MANUFACTURE OF RADIOEQUIPMEN A NEW INDUSTRY Cent‘In Demand In Two ; Years eae 206,000 TUBES A’ MONTH Chicago, May 2.—(\By the A.-P.)=pA new imlanct maustry, we manuiactire of radio equipment, has sprung up with an amazing growth w-tuin a year and much of it within au lew recent weeks. From w few mianutacturing shops a year ago to thousanus now, an increase of sixty thousand per cent m demand in two years; a business in which poth boys and great jmanu- facturers are taking profits; all this is the romance of the new industry. ‘the. demand which called it into existence is at present as tremendous ag it has been sudden. The new, small concerns manufacturing radio supplies are estimated by the itadio Corpora- tuon of America as numbering thou- sands. Figures of the same corpor- ation show that whereas two years ago 4,000 tubes a year were in de- mand this year probably 200,000 tubes a month will be called for, Reports gathered from a number of states by’ the ‘Associated Press show that many boys and other amateurs are constructing and selling outiits. ‘Three years ago three boys in Chi- cago sixteen and seventen years old, began to make radio outfits. They are now-incorporated and carrying -on a large business. ..'Their success indi- cates the alluring possibilities in this new industry of, adventure. Its al- leged hazards were pointed out in the- prediction of an official of one of the older and larger electrical supply houses that if all the concerns now engaged in making radio equipment would remain in the’ énterprise, be- fore long parts would become a drug on the market and that by October. 1 the makers of complete sets would actively be soliciting business. Behind: in Filling Orders.” That such a situation would be a) reversal of present’ conditions is in- dicated in the report of another largo supply house that it is two, months behind in filling its orders and word from all parts of the country of a great shortage in apparatus. The huge demand is ascribed to the practice of free broadcasting. Thera are now 600,000 receiving sets in theUnited States, according to the estimates of several companies. Of these 100,000 were said to be in the middle west, and 15,000 to 26,000, ac- cording to varying estimates, in ‘Chi- cago. t Dealers declared that the sudden- ness of growth of this infant industry and the fact that the number of plants varies from day to day make it im- possible accurately to guage its pro- portions. One dealer. said that it was impossible to estimate with any. cer- tainty, the extent of the demand, in- asmuch, as buyers in. their eagerness Ata get equipment soon ‘as possible are ‘placing. orders. with dozens of . dealers at once, and purchasing from the first dealer who is ready to deliv- er, For that reason, it was stated, what might seem to be a demand in- volving $30,000,000, might resolve. it- self into a demand involving $2,000,- 000. “There are: more bootleggers in the radio. business than in the whiskey business,” one dealer asserted. ‘“Peo- ple get hold of parts and sell them for exorbitant prices; I have known a sin- gle tube which is tegularly sold for '$5 to bring $15. Some of these spuri- ous dealers come in and try to bribe our clerks to get them parts.” ‘Aviators Supply Food To Sailors Riga, Latvia, May 2.—The crews - of four German. steamers which for’ weeks were ice bound in the Gulf of Riga were supplied regularly with fresh bread by Latvian military avia- tors. _ Fishermen reported the vessels running short of provisions. and air- men from Riga made trips every few days carrying food for the sailors, the bread being dropped in sacks on .the ice near the hemmed-in steamers, ‘Napoleon Bonaparte declared, “The only happiness lies in sleep.” Africa 1s third in area of the world’s continents.
