In the Stock Market

(Bv Thomson & McKlnnom NEW YORK, Sept, 17.—These days you read a good deal about economics and what the market should do and has not done according to well-established laws. Ac- ; cording to-theory the market has been a sort of an outlaaw for a couple of years. We recommend that the scholarly theorists give a . little more time to the business items in the newspapers and interpret these from a human rather than an economic standpoint. For instance, in Saturday’s paper we .read of a twelve-story building costing $2,000,000 and only nine years old, to be wrecked and replaced by a thirty-four-story building which we assume will cost about ten times the old one. This may not be strictly according to economic law, but it is the story of the United States, the story of the public confidence, the story of the greatest market in history. TJhe one weak spot, and the one that will cause trouble. If trouble follows, is the tendency to overspeculate. We believe if each individual will do his part in keeping pyramids down all will be well. If you have a single share that is likely to give you discoomfort, sell it.

City Woman Writes Plea for Cincy Radio Stations

Indianapolis Needs WSAI and WLW, Commission Is Told. Recent decision of the Federal Radio Commission with regard to broadcasting by stations WLW and WSIA of Cincinnati has aroused a storm of protest among Indianapolis listeners, who depend for a large share of their entertainment on these stations. Mrs. Robert B. Hill, Apt. 912, at 2035 N. Meridian St., has sent the following communication to Judge Ira H. Robinson of the Federal commission, she informed The Times today: “Dear Sir: The writer realizes that tlfe Federal Radio Commission is trying hard to do just the right thing in the matter of changing power allotments and frequencies of a large percentage o fthe broadcasting stations in the country, and I am thoroughly appreciative of the work they are trying to do. “However, I do not believe the commission has taken into full consideration the importance of Stations WLW and WSAI of Cincinnati to this section of the country, by placing these two excellent stations on the same frequency. “This, of course, would mean the elimination of one jf these stations, and, I understand, the cutting down of the power of the other. If this plan is carried out, it will be a considerable loss to this section. “This part of Indiana does not get Chicago stations at all well, nor Cleveland or Detroit stations. We

do get one or two Chicago stations but not strong, and they are usually more or less choppy. In clear, cool weather we, of cuorse, do get many other stations usually getting KDKA, WGY, WJZ and WEAF direct, and fairly steady. "However, there are weeks at a tlmr in the summer when we do not get any of these stations at all and I believe that I am right in saying that this section of the country depends upon Stations WLW and WSAI for their radio entertainment. “These stations are both major ones—WLW broadcasting the National Broadcasting programs from WJZ, and WSAI broadcasting the National Broadcasting programs from WEAF, and in addition to bringing these high-class programs from the National Broadcasting Company, they also give us excellent programs from their home studios. “Furthermore, the important thing is, as far as we are concerned, that day in and day out, these fine stations come to us clearly—no fading, no weakness—so we are truly dependent upon them, and enjoy being so. “Both WLW and WSAI always broadcast programs in a dignified and intelligent manner, and a:, stated above, I believe it will be a great loss to this section if we are compelled to lose one of them. “Therefore, I sincerely trust that the radio commission will reconsider carefully the matter of Stations WLW and WSAI, and make some arrangement whereby these two stations are given the proper allotment of power they deserve, and of course a separate frequency.”
