MINISTER FINDS
HYMNS ARE SET
TO hun MUSIC
zion, City of Our God," Dis
continued at Tulsa,

TULSA, Okla, Aug l-(Special)--
A Tulsa minister has discovered that
the hymn, Zion, City Of Our God. y
| which is TO be found in nearly every
hymnbook in the United States, is set
to the music Of the Austrian national
anthem. "Gott Erhalte Franz den kai.
ser" The original music was composed
by Franz Haydn, but Is claimed in the
American s~ongbooks by another music
writer.
German Music.
II has been found, too, that American
church people have been singing an.
other hymn to the tune OF Deutschland
Uebcr Allies the German song OF ar
ropance and ambition. The word. Of
this hymn are perfectly good Amer.
can words, with no hint Of the real au-
thorship Of the music, This i, another
Haydn composition. but ha. been
claimed by an American
Several ministers in Tulsa have dis
cussed the matter quietly and have de-
cldcd that they will not put these hymns
on the musical programs at Sunday
services hereafter II IS not believed
that many of the church members knew
the facts about these hymns. The dis
covery was made some time ago by a
Tulsa man who had been in Austria
and Germany several years. He i, n
musician and although he does not at.
tend church regularly. he recognized
tho German airs as soon as he heard
them
Discovery Made.
He attended church one Sunday and
it CHANGED that both the hymns were
sung at that service. Several DAYS later
he called the attention of the minister
TO the similarity, showing him that the
music was identical with the Austrian
and. German compositions.
Several ministers refused at first to
believe when they were told about the
music's being identical. but they have
been convinced They will let the mat
ter drop and will not even denounce the
musician who apparently Is guilty OF
having stolen the music.
