less demand for live musicians. If an or- ‘sehestra, for example, makes a recording ‘and the record-makers sell thousantds of . the records, there is obviously music with- out the presence or employment of addi- “tional musicians.. Whether the ban on ecordings will compel the public to em- y live musicians on a scale sufficient ke up the present estimated annual “wages of $5,000,000 remains to be seen. : coer ERIS aa “When the cat's away, the mice will “nplay,” isa saying that has many applica- tions, —_—__ Our Language: We breakdown and ‘we crackup.

A-eity ordinance prohibits: shooting in the city limits, but scores of boys may be seen any day, after school is out, and all day on Saturday and Sunday, walking second clase matter | 1) out the streets with BB air guns, sling- shots, or .22 rifles. So far as The Citizen knows, not one of the boys has been arrested for violat- ing the law. It has been many a day since shooting in the city limits has been so widespread as it i8 @t present and done so openly. withott the’ least tastraint on |the part of the police. »,'s +? {When the beys see a; difd, they shoot ! j at it. without any thought where the shots | will go. Shots rip through trees in back- yards and clatter against houses. Not even eit porches are respected by the shoot- ‘Aside from the open siolaiian of the law, the boys are killing some birds, such as mockingbirds, that are songsters, and others that eat insects, such as chipchips and finches. The Citizen does not think it is exag- gerating when it says Key West is the only city in the United States where pro- miscuous shooting is going on without any effort of the police, so far as The Citizen’ has been told, to stop it. The blame should not be placed on the boys alone for ‘violating the ordinance against shooting in the city. Primarily, .their parents should shoulder the blame for buying their sons guns and ‘permitting them to shoot as they please. ‘Several Key Westets, back some years ago, were struck by bullets, fired by boys, and three of those Key Westers lost an eye each. When those accidents occurred, the police busied themselves in stopping the shooting. Why not stop it now, before somebody else is shot? One memorable day a comfimittee of bankers from New York ealled at the White House in Washington and asked the President to cancel the European debts. Calvin Coolidge was the President and when the bankers were through he made his answer: “Well, they hired the money, didn’t they?” The bankers had to admit that their conference was a failure. Now we are hearing about “trial loans” to Europe. _ YIELDING CORREGIDOR Almost unnéticed by most Americans, the:Stars and Stripes have been lowered on Corregidor and the once-mighty fort- ress in Manila Bay has been turned over to the Philippine Republic. The ceremony emphasizes the willing- ness.of the United States, which won the islands from Spain, to deliver them to the people of the Philippines and to give up, without profit and after considerable fi- nancial loss, the rich lands of the Philip- pine Islands to the people who now en- joy independence, It is not often that a great nation, af- ter acquifing territory, voluntarily with- draws and leaves the area to the posses- sion of native inhabitants. Not only did the United States take possession of the Islands from Spain, but, in the years of American occupation, this country has spent: millions of dollars for the benefit of the Filipino people. Most of them re- mained loyal to the cause of the nation when confronted with Japanese invasion, which may be accepted as some evidence that the policies of this nation have been wise. Life is nothing more than a wrangle to those who insist that everybody shall do as they say, do and think as they think. People who want to persuade the peo- ples of the world to become Christian might try to convince the Christians to act like Christians. “BEST FED MOUTH” IS THE SINK Dr. Gayelord Hauser, dietician of New York, says that “American women don’t know how to cook” and that “one of the best-bed mouths in America is the kitchen sink.” The speaker suggests that sixty per cent of our women use antique methods, over- cook food and “their greatest sin is in their cooking of vegetables.” He suggests government-sponsored schools to teach cooking and predicts that “the time will come when poor cooking will be grounds for diverce: We pause, quietly awaiting the storm to arise from the female cooks of Key West. After all, this man Hauser may not know what he is talking about, but, then, again, he might “have something.” u THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Steals Thirty PITTSBURGH, Pa.—Arraigned — on a charge of stealing a 30-foot steel derrick, Enimitt Thémpson, _ 37, explained that he had had aj lot of ttouble dismantling the | apparatus, piece by piece; before | selling it to a junk mahi rretenwerssesentwenatiors Radio Programs CBESASBBRERERET BORER Getected programs as tistea are re ait the same time day iday.
