Commissioner Would Substi-
tute Horsepower" in
Radio World.

A lesson in the elements of electrical
energy, as it relates To broadcasting sta
tons, designed to dispel the mystery
that seems to enshroud the terms "kilo-
watts" and watts" in the minds OF
radio commissioners, the general pub
lie. and the radio leaders of Congress. "
is given by Commissioner Q. Fl. Cald-
well, who is radio engineer.
Assuming the role of tutor, Mr. Cald-
we'll suggests substitution of the old
familiar term of horsepower in lieu of
kilowatts (meaning 1000 watts He
infers that it might be well to adopt
this term in view of the recent public
discussions Of the tremendous power
of broadcasting stations. explaining
that speaking of a station in terms of
horsepower, familiar to every farm
er and mechanic, probably would give
a clearer conception of the actual power
quantities involved
The startling disclosure is made by
Mr., Caldwell that the superpowered
Stations WEAF and KDKA have actual
strength of IS horsepower" and that
their power is not such a terrifying
thing when compared to any seven-pas-
senger automobile, which radiates al
most exactly the same amount of pow
er. One horsepower equals 746 watts,
he says.
Mr. Caldwell brings out that go
horsepower station" like WBZ of East
Springfield, Mass; WGN of Chicago, or
KOA OF Denver. seems not nearly so
formidable as one called by the uglier
term of Is kilowatts or $4,000 watts. >
These 20-horsepower stations, by way of
familiar comparison, use no more power
than does a domestic electric range or
water heater installed in hundreds OF
thousands Of American homes.
Although he espouses Use OF horse
power Mr.. Caldwell admits that this
nomenclature has one drawback and
that lies in the possibility of some wag,',
referring TO broadcasters like WGR.
Buffalo: WHIT, Charlotte, N. c.. or
WEAO. Columbus. Ohio, as being "one-
horse stations. which. of course, they
are. as their output CT $50 watts is al

/. ST|RS COMMISSION
Sentiment Is Divided Over
Licensing Stations $4,000
Watts and Above.
ny MARTIN CODEI,.

a tempest is STIRRING WltI1n iIle FSu~
eral Radio Commission over the matter
of high-power broadcastipg. Even in
the face of repeated Endorsements of
high power for the sake Of clearer
program reception and more economical
utilization of wave lengths, sentiment
against relicensing superpower stations
with their present vantage is diScerned
within the ranks Of the commission.
Maximum power assignments of So
600 watts have been suggested lnfor-
mallv By the chairman of the commits
sion and It's most recently appointed
member, Judge Ira #. Robinson of West
Virginia. Although he will not discuss
the subject for publication, he is known
to have expressed his disfavor of high
power broadcasting among his col
leagues and some friends.
His belief is that the high-power sta
tons. like many Of lower powers, dc
vote their time largely 10 chain pro-
grams. There Is consequently much
overlapping Of territory. A system of
local stations with local or regional
powers Is sufficient To provide for the
radio needs Of the country, according
To Judge Robinson, because national
programs could come via the networks.
The commission will accordingly be
called upon 10 reduce the wattage of
such stations as WEAF and WIZ, New
York City: WGY. Schenectady, and
KDkA. East Pittsburgh. These have
10000 watts capacity, and all but WIZ
use the limit Station WIZ uses 10000
watts,
Other Reductions.
Likewise reductions will be proposed
for such stations as WIZ, Springfield,
Mass; WGN, Chicago: KOA, Denver;
KGO. Oakland. Calf; KSTP, St Paul,
MINI, and WIFI. Washington, y. c.
These are the only others In the coun-
try of 10 kilowatts or more power.
There are about 35 kilowatt stations.
The PROPOSAL will meet--indeed. al
ready has met--with vigorous objections.
Commissioner Caldwell OF New York
is the chief exponent of high-power
broadcaSting on the commission. Com
missioners Iafount and Pickard are
favorable to high power. Or. j. II.
Dellinger of the Bureau of Standards,
newly named chief engineer for the
commission. advocated GO high-power
channels in the engineers ALLEGATION
report he helped draw up, and plainly
told the commission when he consented
To serve with 1t for three months that
he still believed in the essential prin-
eiples of the engineers report
The radio industry is, with few ex-
ceptions, favorable to high power, and
practically all radio engineers recon-
mend it. Many of the latter have testi-
fed before the commission at its sew
eral technical conferences that high
power Is desirable for distance recep-
ton, for clearer signal strength and TO
ride out static The only technical ar
guments raised against high power are
that il renders channel practically
useless for any other stations. and that
1t causes side-band interference that
is. distortions and cross-talks on neigh
boring wave channels This, however,
can be overcome.

Lands Nearly Pays Dollar
To See Griffmen
Stop Robins

CLEARWATER, March 10
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
high commissioner of baseball, is
accustomed to crashing" the gate
at any baseball park in the coun-
try by merely presenting his
famous self to the ticket collector
but it almost cost the judge a
dollar to see the Robins lose to
the Senators here.
While the third inning was IN
progress the car of baseball ar
rived at the park from Belleaire,
where he is playing golf, and pro-
ceeded to walk through the gate.
He was held up by a young man,
who demanded his dollar admls-
sion. The Judge was about to
fork over a 81 note when Secre--
tary John German espied him and
escorted him in free of charge.
