PROPOSE BIG RADIO
"CHAIN" IN CANADA
National Railways Said to Con-
template Extended System OF
Broadcasting Stations.

A rermanent chain Of broadcast
stations that would be surpa ssed only
nv that headed by WEAF In the
United States and the British govern
ment chain in England is understood
to be contemplated by the Canadian
National Railways. which operates
many Of the leading stations In Can
ada.
The chief difficulty At present In
esta blishins such a broadcast system
is seen in the scarcity of wave lengths
that. under the gentlemen's agreement
between Canada and the United
States. are at the disposal OF cana
dian broadcasters.
Should science discover method
whereby two stations situated close
together might broadcast on a com
mon wave length without heterodyn-
ing. the working out Of such plan
would he comparatively simple. At
present few Of the Canadian rail-
way plants are being linked occasion
ally. but for the most part each sta
tion broadcasts programs of it's own.
A request for additional wave
lengths for Canadian stations may be
made this Winter. 1t is believed how
ever. that any such request would
await permanent radio legislation In
the United States.
In any event new understanding
between the United States and Can
ada regarding the use Of wave lengths
Ii expected to be made whenever
Congress assigns radio control to some

MUSIC GENIUS
DUE IN j. s.
By BEN STERN


AnI6FMhtlOH1l Nc"W 5CASAS~
CLEVELAND, Oct. Is. - The
worlds next great music genius. one
who will stand on par with Wag-
ner, Beethoven and Handel, whose
music will sum up the entire prog.
ress of the worlds civilization. will
come from America.
This is the confident prediction OF
Nikolai Sokoloff, conductor of the
Cleveland Symphony Orchestra.
America Is ripe for the production
of genius, who will amaze the civil.
lized world with the power and
glowing tones OF his composition,
the conductor said.
Through the nationwide interest
in music, the fine orchestras that
are being brought into existence and
the very bringing of music into every
home via monograph and victrola,
the stage has been set for the ad
vent of composer, who will mean
as much to this generation as Wag'
ner meant to his.
II believe that nowhere in the
world Is as much attention given
to the cultivation of the musical art
as in America declared Sokoloff.
The people of America today are
much more musical than that OF any
other country at any other time.
We hear a great deal Of German
bands and the German love of mu-
sic. but at no time in the musical
history Of that nation was there evil
dent the popular love of music as in
this country today"

MARKET
MARKS TIME
BY international News Service

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-Speculative
interest in Wall Street was largely
concentrated on the Government
cotton crop estimate at the begin
ming of trading today. Both the cot
ton and the stock market slowed up
during the first hour. the cotton ex'
change being closed for trading be-
tween 1855 and 11:15 o'clock. Stocks
also marked time in this period, with
narrow trading in the industrial
speculative leaders and fractional
price changes in most of the tsocks
sold.
The Governments estimate Of IT,
$4,000 bales was 400 900 bales above
expectations. With the exception of
the utility stocks and few of the
rubber and tire stocks. the trend OF
prices was downward.
Firmness in United States Steel
common was the feature OF the in
dustrial list. The stock was in
good demand around 1879. against
last weeks low at 1879, on market
rumors that the directors would
grant an extra cash dividend to
stockholders at their meeting to-
morrow. Some OF the Independent
Steel shares reflected this strength
of the market leader, Crucible and
Bethlehem selling fractionally
higher.
U. S. Rubber. Goodrich. Fisk and
other rubber and tire stocks con-
tinued the rally which started near
the end of Fridays session, and
the same was true of a number of
the local traction and public utility
stocks.
