Maddy's Fight3 With Petrilo Nears Climax AFM To Conduct Private Hearing Climaxing the three and one-half year old personal fight of Prof. Jos- eph E Maddy, founder and director of Interlochen, against James C. Pe-1 trillo, AFM president, a private hear- ing will be conducted by the National1 Executive Board of the musicians' union today in Chicago. To Answer Charges Dr. Maddy, professor of radio music instruction at the University, was ordered last month to appearI before the board to answer chargest that he taught music to children atI the National Music Camp in July andI August, 1945 and that in so doing he was guilty of acts detrimental to the American Federation of Musicians.1 A member of the A.F.M. for 371 years, Dr. Maddy has for the past 30 years devoted his time almost ex- clusively to the teaching of music to children. His fight against the re- strictive bans and edicts interfering with the rights of educators to teach and of children to study music be- gan in July, 1941. When Paul White-1 man and his orchestra offered to do- nate their services in a benefit con- cert for the Camp debt, Mr. Petrillo required th6 Camp to pay three times the union scale to the orchestra, in addition to their regular pay. Broadcasts Stopped In July, 1942, he stopped a 12 year series of non-commercial radio pro- grams from Interlochen on the claim that these broadcasts were competing with union musicians. This ban af- fected all school bands and orches- tras in this country. The climax of this and similar bans, in addition to Dr. Maddy's tes- timonies in Congress, came one year ago when the Executive Board placed Interlochen on its National Unfair List and prohibited union members from teaching there. Two new anti-racketeering bills, aimed at halting the czaristic tactics of Petrillo, have been introduced in the House of Representatives. In addition to Dr. Maddy's hearing in which he will be supported by Carl E. Shaffer, secretary of the Rich- mond, Ind. AFM local, Petrillo's lat- est ban on foreign music broadcasts has acted as a spur to action on these bills in Congress.

Last year 43 persons in Washtenaw County benfited from contributions made during' the campaign. It is hoped, Miss Virginia Schumacher, chairman of the Washtenaw County drive, said, that donations made dur- ing the rest of the month will match the $18,000 raised in 1945. Half the dimes given during this thirteenth annual drive will stay in Washtenaw County to treat those afflicted with polio, the other half being sent to the National Foundation where the money will be used in re- search work.

The conferees are now only 36-cents-a-day apart. On the wage rate, the union, which at first asked a $2-a-day increase, dropped to $1.56 and the corporation offered $1.20. The new strike deadline is 12:01 a.m. Monday.

However, Senator Ferguson, (Rep- Mich.) Said he had a "hunch there won't be any labor legislation."
