Petrillo Wins Battle Over Canned Music for Disabled Vets
CHICAGO July 23 James C Petrillo won a battle against canned music today without firing a shot. The union boss pressed for employment of AFM members over nonunion disc jockeys and threatened to walk out if recorded music played where his members worked. Boom Electrical and Amplifier Co. in New York supplied Muzak services in 54 major cities but switched off when Petrillo acted. Boom’s six severely disabled veterans, all AFI members, are paid $54 weekly, while Petrillo seeks jobs for his union at a weekly high.

Washington July 23 The 52 20 unemployment program for World War II veterans winds down as thousands remain on its rolls.
