Music is sometimes called d
universal language. wonder If
it is? We are a conceited nation,
as well as a conceited race Il
mean human race), and we
think that we are the last word
in everything. Now how many
of you have had the pleasure
Of hearing Chinese opera? If you
did, did you understand it? did
you enjoy it? That is only one
instance. The culture Of all ma
tons is different, and music is
no exception. It is possible to
develop music into the highest
form Of expression; every sound
conveys a thought to the brain
But we have not scratched the
surface Of the possibilities, as.
yet, and the way the present
generator is diverting music to
inspiration Of passions, and, the
way the students Of today are
seeking the superficial instead
of the true, in music as we'll as
everything else, opens a trend of
thought in my mind, which leads
me to doubt that music can be
called a universal language. Try
if you can get my meaning, think
it over, and I shall be glad to
hear some other opinions on the
subject.

been one democratic family. Sim

From Sherman Act
By the Associated Press.

oS lue AoSOCltteo PgeSs.
Representative Mason, Republican,
of Illinois yesterday introduced q
bill to exempt operations of mu-
tual news-gatherine co-operatives
from terms OF the Sherman Anti
Trust Act.
Mr.. Mason told reporters the pro-
posed legislation was prompted BY
recent Supreme Court decision
requiring the Associated Press, q
nonproflt news cooperative asso-
citation, to revise its bylaws on
admission of members. The court
held these bylaws at present were
in conflict with the Antitrust Act
MIR. Mason's bill would amend the
Sherman Act by adding the fol-
lowing language:
For purposes of this act, the
ordinary and usual operations and
activities Of mutual news-gatherine
co-operatives shall not be consid-
cred to be in restraint of, or to
monopolize, any part of trade OF
commerce.
Mr.. Mason said he planned to
speak in the House on the bill today
and to put in the Congressional
Record an editorial from the Jer-
sey City IN. j. Journal rejecting
his views. He stated:
1T must be clear to Congress
now that law intended to protect
the people against monopoly has a
result never intended when it is
applied to a mutual news-gatherins
cooperative, such as the Associated
Press.

DETROIT, Nov. 14.-General

that its approximately 10000
salaried employees would be given
a 10 per cent increase on the
first $500 of monthly salary, ret
roactive to November /.
The increase does not apply to
senior officers and directors, the
announcement said.
The company said the increase
would affect 10000 General Motors
salaried employees in Michigan, OF
whom $4,000 are in Detroit.
G. E. Wilson, president Of Gen.
eral Motors, said the compensation
OF salaried employees receiving more
than $500 month will be reviewed
in the light of this general increase
and on the basis of their contribu-
ton to the success Of the business"
/ The announcement was made as
the CIO United Automobile Work
ers was demanding a 80 per cent
wage increase for all hourly rated
employees of General Motors and the
other members of the auto industry's
big Three"-Chrysler Corp. and
the Ford Motor Co.
GIN rejected the union demand
and came out with a counter-pro-
pSsal for cost of living increase
which corporation officials estimated
would average an 8 to 10 per cent
increase in pay.
| Meanwhile, Chrysler, preparing
/ to resume negotiations with the
union tomorrow, asked permission to
discharge 'or otherwise discipline"
workers who take part in unauthor-
/ lied strikes.
! Robert w. Conder, director of
labor relations, said there had been
487 work stoppages in Chrysler
! plants since the present contract
went in effect September TO- l943.
! The corporation also asked that its
provisions of the new contract,
scheduled to become effective De-
cember /.
| There was no immediate comment
from the union on the Chrysler
proposal.
! Union negotiations with General
Motors, also will be resumed tomor-
row, negotiations with the Ford
Motor Co. are set for November 90
| Employees in all the Big Three's"
plants have favored strike action to
support the 80 per cent demand and
5000 workers at the Packard Motor
Co. will vote on similar issue
Friday.
