band plays for big dance at the
Eagles Hall, lit Fourth st. S. E.,
Minneapolis.
Henderson's band will be the
first name" band the Localities
have had an opportunity to dance
to for several months.
Fletcher Henderson possesses
the ability which few leaders have
to inspire their men to their best
efforts at all times. With a pc
culiar rhythmic swing on the piano
that is never forgotten entirely by
anyone who ever dances or listens
to it, he can set a ballroom or
theatre afre with his interpreta-
ton of both popular and old favo-
rites. ..
Advance tickets may be secured

New York-Although the Colum-
bia Broadcasting System, the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company and
the Blue Network are now hiring
Negro musicians for regular jobs
in their New York stations, the
American Federation of Musicians
lily-white locals in key cities out
side New York bar Negro musi-
clans from certain jobs. The
NAACP learned this week that the
AIMS jim-crow locals may be in
violation of the Presidents Execu-
tive Order 1902, banning discrimi-
nation in labor unions.
Chicago local 10, for example, is
all-white, and has an exclusive con-
tract with radio stations there to
supply musicians for regular jobs.
Negroes in the jim-crow local are
not called except for film work,
the NAACP said.
The fight to abolish separate To-
Gals entered the first round when
this months issue of the magazine
Music and Rhythm, edited by John
Hammond, NAACP board member,
featured statements from tophight
bandsmen of both races who favor
single locals.
Among those who spoke out are
Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey,
Claude Thornhill, Emery Deutsch,
Shep Fields, Woody Herman, Count
Basic, Abe Lyman, Hal Mcintyre
and Zutty Singleton.
They declared that jim-crow To-
Gals are not satisfactory and are
improbable to Negro musicians.
Chief evils of the separate system
are unequal wage scales, virtual
shut-outs of Negro bands from
radio stations, theatres, and high
paying spots over which white To-
Gals have jurisdiction, and a gen.

Admen See Larger
Negro Market for
After-War Era

New York, June 23.-Industry's
expanded wartime advertising
schedules must include Negro
newspapers if the vital cooperation
of all sectors of the nation is to
be attained, according to conclu-
sions reached by an advertising
and marketing forum sponsored
here this week by the "New York
Amsterdam Star-News." The for
UNI was the first ever held on the
subject of the Negro market and
represented an evaluation of Negro
consumers for manufacturers and
advertisers.
With the rapid Indignation Of
ever increasing numbers Of Ne
groes into defense and allied in
dustries, it was pointed out that
this market of Is million consum-
ers with a potential buying power
of nearly six billion dollars, will be-
come the object of assiduous cul-
tivation in the postwar era.
Stressing the role of advertising
under our present war economy, H.
H. Kynett, partner of Aitkin-Ky-
nett Company, asserted it should
help direct the war effort into
whatever channels may seem de-
sirable; facilitate change-overs in
the nations economy and prepare
consumers for impending restric-
tions. Advertising should also aid
in the introduction of substitutes,
alternatives and new products, and
divert desires into new channels, as
we'll as maintain the advertisers
contacts with his market when
merchandise is not available, he
added.
John ]. Hagen, space buyer for
Lloyd, Chester & Dillingham;,
stated that selling the Negro mar
ket to manufacturers is an educa-
tional job for Negro advertising
stats. He expressed the belief that
not one out of 10 space buyers in
New York City has ever been above
125th street, and that all have in
fantile notions about Negro buy
ing habits.
Arthur Hirose, director of pro-
motion and market research for
the Mccall Corporation, urged all
papers to make analyses of their
markets, and William G. Black,
sales manager of Interstate United
Newspapers, outlined merchandise
ing techniques which have been
used by Negro papers to increase
sales of various products.

ager of Carstairs Division of Cal
vert Distillers Corporation; James

Part Of the tremendous success
of the current "Porgy and Bess" is
undoubtedly due to its popular

final and greatest work Of one Of
Americas greatest composers.

Kel|erman's Fine Program
P|eases Monday Musical

the early church form to opera.
He covered the period from the
early works of Palestrina in
1914 to the writing of such well
known operas as "Rigoletto" by
Verdi who died in 1901, the
last of the great line of Italian
opera writer's.
The 18th century opera style
was that of Alexander Scarlatti
and it was introduced into Hol-
land and Germany where it was
sung in Italian. It was popular
lied by use at festivals and in
the many small civic opera
houses.
The work of Mozart, 1856
1871 as an opera composer, was
most important. Mr.. Kellerman
praised Frieda Hempel as an
interpreter Of Mozart.
Mr.. Kellerman depressed to
note that in last Saturdays
Metropolitan broadcast of Mo-
zart's The Magic Flute some of
the real beauty was lost by CIV
ing it in English; he definitely
supports singing an opera in its
original language.
After pointing out the con-
tributions of such composers as
Car. Maria Won Weber, Hector
Berlioz and Beethoven to opera,
Mr.. Kellerman spoke Of the
artists of yesterday and today.
He knew Richard Strauss per-
sonally, and had the invaluable
opportunity to sing and learn
the masters Interpretation of
his own songs. Strauss was re-
vealed as a most lovable char
acter.
On a recent trip to New York
Mr.. Kellerman heard a splendid
performance of Strauss der
Rosenkavalier." Although prais-
ing the present day singers, he
still feels those of yesterday to
be truly greater. He gave some
entertaining stories about Car
uso and Madame Schuman-
Heink whom he knew very well.
BY no means to be forgotten
was the lovely young singers
addition to the evenings pleas
ure. Miss Rabbit sang "Caro
Nome" from Rigoletto. "The
Maids of Cadiz" by Delibes and
"The Bell Song" from Lakme.
A young singer with only three
years study, she shows great
promise. She has an earnest
direct style of singing which
makes light of the many tech
nical difficulties found in these
florid colatura arias.
