High Cost of Enteriainment
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON—The House Labor Subcommittee
under Pennsylvania Republican Rep. Carroll D.
Kearns, which opens hearings in Los Angeles Aug.
4, is trying to do something about the high cost of
entertainment.
In previous Washington hearings after passage
of the Taft-Hartley bill, the Kearns subcommittee
took on James Caesar Petrillo of the musicians’
union for a couple of days. Just before Congress
adjourned, Kearns and Petrillo had a private con
ference in which they paved the way for curing two
of the Petrillo-caused headaches—broadcasting by
school -orchestras and the making of records by
the U. S. armed service bands, for instruction pur
poses.
This doesn't mean that the Petrillo menace is
over. But Kearns beliéves that with this as a starter,
the other Petrillo demands can be worked out by
direct negotiation. They include protection for mu-‘
sicians against loss of employment througl{l'chaini
broadcasts and new royalty arrangements for
musicians on recordings, and in the making of
movie sound tracks. ‘
CAN'T STOP PROGRESS |
These are admittedly tough problems if pro
fessional musicians, who maké an uncertain living
at best, are not to be kicked around and cheated
out of the profits of their performances. Kearns'
says Petrillo “has a complex against technological
improvements.” But there’s no sepse in irying to
stop progress because in the long run suchads
vances mean more, not less employment for every~
body. : o
Kearns has therefore recessed his hearings on
the Petrillo case until fall. If Petrillo doesn’t reach
an agreement with the broadcasters, the record
and movie-makers, then Kearns says he'll swing
again. His move will be to consider how much the
musicians’ union’s actions constitute a restraint
of trade tending to increase the cost of musical en
tertainment to the public.
The approach to the movie rackets in the Los
Angeles hearings is much the same. Hollywood has
been in an uproar for years over what are probably
the most stupid jurisdictional strikes in the country.
What Kearns wants to do is show the public how
men are actually being kept from work by uniph
restrictions. The union rules are purposely involved,
he believes, in order to create confusion and make
it hard to operate. If public opinion can just be
aroused over these things, Kearns says it will do
more good than all the acts of Congress or Supreme
Court decisions to end such abuses. : ;
He cites as a typical abuse Cecil DeMille’s testi
mony about the star whose dress became unsnappéd
in the making of “Unconquered.” Paramount had
to be halted for a matter of hours and at a cost of
$93,000 until a union wardrobe mistress could be
located to button the leading lady up. Nobody else
dared touch her. : A
THEATERGOERS GETTING PARTICULAR
That is proved, says Kearns, by the fact that the
public is now picking its movies pretty carefully.
People won't pay high prices for just-any old movie.
They've got to know it's good in advance Before
they’ll fork over at the ticket window. To a de
gree, the movies are in danger of xiricix"xg ‘them
selves out of business just as the legitimate theater
did.
Before the Kearns committee gets through; it will
hold hearings in, Chicago and New York where
other artificial restrictions make the cost of en
tertainment higher.
Kearns himself is a colorful agent who is pretty
well qualified to head up this probe. Though only
a freshman congressman, he has made his mark
He worked his way througn college as a railroader,
50 he knows about featherbedding. He was in the
construction business in Chicago, so he knows about
building rackets. He is a member of the musicians’
union himself, a concert artist and choral con
ductor. He ended up as a teacher and superinten
dent of schools at Farrell, Pa.
UMT: THE MILITARY ANGLE
Before adjournment the House Armed
Forces Committee approved Universal
Military Training by a vote of 20 to 0.
‘That is the mearest this Congress has.got
to doing something positive about the
]ung‘-rapg’e manpower needs of national
security. Thus Americans will have sev
eral months more to discuss the issue be
lfore Congress is likely to take action.
-~ UMT has been both upheld and con
demned on a variety of grounds. But the
simplest starting point for any clear ap
praisal of the question lies among the
strictly military pros and cons. For not all
military opinion endorses UMT.
Experts on both sides agree there is no
complete defense in sight against the new
weapons of warfare. Counter-measures
are feasible, however, which would serve
also as strong deterrents to aggression.
These they 2nvision as: 1. Powerful strik
ing forces, ever ready to counterattack
and destroy strategic enemy bases. 2. Re
serves of manpower for replacement, and
for mass armies with whicn to invade and
occupy enemy territory.
Both sides prefer to maintain the strik
ing forces through voluntary enlistments.
They differ over how to provide and train
reserves. \
The Army—now backed by the Presi
dent’s Advisory Commission — officially
sees no answer other than universal train
ing. Some Army men, however, and, we
deduce, more in the other services, ques
tion the military soundness of UMT on
these grounds:
1. No mass armies would be needed
either to invade or repel invasion until
complete control of the air and sea were
either won or lost. This would take a year.
In that time, with Organized Reserve and
National Guard units reinforcing the
“regulars,” mass armies could be trained.
2. UMT would be so vast, so costly, and
so attention-getting it could drain support
away from -the more vital ready-forces
and encourage a false, Maginot-Line sense
of security. i
This viewpoint assumes, it should be
noted, a development of the several 'Or
ganized Reserves and of the . National
Guard to a size and efficiency that will
take some doing to reach. 5. -
Note likewise: There is no arument
over UMT versus letting things ride as
they are. It is just a difference over
whether it must be UMT or a something
else with just about as big a price tag.—

THE NEW POLICY FOR GERMANY
The new American occupation policy
for western Germany is clearly an attempt
to fit an important missing piece into the
pattern of the Marshall plan. It is not a
policy to be achieved quickly, and its suc
cess is not a foregone conclusion. But it is
unlikely that the long-range recovery pro
gram, of which the Marshall plan is a
start, could work at all without it.
The old policy injured victors and viec
tims, in an economic sense, as well as van
quished. An' industrially productive Ger
many, hedged by safeguards which the
new policy provides, should certainly help
to rebuild Europe without letting Ger
many forget her past sins or prepare for
future ones. g ‘
Production and only production which
creates a balance of supply and demand is
the only sure cure for the increasing wage
and price spiral.—George M. Humphrey,
Pittsburgh coal and steel executive.
The toughest thing about success is that
you've got to keep on being a success. Tal
ent is only a starting point in business.
You've got to keep working with that tal
ent.—lrving Berlin, song writer.
We keep the iron curtain down on how
much we don’t know, which is practically
everything.—Charles F. Kettering, Gen
eral Motors engineer.
It is time to serve notice that Operation
Rathole is at an end. If European nations
are more interested in Red fascism than in
rehabilitation, that is their concern.—Rep.
Everett Dirksen (R) of Il}inois. * /)
The United States should halt most of
its aid to Europe because Western Europe
is to a large extent finished. No amount
of money can restore the economic condi
tions that formerly prevailed in Western
Europe.—Robert E. Wood, board chair
man of Sears, Roebuck & Company.
One couple in every three in the United
States is childless. =
Absorbing more butter than plain bread,
toast is no longer considered slimming.
Approximately 2,891,000 foreigners
live in France, with about a half million
of these being residents of Paris.
Michael Faraday was a great research
worker in the relation between magnetism
and electricity.
There are more than 23,000 factories in
Australia. These employ approximately
500,000 persons. ‘
Telegraph wires in East Africa have to
be carried on exceptionally high poles
owing to the liability of giraffes breaking
the cables. |
