GROVE, Inc. 1210 G St. APPEAL TO FANS PROVES SUCCESS Congress Being Deluged With Letters Urging Support of Copyright Bills. A large portion of the radio fan mail of the country is being directed this week to Congress. As a result of the appeal made over the American Telephone and Tele- graph chain of stations on Sunday night by Paul B. Klugh, general sec- retary of the National Assoclation of Broadcasters, practically every mem- ber of Congress is the recipient of a daily bundle of letters from his con- stituents asking him to support the Dill-Vestal copyright bills which are slated for congressfonal discussion next month. Response Widespread. Although the great majority of the radio fans of the country probably were not aware of the existence of such measures, the appeal of M Klugh in which he outlined the pur- pose of the two bills and announced that the assoclation of broadcasters 18 desirous of their passage, brought an, immediate response from the radio fans in all parts of the country. Fortunately for the alms of Mr. Klugh and the members of his organi- zation, reception on Sunday night was well above the average and the ap- peal made through a number of sta- tions simultaneously is believed to have been heard by a majority of the Sabbath evening radio audience. In addition to Mr. Klugh's address, other leading stations, not included in the chain, but which are membe: of the broadcasters’ assoclation, are participating in the national campaign to set forth the provisions of the Dill-Vestal bills and urge the listen- ers to bring pressure to bear on their Congressmen. The action by the association of broadcasters on Sunday marks the first time that broadcasting stations have ever used their Instruments in such a general way to sway public opinion. Representatives of the or. ganization, however, stated that by outlining the provisions of the bill, listeners were given an opportunity of making up their own minds as to the desirability of its passage as now written. WRC WILL BROADCAST “A STEP ON THE STAIRS” Seventh Episode of Serial Mystery Drama Going on Air Next Tuesday Night. venth episode of the serial drama, “A Step on_ the will be broadcast by the WRC Pla)flru through station WRC next Tuesday night.

TALKS WITH VESSELS ANYWHERE IN WORLD Rugby Station, Recently Erected in England, Conducts Successful Experiments on Wide Scale. Experiments have proved the pre- diction that radio communication can be established with ships on the high seas_in any part of the world from the Rugby station, recently erected in England, according to a statement made by Sir Mitchell.-Thomson, Brit- ish postmaster general, in the House of Commons. Advices to the Department of Com- merce, concerning the Mitchell-Thom- son statements, also attribute to the postmaster general the information that the opening of other services from Rugby is under consideration.
