Radio COMMISSION TO STAND FIRM ON RADIOOHANGES Reallocation Made for Good of All, Assertion of Caldwell. BY O. H. CALDWELL Federal Radio Commissioner Shall the radio broadcasting situation be cleaned up now and for all time—and good radio reception be restored to our millions of listeners ? Or shall radio be allowed to slip back to the confusion of interference and heterodynes which have beset the broadcasting waves for the last two years? That is the issue before the radio listeners of the United States during the next thirty days. For on ; Nov. 11, the public will have within its grasp a radio set-up with reduced number of stations, for which the people, congress and radio folk generally patiently have awaited all these many months. So far as the federal radio commission is concerned, the re-alloca-tion—exactly as ordered by congress, but embodying sound radio principles—will go through as ;m----nounced, on the morning of Nov; 11. There will be no turning back or postponement by the commission. There will be no compromise of the public’s or listener’s interests by the radio representatives at Washington. The commission is determined to stand firmly on its order, affecting big and little broadcasters alike, and to bring back to the American people good radio reception, equitably apportioned throughout the nation as required by law. Yet from now till Nov. 11, it is likely that public sympathy will be appealed to by some few selfish broadcasters and that the aid of groups of listeners themselves will be sought by specious arguments that this or that station is to have its service unduly cut. On such selfish appeals listeners, in their own are urged to withhold them judgment, and certainly their participation. For investigation will show that the allocation assignments, as made, are generally fair and equitable to all—and have been arranged solely So as to secure the fullest possible service to all listeners in each state and section. If minor injustices have crept in, as between the hours or position of DRINK WATER TO HELP WASH OUT POISON If Your Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers You, Begin Taking Salts. When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore don’t get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts (Which helps to remove the body’s urinous waste and stimulate them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of good water —you can’t drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined witth lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this; also keep up the water drinking and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache.—Advertisement.

Few programs presented by WFBM have met with the cordial reception accorded the first Marmon hour last week. The warmth’ of the response from the unseen audience .has made the Marmon Motor Car Company, sponsors of the program, determined to keep up the high quality of entertainment given last week. Accordingly, the program to be presented tonight at 8 o’clock, will offer the cast available talent in Indianapolis musical circles. Orchestral and vocal numbers will make up the presentation. -** a a a A medley of old songs by von Tilzer will be sung by the Sylvanla Foresters during the program to be broadcast through the NBC System tonight at 7:30. ana a a a A concert will be given by the United Military Band at 9:30 tonight through stations of the Columbia Broadcasting “Under the Double Eagle,” a well-known march by Wagner, is the first number on this program. a a a a a a QUESTIOf, I have an Acme No. 4 ”B" eliminator for alternating current which always worked satisfactorily until last night, when the transformer heated ud so much that the pitch ran out of the transformer box. This did not make any apparent difference in the operation of the set. however. Can you tell me what the trouble might be ana how to repair it?— G. B. . ANSWER—It may be an indication that a few turns inside the transformer have become short-circuited. Current circulates In these windings because of the low resistance, causing the transformer to heat indirectly as a result of this circulating current, or if the shorts is in the primary of the transformer, more current from the line flows and* causes the tansformer to heat up. The only remedy, if the trouble persists, is to replace the transformer. a a a a a a A group of old English songs will be sung by a soprano and a male octet during the Wayside Inn program to be broadcast through WJZ of the NBC System tonight at 9:30. a a a a a a Song hits from “The Firefly,” “Lady Be Good,” “Irene,” “Mary,” and “Oh Kay,” will be featured in the program to be offered by the NR Millionaires from stations of the Columbia Broadcasting System at 8 o’clock tonight. The program opens with the NR theme song, “Feel Like a Million,” played by the orchestra with quartet interludes.

Another sixty-minute program of dance music from the Hotel Manger grill will be broadcast by Hal Kemp and his orchestra through the NBC system tonight at 10. a a a a a a Frederick Wyatt, baritone, and Stefano di Stefano, harpist, will be the soloists with the Jeddo Highlanders during the program to be broadcast through the NBC system tonight at 6. a a a a a a “Old Man River,” the Negro medley hit of the Ziegfeld production “Show Boat,” will be'a feature of the Palmolive hour to be broadcast through the NBC system tonight at 8:30. Olive Palmer’s solos are to be “The Nightingale,” by Abieff, and "A Fairy Story by the Fire.” With Paul Oliver she will sing the soprano and tenor duet, “To Know You Is to Love You,” from “Hold Everything.” The tenor alone will sing Tschaikowsky's “None but the Lonely Heart.”

this station and that station, simple and direct methods are prcvided by the law for getting quickly at the facts, by having testimony on all sides presented before the body of five commissioners, so that following such public hearing, each situation can be adjusted fairly in the best public interest. Os course there will be timesharing and time reductions for individual stations. Os course some stations will find themselves with lower wave-lengths than before. And of course there will be some power cuts. All these will follow in any rearrangement of 600 stations by which only 315 will hereafter be permitted on the aLr simultaneously —as good radio requires. And obviously also, if we are going to utilize all our ninety channels fully, the efficient (if less-popular) highfrequencies will have to carry their share, and some stations will thus be “moved down.” But the stations so shifted will have the future compensation of “getting out” with their programs to larger audiences than ever before. Only by reducing the number of stations that are simultaneously broadcasting on our ninety channels can radio be reclaimed from the heterodynes that have continued since the 1926 breakdown of the law. Every radio fan and every radio listener knows this. And after trying ever other expedient the radio commission has finally, as a body, recognized this fact, and now upon sound engineering principles has erected the reallocation ordered for Nov. 1. Broadcasters big and little are asked to cooperate in the public interest and to accept their new positions and portions, in the inevitable solution of the problem. To the credit of the broadcasters as a whole, be it said that they generally recognize the scientific necessity, and the unpleasant duty imposed on the commission, and'all but very few have willingly accepted the sacrifices entailed. f Lincoln Letters Are Sold By United Brest NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—Four letters written by Abraham Lincoln brought $6,400 at an auction of manuscripts here.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

STUMP BACKS FARM BODY'S RELIEF_ IDEAS Senatorial Candidate to Stand Squarely on Party Platform. Support of farm relief legislation embodying principles of the Mc-Nary-Haugen bill was promised the Indiana I’arm Bureau Federation by Albert Stump, Democratic nominee for United States senator, in a reply to the bureau’s questionnaire, it was learned today. Stump’s reply to the other question asked him: “Are you favorabl to a continuation of the present feredal estates tax?” likewise was in the affirmative in line with the farm bureau’s opposition to repeal of the tax. Declaring the farm organization still stands “firmly committed” to enactment of a law similar to the McNary-Haugen bill, the bureau’s questionnaire asked Stump: “Would you favor and vote for the enactment of a federal law that would make the tariff effective on agricultural commodities of which we produce an exportable surplus by spreading the costs and losses incufred in marketing such surpluses over all the marketed units thereof as set out in the principles of the McNary-Haugen bill?” Stump replied he would work for enactment of such a measure, and added: “The platform of the Democratic party, I feel, ties the party to the principles of this method of farm relief. I stand squarely on that platform.” The senatorial candidate said he did not feel that a candidate should “commit himself definitely to the details of specific legislation in advance of the discussion of those subjects in the legislative councils” but might rightly express his views and state the principles to which he would adhere.

CITES LESUPS HOPE Pastor-Candidate Indorses Herbert Hoover. By Times Special FRANKLIN, Ind., Oct. 17.—“ Harry Leslie’s only chance is to ride in on the tail of Hoover’s kite,” declared the Rev. J. Orr Powell, nonpartisan candidate for Governor in an address here in which he deplored the fact that the Governor and President are chosen in the same election. “The gubernatorial candidate should stand on his own merit,” said Mr. Powell, “and should be elected in the off-presidential year.” The speaker indorsed Herbert Hoover for President. Ke said “both Leslie and his opponent are disqualified for the high office of Governor if their accusations against one another are true.” The nonpartisan candidate advocated twelve months’ pay for school teachers, a free school book law, economy in state expenditures, improved management of state penal and charitable institutions, a decisive primary, old age pension law, adequate highway police force and rigid law enforcement.

LITTLE THEATRE TO PLAY FOR TEACHERS Playhouse to Be Scene of ‘Command’ Performances of Noel Coward’s ‘Hay Fever’ for Three Nights. T jay FEVER,” Noel Coward’s well-known comedy success, with which xl the Indainapolis Little Theatre closed its season last March, will be revived the last three nights of this week at the Playhouse, Nineteenth and North Alabama streets, by request of many teachers throughout the state, who will be in convention in Indianapolis the last of this week. When the Little Theatre presented this comedy last spring, it was the first time the play was produced in this country outside of New York city. Due to its popularity at that time three additional performances had to be scheduled to the original five, so rhat an aggregate audience of 1,760 persons witnessed “Hay Fever” at its first production in Indianapolis

Mr. Coward describes his play as “light” comedy, and it is just that. It contains brilliant dialogue, clever situations, both of which contribute strongly to its genuine humor. The play opens in the house of the Blisses—a family consisting of four temperaments, Judith Bliss, an ex-actress, Sorel Bliss, her daughter, a romantic; Simon Bliss, her son, a caricaturits, and David Bliss, her husband, a well-known novelist. Unknown to the remainder of the family, each has invited his or her particular guest down for the week-end. Complications develop and the comedy scintillates when the four guests arrive at the home of this self-centered family, so entirely lacking in social diplomacy. The entire production will be under the direction of George Somnes, who has just returned from two months on the continent, where he has been studying recent stage developments and ventures. He announces that the same cast will appear in this production as last spring, with the exception of Charles Dosch and Lieutenant Dusenbury, who are out of the city. Mrs. Ruth Pratt Bobbs will be seen as the retired actress, who is given to making melodrama out of the most commonplace happenings, in which role she appeared so successfully last spring. Mrs. Edward S. Norvell is again cast as the daughter, and George Bailey as the novelist-father. The roles of the four guests, a most heterogeneous group to bring together. will be played by Miss Rosamond Van Camp, Volney Hampton, Miss Henrietta Qrr and Hamilton Clarke. Mrs. Rowland Allen will appear in her former character part as the Irish maid. Other theaters today offer; “The Imperfect Lady” at English’s, birthday vaudeville bill and feature movie at the Lyric, “The Singing Ffcol” at the Apollo, “Hei Cardboard Lover” at Loew’s Palace, Charlie Every Trace of Asthma Gone Suffered All His Life.

EMPLOYMENT IS SHOWNON CAIN More Workers Get Jobs in Last Month. By Times Special WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.—From two sources word came to the Labor department today that employment conditions are improving steadily. From State and regional directors good conditions were reported for September with every indication that they wpuld continue in October. Reports from a selected list of industries showed that employment increased 1.5 per cent in September and pay rolls increased 1.3 per cent. Employment for September was given as 87.3 per cent of normal, that of the year 1923 being considered as normal or 100 per cent. Pay rolls were 91.4 per cent of normal. Employment, however, was still 1 per cent less than in September, 1927. According to the directors’ reports, plants manufacturing autos and auto accessories, metal working establishments, road construction and building construction were working full time and in some cases leporting shortages of labor.
