address on Prosperity" broadcast
over a countrywide chain of radio
stations Thursday night, John j.
Raskob, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, discussed farm
depression, prohibition, the tariff
and immigration.
Raskob denied that Governor AL

fourths q the Democratic members
of congress had pledged themselves
to be bound by the constructive
Interpretation of the tariff plank"
in the Democratic national plat

Smith, Raskob said, had pledged
himself and his party against any
revision of the tariff that might be

BY TIMES RADIO EDITOR


Assuring the radio public that
you're there with Crosley," our
Cincinnati neighbor, the CroSley
Radio Corporation, is offering as its
feature set for 1929 the "Showbox." "
Crosley engineers say that the
outstanding qualities of their latest
effort are tone" and "Selectivity." I"
The new Dynacone speaker, they
believe, achieves with a marked de-
gree a true reproduction of sound
on either low or high frequencies.
They stress the point that this
new creation does not overaccen-
tuate the base, but produces an ac-
curate tonal quality in music and
decidedly so in the speaking voice.
Tuning in on the "Slumber Man"
from WIZ you can get some idea of
the marked selectivity and faithful
tonal reproduction of this new set,
WEAF comes in with outstanding
selectivity, enabling you to tune in
speedily and to eliminate inter-
channel interference.
The model shown here Is referred
to as No. 706. 1t has a beautiful
Showers walnut finish cabinet; il
Illuminated dial and built-in Dyna-
cone speaker. The Showbox is the
decided feature of the entire Cros-
ley line and is offered with several
beautifully designed Showers cab
inets.
Using this set during the last
week, we found it to. truly possess
the muchly advertised tonal quail
ity. An abundance of volume per-
mitS the owner of the ShowboX to
adapt this set to practically any size
room in the home. Stations are
separated satisfactorily and tuned
in quickly.
Hoover'S speech Monday night at
New York was decidedly distinct
and clear at any volume. The new
Dynacone is far from being harsh,
and enables the user easily to pick
out the various instruments in any
orchestra selection.
CroSley also is offering the radio
public the "Gembox" and the
''Bandbox." The entire line is dis
tributed in Marion county by the
Kruse- -Connell Company.
Next week: The new 8-tube
Day-Fan AC receiver.

GREENWICH AND OYSTERS

Greenwich, and all in connection herewith, has never lacked in wealth. As such things go, it is credited with being one of the rich- est of municipalities. It's grand list is out of all proportion to its size, nearly equalling that of Bridgeport; it's fine homes are fit subjects for renown. What if a large proportion of it's citizens commute from New York and possibly are more interest ed in what transpires in the metropolis than in their home town they help to elorify Greenwich by residing there and Greenwich, in the respects mentioned, helps to glorify Connecticut.
 Hence it was a shock to read that the town of Greenwich has been sued for a tidy sum for the destruc- ton of oyster beds in the con- tiguous Sound through the dumping Of it's sewage into that noble arm of the sea. One would have thought that here is one city along the Sound which would have been eager and rapid to adopt the most modern of disposal systems, so that the glor- ous body of water at its door would not be contaminated.
 But Greenwich, in all probability, has failed. It is no better than other Connecticut cities along the Sound in this respect: no supc rior than the poorest among them. The easiest way has been the adopted method; and now The entire state realizes that Greenwich. with all it's wealth, re- finement. wealth and leisure, has { had no time or inclination 10 i'm prove upon ifs sister cities or towns
 II is 10 be hoped that the firm of oyeter cu!turists which has brought inc suit wins it in court. The lesson would be well worth the paltry s145,0l9, or possibly more. that it
