j. S. BEATS WORLD
IN BROADCAST|NG
More Stations Within Its
Borders Than in All Other
Countries Combined.

Embraced within the borders of the
United States are more radio broad
casting stations than in all the rest of
the world combined And this will still
be true after the Federal Radio Com
mission finishes its job of pruning sta
tons here and there so as to equaliZe
broadcasting facilities.
Latest reports to the Commerce De-
partment show there now are 468 sta
tons in foreign countries, whereas the
United States sustains upward of $50
at the present writing. This total may
be diminished by from so to IS at
the beheSt of the Radio Commission,
directed by Congress to distribute pro-
portionately among the five radio zones
the total number of transmitters, but
even then America will far and away
outclaSs the rest of the world in radio
service facilities.
Striking Comparisons Noted.
Comparisons may be odious. but they,
nevertheless. are striking with respect
to radio-minded nations These con-
trasts, only approximations. warrant
study.
The population of the world, roughly.
is It's 100000. That of the United
States is about 100000. The United
States has about $50 hroadcasting sta
tons. The rest of the world has 468.
The number of receiving sets In this
country is estimated at 100000 All
other countries of the world combined
may have little better than half that
number. The number of listeners In
this country. based on the average
of five members to a family of five
listeners for each set, would be between
100000 and 100000. About the
same number-perhaps lesS-comprise
the listening public of the remaining
countries of the world.
Other figures, still in the realm of
conjecture. show that of the total popu-
lation of the world, one billion people
live In the zones where radio reception
might be termed constant. These
zones essentially are North Americ:.,
most parts of South America and the
greater part of Europe.
100000 People Equipped.
About one-tenth. or 100O00,000 peo-
pie. are now equipped with radio ia
ciIities. To put radio in all homes in
the constant zones, upward of 200,-,
600 900 sets would have to be provided,
on the basis of five members TO a
family. With broadcasting facilities
provided through the world, some
$50 600 900 sets would be required.
At the present rate of progress. which
cannot be expected to continue many
years longer, 1t would require about
three years to double the present num-
Der of sets In use, and to reach the
