GOV SHITHOVES ADORESSTONEAT “A Message to the American People” Is Text of Indi- ‘cated Plea for Unity. Aside from a variety of musical fea- tures, radio’s principal attraction to- night will be the address of Gov. Alf!‘edl E. Smith, which WRC will broadcast at | 8 o'clock in conjunction with its asso- ciated stationS. “A Message to the American People” is the announced topic of Gov. Smith's radio speech, and reports from New York indicate that it will be devoted largely to a plea for party unity. WRC's other leading attractions in- clude the Eveready hour and the weel.'y concert of the Clicquot Eskimos. The Evercady program will be an historical play, depicting five episodes in the life of Joan of Arc. These epi- sodes, falling into as many distinct phases of her career, will be produced as separate acts, beginning with Joan's visitation by her “voices” and endint with_the historic trial and execution a% Rouen. Rosaline Greene, whose work both on the stage and in radio has established her position among the country’s new dramatic stars, will play the part of Joan of Arc. Assisting her will be Frederick Forrester, Wheeler Dryden and Kathryn Claire. The play will have a musical background pro- vided by a symphony orchestra, an octet of male voices and a quartet of female voices. Dance music predominates the pro- gram of the Eskimos. “Farmette, “Doin’ the Raccoon, Blue Shadows” | and a medley of musical comggy hits are some of the selections. ! WMAL's leading features tonight will be provided by the Columbia broad- casting system. Three of these are scheduled. Thev are a radio version of the opera Fille de Mme. Angot,” by the United Light Opera Co.; “Night Club Romanc and “Thirty Minute | Men." A few of the romances of New York night clubs will be toll in the “Night Club" episode, which will have a musical setting in keeping with the nature of the broadcast. The “Thirty Minute Men" are specialists in modern- ized rhythms, an dtheir program will be. ictly popular. Anna Lang, a “blues” singer, also will take part. The regular merchants’ music and the Radio Movie Club are WMAL's featured attractions of local origin.

Charges that the Rhode Island Ave- nue Citizens’ Association has used im- proper methods in attempts to secure & junior high school in its section and that it has encroached on territory within_the jurisdiction of the Brook- land Citizens' Association were made by individual members at a meeting of the latter body last night in Northeast Masonic Hall. . The Rhode Island Avenue body was also charged with endeavoring to stir up dissension among the four neigh- boring citizens’ associations in the Northeast section. Specifically, they were charged with inviting residents in Brookland to affiliate with the Rhode Island Avenue group, despite an agree- ment with the Brookland organization that such action would not be taken; and with attempting to secure addi- tional members improperly in order to persuade the Board of Education to locate a new junior high school at Eighteenth and Irving streets north- east, instead of at Eighteenth and Perry streets, a site favored by the Brookland, Michis Park and Dahl- gren Terrace assoations. A resolution to request the Rhode Island Avenue Association for a com- plete exchange list of its me: Jers was not passed. In the absence of the president, C. B. Phelps presided at the meeting.

BY MARTN CODEL. So much conflicting testimiony is bt- ing recelved about the effects of the broadcast reallocation that it is im- possible to particularize this early. That is a matter for continued local scrutiny. In the main, the reports being re- cetved by the Federal Radio Commission are commendatory. Improvement seems to_be marked in many cities. The rural communities have been slow to report results, but confidence prevailed at the commission today that the mails would bring favorable comment from the peo- ple who should benefit mc ' bv the reallocation. ‘The most gratifyino thing about the whole project at its present stage, in the minds of several members of the com- mission, is the serious effort being made by the varicls stations to co-operate by improving as well as readjusting their equipment. Station engineers in general are highly favorable toward the basic reallocation plan, even though their own fortunes are often adversely affected by the rigid requirements as to wave length charees and time divisions. The theory of the plan now more tk eve ' seems wholly sound to the com- mission’s engineers. - Dr, J. H. Del- linger, technical chief, and Capt. Guy Hills, engineer in charge of the reallo- cation, cite their own local observations as proof that they have pursued the right path. Both report excellent re- sults here in Washington the -5t night of i reallocation. Feel Work Practical. They are absclutely confident that the theoretical set-up they devised after months of strenuous effort will be fully justified by the practical results. ‘These can best be observed, they both say, after a short period, during which the Nation's stations can readjust themselves and settle down. The members of the commission are elated with the reports already received. These are in the form of letters, tele- grams and editorial comment; for newspaper comment is always carefully watched here as the index to public reaction. . ‘The reports range from many exuber- ant congratulations to a few which con- tend that conditions have grown worse. Where the latter is the case there is an inclination to inquire into local or neighborhood factors in the multitudi- nous variables of radio to accpunt for the trouble. The commission again urged public patience for a full and fair test. No formal statement has been issued by the commission, for the reason, as ons member explained, that “every nar- ent is bound to see good in his child.” Informally, most of the commissioners tell of excellent reception personally ex- perienced here in Washington on the first night of the reallocation. Commissioner O. H. Caldwell pointed out that transmission seems to be espe- clally gcod on the cleared channels from 600 to 1,000 kilocycles.

New York City presented the first real controversy under the new set-up when the municipal station, WNYC, re- | fused to share operating hours with| | WMCA and went on- their mutually as signed channel with a full schedul. This ruined the latter’s Sunday night program. The~ were ordered by. the commission to alternate days of opera- tion with cach other until a hearing | will be held here Friday. The attitude of the New York offi- cials indicates this case may go in‘o the courts, adding another suit to the iangle of litigation in which the com- | mission is now involved. Mayor Walker | is said to oppose time sharing, and the authority of the commission as against that of municipality may be questioned in law. Otherwise early tests of New York recention were = reported gratifying. From Chicago came rather indefinite reports, but these indicated that wave length shifts by about 20 stations caused listeners there no more trouble than that of finding new dial settings. There were practically no renorts from the Pacific Coast on -Monday, according to | Commissioner La Fount of that zone. The commission is now turning its attention to the short-wave problem, a hearing on applications for frequencies to explore for minerals by radio being scheduled tomorrow and another on the television band for Wednesday. ‘The commission’s counsel, Louis G. Cald- well, has plunged into the WGY litiga- tion, which will come before the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia December 3. Mr. Caldwell has just returned from Chicago, where Federal Judge Wilker- son heard the commission’s annlication for an injunction to prevent WMBB- WOK from carrying out its announced | intention of going on the air in defi- ance of the commission’s order to the contrary.

RICH REWARD SEEN FOR RIGHT THINKING Christian Science Lecturer Advises Systematic Thought About God for Healing. A lecture on Christian Science was delivered last evening in First Church of Christ, Scientist, by Frank Bell, C. Mr. Bell is a| member of the board of lectureship of | the mother church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. | He was_introduced by Miss Anna M. Egenhoff, second reader of Fourth]| Church, under whose auspices the lec- ture was given. The lecturer said, in ar P2t you will begin as a systematic| daily practice to contemplate the essen- tial nature of God as best you can conceive of Him and definitely and in an orderly fashion to affirm' in your thought the reality of God's mature; if you will in like manner systematically and persistently deny the ential real- ity of all that is unlike the nature of infinite Spirit; if you will do this, not as a matter of vain repetition but with an earnest striving to bring into this activity some degree of conscious reali- zation of the actual presence and power of God, operating in and through you to bring into expression the essentials of His nature—you will find that, ask- ing bread, you will not be given a stone. “You will find, if 'your experience does | not differ from that of countless thou- sands of your fellow men, that the set- ting into operation of these processes of Christianly, scientific thinking will begin to be made manifest.in most | practical ways in- your experience, in healing of sickness, overcoming of sin, mssler{l of lack, suppression of dis- cord, elimination of fear.
