Tt is appropriate, therefore, that the public should immedi- ately receive the benefit of these economies in the form of substantial reduction of prices. The Radio Corporation of America announces these reductions in the face of a heavily increased demand for Radiotrons. Few precedents exist in the history of industry for reducing prices at a time of increased demand for manufactured products. action is taken, however, in accordance with the estab- lished RCA policy to enable the public to obtain full ‘This and immediate benefit from the high standards of manufacturing efficiency developed through research of the Radio Corporation of America and its manu- facturing associates and from the vast expansion of demand for RCA products.

Therefore I su mit the following plan: That one week WCAP could remain silert until 10 p.m.; the next week it would be WRC's turn to be silent until 9:55 p.m. Further, that both stations agree to sign off one night a week each at 10:05 p.m. This plan provides for the retrans- mission of time signals and the weather report by WRC. As no night would be entirely silent, this plan is a sort of compromis ROUBERT W. SEICHREST, 508 1st street southeast.
