NEW STATION WLW CROSLEY OPERATING CINCINNATI

| Recently going into service as d broadcasting station under new power and new assigned frequen- cy, was station WLW at Cincinn- ati, Ohio, owned and operated by Crosley, manufa acturers of radio | equipment.
 This station was one of the early stations to being used for e0mmer- cial broadcasting, and advertising. The station is devoted to the mold ling of public acceptance of Cros- Hey products.
 WBW operates on frequency of TOO kilcycles. it has an increas- ed power of 5O0,O0O watts and a 1range47of 5yeee=zmfles diameter It is the most powerful radio 1 broa dcasting station in the world.
 Exhaustive day and night test broadcasts have proven that this goliath of the air has met every rigorous requirement.. A few of fthe- facts concerning operation of the new transmitter as estab- lished through thousands of field strength measurements, verifica- tions and reports from virtually Iexery section of the United States follow: Full 100 percent modula- ton up to its peak power output lof. 2,OOO,000 watts; uniformly flat frequency characteristics re- fecting an exceptionally high qual ity; audio harmones of a neglig- ible quantity, below 10 per cent, quality rarely found; an increase in signal strength at all points of about 325 per cent; expansion of secondary service area of approx imately 1000 per cent; material reduction, and in many localities complete elimination, of fading static. and interference; no in terference with other stations due to the extreme accuracy with which the transmitter is main tained on TOO kilocycles.

ABOUT THE 1884 CHEVROLET?

The new 1894 Chevrolet is a big, husky car, built to stand the Calf. The extra built-in value, which you cannot see, means much toward the comfort and safe ty of the passengers and the long CT life for the car. It is built right; it's extra weight insures the maxi mum in riding comfort and safe ty.
 Here are some facts about the 1894 Chevrolet sedan which were taken from the April issue of N. A. D. A. Official Guide:
 The 1894 Chevrolet sedan has ss6 more pounds of built-in value than the 1884 Ford V-S de luxe sedan: 300 more pounds than the |Terraplane de luxe sedan; 247 pounds more than the de luxe Ply mouth sedan: 175 more pounds than the Hudson Standard sed- an; 16O more pounds than the Istudebaker Dictator "A" sedan; and 14O more pounds than the Dodg, sedan: all extra built-in value. These weights are not guessesi they are officially correct. Th' lChevrolet has been built for speed durability. comfort, and 1t cal stand the "Gafr"; and yet is eco |nomical to operate.

for the national administration, but
for the people as well, to know the

practical adjustment of conflicting
interests.
1t is all too easy for the armchair

nate In trade and industry. The
crash of our industrial and financial
system IN 1929 proved the urgent
need for this rewriting Of the rules
OF the game, the necessity Of better
organization of trade and industry
to serve our economic needs, the
necessity of establishing an indus
trial law and order under the guild
ance of practical, broad-minded busi-
ness men, and of ending the domi-
nance of racketeers and gamblers
and gold-plated anarchists In our in
dustrial life.
Yet for nearly four years we waited
in vain for leadership of industry
and finance to arise and take COM
mand, to establish a constitution for
the self-government of industry and
to organize a national recovery pro-
gram. I attended many a gathering
Of notable representatives of owner
ship and management and labor dur
ing that period and always they ar
rived at one conclusion-that the ma
tional Government, the President him
self, must take command or such a
national movement could not be sue
cesSful.
Finally, in the Spring of 1888, a new
administration came into power and
President Roosevelt took command
assumed the obligations and asserted
the powers of his leadership, and i'm
mediately the tide turned and the
Nation began to move up and out from
the darkest depths of the long depres-
sion.
In the resulting program of indus
trial recovery the Congress and the
President acted upon that funda.
mentally democratic principle which is
essential to preserve individual free
dom, and they adopted as the method
Of reviving and advancing commerce

to assume that you knew the divine
plan and that you shared the wisdom
of the Almighty.
Exact Results Impossible.
We come. then, to the inevitable
conclusion of all sane statesmen who
recognize the limitations of human
knowledge, that we cannot undertake
to end all inequalities of opportunity
| and fortune and to establish unvary-
ing economic and social justice. We
can at best only establish rules OF
fair play that must be changed from
time to time as new occasions teach
new duties" We cannot end, and we
should not end, the competitive efforts
of individuals and voluntary organiza-
tions Of individuals to advance their
special interests, because whenever
and wherever there has been a fair
competition for self advancement the
human race has moved steadily for
ward out of eras of brutal selfishness,
ignorance and cruelty toward eras of
civilized cooperation, wisdom and
kindlineSs.
In the rapid development of our
present industrial civilization, which
is really only so years old, we have
created huge and complicated organi-
cations of human beings to produce
and to exchange the products of
labor. Self-interest has forced our
rugged individualists to combine their
efforts and to discipline themselves
in the service Of great business enter
prises. Naturally these organized
groups, through their self-chosen
leaders, have exerted themselves to
control government so as to advance
or to protect their special interests.
Forgetful often of their common
dependence upon each other, these
organizations have devoted themselves
persistently to obtaining special ad-
vantages through the use OF political
power. They have used property
laws, patent rights, tariff projections,
control of natural resources, regula-
tory laws and economic powers pro-
tected by government, as aids IN a
competitive struggle in which far too
often unscrupulous, greedy and cruel
men have established the rules OF the
game which more high-minded and
generous men have been forced to
adopt, or else lose the game.
Restraint Upon Greed.
Long before 1929 it had become
evident that the rules Of industrial
competition must be so rewritten and
so established in the law Of the land
as to protect honest, fair and humane
business practices and to restrain
reckless greed, IN order that the best
man-the one who served the general
welfare best-might survive and sue
ceed, and in order that the worst
man-the one who did the most harm
to his fellow mcknight not domi-

lower prices and is not inclined to
inquire whether goods are being. sold
without profit or are being produced
by sweated labor, so long as retail
prices are low. 1t is a fact that a
period of reviving business must be q
period of rising prices, but the con-
sumner is quick to resent an increased
cost of living, even though it signifies
that returning prosperity for which
he has been praying.
The worker is always seeking higher
wages, which may bring as an i'm
mediate effect higher prices, or may
increase unemployment If machine
power is substituted for human power
in order to lower production costs.
Now, in this summary of the con-
fiicting demands of different economic
interests, is 1t not evident that no
sound governmental policy will be
wholly satisfactory to any one Sec
tion of the population or to any spe-
cial group. The eternal problem Of
Government is to preserve balance
between competing interests and tc
make sure that in relieving the dis
tress of one element unfair burdens
have not been laid upon another.
There is to my mind one program
of political action which can be made
effective with exceptional certainty
| that it will promote economic justice

the establishment Of codes Of fair COM
petition. The Government did not
undertake to plan what things should
be produced or how they should be
distributed. The Government under
took only to provide that the competi-
ton between men and between organ
izations to produce and exchange the
things men need and desire should be
conducted fairly.
Fairness to Workers.
First and foremost it was provided
that there should be no unfair COM
petition in sweating profits out of the
underpaid labor of overworked men
and women or out of the labor OF
children. Second, there should be no
competition in dishonest business
methods, whereby the cheat and the
rogue would profit at the expense OF
honest men.
The Government did not itself at
tempt to write the new rules of the
game. It called upon the representa-
tives of business to write their owr
Evening star., 1934-09-06

rules, which the Government would
approve If they were really fair and in
the public interest It called upon the
representatives OF labor to assist In
writing rules to insure fair wages and
working conditions. And the law pro-
vided that employers and employees
should each be free to organize and to
select their representatives and to
associate themselves for self help and
for cooperation In promoting COM
mon interests. The law provided that
the restraints imposed by the anti
trust acts should no longer prevent
employers from organizing for such
purposes and that restraints imposed
by employers should no longer prevent
employees from organizing.
1t is difficult to imagine any pro-
gram that would be more simple and
practical than this industrial recov-
cry program. 1t was not. based on
any abstract theory or any visionary
hope Of restoring industrial health by
magic formula. The program was
