Dramatic and musical works are not mentioned in the manufacturing and affidavit provisions (secs. 15, 16, 17) which are specifically confined to "the printed book or periodical specified in section 5, subsections (a) and (b)," while dramatic and musical compositions are classified in subsections (d) and (e). It might be alleged that dramatic or musical compositions in book form or produced as books from type or by lithographic or photo-engraving process should be classified as books and subjected to the manufacturing provisions; but this is distinctly not the letter of the law. This exception was specifically upheld for music in the case of Littleton _v._ Ditson in 1894, by Judge Colt in the U. S. Circuit Court in Massachusetts, where the defense that there was no copyright in certain songs because the music sheets were not from type set or plates made within the United States, was overruled; and for drama in Hervieu _v._ Ogilvie in 1909, where in the U. S. Circuit Court in New York, Judge Martin cited with approval Judge Colt's decision. This ruling was also embodied in Treasury decision No. 21012 of April 17, 1899, permitting the importation of musical compositions copyrighted in the United States and printed abroad. {Sidenote: British colonial practice} The Australian law, on the contrary, specifically includes under the definition of "book," a "dramatic work" and a "musical work," and thus subjects both to the manufacturing clause. Printing and publishing are required in Canada ("within one month after publication or production elsewhere") and in Newfoundland to obtain copyright under the local acts; and as drama is not mentioned but included generically as a book or literary composition, and music is specifically included, both dramatic and musical compositions must be manufactured within each country to obtain local, as distinguished from British or Imperial, protection. {Sidenote: Entry under proper class} {Sidenote: Applications and certificates}
