STAR, ‘WASHINGTON, 1000000 RECORD | PRICE FOR WEAF Long Time'May Elapse Be- fore Another Brings So High a Figure. The price of $1,000.000. paid by the Radio Corporation of Amerlca for sta- tion WHAF, set¢ a new high record in sales of broadcasting plants which, it it believed, will stand for a good lnuh\' ears. In selifng out for such a price, the American Telephone and Telegraph Co. is viewed as being able to retire from broadcasting activities with a finanelal as-well as a scientific success to its credit. Far Exceeds Former Prices. " Formerly a quarter of a million dol- lars was considered a fancy price for 3 | almost any up-and- coming broadcast- ing station, and in only two or three instances has it been reported as the approximate amount involved in the transfer of transmitter, equipment and good will. A half million wus more recently rumored to be the price set by the owners of one of the lead- ing stations in the Middle West for its outfit, but no bids were forth- | coming. WEAF, however, has held an en- wiable position in the broadcasting fraternity, and, despite the greater power output of some of the other plants, has for many years been lookad upon as the most desirable sta- tion In the world.
