Department of Commerce 10
Have Quarterly Reports on
Sales by Retailers.

The groundwork for the first radio
stock census is being laid by the Elec'
trical Equipment Division of the De-
partment of Commerce, and within a
years time information will be avail
able for estimating the number of re-
ceiving sets and equipment in use in
the United States by States.
The first fact to be ascertained will
be sets on hand. This data is to be
obtained by the use of questionnaires
now being sent to 81 500 dealers and
900 jobbers in radio. The first Ques-
ton is stocks on hand October i.
Then questionnaires will be sent out
inquiring as to stocks on hand the
1st of January, April and July. AS
soon as the January figures are Sc:
cured it will he possible to determine
the sales in the last quarter of 1927.
and after that quarterly informa ton
will be available. The cooperation Of
the dealers is anticipated. although 1t
is realized that they will not all reply
regularly.
However, it is believed that the per-
centage which does reply will indicate
clearly the average stocks on hand.
as well as show the sales. 50 that
when multiplied by the proper coeti-
cient, the estimated total sales for tie
whole country can be had quarterly.
If only 40 per cent of those interro-
gated reply. the national total will
be estimated by multiplying the sum
of sets reported by 212 to get the 100
per cent figure. The questionnaire
requests information as to receiving
sets wired for AC and battery or
power operation, accessories. loud
speakers. batteries. power units. ordi-
nary vacuum tubes and rectifying
tubes
This survey is to be followed by an
analysis of the manufacturers sales
reported through the cooperation of
the National Electric Manufacturers
Association the 1st of January and
then quarterly. 1t is believed that
these data will make figures available
showing stocks on hand and ship
ments of equipment by States. Such
information should give additional
matter for. checking the countrys to-
tai sets in use and on hand. The or.
ganizations belonging to the National
Electric Manufacturers Association.

60 per cent of the radio set manufac-
turers. and this percentage would be
considered in arriving at the total
figures for the whole industry.
