Fishing The Air BY LEONARD E. PEARSON AN references sre Central Standard Tima

The time is approaching for the showdown on the local radio situation. It will come Thursday morning at 8:30, when H. A. Bellows. Federal radio commissioner for this district, will conduct a hearing at the Claypool Hotel. WFBM has applied to the commission for anew wave length and 1,000 watts power. Some fans especially want the Power and Light station to have the increased power, and there are those who simply 1 want Indianapolis to have a stronger broadcaster, not caring particularly who controls it On the other side are those opposed to any powerful station for the community, while others seem FARMER WOMAN IN OKLAHOMA Praises Lydia E. Pinkham’sVegetable Compound Because It Gave Her Health and Strength In a sunny pasture in Oklahoma, herd of sleek pows was grazing.

They made a pretty picture. But the thin woman iix the blue checked apron sighed as she looked ' -at them. She was tired of cows, tired of her tedious work iir'lhe dairy. She was tired of cooking for a houseful of

boarders, besides caring for her own family. The burdens of lifo seemed too heavy for her failing health. She had lost confidence In herself. _ One day she began taking Lydia E. Pinkham’a Vegetable Compound and her general health began to improve. She took It faithfully. Now ehe can do her work without any trouble, sleeps well and Is no longer blue and'tired. This woman, Mru. Cora Short, R. It. 9, Box 387, Oklahoma City, Okla., writes: “Everybody now says: ‘Mrs. Short, what are you doing to yourself?* I weigh 1311 and my weight before I took it was 116. I have laken seven bottle* of the Vegetable Compound." „ Are you on the Sunlit Read to Betty Health?

to have some grudge against WFBM but are willing* for another to operate with higher wattage. WXBF Is not wishing to make trouble, Its management says, but had hoped It might enjoy any privileges another local radiophone might be granted- It, too, has applied for Increased wattage. Both stations have signified their Intention of moving their transmitters outside the city 4f given higher power. Each is confident that it could do better under moree desirable conditions than it has been able to In the past with only 250 watts- There Is a feeling that Indiana has been discriminated against In the assignments made to its broadcasters. The big thing, after all, Is to give the listeners what they want, and both stations are willing to accept any just decision made on such a basis. That is the reason Bellows is coming here. While it Is not to be expected that a decision will be reached at this week’s conference, what develops there will hLve a large part In molding the action that follows. Fishing the Air will be pleased to receive his readers’ views on this or any other matter at any time. If you are Interested in radio—* whether you have your pet station, the city or the entire State—it is your duty and your opportunity to express your viewpoint to the commission. If you cannot attend the hearing in person, send Commissioner Bellows an expression of your opinion befpre this meeting. The future of broadcasting in Indiana, and especially in Indianapolis, depends largely on you. Receiving sets seeem to be In proportion to population, the most populated States having the greatest number of the 6,333,950 radios that are estimated to serve some 20,000,000 listeners.
