TOTAL 1928 RADIO
SALES S65O,55O,0(()
Batteries One of Few Items
Failing to Show Increase
Last Year.
BY c. e. BUTTERFIELD,
Associated Press Radio Editor.

Radio is officially elated about what it
did. in 1923 in the way of piling up
! dollars.
Cold hard figures may not smatter
much of the romantic. but this infant
industry gets lot of cheer out of them.
| In paving through a mass of data
gathered in a survey conducted by
Radio Retailing the first plum pulled
out bears the figure of $650,55O, 900 as
the total sales for the year. Alongside
of this is put $425, 100000 for 1927.
Next in line is the fact that 1850, 600
| factory-built sets we're turned into
$306, 100000, while the year before these
figures were l,350,000 sets and $685.
| 100000.
+ Tube Sales Increase.
So many receivers put into use and
requirements meant tube supply that
is almost staggering. The year saw
so 200 900 sold, for which the public
paid $11O,250,000. Again comparison Is
made with 41,200,000 tubes in 1917 at
! SGT 100000.
Loud speakers Joined in the great
outgo of radio material. Reproducers
of all kinds totaled 2,460,000, sold Tor
SGT, 400, 600.
An estimated 100000 persons are
classed as members of the radio audi
ence, against 100000 in 1927. All
types of sets now in use bear The census
figure of 100000.
Batteries Fail to Gain.
About the only thing that did not
show An increase. and to be expected
because of the AC set, was the sale OF
batteries. The drop was to $50, 40O ,UoU
from $68,00O,ooo in 1927 and $4,000
600 in 1926. A and B power units. Stor-
age batteries and chargers TOOK
plunge also. In 1928 there was
business of $17,500,o0O in these articles
a fall from $34,000,O00 the previous
wear. Other accessories, Including
headphones, aerial equipment, etc, had
a total outlay of 100000, compared
with S36.550,000 in 1927. Available
figures place the total parts business
last year at $l2000,000, compared Win
$2l 900 900 two years ago.
Exports took jump along with most
other things, going from $92OO,OOo IN
1927. to $10,907,000 in 1928.
Radio retailing supplements its mass
of data with this prediction: Flnai
figures warrant the prediction that the
1923 radio audlence VIII reach eAAS "vV"'

This DIX, habit is hard to cure.
Out in Harrisburg. Pa, for instance,
there is w. S. Mack, who has an Of

In these bulletins he likes to tell
others who have not been so success

Speaking

straints imposed by microphone per-
| Torrance.
Usually the disquieting mechanical
setting and the cold, impersonal gaze OF
the monitor looking out of his glass
cage is sufficient to tame the most OBJ
streperouS ego There was one rather
oracular Washington statesman who
was mildly condescending when we tried
to tell him how to get his speech over
the radio. In spite of everything he
took his usually statesmanlike stance
and then started walking around the
room, believing an gesticulating.
Radio Set Him Down.
The monitor was making frantic
signs, which we knew meant that he
was blasting" and that the perform
ance in general was a mess. When he
checked up afterWard on the telephone
calls and kilograms commenting on his
speech he almost took the count and
he began to concede that perhaps,
after all, there was something to be
learned about radio addresses
He did learn. In later appearances
he carefully wrote out his speech, stood
Squarely before the microphone and
throttled himself down to about half
his normal lung power. Oddly enough,
l found that in being thus disciplined
by the mike" he was a much simpler
and more likable person. His strut
ting and shouting was just sort of an
occupatiopal disease that he had con-
tracted in his years as a politician.
After the campaign last year great
deal was written@ about radio debunking
politics, the idea being that it was much
harder to strain the old hokum through
the microphone 1t is my observation
that it is also debunking lot of the
spotlight workers politicians
and others. People in crowds get
steamed up and a crowd performer is
always expanding himself into a larger
figure than he really is The radio has
a way of setting him down fiat on his
heels. and what he says or does has to
ride on its merits. There are no help
full tricks of gesture or eye-raising or
personal mannerisms to help him out.

Wave Lengths.

To help stations maintain accuracy of
operation on assigned wave lengths, the
Bureau of Standards station, WV, will
transmit radio signals of standard fire.
uuencies tomorrow night The signals
also can be utilized in celebrating re-
ceiverS.
Most of the transmisSions will be on
the long waves, but one set of signals
will be on $50 kilocycles in the broad
cast band, a channel assigned to several
regional stations. The signals can be
heard and utilized by stations equipped
for continuous wave reception at dis
tances of from 500 to 1000 miles frca1
Washington.
The transmiSsions have slight mod
ulation of high pitch to aid in their
identification. There will be four
minute interval between transmissions
of various frequencies to allow adjust
ment of the transmitter.
The schedule of transmissions on
Eastern standard time follows: 125 kilo-
cycles, 10 to 1908 pm: $50 kilocycles,

NTRALIZED RADIO UNITS
FOR BIG BUILDINGS PERFECTED
Switchboard Receiving Sets and Com
munity Antennae Devised
by Engineers.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. January 19.-Central-
lied radio, by which even hundreds OF
listeners under one roof can be ade-
quately accommodated, has been
evolved by engineers.
Intended to meet the needs of lis
teners in hotels and hospitals, the plan
also works toward the elimination Of
the many aerials to be seen upon the
city apartment houses.
In the case of the hospital or hotel,
with Its transient listeners, the problem
was one Of supplying radio entertain
ment from central receiver In suf-
ficient variety and range of volume. In
the case of apartment houses and
hotels IT. was question of suitable an
for many receivers.
Mounted on Switchboard.
The engineering stats of the Radio
Corporation of America and its aSSo-
ciate companies have developed equip
ment, described as "audio centralized
radio" for hospital or hotel. 1t consists
of units mounted in switchboard form.
One receiver, with simplifying diStribu-
ton equipment, constitutes one pro-
gram or listening channel. AS many
as four channels may be installed to
give a wide program choice.
The central installation comprises a
broadcast receiver, monitoring speak
err panel, one to three ampliflers and a
control panel. The receiver for each
channel is tuned to a given station and
the dials locked. A time clock switch
starts and stops the program at any
designated hour. Wires carrying voice
currents lead to outlets In rooms In all
parts of the building.
For apartment houses where listen
erS have their own receivers single
antenna supplies radio-frequency cur
rent for all receivers in the building.
The signals intercepted by the antenna
are distributed by suitable wiring
system.
Rivals Open Country.
Replacing the dozens of separate
aerials, a single antenna so to IS feet
above the roof is erected. It's short
lead-in is brought to battery of Gen.
trail coupling units. From each unit
line of metal conduit, inclosing radio
frequency cable, takes the signal into
the building. In each apartment an

extension coupling unit transfers the
RF energy to the receiver through a
wall outlet.
Any type of aerial and ground set
may be operated. Each receiver has an
individual coupling tube and B CHM
lnator, which are built into the wall
outlet.
The distribution system does not pick
up additional signals or interference,
and its length has no influence on the
wave length. Engineers say 1t gives re-
ception that rivals that in the open
country.
The central coupling units, designed
to prevent interaction between the re-
ceivers, comprise coupling tubes and
B eljminators. Each riser" or trans
mission line has a central coupling unit.
Ten receiving set coupling units ma" he

CHICAGOAN FIGHTS
FOR PORTABLE RADIO
Appeal Follows Commissioners Re
fusal to Renew Licenses for
His Stations.

The fight of the roaming" radio sta
ton for place in the broadcast band
is being waged, virtually single handed,
by c. l.. Carrel of Chicago, veteran
operator of portabies,y who has carried
his case to the Court of Appeals of the
District of Columbia.
Carrels appeal followed the refusal
of the Federal Radio Commission to
grant his application for renewal of
licenses of stations owned and operated
by him for several years. Last May the
commission signed fhe.!sdeath warrant"
of all portable -broadcasting stations,
effective July l, 1928. There were 10
portables at the time. The commission
said there was a constant source of in
reference due to changing geographical
locations and to the lack of proper
equipment. o.. 49,. .-..... Sc.
Carrel charges the commission, failed
to fix time for hearing On the order
to give him an opportunity to be heard
as provided in the radio act of 1927.
The commission says that provisions
were made for hearings Of portable sta
tions, but at their request the hearings
had been continued from time to time
Carrel declares a hearing was finally
granted December II, at which time he
introduced evidence to show public in
tereSt and convenience would be served
by granting his applications. The COM
mission, he contends, offered no evil
dence to refute his testimony, but
sought to introduce evidence Of an ex-
pert character to show from engineer
ing standpoint that the existence of
portable stations under the new alloca-
ton was inadviSable
THE intended expert wholly failed to
qualify as such, and the applicant,
through his counsel, moved to strike out
the testimony, which motion was over
ruled by the commission" Carrel sets
forth. The commission erred in this
respect"
Carrel claims the records show his
stations have never been source of

Engineers believe that the 10 kilo-
cycle separation is dangerously close,
although they talked of an eight kilo-
cycle separation in 1925.
They have carried out the stagger
plan of assigning adjacent wave lengths,
placing very close station frequencies
as far apart, geographically, as possible.
BY this invention they hope to mini
mize difficulties under actual working
conditions. They would rather have a
15-kilocycle limit. however.
There is also the long-Wave situation
which concerns seven countries, and In
which the separation problem is a
greater one.
Exactly how this new repartition OF
european radio facilities viii work out
is still question, and not even A. T
Burrows, the efficient secretary OF tbs
Union Internationale de Radiophonit
can tell. 1t is being tackled with the
same optimism that guided the flrs'
plan, and there is every hope that II
will be successful.

It's pertinence relegated to the
days when free lunches went with
beer and the barber shop was the
exclusive habitat Of man. the old
expression carrying Goals to New.
castle has gone by the board.
American commerce has exploded
this old geographic metaphor.
For the merchants OF these United
States, according to the National
Geographic Society, make millions
every year carrying Goals to many
"Newcastles."
The expression had its derivation
in the fact that Newcastle. En-
gland IS the terminal for the storing
OF coal from English mines. To
carry coal to this city was con-
sidered the height of absurdity.
Apples to Normandy
But now. a report Of it's field
workers to headquarters OF the
Geographic Society declared, Amer,
lean merchants are selling all sorts
of products to countries for which
those same products are famous.
This old song about apples. Nor.
mandy and pretty blossoms doesn't
mean a thing to the apple exporter
OF the United States, according to
the report. He packs his red
globules into soft tissue, plops them
into ship. and away they go
across the sea and on to the fruit
stands of Normandy.
Peru is the original home Of
uuinine. And the United states
ships nearly a half million dollars
worth of this medicine to the South
American country.
Chinaware TO China
American exporters sell china
ware to China: prepared milk to
the dairy land Of Holland, rubber
goods to the home of rubber, Brit.
ish MaIava: silk to Japan. and
chocolate to the Dominican Repub-
lie, where flourish the Chocolate"
trees. which furnish nearly. 100,-
900 pounds of cocaO to this coun.
try annually.

America shipped 10000 600 tons Of
coal to England-and some of 1t
actually went, to Newcastle.
