BRASS BANDS
NEW ZEALAND ORGANIZATION PROPOSED. ’ (Per United Press Association.) Wellington, May 24. The North Island Brass Bands’ Association is inviting the South Island Association to agree to the establishment of one controlling body with offices in Wellington. The idea behind the movement is primarily to enable the controlling body to build up resources for the purposes of assisting and furthering band music in the Dominion. Mr H. D. Bennett, president of the North Island Association, said to-day that there were not enough bands in New Zealand to justify divided control .as at present. It was expected that after a year' or so the controlling body would be able to engage the services of professionals to vist in turn all the bands in the country, an advantage quite out of the question under present conditions.
