Chicago-(FP)-RumOrs current
n Chicago for over a year that a
German-American editor would con-
fess to participation in the San
Francisco preparedness day explO-
sion, for which Tom Mooney and
Warren X. Billings were framed,
simmered down this week to rather
slender reality. Pres. John Fitz-
patrick of the Chicago Federation
of Labor made public the statement
of a recently deceased western
sports writer of German extraction
who had been told by his wife, also
deceased, that she was warned by
German-American neighbOrs not to
watch the parade because something
terrible would happen. The neigh
bors were described as German
agents.
There remains no doubt, however
that Mooney and Billings were
framed by California capitalist re-
action.

only 50 many programs and radio work
is thus a sharply limited field. I am
talking frankly to my young friends of
radio, as this flood of letters leads me
to believe that somebody ought to tell
them just what the situation is.
don't want to discourage hopes or talent,
but my best advice is to be sure of
your ground before coming to New
York; to prepare yourself by special
radio training if possible and to be
ready with some other avenue of artis-
tic advancement If you don't get access
to microphone.
One thing that the broadcasting COM
panies do want is new and novel ideas
You will have much better chance in
the metropolis with bright and shiny
idea than you will with even superior
musical ability. Some little clever en-
tertainment twist-musical or dramatic
something informing or stimulating,
anything unique or clever and out Of the
ordinary. The public has been given
such highly seasoned dishes in enter
tainment during the last few years that
its appetite is always whetted for some
thing new. 1t would seem that almost
everything possible has been done, but
when you stop to think that the radio
covers every possibility in the whole
auditory field, there are still plenty OF
worlds to conquer.
