Bryan went to their homes, got
their parents up, and lectured
them for letting their daugh-
tiers stay out so late.
Mr.. Oliver slept in the same
railroad car with Mr.. Bryan
who wore a black skullcap to
bed. Everybody called him
..skullcap Charley" but Mr..
Bryan didn't know it.
By the time Mr.. Oliver
started to cover Roosevelt in
1886, going everywhere with
him for two years, and playing
poker with the President, too,
he had headed the APPS con-
gressional staff for seven years.
Then in 1888 he had to have a
kidney removed. After that he
made fewer trips. stayed mostly
at the White House not only
under Mr.. Roosevelt but under
Mr.. Truman and Gen. Eisen-
hover, too.
His most memorable days in
all these years was April IL,
1945, when Mr.. Roosevelt died
at Warm Springs, Ga. Mr..
Oliver was there.
In 1860, on a week end cover
ing the White House, he got a
heart attack. Life for him
slowed down after that. His
doctor wouldn't let him get in
volved in excitement any more.
That was why his friends
with whom he had worked so
many years in the AP office
couldn't give him a party when
he retired today after 40 years
service, longer than anyone now
employed by the worldwide
organization.
They arranged to gather
around his desk, give him a
present, and wish a long and
happy life. He and his wife,
Myrtle, whom he married 81
years ago, have a house at 1904

BY IRVING LOWENS
Star Music Critic

What kind Of an income
would you expect to realize
If you were one Of the 10
most financially successful
composers of serious music
living in the United States
today?
A few weeks ago In New
York, Henry Cowell. one of
the most prolific Of living
American composers, dis
closed his 1861 earnings dur
ing the course Of q panel on
"The Artist in Our Society"
sponsored by the National
Council Of Women of the
United States.
Mr.. Cowell's more than
1000 works have brought him
to the point where his earn
ing power from his own mu-
sic is probably not exceeded
, by more than half a dozen
. Of his colleagues, and as a
&. consequence, his remarks
aroused considerable discus
sion.
Last year, Mr.. Cowell took
In $500 from radio and
television performances Of his
recorded music. Record and
sheet music sales plus fees
for live performances brought
him an additional $4,000.
Total: $500.
He Has to Teach
II can live on what I make
from music" commented Mr..
Cowell, "but not as I care to
live-and so I am q profes-
Sor."
In the light Of this figure,
he can hardly be blamed for
doing more teaching at Co
lumbia University and less
composing.
Mr.. Cowell'S publisher US
ually collects 500 for the
world premiere Of q large
work such as q symphony Of
which the composer gets
half; for each subsequent
performance, Mr.. Cowell gets
$25.
For recorded performances
OF his works broadcast by
commercial radio stations,
Mr.. Cowell receives 121a cents
per minute. Because they
are considered background
music" when they are heard
on television, the same pieces
telecaSt bring him in only
one-quarter that amount or
3h cents per minute.
Others on the panel were
the distinguished writer,
James Michener, Broad
way producer Robert White
head. and q junior collegue,
the Pulitzer rize-winning
composer Norman Dello Joio
Mr.. Michener especially
was Mortified at the compos-
er's cold recital Of the finan-
cial facts Of his case, calling
1t "ScandalouS."

skill of Mr.. Cowell can make

ARTS BILL AMENDMENTS
Representative Carroll D.
Kearns, Republican of Penn
sylvania. last week informed
the National Society Of Arts
and Letters that he planned
to introduce several amend
ments to help get the Feder-
al Advisory Council on the
Arts bill enacted by the
House.
After the sentence in the
old bill III. r. 4172) reading
that the announcement Of
the arts and cultural activi-
ties, while primarily a mat
ter for private and local ini-
tiative, Is an appropriate
matter Of concern to the
United States Government, "
he proposes the following ad-
dition:
And for this purpose there
should be q council having
advisory functions only, to
advise on the best ways Of
encouraging and giving Fed
eral recognition to the arts
and cultural activities, but
any funds appropriated 70 r
the Federal Advisory Coun-
Gil on the Arts, established
by section z (a) Of this act,
shall not be used to finance
or otherwise subsidize any
artistic or cultural activities
not provided for in this
act"
Also, after the statement
that the Council shall be
composed Of 21 members"
Mr.. KearnS would add: Not
more than II Of whom shall
be members of the same po-
litical party"

BEN mitchell MORRIS
On New Years morning Of
1861, Ben Mitchell Morris,
gifted tenor soloist Of the
Navy Band, was involved in a
serious automobile accident
while en- route to sing for
the then Chief Of Naval OPP
erations, Admiral Arleigh
Burke.
He was thrown through his
windshield and sustained in
juries to his face and throat
that made physicians doubt
that he would ever sing
again.
For the first time in IL
years, his name was missing
from the programs Of the
Navy Band on tour, and 1t was
not until last November. aft
er II months of arduous and
careful retraining under the
tutelage Of voice teacher
Walter Brecht, that he felt
sure that his voice would
fully return.
This coming Friday, he
makes his first formal ap-
pearance with the Navy Band
since the accident, and his
many friends and admirers
wish him every success with
his renewed career.
