NEWTON RADIO BILL
FLAYED BY AUTHORS
American Society Of Composers
Oppose Royalty Exemption
for Companies.
soUsA AND HERBERT OBJECT
Prohibition Blamed for Death of
Light Opera Inspiration.

Radio companies should not be ex-
empted from royalties on musical
selections they broadcast, f. c. Mills
of New York, executive director of
the American Society Of Authors and
Composers, today told the House
patents committee. He opposed the
Newton bill proposing such ex-
emption.
The Radio Corporation of America,
Mills said, last year paid the society
only $3.50 in royalties, although
the corporation made profit of
s5,000,0OO on a gross business of
$29,000,00o.
The light opera industry, requiring
drinking songs Of the rollicking kind,
has been destroyed by prohibition,
because these songs cannot be writ
ten nowadays, as apparently the in
spiration is lacking" John Philip
Sousa, noted composer and band
master, told the committee yesterday.
Both Mr.. SouSa and Victor Herbert
appeared as representatives of the
American Society of Authors and Com
poSerS in opposition to the Newton bill.
MI I1tTDerC SAID the sale OF Sneet
music was decreasing at an alarming
rate, and pointed out that if the
present situation should continue
there would be no initiative in mu-
sical art. He also said the poor
rendering of such music at present
was getting on the nerves of the peo-
pie and having a bad effect on the
public Publicity afforded by radio
broadcasting to the composers was
harmful the witnesses said, in that
it killed the popularity of songs be-
fore the public had the inclination
to purchase the music either in sheet
or photographic record form.
