Federation Of Musical Clubs
Seek to Stop the PubliCa-

in the United States will be proposed
at today's session of the National Fed
GRAFTON Of Muical Clubs by Mrs. ia
son Walker Of Mephis. chairman Of
the standing committee on American

music which has not been approved
by the proposed board
I'VE of the committee on American

that indecent songs will be published
as long as there is a demand for them
Until this convection we have with
