In part: “I was in Washington for the first time the other day in connection with an amendment we’re trying to tack onto the Copyright Bill. It’s with reference to artists and performers getting some kind of recompense for the use of their records for profit on radio and juke boxes, etc….

I’m not active anymore in that field, but it is mighty important to young fellas who are coming along, who have a hit, and don’t get anything out of it.” Accompanied by an unsigned color photo. In fine condition, with usual folds and a few light bends. R&R COA.
