KUbLA| KHAN HELD
POOR SONG APPEAL
But Specialist at Hearing
Likes Snappy, Modern
81 Adore YOU"

Kublai Khan simply has no popu-
lar song appeal, in the opinion Of
Henry r. Sohen. Hollywood song
servicing" specialist.
As for a nice, snappy phrase like.
You know that I adore you" that's
modern, he says
These tips on song writing came out
yesterday in the long drawn-ou solici-
tors hearing at the Post Office Depart
ment shortly before recess until Mon
day, when spectators can look forward
to a renewal of the musical siege"
Cohen, chief of staff of the Universal
Song Service, is defending his con-
Germs rights to use the mails in its
business.
Kublai Khan was a classical refer
ence in the lyric, Girl of the Dale"
composed by w. C. O'Brien, post Office
attorney, and submitted to Universal
when he was mapping the Govern
ment's investigator of Universal's
offer to assist amateur writers to put
their work in shape for publication for
a $50 fee.
How First Version Started.
The original verse begins:
''Adown the dale
Like nightingale
Comes my hearts desire"
And the chorus is:
For all times span
I'll be your man
Like Kublai Khan"
O'Brien doesn't think that's much Of
song, but Universal offered to "serv-
ice" it and Cohen wrote a revision after
he came to Washington to show it has
an idea"
Who is Kublai Khan?" O'Brien de-
manded yesterday. and Cohen thought
minute.
"As far as know he's a Chinaman,"
he said.
why did you leave him out of the
revised version?" queried O'Brien after
Cohen said he had attempted to in
incorporate the original idea of the
submitted lyric in the revision.
ON account of him being China
man." Cohen answered.
And in the chorus you simply said,
You know that adore you,'" OBrien
continued.
That's modern - the song writer ex-
planned. "Kublai Khan vas a thou.
sand years old"
Adds Another Couplet.
OBrien added another couplet to the
lyric when Horace ]. Donnelly, sr., re-
spondent's counsel. suggested he was
trying to feature the song because he
is the author"
What you mean to say is:
The girl Of the dale is getting
STALE" he rhymed
AS for Universal's offer to arrange
the song for publication. O'Brien still
says, of the record. that it's no sale.
Edward H. Murphy. representative
of Warner Bros, appeared during the
hearing with a telegram from the
Warner files designed to show thai
Universal's serviced compositions are
received intermittently-and coldly.

Controller Says.

TOPEKA, Kans., July 18.-John R.
McCarl, who for is years kept oficial
tab on the Federal Governments out
going dollars, pictured Gov. ALI M.
Landon today as a "sanely progressive"
presidential candidate, deeply con-
cerned lover our ever-increasing ex-
penditures and our ever mounting pub
lie debt
The former controller general, who
retired from Office June 30. an out
spoken foe Of "extravagant spending" |"
spent an hour and half talking with
the Republican nominee yesterday.
Asked If he would campaign for
Landon, McCarl replied, THAT will
depend upon developments and whether
think can be OF service"
When he came out Of Landon's
Office, McCarl declined to be inter-
viewed by reporters, but later issued
a statement giving his impressions Of
Landon.
"As President Of the United States" !"
McCarl said of Landon. "he will neither
become a dictator nor view the plight
Of the people from such isolated and
lofty eminence as to be tempted to-
ward fantastic experiments rather than
sound and practical measures.
HE impresses one as being sanely
progressive, intent upon moving con-
stantly forward. but always on safe
ID Ill
luton, and rehabilitation before re-
form"
McCarl said Landon possesses such
a keen sense of responsibility for a
public trust that undoubtedly his full
influence will be eXerted for curtail-
ment Of appropriations to amounts
reasonably necessary for legitimate
undertakings by the Federal Govern
ment"

O Fascist movement"
Bazaars at Melilla were closed by
a general strike, which was declared
