Gentleman Who H&S The Imposing Dis-A Tin...
GENTLEMAN who h & s the imposing dis-A tinction of calling himself the *
Agent-; General for the British Empire of the Socie & e " des AuteursComposifceurset Editeurs de
Mu-, , : moment sique / has in raised connection a question 5 with which the term is of s of grave the
. ' International Copyright ; Convention . It is quite right that the terms of that convention
should be enforced with the greatest strictness . | But at the same time it is most earnestly to be ,
! hoped that trifling quibbles shall not be allowed ; to bring into contempt the provisions of ar *
i enactmen * - * t that canno t fail to be beneficial . to all authors . These petty squabbles , if they
I are allowed to continue , will do more harm than good to the cause of copyright .
In the interest of the book-world it has been thought a pity that cases of trifling
impor-. tance should come before the courts . Nothing | is more likely to bring the measures of this
j long-sought-for literary right into disrepute or S even contempt than the miserable quarrels of
small musicians and their ; agents . Judge Bayleyin the Westminster County Court on
the 13 t , h inst ., could not do otherwise than give a verdict for the complainant who asked
for the protection of certain French tunes which had been sung or played without
permission in one or two English theatres . The ' small damages awarded , however , showed the
[^ Judge ' s sense of the merits of the special cases , ' and may prevent further straining in
connec-| tion with V JL a good international law —— designed I for the benefit of those who would benefit
