The work is being directed by Prof. Earl V. Moore of the music school, who is serving as national director of the WPA music program during his semester leave-of-absence. First statistics indicate that a to- tal of 7,732 American compositions has been performed under the direc- tion of the project from its incep- tion up to March 1. The output of 2,258 native or resident composers include compositions stemming from colonial and Revolutionary days, but the majority are by living composers. In his report Professor Moore has revealed that 1,297 composers, nearly 60 per cent, whose works were in- troduced by the project, are at work today, and emphasized that the pol- icy of encouraging the American composer "will be in no way abated."
