that does not throb with the live i'm
pulses of the radio songs. You can
get speeches on the phonoEraph, but
by no means with the variety and
timeliness of those which are heard
any day on the radio.
Advantages of Radio.
You can get market quotations in
your newspapers, but not as quickly
and as hot off the griddle" as you
can with radio. You can get weather
reports by other means than radio,
but they cannot be as accurate and
as timely. You can listen to plays
and to comedians. to public men. and
to worldrenowned singers and musi-
clans, but not as easily and with the
comfort which is made possible by the
little box and the turning of u dial.
There is romance and utility in
radio. It's usefulness to every class
of individual wherever he be located
and whatever be his condition is a
story of thrilling episodes.

radio possible little need he said here
That story has been told and retoId

am going to outline what radio is
now doing. So that you may think of

Radio Attracts Interest.
Try to conceive the interest aroused
In the people of country such as
ours when a radio show in which its
products are displayed will attract a
crowd of $4,000 persons, as was the
case In the radio worlds fair held
in New York City last Fall.
1t was not SO long ago that most
of the prophets claimed that radio
was fad; a thing that would hold
the interest of the public for a short
time, but would soon be relegated to
the graveyard of public fancies. to
keep company with bustIes and Nah
Jong pieces.
Today radio has claimed it's rightful
niche in the general scheme of things
and bids fair to assume proportions
undreamed of five years ago A house
without u radio is fast becoming as
obsolete as an apartment without

The reason for this is easily seen in
the fact that radio supplies a need

WHAT RADIO HAS DONE.

We are often given to speculating
on the future of radio, trying to i'm
agine the position it will hold and
the influence it will WELD five, ten
or hundred years from now. Many
think of it as an infant which has not
vet discarded it's diapers for real man
sized pants. There are many who
would be surprised to find that radio
is now performing a real big job in
the general scheme of things and
that while most people think of it as
a means of entertainment, assoclat1ng
it merely with jazz orchestras and
funny comedians, that radio is doing
much more than that.
Radio stands practically alone as a
dominating factor in the transmission
of intelligence to a mass, Immediately.
Think Of the speed with which a
people spreading out over thousands
of square miles can be reached and
informed of danger or given vital in
formation at moments notice.
Think of the proportions and pos
sible future of an industry which in
the short space of four years has
grown to point in industrial i'm
portance that the value of it's products
is twice that Of the sporting goods
Industry: twice that of the rug and
carpet industry: cne-third OF furniture

New Lineup of Broadcast

Follow Victor Co. Deal.

new alignment of broadcastinG

appeared likely today. following the
announcement of manufacturing
agreement reached between the Vic
tor Talking Machine Co. and the
Radio Corporation of America. Under
type of radio receiver will be in
stalled in the Victor phonograph and
in turn the Victor company will pro-
mote broadcasting.
Rival Tie-up Probable.
1t is learned that a tie-up of Radio
Corporation General Electric and
Westinghouse stations is being con
sidered to supplant the chain headed
by WEAF of the American Telephone
& Telegraph Co.
Under this arrangement WIZ would
provide the New York studio and
would then relay the concerts To WRC
at Washington, WGY at Schenectady.
WBZ at Springfield. KDKA at Pitts
burgh and KYW at Csicago. BY using
a short wave KDkA could rebroadcast
to kFKN at Hastings and from there
again relay to kGO at Oakland and
KOA at Denver.
Several other stations are expert
c1enting with rebroadcasts both from
short and long waves and probably
could make arrangements to pick up
the programs and broadcast them in
their immediate vicinity.
The new tie-up is the result of nego-
tiations carried on between j. G..
Paine. counsel for the Victor com
pany, and David Sarnoff, wise presi-
dent and genera manager Of the
Radio Corporation. A similar agree.
ment between the Brunswick Co. and
the Radio Corporation was made some

When there is sufficient space in
