what radio does; the other tells
where you can get it.

of the old -timers of radio. both
by his early commercial expert

years of hard labor as expert

ment in Washington, and hence
he is well qualified to speak OF
the progress of radio during the
past twenty years. The skele'
ton organization of this huge
array of radio applications is
based on the educational exhibit
which the Radio Corporation has
been presenting in various cities
throughout the I1united S'a oS 'r

BIRDS OF A FEATHER

In the recent visit of President
Coolidge to Chicago to be the guest
of the meat packers and to visit the
stock show is seen a characteristic
lending of the executive to the pur-
poses of the Millionaire lobby. The
packers are trying to get congress to
permit the modification or withdraw
al of the consent decree under which
they gave up-at least nominally-
their control of scores of sidelines in
the field of food supply and by-pro-
ducts, in 1920, as the price Of their
immunity from antitrust prosecution
which was then pending Having es-
capped Jail by paying a business fine,
they now demand their money back.

NEEDLESS PRODUCTION COST
REACHES UNTOLD FIGURES

pOrtation, such as the lack of suffi-
cient terminals; wastes caused by eX-
cessive variations in products; wastes
in materials arising from lack of eff
ficient processes; wastes by fire and
wastes in human lives"
Secretary Hoover declared that the
elimination of waste, and that regula-
tions and laws have little effect on
these fundamental things.
Declaring that "the greatest waste
is periodic slackening of production
and resultant unemployment" Mr..
Hoover briefly reviewed the work of
the national conference on unemploy-
ment in 1921. A committee of that
conference studied seasonal operation
in the construction industries. at
was shown cOnclusively that custom,
not climate, is mainly responsible for
the seasonal ups and downs in build
ing and that these evils are largely
unnecessary and can be eliminated" )"
Mr. Hoover said.
"The elimination of these wastes
would strengthen the entire business
structure, for construction is the bal
ance wheel of American industry.
The value of yearly construction in
the United States is more than $5,-
|000,000,000. If building falls off
there is always a slackening in many
other lines of industry, resulting in
unemployment, decreased purchasing
power of employees and further de-
preston"
The climax of these stupendous
wastes is seen in the waste Of human
life, which Secretary Hoover declares
is "the most challenging Of all
wastes"
''There is no more conspicuous ex-
ample of that wastage in our Ameri-
can life than in the mounting curse
OF traffic accidents" he said
"The gravity Of the situation is we'll
Illustrated by the fact that even as |
write, the committee on statistics has
brought in a report on these acci-
dents in 1923 which indicate that
these deaths in 1923 were not less
than 22,600, the number of people in
jured were not less than 678,000, and
the total economic loss not less than
$600,000,000.

High Court Tests
The PardOning Power

Washington - Has the president
power to pardon a man sentenced to
jail by judge for criminal con-
tempt.
This question is before the United
States supreme court. The issue is
considered so important that Attor-
ney General Stone appeared as friend
Of the court to defend the president
Other members Of the departmnt Of
justice deny the presidents power.
This makes the unique spectacle of
the department of justice being on
both sides of case.
The question revolves around the
pardon of Philip Grossman, former
Chicago saloon keeper, who was found
guilty in federal court Of violating
an injunction restraining him from
engaging in the sale Of beverages for
one year. He was fined $1,000 and
sentenced to jail for contempt of
court. Last December, President Cool
idge committed the sentence to the
payment of the fine. The federal
court questioned the presidents au-
thority and ordered Grossman recon-
mitted to Jail, where he remained un-
til released on a writ Of habeas cor
pus.
The supreme court is now consider
ing whether his release shall be per-
If Grossman is released it
means that the president may pardon
in criminal contempt cases.

Hoover in his annual report.
"We have the highest ingenuity
and efficiency in the operation OF our
industry and commerce of any nation
in the world, yet our economic ma
chine is far from perfect" Mr.. Hoov-
er said.
"Wastes are legion. There are
wastes which arise from widespread
unemployment during depressions,
and from speculation and overpro-
duction in booms; wastes attributable
to labor turnover and the stress of
labor conflicts; wastes due to the in
termittent and seasonal production, as
in the coal and construction indus
tries; vast wastes from structures In
commerce due to inadequate trans
