Mus,e,aos BOOSTING Philadelphia

Musicians Boosting Philadelphia
TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir--A few weeks ago noticed IN
your paper articles pertaining to the
boosting Of Philadelphia. 1t may In
terest you to learn Of facts under way
to boost this city--1 mean Of music.
I have been working for months, not
only in Philadelphia, but New YORK
and Chicago, with two Of tho pest
known music publishers in the coun-
try, who are giving me wonderful sup
port in advertising the music organi.
cations Of Philadelphia.
have repeatedly approached dance
studio managers to help me bring apout
better music to the dance halls. How
ever. they turned deaf ear to my re-
quests. have addressed the. dancing
masters in body, but they heed not
my appeal. Every city in the country
is anxious to have better music ana
managers will not consider It. The
people must be educated to the better
class Of music and there 10 but one
way to educate them-giving them good
music.
Few persons pause to realise that
musical organization Us ono OF tht
greatest advertising agents any city
may have. The Philadelphia public
desires good music. but It doesn't ge,
1t. The house managers will not give
1t to them. And the musicians mus'
take the blame. 1t is not fair to musi !.
clans who would much rather PLAY
good music than the jazz. Give th'
public good music and you will have
better city and better citizens. Th'
real people of the city who enjoy, 9
decent dance can find very few suitable
places to go.
Many band and orchestra leaders are
with me heart and soul in my movement
to boost Philadelphia and the work II
being pushed by hundreds OF musician:
who are anxious to help their city.
will appreciate, as we'll as thou
sands Of musicians, any operation
the EVENING PUBLIC LEDGER may ex
tend. The Elks, the Artisans and many
other notable organizations whose mem
bers are interested in music are con
signing themselves in this big boosting

SHOPMEN STRIKE.

Unions Demand Present Wages

BIG VOTE FOR WALK0UT

Chicago, June 2S.-A strike Of the
10000 railway shopmen Of the coun.
try will be called for July 1 unless the
railroads agree to stay the SEQ, 900 900
wage cut due the shop workers on that
date and to restore certain working con.
ditions formerly in effect, II was made
known last night through telegram
from b. NJ. Jewell. head Of the shop
crafts, to the Association Of Railway
Executives.
Decision to call strike cane after
a lengthy discussion by the Executive
Committee Of the six shop crafts unions,
based on the strike vote Of the men
thus far tabulated,
Should the rail heads arrange an i'm
mediate conference, agreeing mean
while to continue present wages, re.
store working rules modified by ths
Railroad Labor Board and discontinue
farming out railroad work. however.
walkout can be halted, the Telegram
said. Otherwise sanction OF with
drawal from employment on July I

ISOLATION Of Railway Executives, throw
no light on the actual strike vote be
yond saying It was an "overwhelminl
majority" Ballots were still cominl
in, It was said, as they were not 70
turnable until June 80. A two.third
majority is required by the union BY
laws to call strike.
Although the actual call for the walk
out was made dependent on the railwa
executives reply to Mr.. JEWELS ulti
matum, little expectation was expresse
In railroad circles that the executive
would agree to such sweeping demand
as those made by the unions.

Declarin the railroads have acted o

Mr.. JEWELS message pointed out ION
benefit which may come to the carrier
and their employees and to the genera
public, from the fact that ther
are national spokesmen of the con
fiicting interests who might be able t

These waves travel In every direction

The distance at which they may be re-.

DR.. Blake gave some facts aboIt
static disturbances. The host Of radio
enthusiasts who installed receiving
sets in their homes last winter, when
atmospheric conditions were at their
best, have: long before this time, re.
ceived their first Introduction to stat.
ic electricity. Static dominates the air
during the warm summer weather, for
1t crackles and splutters almost contin-
uously in the phones, at times becom.
ing SO strong as to make the reception
of radio messages impossible. The
weeks Of the season now passing into
midsummer have been days and
nights Of bad static" Some Of the
broadcasting stations suspended op-
erations which static held the regal
position in the ether Not only low
wave broadcasting stations, but the.
high powered transatlantic arc sta
tions have been hindered by atmos.
pheric conditions.
The climax for static disturbances
has been reached for this year. The
strength of the suns rays and their
effect on wireless signals will dimin-
ish with each day and by September
static will begin appreciabiy to have
lost its strength and long distance ra.
dio programs will again be heard clear
ly. 1t is possible that before another
static gets an opportunity to open
another attack upon radio next spring
some one will have discovered an ef-
fective means of eliminating the elec-
trical disturbances. Some inventions
to this purpose already have been
announced but their cost thus far
practically prohibits them to the anna
teur.

PETITIONS ASKING
PAVING SIDEWALKS
BEING CIRCULATED
Maple Avenue, Waterman, Hol-
land, Dobbs and portions of
Haynes Street on List

Several petitions are being circu-
lated on various streets of the city
to pave the sidewalks. For sometime
on unpaved streets, but until recent
ly no definite action was taken.
The property owners on the streets
Will have to petition the city council.
Then the city will do the grading
and the surveying, but the property
owners will have to have the paving
done. They may secure the paving
from any firm or person they wish
but it will have to be cement and be
laid in the foundation graded by the
city.
The streets asking for paving so
far are Maple avenue, Waterman
street, Holland street, Dobbs street
and portions of Haynes street. The
primary aim of this movement is to
furnish good sidewalks for the school
children but at the same time it will
increase the value of the property
and make Marietta truly Gem city.

Big MONEY SAFE

CITIZENS NATIONAL
New Bank Will Keep Large Safe
IN Front of Building. Is Con-

The Citizens, National Bank of

The safe weighs 1880 pounds, is
made of Manganese steel, cost So

that the safe cannot be opened at all

the safe when locked, it takes thirty.
SIX hours to drill a hole through the
Ithinnest part of the walls, using a
motor driven drill. No burglar hardly
tarry that long on the job.
The Ic{tizens National, following
the plan of good many banks over
the country, have decided to place
the safe near the front of the build.
ing where it can be seen at all times
by any one passing by. Thus, it is
said, it is another discouraging fea.

Officers of the bank extend cord

and see the safe and they will gladly
demonstrate the safety feature about
it.

REPORT SHOWS
CONDITION OF STATES
GROWING COTTON BAD
Georgia 81. Last Among Fifteen
Southern States. California
Leads, then Arizona

In a recent report from the j. w.
Jay & Co., of New York, shows that
Georgia is the lowest of the fifteen
southern states in the condition of
the growing cotton crop. California
leads all the states with a per centage
of 1920, Arizona next with $3.50.
South Carolina is next to Georgia
with 51.1ao while Georgia has only
At. %.
The report in a summary by states
says about Georgia, "Ten days early
to two weeks late. Cultivation good
to fair. Plant normal. Fruiting fair
to poor. Shedding more than usual.
No to crop expected. Labor plenti-
full. The continued excessive rain
fall caused great destruction by the
weevil. Clear, warm weather will
improve somewhat, although planters
are discouraged as the prospects are
poor to bad"

TREE USED FOR TELE-
PHONE POLE YESTERDAY
AND FOR RADIO TODAY

"Boys Will Be Boys" is an old
saying but never the less it is
certainly a true one. We had
this brought out very plainly the
other day. Two boys were put
ting up their radio outfit, won
through the Journal, and one end
of their antenna would have to
be put up in the yard of neigh
Dor. When they approached the
neighbor she readily agreed and
told the boys that their question
reminded her of four other boys
back about twenty-five years
The "cotton string" telephone
with "tin can" receivers has al
ways been popular with boys. So
it was twenty-five years ago,
when those four boys asked per-
mission to put up their telephone
wire in her tree. She agreed
then as she did the other day.
And today the same porcelain
knob that those boys used for
their wire is still in the tree near
the limb that the present gen.
Grafton has their real radio on.
