down. They are ~part of a mural on the wall of the congressional commit- - tee on interstate and foreign commerce. The motto 1s, “On earth, peace.” That ain't the way I heard it. The lawmakers were investigating James Caesar Petrillo and his musicians’ union. They sat under® their angels. And what they" called James Caesar was enough to make those ladies blush, James Caesar wasn't there.

Mr: Perillo

That was in connection with phonograph recordings. Now he is ignoring cohgress. “In all my .18 years of service as a congressman,” said Rep. Charles A. Wolverton of New Jersey, “I have never seen

“I guess Mr. Petrillo is doing the same thing to congress that he did to the President of the United. States,” added Repel Clarence J. Brown of Ohio. “I think Mr. Petrillo has asked for it. It is about time that congress let him have it.”

It has not been answered yet.”

PROF. JOSEPH E. MADDY, the -gray-haired president of the national music camp at Interlochen, sald James Caesar was a boss and a boaster. He also called Petrillo an intimidator and a despotic dictator. Not only" that, he sald, James Caesar is a pernicious conspirator, an autocrat, an insidious person, And, Maddy continued, Petrillo is a czar, a tyrant, an extortion racketeer—and a major menace. That's what the congressional angels heard, if they were listening. Next move is James Caesar’s. “On earth peace,” the. sign says. .
