Othman: Petrillo Erred When 2 He Told Congress to Go Jump,

He operated on the theory that nobody should toot a horn, saw a fiddle, or pound the ivories for pay unless hé bought a union card.

FM is a new system of sending music through the air and it needs a new kind of transmitter and receiver. It is supposed to sound better than the old-fashioned radio to which we have been listening these many years, And the broadcasters agreed it would become one of the big post-war industries.
