NEW YORK—Billy was return ed the winner this this week in his djspute with the National Re cord Co. over the disc firms re fusal to pay him for eight sides he recorded for the National label in Hollywood last April. The decision in Eckstine’s favor was handed down by Riccardi or of the executive board of the American Federation of Musici ans, who ruled that the National firm must pay Eckstine for the eight sides he originally waxed and that Eckstine does not have to re-record the selections in questions. Eckstine, who is now recording exclusively for the MGM label, made the eight sides for National to conclude his contract committ- ; ments to that company. Members of he latter firm, who resented Eckstine’s switch to MGM, reject ed all eight masters in spite of the fact that many neutral, observers hailed them as amng the finest wax the Bronze Balladier with the Goldep Voice has ever cut. In handing down the decision in Eckstine’s favor, Riccardi or dered immediate paymert of S6000 to the singing star for the eight masters at the contact figure of $750 each. Billy’s Initial release on the MGM label, pairing two new pop ballads, “This Is The Inside Story’’ ' and “Just An Old Love Of Mine ’, is currently one of the three big gest sellers for the company, with ‘ This Is The Inside Story’' break ing for a real smash h|t via the nation’s jukeboxes.

Randall At Ninth Annual Meeting of the Nebraska Committee, June 5th Ladies and Gentlemen: This is the eighth consecutive time that I have appeared before you at an annual meeting to give an account of my stewardship, and to report to you on the past activities and the future hopes of myself as your state director and the Nebraska Committee, which ij just as anxious and as much com. cerned about the public welfare and the future of your business as I am. The brewing industry, you know consists of three elements or de partments, namely, the manu facturer or brewer, the wholesaler or distributor, and the retailer or tavern operator. All have their ( duitjes and responsibilities, and all are affected by bad conduct and benefited by good conduct of any or all of these elements in the in dustry. The brewer has the most at stake because of his tremedous in vestment and because he cannot go and out of business as it suit nis pleasure convenience as can the wholesaler or the retailer. The wholsaler, too has a sjzeable in vestment as a rule and he is in terested in all phrases of the in dustry because he too makes his plans and expects and hopes to permanently continue in the busi. ness. The retailer'is the most nu erous. Many of them have mod erate investments and many could change from one business lo a. nother without very much loss or dislocation. But the retailer, be cause he comes in contact with the the public, because he deals most directly with the public, and be1 caue he can do more damage and injury to the industry through bad conduct and failure to observe I the laws requirements, is just as important an element in the in. dustry as the brewer and the wholesaler. And,because of the re. I tailer’s peculiar position, he is a person of the greatest concern, not only to the brewer and the whole saler, but to his fellow retailers as well. The alcholic beverage business or traffic in this country has al_ ways been more or less of a pro' blem child, and many changes have taken place from time to time in the last several decades First there was the pre_prohibit_ ion period; second, the prohibit ion period orera; and. third, the present relegalization era. The changes from one to the other have come drastically. The saloon era was swept out trough the adoption of the 18th Amendment National Prohibition ;all of the states but two having ratified the amendment within two or three years from the time of its sub mission by the Congress to the states. The prohibition era lasted only abbout 13 years, and it was swept aside with practically the same unanimity of public opinion. With relegalisation came the necessity for re-enacting liquor control sta tutes. States wQre obliged to create and sep up liquor control administrators or commissions revenue department supervisors, liqquor licensing departments,and and other states and local agen cies. These boards commissions, and agenices were empowered to j issue brewwing, wholesaling and i retailing licenses, new licenses for 1 cause and even without cause under certain circumstances. In practically verey state strict res trictions barred the brewer from having any financial interest in the retailing places. The same res trictions were placed upon the wholesaler. We are deeply concerned with \ the decorum of the patrons and the observance of the rules of social decency, realizing that all these matters are equally in the interest of the retailer, th brew ing industry as a whole, and the public welfare. We always hare and we shall continue to favor those things in connection with the industry, in all of its branches and depart intents, which are a gainst the public interest ar.d which are detrimental to the pub lic welafare. We take pride in fact that this program has been a success, evi dence by the fact that the sporadic movement eight years ago toward radical changes in the 1935 liq uor control statute, and for pro hibition, has completely subsided; evidenced by the further fact that ! the skepticism with which our, program of cooperation with pub- ! lie authorities is generally hailed by the press, by public officials and the public at large as a nec essary and permanently establish ed instrumemtality for better con. duct and better government. Let me say that we applaud every movement in every locality by local governing bodies for the betterment of the beer retailing situation. It is always recognized 1 that the proper handling of the al coholic beverage problem is more difficult in the large centers of population. We have observed with concern the situation in Omaha during the past several years. The Nebraska Committee has always been ready, willing and anxious to serve the local governing bodies in our metropoli tan city, and we are happy to hau« to the local governing body in Omaha and to the Liquor Control been of some ajd recently both Commission in bringing about what this Commission believes to be the greatest step that any large city has taken since re-legalizat ion to matrially improve upon the retailing of alcoholic beverages in that city. And this Committee shall ever stand ready to aid any local community, large or small and the state as a whole, to Im prove upon and to maintain the alcoholic beverage industries with in this state so that the declared purpose of the Act as set forth in Secion 53-1, 118 shall be fully realized and which fs as follows: "The Act shall be 1,'berally con strued to the end that the health, safety and welfare of the people of the State of Nebraska shall be protector, and temperance in the consumption of alcoholic liguors shall be fostered by sound and careful control and regulation of the manufacture, sale and dis tribution of alcoholic liquors”. I feel that T can promise to the people of this state that there will be no recession or laxness in he efforts of the Nebraska Commit tee in its endeavors to make its work a real adjuct to the govern mental machinery enacted for the regulation and control of the sale and consumption of beer within its borders. *< Forgotten Inventor <>Ai
