D5 BROADCAST STATIONS DROP FROM 612 TO 606 Commission's Annual Report Re- veals 1932 Figures in U. S. and Possessions. With 12 eliminated, 8 added and 2 consolidated, the number of broadcast- ing stations in the United States and its possessions dropped from 612 in 1931 to 606 at the end of June, 1932, the Federal Radio Commission reveals in its annual_report, just submitted to Congress. Practically all the new sta- tlons were small ones authorized in communities deemed not otherwise well served by radio. The great overcrowd- ing of the wave lengths served as a de- terrent to granting the hundreds of ap- plications for new stations received during the year. License renewals were denied to the following for various causes, and they were eliminated: WLBX, Long_Island City, N. Y.; WMAK, Buffalo; WKBO, Jersey City: WJAZ and WCHI, Chi- cago; WIBR, Steubenville, Ohio; KFUP, Denver; KFQW, Seattle, and KFQU, Holy City, Calif. The following volun- tarily surrendered their licenses: WPOE, Patchogue, N. Y.;; KFJY, Fort Dodge, Iowa, and KFIU, Juneau, Alaska. New stations were authorized as fol- lows, all but one having powers of 100 |to 250 watts only; KICA, Clovis, | N. Mex.; KIDW, Lamar, Colo.; WENC, | Americus, Ga.; WHEB, Portsmouth, N. | H.; WHEF, Kosciusko, Miss.; WJED. In- dianapolis; WMAS, Springfield, Mass., and WORK, York, Pa. (1,000 watts).

However, there appears no immediate cause for alarm. In its present form, this year’s Flu is generally mild and sometimes lasts only four or five days. i But take no chances! Colds pull down body resistance and often pave the way for pneumonia and other serious complications, For greatest safety and protection, follow Vicks Plan for better Control of Colds. Briefly, the Plan is this: TO BUILD RESISTANCE: Live normally—don rest and sleep. Eliminate regularly. Eat light, wholesome food. TO PREVENT MANY COLDS: At that first feeling of stuffiness or nasal irritation, sniffle or sneeze—Nature's usual warning t cold is coming on—use Vicks Nose & Throat Drops, the new aid in preventing colds. This will check many colds at the nose and throat—where most colds start. T TO END A COLD SOONER: Ii a cold has developed, or strikes without warning, Vigorous measures are necessary. Rest as much as possible, preferably in bed. Take a mild Taxative, if needed. At bedtime, ajply Vicks VapoRub for its direct, double action while you <leep.
