Radios Are Ideal Cliffs
 This Year

Fer that extra special member on your Christmas list. why not get a new radio? The very newest thing in radios this year is frequency modulation band similar to the short bands. Although there are no stations sending out the new type of broadcasts here as yet, more and more are going on the air all the time. Frequency modu- lation is the very new type of broadcasting which produces con cert halln performance with practi- cally no static.
 The real music lovers will well come nothing as much as beauti- ful radio photograph combination. A model with the frequency modu- lation band for the radio and a per- manent-point sapphire needle for the photograph is the very best to be had. The model which has these advantages also features an auto matic record changer, which per- mits complete concert without extra adjustments.
 If you want to give radio-phono- graph to some fortunate friend this Christmas by all means give the kind with beautiful cabinet which, when closed looks like a period designed piece of furniture. A con- venient feature to insist upon is rscord-storage cupboards built right into the cabinet.
 A convenient feature on some of the new radios is indication of for eign stations by names of the coun- tries themselves. With these indi- cations only little fishing is necessary to find stations in the country of your choice.

Government officials said yester-
