IT. H. deCoudres President
 Chamber of Commerce

1 ont several obstacles that # was nee essarv Go overcome. T he Chamber or Commerce played a prominent part in bringing the new industries t0 Put nam. There have been several other attempts made by personal visitation of prospects to our city and by letter which have not proved as sueeessf ul. However, an attempt is made m all instances to let manufacturers know that Putnam will welcome them.
 The usual number of inquiries have been received and answered. he Chamber is besought for. many kinds of information. advice and often free advertising. All such communications are answered whether favora5iy or un- favorably. Many of them are really impositions, as for instance when mail order houses wish to get line on prospective customers in Putnam. This would take business from our To- cal stores and is not encouraged. How ever, there is a persistence in this sort of endeavor or the part Of outside business that Is astonishing.
 Matters concerning highways have been taken Up with the State Highway Department. concerning public parks with .he State Park Commission Let ts-rs and telerrams have now and then been sent fo senators and congressman when measure warrants the support of the Chamber There is seldom a week passes bus what there is some detail taken care of which never ap- hears to the members or the public. but is all along the line of endeayor for which the Chamber stands.
 Free Counsel
 The Chamber is an open forum, and citizens are free to seek counsel, ad- vice or support if they will but make their desires known. Even SO small a matter as the stopping of the town clock was considered by the directors. Nothing that is of the least public concern Is too small or Co unim- portant to be recognized by the Cham Der of Commerce. The trouble often is, and has been, that the fact that someone wants assistance is only heard on the outside. The matter k not brought to the attention of the Chamber. Members of the board of directors may hear that some person or group of persons has been dissatis- fled with something wherein the Cham Der ot Commerce might have been Of assistance Instead of bringing the matter before the directors these in- dividuals stand aloof and then say. The Chamber of Commerce doesn't do anything. where. at word. the Chamber would have been but too glad Co assist.
 The monthly bulletins have been omitted for some months due to lack of funds
 During the year the question of an aviation field was taken up hy the di- reetefs at the instance of Governor Charles A Templeton What became of this effort the feeords do not dis close.

RADIO FADING PR0VESAPR0BLEM
High Power Not a Remedy for
 Trouble

Washington, Sept 1 R)-Fading. the bugaboo of radio, which scien- lists have not as yet been able to ex- plain, cannot be eliminated through use of super-power In broadcasting. in the view of experts of the bureau of standards.
 Analysis by them of the effects of the use of super-power. made from the recent tests at Schenectady, N. r., when station WGY used 50.000 watts in broadcasting, has shown that radio signals continue to vary in intensity despite the tremendous increase in power.
 Tt Is therefore to be definitely stated" the bureaus said today in a statement. that high power Is not the solution of fading"
 The tests have further shown that Use of high power does not inter- fere with the effectiveness of smaller stations, and signals of overwhelm- Ing intensity have resulted from its use.
 The area over which a radio sta- ton can give satisfactory service, in the view of the radio engineers, is quite limited, though no specific linn 1t was mentioned for use of a given amount of power.
