Wiz services from Engle- conference from the Marbel Col- o ar - Shadyeids Presbyierian’ Church The announcement of the licensing of 10 new broadcasting stations by the Department of Commerce brings the total stations on the air to 605. Of the newcomers 2 are located in New York State, Brooklyn and Buffalo getting 1 each, while the others are widely distributed, Texas, Michigan, Loufsiana, Pennsylvania, South Da: Kota, Indiana, Washington and New Jersey each gaining a new broad- caster. Some of the calls selected seem sig- nificant, but it is questionable what they wiil signify to the listeners. For example, WARS, chosen as the ether signature of the Amateur Radio Specialty Co. of Brooklyn, has a mar- shal sound. WHOG, the call letters of the new Huntington broadcasters in Indiana, does not imply that that station will use more time than seems appropriate in this jammed ether of ours. WCGU probably stands for “Wireless, Charles G. Unger,” the owner of the new Lakewood, N. J., statfon. Most_of the channels selected by these 10 newcomers are already in use by from 8 to 19 stations. Both KRAC and WKBY chose 220 meters, on which there are stations in Penn- sylvanta, Iilinols and Indiana, besides 6 more stations on the adjacent wave —218 meters. Station WHOG has se- lected 241.8 meters, not yet employed by any other broadcaster, but there are 18 stations on 240 and 9 on 242 meters. KGDA requested 254.1 meters, on which there are already 19 sta- tions operating, most of them in the Middle West. The new Michigan _transmitter, WKBZ, has selected 256.3 meters, where 12 others are located, 8 in the same State. The Brooklyn broad- caster WARS, on 295 meters, probably will interfere with 4 stations just below it and 5 slightly higher. WCGU, at Lakewood, N. J., likewise wili have trouble with 3 stations on a slightly lower channel and two im- mediately above. KRLD, at Dallas, 18 now on 357.1 meters, close to § Canadian _ broadcasters _on 856.9 meters. In Buffalo, WKBW may have trouble with 4 broadcasters on a wave scarcely a meter lower; one of which {8 KGO, with 20 kws. ' On 499 meters KRSC will have to fight inter- ference from 3 American and 1 Canadian stations Eo2sa SmIST-IoaDoRn bo ism FoooweRs ) S5058 e commeson comasseseoc: com All-American Test Suggested. The transatlantic radio tests are not to be held this year, according to recent announcements, but it will be unfortunate if no transcontinental tests are held, for many fans find it difficult to get stations on the oppo- site coai or borders when all the American stations are operating, un- less they sit up until 3 am. With 80 much station Interference it is dif- ficult, even late at night, to get dis- tant stations. It will be recalled that, following the silent periods last year, when fans listened for European broadcasters amid the squeals of radiating receiv- ers, other periods of silence were satisfactorily observed by American stations by alternate zones, running east and west and north and south. Many listeners were thus enabled to pick up distant stations for the first time while their neighboring broad- cast transmitters were silent for an hour or so. Some FEasterners had never heard Paclfic coast stations, or even Denver, while Northerners had never been able to pick up Cuba or Mexico, and so on. It was a treat for many to hear distant American, Canadian, Cuban and Mexican tions distinctly. It has been suggested that once a year this plan be followed, so that those who do not possess selective recelvers may have an opportunity to try for long-range stations, unimpeded local and interstation interference. All that is required is that some representative body: determins upon the dates and persuade all the East- ern stations to remain silent an hour or two for about thres nights. This would be followed by silence for a like period in the Central and Western States in turn. The plan also could be carried further by asking the North- ern and Southern stations to remain silent for similar perifods on other nights. The Biggest Radio Year. Judged by the earnings of the Ra- dlo Corporation of America for the fm nine months, the radio industry s enjoying its biggest year. The total R. C. A. business for the first three-quarters of 1926 amounted to $38,941,743, against $27,165,629 dur- ing the same period last year, In this industry the last quarter of the early ‘Winter months is always the best, so it is estimated that for the year the gross R. C. A. business will amount to about $60,000,000, bettering the rec- ord year of 1924 by about $10,000,000 and 1925 by about $14,000,000. R. C.

FORECASTS INCREASE IN HUMAN LIFE SPAN British Professor Says Eugenic Measures, Rather Than Hyglene, W1l Work Change. subjects.” By the Associated Press. LONDON, November 13 —Longer life for man is prophesied by Prof. Julian Huxley in an essay just pub- lished, in which he says: “By eugenic measures we could un- ! questionably raise the average span |of human life, even witheut further | progress in hyglene. If, as we may confidently predict, the present trend of affairs continues, more and more men will attain an advanced age, nat- urally or by rejuvenation. The death rate of infants and young people will continue to fall, Prof. Hux- ley predicts, and the birth rate will do likewise. “As @ result ‘®f this we shall in a few decades have a population in which the relative numbers of young |and old people will be quite differenc | from the present,” he believes.

C. -—Q RADIO GOSSIP AND NEWS 179,001 last year, when, it will be re- called, this corporation carried a def- fcit in the second and third quarters. Although increased business is re- flected in other large radio manufac- turing plants, announcements of earn- ings are lacking. But on the whole the reports received indicate a record year throughout the industry. The Atwater Kent plant is reported as struggling to meet demands by in: creasing its output to 5,200 receivers a day. Powell Crosley, ir., states that pro- duction of, receivers in his factories greatly exceeds that of last year, with the demand increasing instead of slow- ing up, as was the case last Novem- ber. He anticipates that the demand for tube sets will carry through until late next Spring. Army-Navy Game on Air.
