The Radio Corporation Of America, there

having the most adequate programs broad
cast. 1t is interested, as the public is, in
having them comprehensive and free from
discrimination.
Any use of radio transmission which causes
the public to feel that the quality of the
programs is not the highest, that the use of
radio is not the broadcast and best use in the
public interest, that it is used for political
advantage or selfish power, will be detri-

Radio for 100000 Homes

The marker for receiving SETS in The future sciH
be determined largely BY the quantity and
quality Of the programs broadcast.
We say quantity because they must be dl-
verSi6ed enough SO that some Of them will
appeal to all possible listeners.
We say quality because each program must
be the best of its kind. If that ideal were to
be reached, no home in the United States
could afford to be without radio receiving
set.
Today the best available statistics indicate
that 100000 homes are equipped, and
II 600, 900 homes remain to be supplied.
Radio receiving sets Of the best reproductive
quality should be made arailablc for all, and
me hope to make them chap enough so that
all may buy.
The day has gone by when the radio receiv-
ing set is plaything. 1t must now be an
instrument of service.
