MUTUAL OFFERS SONG PACT PLAN

Acceptance by Stations in Chain May Bring End

To Music War.

NEW YORK, May 1 (U. P.) —The Mutual Broadcasting System announced today that it was submitting to its 175 member stations a plan for resuming relations with the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, whose music has been off the networks since since Jan. 1. Acceptance of the plan would mean that ASCAP had broken the solid front of broadcasters refusing to use its music, and that other networks might make similar deals, ending the radio music war. ASCAP

including most of the hits of the past 50 years. Mutual's announcement said that when a majority of its stations concurred in the plan, which permits stations to choose between “blanket” and “per program” licenses, ‘“listeners may expect to hear again on Mutual programs, the songs of leading American composers.” Stations are given an opportunity to contract for as long as they wish, up to Jan. 1, 1950. Mutual's direetors preferred the “blanket” license plan for network programs, but each | station has a “free choice,” the announcement said. It said that in addition to Mutual itself, ASCAP was expected tol make individual agreements with! “such affiliated stations as WOR, | New York, WGN, Chicago; KHJ, Los Angeles, and the entire Don| Lee network of California; WIP, | Philadelphia; WHK-WCLE, Cleveland; WGR, Buffalo; WCAF, Pittsburgh, and WFER, Baltimore. Major broadcasters turned to Broadcast Music, Inc, an ASCAP competitor they had helped organize, when ASCAP tried to hike its

‘Singing Cop’ Back in Ranks

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1 (U. P)—George Stinson, the 43« year-old “singing cop” who took a three-year leave and became a grand opera tenor, today was back in the uniform of a California highway patrolman. “I guess I'm just a cop at heart,” Mr. Stinson said. “It has been a grand experience and a successful one, but I'm happier here with the people I know, doing the work I like. I plan to keep on with my singing on the side.” Gaetano Merola, director general of the San Francisco Opera Association, discovered Mr. Stinson in 1938 when he heard him singing as he rode his motorcycle on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge. Mr. Stinson studied under Meroia and went to Italy for further study on funds supplied by Mme. Schumann-Heink.

Shelbyville, Tenn., and, after a few days in the South, where he was hospitably treated, was sent to Wilmington, N. C, took a boat to Bermuda and from there went to Canada and settled at Windsor, Ontario, across the river from Detroit. But he was an irrepressible gentleman, and did not gracefully retire to planting petunias. Instead, he made it known he was a candidate for Governor of Ohio, was nominated by the Peace Democrats and, though he had to carry on a mail-order campaign from Canada, he polled a sizeable vote— not enough, however. Still that was not the end. Suddenly one day, a few months later, in June, 1864, he appeared before a Democraic convention at Hamilton, O, to deliver a speech, rally his followers about him and proceed under a hilarious, triumphal escort back to his home in Dayton. But Gettysburg had come meanwhile, and the slow disintegration of the Confederacy. President Lincoln now did not bother about the Copperhead leader, not even when Vallandigham called him “King Lincoln” and publicly spat on famous General Order No. 38 under which the Ohio dissenter and many others of his ilk had been arrested. Vallandigham went on a public speaking rampage—and he was good at it—concluding his campaign against the President and the war with street meetings in Chicago. He marched into the Democratic convention of 1864 and put through a resolution declaring the war a failure and demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities, which it was admitted damaged the party’s cause in that critical year. Still at it, he pleaded in January Wh
