Citizens Of The Capital City Try To Find A Pretty Ditty
WOLFSON'S 743 Mass.
Washington—(U.P.)—There's "Maryland, My Maryland," "Carry Me Back To Old Virginny," "Deep in the Heart of Texas," "California, Here I Come." Also songs that puff the ego of the rest of the states.
The situation is going to be corrected, maybe. A campaign is under way to get a collection of notes—a tune the capital can call its very own.
For all of this, we can thank a man named James H. Simon, who dreamed up the idea. He is president of the Simon Distributing corporation and has talked the Motorola people into stacking up $2,500 in prizes—$1,000 first prize for the embryo Francis Scott Key who can write the best music, with words to match.
But what do the harried, voteless citizens of Washington, D.C. have in the way of a song?
Simon does a bit of traveling. When he attends a banquet the folks from Iowa stand up in the back of the hall and sing "Out Where the Tall Corn Grows."
"It's embarrassing," he said. "They have cute little songs about the Carolinas. Also one about Ohio, Wisconsin, and all of the other states. And then they call on the delegation from Washington, D.C.
"I have become quite used to taxation without representation, but I am getting quite tired of posing as an adopted son and using Maryland and Virginia as my excuse for being
born in Washington. Why don't we have a song representing the nation's capital?"
If we do, let's make it a horn-honker. Something that can't be traced to some old tune that has been in the public domain, since the days of the old Romans.
Some wags already are in the swing with suggestions for a title.
One gentleman, who identified himself only as "a Democrat," hinted that the way things are going we might just as well forget the whole thing and adopt the "Missouri Welts."
Another, who might have been a Republican, thought it would be a good idea to confiscate the rights to "Beautiful Ohio." He probably had Senator Taft in mind.
Other titles suggested include "I'm Just a Business Man and I Want to Get Some Rest," "Capital Gains," and so forth.
Appropriations to the Bureau of Reclamation and the Army Engineers for work in the Missouri River basin totaled more than $1,000,000,- 000 dollars since 1945.
