Receives Homage On 50th Birthday NUKUALOFA, Tonga Islands -Queen Salote, picturesque sovereign of Tonga and only woman in the British Empire except Britain’s Elizabeth entitled to call herself queen, has just celebrated her 50th birthday. The regal, towering Polynesian who stands six feet three inches tall, has ruled this little independent kingdom since April 1918. The 44,000 inhabitants of the kingdom deep in the South Seas observed the event with rejoicing in an atmosphere of isolated peace and prosperity. The high post-war price of copra, Tonga’s principal export, has given the kingdom a buoyant economy. Banana shipments to New Zealand, second leading export. also are good. Untouched by War Virtually untouched 'by two world wars, the islanders paid homage to their queen in thanksgiving church services htroughout Tonga, the day before her birthday, and at an official service in the royal chapel on the palace

grounds.

The queen called her subjects to a great fete on her palace grounds. The strains of the government band, tootling in the public park near the palace, carried through the soft balmy night of Tonga’s semi-tropical climate. Tonga is an escapists’ paradise. Lying 2,000 miles northeast of Sydney, Australia, and 2,700 miles south of Pearl Harbor, it has no newspaper to banner-line the talk of the hydrogen bomb or the hot flashes of the east-west cold war. Most of its adults can read and write, however. Education for many years has been free and compulsory between the ages of six and 14. Only Small Guns The only war-like note that sounded during the great rejoicing was the 'boom of a 21-gun salute to the queen at high noon at Nuku’alofa, capital of the island group which Britain’s Capt. James Cook named the Friendly Isles in 1773. The guns were only small signal guns presented by the British

in 1945.

While most of the other islands of the Pacific have been annexed in one way or the other toy European and Asiatic owers, Tonga remains an independent kingdom under British protection. It has all the institutions and trappings of a vest-pocket kingdom. It is a limited constitutional monarchy consisting of a sovereign, a privy council, parliment, prime minister and cabinet. Its link with Britain i s through a British resident agent and consul, who controls the kingdom’s foreign relations, financial policy and the criminal and civil jurisdiction of British and foreign residents. Protected By Treaty In 1900 Tonga signed a treaty of friendship and protection with Britain, under which Tonga agreed not to make any treaties with other nations. Britain agreed to protect Tonga against attack and established a small subsidy for the local government. In return Britain received access to Tonga ports for her warships at all times and the right to establish coalin gstations or forts, a point which gives the islands some strategic significance now for the United States and other western nations. Queen Salote gave the price of a fighter plane to New Zealand at the outbreak of Warld War II and raised a small force of Tongan troops. All members of the government, including Salote, subscribed 10 per cent of their salaries to a war fund.

RECARDED SERMONS BRING SERVICES TO SHUT-INS MILWAUKEE — Oscar Lemke, a jeweler, spends many of his free hours bringing recorded sermons to the old and ill members of the Methodist congregation to which he belongs. Lemke decided he Wanted to do things for other people ton a regular basis. He started his project because he had a tape recorder and knew that his pastor had members who could not get to church to hear the sermons. So Lemke brings his recorder to church on Sundays and records the words of the Rev. Earl Allen of the Kingsley Methodist Church. He says he has a “congregation within a congregation” of 20 members and is adding more.

As late as 1829, some 7 per cent of all sailing ships afloat were wrecked each year, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica.

NEW YORK— —Everything was perfectly normal at Steinway Hall one morning last November. The grand pianois n display were grander than ever, shimmering in highly-polished beauty. The dignified salesmen walked quietly on plushy carpets, gently steering mink-coated ladies from one model to another. Nobody paid any attention to two men who walked in. One was tall and good-looking. The other wasn’t. They headed straight for a piano, and the smaller man sat down and began to play and sing; “Pud annuder niggle in, to der niggleodeon—” That’s as far as Stephen Weiss got with the first public performance of “Music! Music! Music!,” the song that’s now number one on almost any listing of popular tunes. The dignified salesmen hurried over, muttered something about such behavior being disgraceful, and bounced the two. The other man was Howard Richmond, ah embryo music publisher. Richmond, for more than 13 years a succesful publicist for bands and vocalists, had published one song a few months before, the hit novelty, “Hop Scotch Polka.” Then, just before the incident in Steinway Hall, Weiss walked in to his cubby-hole office. He wanted to interest Richmond in the song h e and a youngster named Bernie Baum had written. He explained that he had written hit songs, like “They Say” and “Angels i nDisguise,” and he felt sure that his new tune would be a sensation. But Richmond wasn’t particularly interested in new songs. He had one, it was making him money and, besides, he was tone deaf and didn’t know the first thing about music. He found, however, that the Austrian-born Weiss was difficult to brush. “We don’t have a piano here,” Richmond said. “How’ll I listen when we don't have a piano?” Weiss remembered that Steinway Hall was right downstairs, so down they went. After they were bounced, Richmond bluffed his way into a rehearsal 'hall. A porter and a charwoman were cleaning up as Weiss pounded out his song. They both began to tap their feet and Richmond sat up and took notice. He talked Weiss down from the $1000 advancb he wanted to $1, had the song pressed in about 50 records, sent them out in midDecember to his disc jockey friends—and nothing happened. * * * He began to close his office and went to Chicago where he was press-agenting Frank Sinatra. By the first week in January, however, long-distance phones began to ring. The disc jockeys, as a favor to their old friend Richmond, had played the song once or twice. The public screamed for more. They wanted to buy the sheet music, but there was none. The song wasn’t even copyrighted. When Richmond found that back orders for the sheet music totaled 118,000, he reopened his office and was back in business as a music publisher. And he

plans to stay in business. It ordinarily takes an established publisher anywhere from six weeks to six months, plus about $35,000, to put over a hit tune. It took about four weeks and less than $400 for “Music! Music! Music!” to go over. “But it was all luck,” Richmond says. “I realize that.” One recording is over a million in sales, others are approaching that figure, sheet music sales will come to about a half-mllion and the song is now number one in England, too, despite the fact that they have neither “nickles” nor “nickleodeons” there. All they seem to want, as the song_says, is music, music, music.

“Handfasting” was the ancient Scottish custom in which a couple could solemnize a temporary marriage by a verbal pledge made while holding hands. After a year of trial marriage, they could either marry permanently or become single again. .
