We ram into WSM, Nashville, ich came through in commend- able style. A boy soprano, possessed of a remarkably sweet, clear and true voice, presented several num- bers in a delightful manner. “Come Garden, Love” and “My Lover Fisherman” were fwo of the numbers. WSM suffered from inter- ference to some extent, but it was largely overshadowed by the heavy wave from the Nashville transmit- ter. . Clear and loud, with now and ther a dash of electrical nonsense, was WEAO, Columbus. That station is located where there are no other stations to interfere, although the backslap from WPG, Atlantic City, can be heard on rare occasions when the station is spreading Itself more than usual. Well, an instrumental trio, not the best we ever heard and also not the worst, offered a group of selections including “By The Brook” and “Spanish Serenade.” oo And another Spanish Gypsy or- chestra landed with a terrific smack. How many we have heard we shouldn’t tell. But at WPG, Atlantic City, where or not the orchestra is ish or not, they have one of the best of that type that we have ever heard in all our life, no kidadin’, cross our heart, hopeteedie.

PO WEAF, New York, came through loud during most of the evening and even before dark we were able to {pick up that station with consider- able volume. While WTIC was on the air it was a cinch to bring in the | National Broadcasting Company’s key station, and we heard the Zip- pers, a tenor soloist singing “It's a Long Way to Singapore,” as if we cared how far it is. .

The award announced last night was the unanimous decision of the United States board of arbitration, and Is the second important proceed- ing decided under the railway labor act, passed last May. The first fn- volved the claims of railway con-| decided in favor of the men on De- cember 1.

These spe- cial rates are effective from Jan. 13. The employes had asked increases of 11 1-2 and 12 cents an hour. The company contended that government control, inflation and unproftable contracts prohibited the meeting of the demand. Under the railway labor act the award of the arbitration board is final. Hearings were started Dec. 21 and concluded Jan. 7. The case was presented directly by representatives of the express company, the Ameri- can Federation of Express Workers, the Brotherhood of Rallway and Steam Clerks, freight handlers, ex- press and station employés and the Order of Railway Expressmen.) The arbitration comprised John H. Clarke, former associate justice of the supreme court; W. B. Wilson, secretary of labor in President Wil- son’s cabinet, and E. A. Stedman, vice president of the express com- pany. Mr. Wilson represented the employes. Mr. Clarke in a statement announcing. the award, hailed the unanimous decision as a promising indication of the success of the rail- way labor acts.
