An Innocent Abroad American Jazzbos Have Paris Folks by the Ears By Neal R. O’Hara Copyright, 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Company. But French Government Is Getting Ready to Give Our Imported Cafe Orchestras the Gate. PARIS, July 24. HERD of cofored boys from the U. S. A. have musical Paris in the TN hollow of thelr paws. Any jazz band can anchor at a French cato and put the S. R. O. sign in front of the house before the end of the weck, It's a gift. The terrible consequence, the % view, is that jazztios scoop up all the mon uates from the French academies can't get The Frenchman, for all iis temperament, his shrugging of shoulders and talking with the hands, can't grab off the knack of making a saxo- phone whine or casing a snare drum to syncopate. Parisites dance to rag ‘ music with abandon, but the talent to create it must be {mported. The result is that native-borns curl up and starve while tho colored boys gather big money for crap shooting. For the protection of the French artistes a law has recently been passed _ that on and after Oct. 1, no orchestra may contain more ., foreigners. That means “au je from Paris point of sight, while honor grad- 2 look-in on r urant jobs. than 10 per cent. revoir” to American jazz and the return of symphonic dance music to Paris. It may also mean thumbs down ¢ many a cafe that has rolled up huge dividends on the strength of its orchestra. Americans with {at rolls of express money orders think the money exchanges do them a favor translating their fortunes Into franca and “marks. They donft know the half of it. Nearly all the coin changing Joints to which Americans resort take a cut of from 6 to 10 per cent. for shifting darby into another language. The bureaux de change, run by English, Americans and French, do more gypping and fiilmfamming of * Americans in Paris than all the French merchants and together. But you never hear a Yank bleat about the they spend their ttme yapping on the native tradesfolks hotels slapped bank system— All the yokel earmarks pre Parts editions of American papers. Almost any Ya hotel gets his name in the paper as having arrived. If he doesn't get a paragraph in tho tourist notes he grabs off mention in the passenger Ust of the boats that dump off customers at Havre and Cherbourg. Many a small town guy thinks he's big time stuff when a Paris dally records his arrival.
