As source Of entertainment and

radio Is proving wonderful boon to

that the radio will ever supplant wires

General John J. Carly, vice presi-

velopment and research, has conclud-
ed, after thorough research into the
possibility Of radio suppianting the
telephone, that:

wires are not adapted. Fortunately,
those services comprise but a small
