SPEECHES BY RADIO
ARE NOW RECORDED
General Electric PerfeCtS De.
vice to Preserve Sound
on Films.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

Momentous broadcasts, like the recent
inauguration program or the playing
of great orchestraS or the speeches of
public men, do not all pass on into
radios ethereal infinity to live only in
the memory of those who listen to
them through loud-speakers.
Various experimenters have worked
for several years on the photographic
recording of the family powered sig
mails that are picked up by receiving
antennas and translated through ra-
dio set into a program of voice or
music, but 1t has remained for the
General Electric Co. to perfect such
sound recording with tone values and
quality fully preserved.
The Schenectady laboratory has been
recording broadcaSts from station WGY
on films similar to those used for talk
ing motion pictures. The sound repro
auctions are like those in the talkies,
except that pictures are not taken and
the sound channels double back over
the film. They thus occupy a full
width of film, instead of paralleling a
picture with double sound track.
Not for Commercial Use.
Harry Sadenwater, engineer of WGY,
Washington visitor today, said that
the process was not intended for COM
mercial exploitation at this time, so
far as he was aware. The broadcast
managers are using it regularly. he
said, to check up on announcers, par
ticularly recruits for announcerial posts
The announcers are able to listen to
their own voices and discover any pos
sible errors.
The possibilities of the film recording
of radio programs were demonstrated
even more effectively about week ago,
when Walter Damrosch, the symphony
director, visited the laboratory of Dr.
c. w. Hewlett at Schenectady and
heard himself announcing one of his
Saturday night radio symphony hours
He then heard full hour of announc-
ing and playing. According to w. T.
Meenam of the General Electric Co.,
Damrosch was greatly impressed with
the fidelity with which the output of

u. S. BR0ADCASTERS
TO GUARD AUDIENCE
Code of Ethics Adopted for Radio
to Protect Listener From
Exploitation.
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, March 26-Radio sta
tions determined yesterday to protect
the listeners sensibilities from offense,
his pocketbook from dishonest exploita-
ton and his health from injury. A code
Of ethics, adopted by the National AS
ISOLATION of Broadcasters, was an
nounced as housekeeping, independ-
end of the Federal Radio Commission.
Recognizing that the radio audience
includes persons of all ages and all
types of political, social and religious
belief" the code begins, every broad
caster will endeavor TO prevent the
broadcasting of any matter which would
commonly be regarded as offensive"
: Financial responsibility of persons or
firms using stations is to be investi-
gated to guard listeners against fraud
ulent schemes; obscene matter will not
be tolerated, and bar will be raised
against any advertising statements
which the broadcaster knows or believes
to be false. deceptive or grossly exag-
gerated. Any advertising matter re-
garding products or services which may
be injurious to health will be examined
carefully. Sponsored or pafd-fOr mate
rial will be identified clearly.
The association recommended to Con-
gress that the existing five-Zone divi-
sion of the country for administration
be eliminated and urged the lawmakers
to designate single authority for radio
regulation.
The current testimonial campaign in
the cigarette industry was discussed
and protest placed before the meeting
by the National Food Products protec-
tive committee against what was termed
'the vicious assaults upon public health
and unfair attacks upon some OF the

spread attempt to create a vast child

HE was enabled" Mr.. Meenain says,
ITO make valuable observations on the
positions of various instruments with
relation to the microphone In one or
two places he found that in his future
programs changes must be made in the
seating of certain sections to get the
best results unsteady from his SYM
phonic organization.
Voice of DIR. Steinmetz.
One of the most priced reproductions
of voices In the Schenectady company's
fast-growing library of film records is
that Of DR.. Charles p. Steinmetz. the
electrical wizard, taken a few months
before he died.
This was transcribed "off the air. y
as are the radio programs, but the sta
ton not long ago gave its listeners the
opportunity of hearing the voice of the
great genius by broadcasting it as part
of its regular program.
Last Christmas Eve WGY also
broadcast film address by former
President Coolidge which had been made
specially for film recording when he
was still Vice President. This tran
scription of voice upon film was ar
ranged by I. A. Hoxie, who brought a
