C., WEDNESDAY, RADIO CENSUS PROVES BIG DISAPPOINTMENT Count for 34 States Shows Only | 4,168,510 Reported—Industry Says 15,000,000 in Use. Uncle Sam's “nose count” of radio recelving sets in the United States, taken last year as a part of th> regular population eensus, is proving most- dis- appointing to the radio industry. Already reports have been computed by the United States Census Bureau covering 34 States and the District of Columbia, with only 4,168,510 receiving scts reported. The industry had esti- mated that some 15,000,000 sets were in use. It must be pointed out, however, that among the 14 States unaccounted for are the most populous areas in the country, and therefore the most “radio- minded.” These include such States as New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Cali- fornia, Ohio, Missouri and New Jersey, and when these returns are computed the total dcubtless will be swelled con- siderably. At best, nevertheless, radio officials now feel that the census will hardly show more than 10,000.000 sets. On that basis it is expectzd that between 40 and 50 per cent of the families of the country will report sets as of last April 1, when the population census was taken. (Copyright, 1931).

ILDRED JOHNSON, Columbia contralto and r of the Ca- thedral Hour, conducted an | orchestra in a theater in Key West, Fla., in_her 'teens, and and at 13 she gave her first publio piano_recital. By the time she began the study of voice at 16 she had a thorough musica} education. Six months af.er her first lesson Miss Johnson became contralto soloist at Mrs. E. H. Harriman's chapel in Arden, N. Y. The following season she sang at the Chester Hill M. E. Church in Mount Vernon, N. Y., where she re- mained for three years, part of this time she was -also soloist at Temple Beth-El in New York City. Moving to DPetroit shorily afterward she continued as a church soloist for severa! years. She sang in many oratorios and special services at St. Paul's Cathedral in that city and also busied karself with club and concert work. When radio Station WGHP was opened in Detroit Mis§ Johnson was | one of the few local artists engaged for the opening night; most of the talent was brought from New York for the occasion and included many nationally known names in the world of music. Subsequently she became a staff artist with the statiop, singing novelty and recital programs, musical plays, a series of “national nights” consisting of music of different countries and, for the entire season, leading operatic roles with the WGHP Operatic Ensemble, Miss Johnson was born in Frankfort, N. Y., on October 10, 1900, a member | of a family with several generatlons contributing to & musical tradition. Her parents started her in the study of plano at the age of 6, and, although she now devotes most of her talent to singing, she still does some concert piano work and is busy as an accom- panist. ok ox % HISPERING Jack Smith, who has | been on a tour of England, is | back in the United States and has | resumed his song periods on Columbia. | Walter Damrosch has gone to his Sum- | mer home at Bar Harbor, Me., to work | out the details of his next N.

RADIO TEN NEW STATIONS Deletions and Consolidations, How- ever, Hold Total Number to 615. Although the “Standing Room: ©Only” sign has adorned the doors af “he Fed- eral Radio Commission for several years, 10 new stations managed to squirm into the theater of the air dur- ing the past fiscal year. Thess applicants were successful among several thousand who tried to crash into the radio picture. Records made available today show that during the 1931 fiscal year, which ended June 30, exactly 10 new stations were licensed. But the same records show that there are just about the same number of stations on the air now as there were a year ago, by virtue of de- letions and consolidations. Today the figure stands at 615. ‘The commission has been telling the world all along that the broadcast band 18 crammed full. Despite these repeated announcements, the number of applica- tions for new stations recetved contin- ues unabated. During the 1931 fiscal year some 25,000 applicatiors of every character were received, of which a goodly portion were for new stations, including broadcasting, commercial, tel- | evision and amateur. . New Orleans Pick-Up. The business of the port cf New Or- leans has shown some healthy strides in the past few months. The activity on the water s2ems to have gone far ahead of any recent month, and the indica- tions are that it will continue to grow. The inter-harbor navigation, which connects Lake Poncharirain with the Mississippi River, showed continued ac- tivity and progress. In the movement of freight for the menth of April every commodity that passes through the ity | was represented on the lists. Major Radio Feature: CLASSICAL. Mme. Frances Alda, WRC, 6:15.
