Washington homes should have
commercial television by the first OF
next year George Sandefer, assistant
to the general manager for televi-
sion for NBC OF Washington, prom
ised yesterday before luncheon
meeting Of the Women's Advertising
Club of washington at the Willard
Hotel.
The broadcastlng station will be
located at the Wardman Park Hote!
he added. While at present the
NBC station here receives television
service from its New York stations,
these broadcasts are limited to a
small studio audience, he explained.
A layman's picture Of the new
radio medium was presented clearly
by Mr.. Sandefer, who has just re-
turned from New York, where he
has spent the past four months
working and studying in MICS
Television Studios.
It is difficult to ascertain the price
Of television receivers at this time,
he said, but probable estimates are
rated at $50 and up, with one de
luxe model priced at, $4,000. Sets
will be available, he added, in areas
where there are television broad
casting stations.
A small town outside New York
was selected as "test town" by
NBC before the war, when 100
resident were pursuaded to buy tele-
vision sets, Mr.. Sandefer said, and
commented that the test of their
popularity came when NBC tried
without success to buy them back
after the war.
! In answer to the advertisers ques-
ton, what will television do to the
retailer, the speaker replied, "tele-
vision is a supersalesman's dream!
It will mean new advertising tech
niques, he explained, but these will
be worked out comparatively be-
tween the advertiser and the tele-
vision engineers. In the meantime
he added, the effectiveness of tele-
vision as an advertising medium is
still in the process of research.

such an agreement. It referred
to it in charging that ''some cir

China were consciously trying
to distort the real situation in
connection with the presence of
Soviet forces in Manchuria."
No word of such an agree

There seemed to be nothing IN the
world that Private Sawten couldn't
do. Around Manila, where he
served, they called him "the most
versatile man in the army"
One day, when an officer wanted
haircut and the barber was away,
Private Sawtell volunteered to do
the job.
Were you ever barber?" asked
the officer.
Eyes, SIR" replied Sawten, II
was a barber for three years."
A few days later another officer,
heartily tired Of the regular camp
rations, wanted a special dish pre-
pared.
II can prepare it, sir" said Pri-
vate Sawtell, saluting.
Did you ever cook?" he was
asked.
eyes, sir; three years expert

The dish was marvellous. Three
days later the coloneps horse threw
shoe. Sawten fixed it. After that
he was, successfully, dentist, letter.
writer, watch-repairer, leading ten
or in the camp show, and dozen
other things. In all these tasks he
claimed long experience, and in all
he served superlatively well.
One day the colonel called Saw
tell into his office.
"Sawtell," .<said the colonel, II
have a warrant for your arrest.
Seems you're badly wanted back in
the United States. You have been a
particularly valuable man, Sawten,
and hate to lose you, particularly
as you will have to 60 to prison."
"Oh, that's all right, colonel" re-
Piled Sawtell. 'I've had experience
-four years in Leavenworth."
