RADIO
STATIONS ARE
PREDICTED
Fewer and Stronger Sets
For Future, Says
Engineer.

"I'm frank to say that 1 don't know
what broadcasting is coming to-" says
s. f. Baldwin, in charge of broadcast
ing at W'TAM.
There are hundreds better qualified
than / to answer that question and I
think their answers would be practi-
cally the same thing-I don't know"
I'VE can make some guesses based
on conditions at the present time. For
instance, there is little doubt that
within comparatively short time the
really big broadcasters will be using
30 kilowatts or moro and the 5-kilo-
watt station which is at present our
so-called super-power transmitter will
be classed as small station.
'There will also be necessarily but
a comparatively small number of
broadcasters. Necessarily, because the
cost Of installing and maintaining a
80 or 1OO-kilowatt transmitter will be
prohibitive to all hut a very few.
AT the recent eadio conference q
number of things were brought out
which might indicate where broadcast
ing is going. 1t was practically agreed
that increased power was a necessary
step in the progress Of broadcasting.
These are things we'll known in
broadcasting. To 20 further and step
into tire realm of further prophecy
would be foolish. No one knows"

D|[AT0RY FANS
WARNED Of
LONG WAIT
Those Who Hold Off For
Bargains Miss Much,
Says Maker.

In every industry, especially in one

10 always tagging portion of the pub
lie, eager to enjoy the pleasures of the
art but loath to spend their good
money on it lest by the middle of next
week their money will buy twice as
much as il does today.
During the recent radio show in
Chicago group of radio leaders were
discussing this condition. Edward FL.
Jevett, president of the Jewett Radio
and Photograph Company. voiced an
opinion which was pretty nearly
unanimous among the conversing
group.
Radio fans are getting more for
their money today than they ever did
before" be said. Undoubtedly, as
time goes on and radio production in
crsases, they will get even more. But
il viii not be tomorrow or the next
day. And all the time they are wait
ing for the bargain-miracle, they are
foregoing the pleasures radio affords.
You can't have your cake and eat

money will buy something twice as
good as it does now will have TO wait
n good, long time. And meanwhile
they are missing q much priced pleas

Costs 90 down as production goes
Up and that is a gradual, not a sud-
den process. Luckily, most of the
public does not belong in the tagging
category; if they did. there would be
no increased production and conse-
qusntly no lowering in COSTS
The best four months of the year to
enjoy radio are ahead of us, Mr.. jew

POPE ADMONISHES
POLITICAL PRIESTS

BERLIN, Dec. 19-The Pope has
written to the bishop of Lithuania, ac-
cording to. dispatches received here,
asking that those Catholic priests who
are active in politics resign as clergy
men, on the grounds that their po-
litical activity tends to compromise
the church and ALLEVIATE the conf
dence of the people. The request is
said to have caused a great stir in
Lithuania.

There are approximately sixteen

WORD 'RADIOCASTING
is PUT ON SHELF

At recent meeting of the National
Association Of Brdoscasters, it was
agreed that the word "broadcasting"
would be used in preference to the
word "radiocasting." This action was
taken after it had been explained that
the Association Manufacturers Of
Electrical Supplies had adopted the
word 'radiocasting," and the matter
was presented to prevent any con-
fusion.

Ford Organization
Now EMPLOYS $4,000

The Ford organiza ton is now en-
ploying more than 161, 900 persons in
it's various activities throughout the
United States. according to the latest
employment figures. This is a record
for the industry.
The largest increase has come, as
might be expected, in the Detroit
area where the Ford Motor Com
pany's big manufacturing plants are
located. Here close to 14,500 have
been added to the employment list
since March /.
The big majority of workers are
employed. of course, at the Highland
Park and River Rouge plants. The
River Rouge now has $500 on its
payroll-a record for that plant.
Highland Park still leads all plants
with $4,000 employees, though this
number is considerably lower than
the peak employment record Of 1928.
which was before the transfer Of sew
eral thousand men to River Rouge
when the motor assembly and crank
shaft departments were moved there.
Along with the steady increase in
employment in Detroit. due to greater
production demands, there have been
corresponding increases at domestic
assembly plants until the employ
ment rolls for these now show close
to $4,000 employees.
