ADAMS TO TRANSMIT NAVY DAY MESSAGE

Secretary to Send Word, to Ama-

teurs as Pratt Pays Respects to

U. S. Merchant Marine.

Secretary Adams will transmit mes-

sages to radio amateurs of the United States and Admiral William V. Pratt, chief of naval operations, will send one to the American merchant ma- rine. as a special feature of Navy day, Thursday.

The cabinet officer's greetings will be transmitted from Station NAA, the Washington naval radio station, and from Station NPG, the naval station at San Francisco, Calif. While both messages will be substantially the same, they will vary in phrasing.

Prom NAA station the broadcast will go out at 8:30 p.m., while the San Francisco broadcast will be at 7:05 p.m.. Pacific Coast time. The Navy Department announced that broadcasts will be transmitted at approximately 15 words a minute, preceded by a five- minute continuous "CQ" call.

Secretary Adams will send formal let- ters of appreciation to the 25 amateurs submitting the best copies of the broadcast. The American Radio Relay League is co-operating with the Navy Department in the special feature. Last year's broadcast brought more than 400 amateurs' letters.

Admiral Pratt's broadcast will be sent out from a number of naval stations in this country, in the West Indies and in Hawaii, as well as Cavité, P. I., and Tutuila. Samoa, and will contain a message of appreciation of the co- operation given to the American Navy during the past year. This will be transmitted at the end of two regular weather and hydrographie broadcasts on Thursday.

CURTIS SUPPORTS JENSEN FOR PLACE

Vice President Urges Engineer In-

structor as Successor to Gen.

Baltzman.

Vice President Curtis is urging the appointment of J. C. Jensen, engineer- ing instructor of Nebraska Wesleyan University and director of its broad- casting station, as Federal radio com- missioner to succeed Maj. Gen. Charles McK. Saltzman. retired, who resigned as chairman last July.

It was learned yesterday in official circles that the Vice President had sent to the White House a letter en- dorsing Mr. Jensen, who also is a prac- tical engineer. He is one of nearly a dozen candidates for the post and also has been endorsed by Senator Gerald P. Nye, of North Dakota, and by the educational radio groups combatting commercial radio.

It is generally believed that President Hoover does not intend to fill the va- cancy until after the elections, or per- haps not at all.

WHAT φ far cry the radio showmanship of today from less than a dozen

a i_ yeara a&°- when artists

«vJÎ agifuand concert platform ll, .wlth such askance that

they seldom would "condescend" to perfom before the microphone. When they did broadcast—and It

!fr.fec* Λ; w great Caruso was

one of the earliest to do so, good- naturedly singing for Dr. Lee De- Forest in one of his early experi-

broadcasts from the Met-

™P£lltan Opera House—it was without pay, usually as a favor to some friend interested in the new-fangled toy called "wireless."

Today there is scarcely a per- "i"1" ,of any Importance who

ea?,erly «eize the oppor- Aίίΐι fh

All radio engagements.

rartlJ salaries of the top-fiotch main» ^'sts now rival in their magnitude those paid to stage concert and screen luminaries. In

othpr «roiHlng# s2 heavlly from the otner fields of showmanship, radio has boosted the income of any number of such artists to tremen- dous proportions.

Except for Fritz Kreisler, who has never been heard on the radio anywhere, and Ignace Jan Pader- ewski, who has eschewed all radio ever since an unfortunate experi- ence with it in England six or eight years ago, there is hardly a single notable in the concert field who has not filled radio en- gagements. Except for a few stars like Leon Errol, Joe Cook and the Four Marx Brothers most or the stars of musical comedy have been heard more or less ret?- ularly it is needless to recount the other stage and screen stars who have been heard on the air: their number is legion.

The current news of radio heralds the addition of A1 Jolson to the long list of stellar musical comedy performers attracted to radio; also the return of Eddie Cantor to the air. Jolson, who begins a series of Friday night appearances on Ν. B. C„ begin- ning November 18, is staging what maybe called a radio comeback. His first important radio appear- ance several years ago was a nop only because he essayed to tell an off-color joke-some- thing that absolutely will not be tolerated by a great portion of the radio audience. Can- tor, who returns to N. B. C. October 30 for an indefinite series of Sunday night engagements, was the sensation of last year's radio and returns after a nine- month lapse during which he made another movie in Holly- wood.

With Ed Wynn still winning the plaudits of the unseen audience, and with A1 Jolson and Eddi2 Cantor back on the air, radio can

point with pride to the fact that when it celebrates its twelfth American birthday November 2 it can boast the biggest headliners m musical comedy on its roster.

That their radio engagements are tremendously important to them is evidenced by the salaries these stars command. Ed Wynn is supposed to get $5,000 to $6,000 for each radio appearance. A1 Jolson's contract is'said to call for $5.000 per performance. Eddie Cantor gets $2.500 a week. Of course, these stars earn even more otherwise. Cantor's income from the movies and stage being re-

ported at $10,000 a week, A1 Jol-

son's at $15,000 and Ed Wynn's at $7,500.

The highest paid regular per- formers on the air are supposed to be Amos 'n' Andy, who get $7,500 a week for their act, and Kate Smith, who also gets $7,500 a week, according to Variety, the periodical of the show business. They appear nightly except Sun- days. Other Individual stars and their reported weekly radio sal- aries are: Morton Dovney, $4,500; Rudy Vallee, $4,500; Bing Crosby, $3,000; Gene and Glenn, $5,000; Burns and Allen, $'J,000; Russ Co- lumbo, $2,000; the Boswell Sisters, $3,000; Mildred Bailey, $2,500; Little Jack Little, $2,500; Julia Sanderson and Frank Crumit, $3,500; the Mills Brothers, $3,600; the Revellers. $3,500.

The other "big money" acts, ac- cording to Variety, are the or- chestras with ncted leader' Paul Whiteman and his bana, Ιοί ex- ample, get $8,500 a week; Ben Bernie and orchestra, $6,500; Guy Lombardo, $6,000; Cab Calloway, $5,000; Duke Ellington, $5,000; Vincent Lopez, $4,500.

These figures obtain, of course, only when these stars or groups are commercially sponsored. When they appear on non-commercial periods it is for lesser sums. Be- fore radio some of these stars and groups were practically unknown and certainly not in the four- figure class. The phenomenal success attained by many of them is directly attributable to radio. The Mills Brothers, for example, were street performers, working their way East from their home town of Piqua, Ohio, in a dilapi- dated flivver, when they secured a radio audition that won them a

sustaining engagement at $100 a week for the four of them, then a sponsored engagement at $1,000 a week, and finally their present salary.

* * * *

NO longer will the broadcasters be able to pass on to the poli-

ticians the 3 per cent surcharge on "time sales," which many radio stations have added to their card rates in order to meet the de- ; mands of the music copyright owners for a percentage of radio's revenues as royalties for the use of copyrighted music.

E. Claude Mills, general man- ager of the American Societv of Composers, Authors and Publish- ers, has notified all stations that political addresses are exempt from the royalty fee. Broadcast- ! ers after September 1, last, under

the recent arrangement with the copyright owners, must pay 3 per cent the first year, 4 per cent the second year and 5 per cent the third year on their net receipts from the sale of sponsored time, whether or not copyrighted music is used.

Though the broadcasters fought this percentage royalty basis bit- terly, they were ultimately de- feated by the copyright owners, who control the bulk of the music performed on the radio and who apparently had the law on their side. Not only must radio pay the percentage royalties, but there is also a flat royalty charged for non-commercial sustaining pro- grams.

Adjustments in these sustaining royalties are still being made with individual broadcasters, accord- ing to their capacity to pay. The only exemption applicable to all stations, however, is the one re- lating to political broadcasts. Under the old scheme the per- centage levy would have applied to those as well as other pro- grams, regardless whether they used copyrighted music. The new basis was obviously put into effect in order to eliminate criticism of the copyright owners by poli- ticians, who might later win public office.
