RADIO FANS DECLARE -
SUCCESS IS NO DOUBT
Say No One Can Estimate Number
Of Newspapers Running Serv-
ice to Advantage.

The report Of the recent meeting OF
the New York Associated Dailies at
Kaaterskill that IL was almost the
unanimous sentiment that the radio
has not yet reached a point at which
1t is of advantage, and that most
newspapers are going too far in de-
voting extensive space to it," is chal-
lenged by by many radio fans and
publishers.
What the basis of the opinion was,
is hard for radio experts in Washing
ton to see. as there are operating to-
day. fifty-six broadcasting stations
owned by newspapers. three of which
ara in New York state.
No one can estimate the number of
papers running radio departments
correctly. but it is safe to say that
practically two out of every three
large dailies are doing so, and in some
cities all papers carry considerable
radio news. subscribing to several
general and technical services
That 1t pays. is obvious by a glance
at the advertisements, and an appre-
citation of the keenness of the compe-
tition in such cities as Detroit, At
lanta, Salt Lake and New Orleans,
where practically all dailies vie with
one another for both news space and
broadcasting excellence.
To date none of the fifty-six broad
casting dailies has cancelled its
license and new papers are taking
out licenses at the rate of about two
each week.
In Washington, all five daily papers
use radio news services of one type
