 However, more than 100 work CTS struck at the Atomic Energy Commissions Monsanto Labora- tory at Miamisburg, Ohio, near Dayton, in a demand for a 30- cent-an-hour wage increase and other benefits.

Color TeIevision Sets
Go in Production;
Programs TO Triple
BY The Asscciofed Press

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Mar.
26.-Radio Corp. of America
launched commercial production
of color television sets yesterday
and the National Broadcasting
Co. simultaneously reported
plans for trebling it's color pro-
gramming by the end of 1854.
RCA's first commercial color
set--it has made several hundred
experimental models-is an open
face console with a 15-inch tri-
color tube giving 1912 inch
picture and selling for $1,000.
Joseph B. Elliott, executive
vice president in charge of con-
sumner products, said that during
the remainder of the year RCA
would make 5000 of the 15-inch
sets and 5000 more with it's new
l9-inch color tube to go into
commercial production in July.
He forecast that the demand for
color sets would exceed the sup
ply this year and next, with
volume for the industry gradu-
ally rising to 5 million annually
in 1858.
He said it would be three to
five years before $500 sets with
l9-inch to 2l-inch picture tubes
would be available-the price
and size he declared were needed
to appeal to the mass markets.
Meanwhile, he predicted. early
sets would be purchased by GUS
toners able to buy luxury auto
mobiles.
