You are fond of music and partic-

rhythm. Your nature is affection-

You are inclined to be somewhat of
a flirt, but eventually you will find
some one whom you will choose and
for whom you will hve a lasting

You are easygoing in disposition
and pleasantly adaptable to ‘hang-

AUSTIN AMERICAN. AUSTIN. TEXAS. FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 6, 1923.
RADIO.
Every owner of a radio receiv-
ing set should pay a tax or license
of, say, 45, to cover the cost of
broadcasting concerts and to com-
peneate music publishers and song
writers whose work is used. You
don't agree. Neither do we Tne
suggestion comes from J. C. Ros-
enthal. representing the music in-
dustry. which finds its income re-
duced by radio. The sales of sheet
music and phonograph records are
falling off heavily.
Rosenthal would have the na-
tional government collect the tax.
That would put radio in politics
and probably make the .concerts]
low grade. The cost of radio
should be footed by makers of]
radio apparatus and by organisa-
tions using broadcasting stations
for advertising purposes. They I
couldn't make better investments. |
Later, radio will be endowed by]
millionaires.
The music industry has grounds]
for complaints. Nine-tenths of)
music broadcast by radio is said |
to be copyrighted
makers must furnish the revenue
or point out the way to get it.
Representative T. K. Irwin of
Dallas must have been heartbroken
when he read in the public prints
that the governor had vetoed his
indeterminate sentence bill. This
would have led to the elease of
704 convicts now confined within
th* walls of ths penitentiary or on
the prison farms. It gave a con-
vict who had a firet elass record
an opportunity to obtain his liberty
and then go out Info the big world
and sin no more. Representative
Irwin is a very large-hearted indi-
vidual He has the milk of human
kindness in his breast. He does not
believe that this1 inscription should
be carved in the stone portals of the
main entrance to th* penitentiary:
"He who enters here leaves hope
behind.” Texas has a constitution
it was made in 1874. According to
the governor and the attorney gen-
eral. th* Irwin bill collided with the
constitution and for thia renson the
governor plunged his veto knife into
its vitals. Regardless of this, Irwin
will never be happy until the con
stitution has been changed and an
indeterminate sentence law enacted
As the penitentiary is running into
debt a million dollars a year, those
who backed th* Irwin bill saw an
opportunity to reuce this to about
$750,000 a year by liberating a third
of the convicts for good behavior in
order that they might wash their
sins away in the pool by th* sie
of th* road called straight. But it
