ard and to educate him in vari-
Gus and Sundry ways. This is the
next step in program development,
for musical programs have reached
their ultimate.
The N. B. c., feeding it's chain
programs to So stations through
out the country, is evolving meth
DDS of diverSifying the entertain
ment with these ends in view, &C
cording to Merlin H. AyleSworth,
its president. If business organi-
cations do not care to sponsor
such programs, he said, the N. B.
G. itself will put them on as a
part of their sustaining programs.
Radio stations today, according
to Aylesworth, are putting on the
air as fine musical programs as
exist. Operas, symphonies, lead
ing recording artists and stage
luminarieS are regular features.
But there must be development of
programs just as there is develop
ment in the art itself, he holds,
and the trend is along cultural
and educational lines.

JENKINS INTENDS
TO SEND PICTURES
New Station Near Capital City
Plans to Start Opera
tions Soon.

With the erection Of a special radio
picture broadcasting station i've miles
north Of Washington, c. Francis
jenkins, pioneer radio inventor, plans
TO transmit pictures every night of the
week except Sunday.
The new station will start operating
within two or three weeks, Mr.. jenkins
says, and it is hoped with an increase
in power to serve lockers" throughout
the United States. The band in the
short wave field recently set aside by
the Federal Radio Commission for tele-
vision and picture broadcaSting is bet
ter adapted for clear transmission than
the channels on which he Is now operat-
ing and should eliminate much OF the
fading which is the bane of good pic
ture reception, he says.
The new transmitter under conStruc-
ton at the Jenkins laboratories will be
adjusted for the sending of half-tones
and images of living persons. jenkins
has been giving silhouette movie pro-
gram. Picture stories also Will be broad
cast from the new station.
Mr.. Jenkins says the radio picture art
has passed the stage Of early expert
mentation and is already bringing en-
tertainment to hundreds of enthusiastic
lockers" Picture transmission, he de-
clares, is at a point comparable to the
position of KDKA OF Pittsburgh when
IL inaugurated aural programs.
Most Of his lockers are amateurs In
the United States and Canada. Bona
fide reports of reception Of his pictures
have been received. he says, from anna
teurs in California, Porto Rico, Mon
treal, Bismarck, N. D.: Texas, Northern
Michigan, Florida, Colorado and Iowa
ss well as nearby States. Particularly
good reception has been reported by
Boston amateurs.
Until the commission designates the
particular channels to be used under
the new ALLEGATION. the jenkins labora-
tories will continue to broadcast on AZ
end 1875 meters. The pictures are broad
cast Monday and Wednesday nights
from 8 until o'clock eastern time. The
house was selected, Mr.. jenkins ex-
plains, upon recommendation Of most
