Radio Acts to
Sway Increasing
Number of People

mat radio Is influencing public
opinion by what it excludes rather
than by what it gives is the opinion
of II. V. kaitenborn, Associate Editor
of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. Mr..
kaltenborn has made a special study
of Radio. and speaks each Monday
night at Z. NJ, through Station WOR
on Current Events. With reference to
the influence of radio he says:
Radio Is influencing public opinion
by what is excludes even more than
by what it gives. Our present en-
dency Is toward uniformity rather
toward diversity in the material that
broadcast. Small stations are giving
way to large ones. Superpower is
succeeding low power. Manifestation
hook-ups are replacing single station
programs. Only little While ago
the Socialist candidates in any large
city who denied the use of a broad
casting station. during a political
campaign might have combined and
for ten thousand dollars established a
station that would have reached most
of the voters. Today the highpower-
ed stations would drown them out.
Radio is making people think in
unison. 1t is doing more than any
other agency to develop the lock step
In public opinion. AS radio is now
controlled, it objects to that which
provokes and stimulates independent
thinking as too controversial" A
debate between William jennings
Bryan and Professor Henry Fairfield
Osborn on evolution was barred on
this account. All stations dread adj
verse publicity. They are seeking to
| build up good will and exclude any
feature that might offend a part of
! their audience. An offering must be
sufficiently innocuous to appeal to
young and old, male and female. to

Certainly it has not yet begun to use
It's power with a constructive p,Jr
pose. There is much to be said in

the time has come to ask for a

is impossible If the Regulation Factor
of the eliminator exceeds a certain
per cent. The current in the loud
speaker circuit constantly varies be-
tween and 80 milliamperes. An
eliminator varying widely in voltage
between these limits prevents life
like reproduction. Tone quality Is
dependent upon constant B voltage.
A Regulation factor of under ::eo is
considered satisfactory. Cheap cleo
trolytic 'eliminators often run as high
factor as 1870. The All American
Constant "B" Eliminator is 1890.
This has the highest output voltage
and lowest Regulation Factor COM
bination, and is therefore the most
desirable Of the popular priced elimi-
majors using the Raytheon tube.

Rosenberg previously had been
barred from rings in New York ana

unethical conduct.
The Taylor bout, sched..

The commission, however, heard
through underground channels that
gamblers were awaiting the appoint-

The gamblers, 1t is said, wanted
to be sure the decision would not
be too unfair to Rosenberg, and were
