POPULAR SONGS
Sir,-A little while ago you issued a copy of "God Defend New ,Zealand," words and music, and sent it out to the public in one of your weekly issues of The Listener. Myself and very many people here have greatly appreciated this action, and we would consider it a very great favour indeed if it were possible for you to publish further public favourites, such as "There Will Always Be An England," "The Army, Navy, and the Air Force," etc. This would bring popular numbers into all homes, and particularly into the schools, and I am sure all householders would be thankful to you.

(We thank our correspondent for this compliment, and should like to earn another from him. But (1) there is a paper shortage; (2) the copyright of most popular songs belongs to the publishers; (3) music is expensive to copy and print.-Ed.).
