and to amateurs, who are very numer-
Gus, but whose purchases are small.
They also leave out of account pur-
chases of equipment by the various
Government services, such as the Army
and the Navy, whose radio budgets run
into millions annually. No consolidated
figures are available for this part OF
the market, but it is doubtful whether
it is much more than $50,000,000 in
the aggregate.
It Is estimated that the power COM
panies are deriving revenue OF at
least $12 2,000, 600 annually from the sale
Of current incident to operating the
million alternating current sets that
have gone on the market since later
than 1927. Only about half this amount
Is actually from current sales; the re-
mainder represents increased consump-
tion of electricity due to the fact that
people stay at home more and remain
awake later to listen to the radio. This
figure, of course, must be considered
entirely apart from the radio industry's
own turnover.

to Make It Part of New
Year Celebration.
by the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 2.-The death
of an actor after an attempt to slide
down the brass pole in fireholse re-
suited today in investigation of charges
that a New Year party had been held
sl the building, contrary to law.
Fire department officials denied there
had been any celebration at the West
Fifty-eight street firehouse and re-
fused to discuss reports that three wom-
en- had attended party on the third
floor Of the building.
Firemen said the actor, Norman St
Clair Hales, who was playing minor
role In Broadway show, had called
to extend New Year greetings. After
his fall, he walked from the firehouse
and dropped dead short distance
away. A fireman who tried to pre-
vent him from going down the pole
also fell, but escaped injury.

One OF the amazing things about the
radio development is that it apparently
has not drawn its income from other
amusement enterprises, such as the
legitimate theater and the movies. Nor
has the phonograph industry suffered
from the radio The latter's business
has actually increased very substantially
in these last five or six years since the
ownership Of radio receiving sets be-
came commonplace.

10 final adjournment on Monday.
Numerous measures were passed,
most of them of a local nature; a
few of them of Statewide import
ance, but the outstanding feature of
the session was the time wasted. In
this respect the session just closed
is in no wise different from numer-
GUS others that have gone before it.
1t is well known fact that the
opening days of the sessions are
made up principally OF adjourn
ments and that all of the work &C
complished in the ninety-day session
could easily be put through in sixty
days, at saving to taxpayers. But
any such suggestion as this is not
good politics, and would find little
favor with those in the game. Nor
is it likely that any such change will
ever come to pass, but things will
just drift, as they always have.

SPRING TIME AND CLEAN
UP TIME

There is no ''sure sign" of spring,
but spring should be sure sign
OF the arrival or that time TOR the
community to clean up. There is no
superstition or propnesylng about
Inns cleanup sign.
$50 When warm weather has come to
stay until cold .weaIner comes In the
sautumn) every owner OF property
and tenant should instinctively teel
it his duty to remove the evidences
of winters ravages and to aid and
augment nature In her work of re-
Identification.
Every spring cleanup program
should include disposal of winters
accumulation of l1uter and decayed
vegetation, repairing and repainting
of buildings, etc.
Cleanliness about the person or
the home costs nothing. A COM
munity cleanup need involve no ex-
pense, except of a moderate amount
of labor on the part of the house
holders. If there ever were excuses
for cleanliness they were removed
long ago.
What is the compensation of a
COMMUNICATIVE cleanup campaign?
1t improves the general health of the
community by removing deposits
that are breeding places of disease
germs and disease carrying insects,
A clean town is better place in
which to live than one that is un-
sanitary and unsightly. And the
best community advertising is the
appearance of being 'cleaned-up,
painted-up, and planted-up."
