NEW YORK, July 28 (U. P.).— James C. Petrillo, president of the American Federation of Musicians, announced today that he will send well-known symphony orchestras on road tours “because President Roosevelt is very much concerned” about the dearth of first class music for small towns.

Petrillo said he conferred at the White House on the matter last December and that the federation appropriated $250,000 for full expenses. He said another $250,000 had been authorized if needed.

Asked if the president said anything about the recording ban at the December conference, Petrillo answered: “He didn't say a word, not one word about it—but I sure thought beforehand I was going to hear about it.” Petrillo said the concerts would be free.
