RADIO PROGRESS IN 1924.

[By William S. Hedges, Radio Editor of The Chicago Daily News.] The year 1924 found the radio industry at middle west. The principal stations of Europe a new high point. In less than four years heard here were PTT, Paris: 2LO, London, and since the radio "craze" swept the nation the 5NO, Newcastle, England. fad grew until it has become a $1.000,000-aday industry, for the estimate of the department of commerce is that the volume of business for the radio industry in 1924 was approximately $400,000,000. While the industry has been climbing steadily the radio audience has been increasing in numbers until at the beginning of 1925 it is estimated that between 25.000.000 and 30.000.000 Americans

are "radio fans.'

The year 1924, being a presidential election year, brought radio into greater prominence than would have been possible in any other year because it afforded the various political candidates an opportunity to reach the millions of voters with a single address. Radio's participation in politics started in June when the proceedings of the republican national convention at Cleveland were broadcast through a net of more than a dozen stations. The radio listeners of the nation were able to contrast the orderly procedure at Cleveland with the tumultuous sessions in Madison Square Garden. New York city, where the democratic party met and struggled through many long and tedious ballots, the same stations broadcasting the entire proceedings of this convention as well.

Throughout the political campaign radio was extensively used by all parties. The Chicago Daily News radio station WMAQ, having broadcast the two conventions, next broadcast the notification ceremonies and attendant speeches when President Coolidge, Brig.-Gen. Charles Gates Dawes, John W. Davis and Charles W. Bryan were formally told of their nominations. Senator Robert M. LaFollette had recourse to the microphone on several Occasions, as did the other candidates, and radio constituted virtually the only contact which President Coolidge had with the electorate, because he did not leave Washington for any political speeches in the campaign. Both John W. Davis and President Coolidge used radio for an eleventh-hour address to the voters of the nation, whom they addressed on the evening before election day.

INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING. Radio, though busy with politics, accomplished many other things during the year. As an example, it established, for the first time in the history of polar exploration, contact with a party in the far north, when Donald B. MacMillan, on a scientific expedition, fre; quently communicated with American and Canadian stations by means of radio. The MacMillan party was frozen in within eleven degrees of the north pole at Etah, Greenland. Other feats in the course of the year included the use of radio by the great dirigible Shenandoah, which sailed across the continent and back to Lakehurst, N. J., with Junius B. Wood, a staff correspondent of The Chicago Daily News, aboard, who furnished press reports for all press associations during the trip. Radio was used constantly to maintain communication with the land below. The ZR-3 in its remarkable flight from Germany to America likewise employed radio to maintain communication with stations in Europe and America.

International radio week, Nov. 24 to 30, furnished another demonstration of radio's power. Among the stations heard in Europe were a dozen American stations, one of which was WMAQ, The Chicago Daily News transmitter. An equal number of European and ish stations were also heard by hundreds mericans. many of whom live in the

RADIO CONFERENCE IN WASHINGTON. Perhaps the most outstanding event of the year in its importance to the future of the conference held in industry was the radio Washington, D. C., in October, when Secretary of Commerce Hoover conferred with the various elements of the radio industry in an effort to map out a plan for its future.

The most important questions considered by the conferees were the power of the broadcasting stations and the wave lengths. Both questions proved to be knotty problems. In reference to the power proposals, several of the broadcasters wished to see the present limit of 1.000 watts removed, with no upward limit imposed, having the announced intention of establishing 50,000-watt stations. This proposal was met with vigorous opposition on the ground that such tremendous power would paralyze the receiving sets. within many miles of the superpower stations. The ultimate outcome of the discussion was the recommendation that the power limit be fixed at 5,000 watts with the added stipulation that the stations would be permitted to increase their power at the rate of 500 watts at a time and then only with the permission of the federal supervisor of radio, who would take into consideration the effect of each increase before granting permission for a further increase.

The ever-increasing number of broadcasting stations, now more than 500, and the desire of the better stations to acquire the "B" classification, the highest rating (which, incidentally, will be changed to class I when the new regulations go into force) led the conference into the difficult task of devising a way of allocating wave lengths for the stations, with only a limited number of ether channels available. At this time of writing (December. 1924) there are sixty-four class "B" stations and only fifty-seven wave lengths available for this classification. Add to this the fact that forty-six new class "B" stations are under construction and the problem becomes even more difficult. The only solution of the problem. it appears, is the division of time by the stations and the sharing of wave lengths by two or more stations.

Radio legislation made little headway during 1924 and as the year closed the proposed White bill, which survived countless hearings and which had the support of the department of commerce, appeared to have become lost as the result of the advice by Secretary Hoover that a much shorter and simpler radio bill be substituted enough to cope with the changing conditions which would be elastic in radio. Secretary Hoover's proposal met with great favor among many leaders in the radio industry.

PICTURES SENT BY RADIO.

Failure to mention the fact that radio was used to transmit pictures of various celebrated persons, among them Ambassador Kellogg and the prince of Wales, across the ocean would be inexcusable, indeed, because it points the way to the successful completion of another of man's dreams, radio television, with which latter experiment C. Francis Jenkins, the Washington inventor, is accomplishing remarkable results. The radio photographs were first flashed across the Atlantic early in December, as the result of an experiment with photoelectric cells, conducted by Capt. R. H. Ranger.

As for the radio sets as the listeners know them, several great expositions of radio equip

ment were held in New York, San Francisco knew what was needed to put efficiency into and Chicago. The largest show was held in the their sets. For that reason distant programs Coliseum in Chicago, where 230 manufac- no longer need be heard only through head turers displayed the most recent developments phones-the sets are able to deliver the sigin radio equipment. nals with such volume and clarity that the loud speaker is practicable for most of the higher-powered stations regardless of the location of the receiver.

Superheterodyne and tuned radio frequency (including neutrodyne) were the predominant type of circuits employed in the latest sets. The year 1924 has witnessed the birth of many sets which to-day stand among the best being offered the radio public. Many of the pioneer radio manufacturers have entirely abandoned their former type of receivers, and are turning toward the superheterodyne or tuned radio frequency sets.

GREATER EFFICIENCY REACHED. Not only has there been a change in circuits, or rather a development of the old circuits, but there has been a great advance made in the quality and efficiency of the products now on the market. The radio public, which in by gone years would buy anything offered so long as it was a radio part, in 1924 became conversant with such words as "low-loss" and

Call signal.

Another advance in the radio art has been the perfection of battery eliminators which enable the set operator to take his power for lighting the filaments and for applying voltage on the plates of the tubes direct from the light socket. A still further improvement in these devices is looked for in 1925.

It would be impossible to record all of the new inventions pertaining to radio which have been brought to light in 1924. It is equally impossible to tell of all the notable achievements in the radio industry, so it must suffice to say that radio in 1924 still held its sway over the popular imagination: that it still continued to render an improved service to the public and that all this is given in a spirit of "greater things to-morrow."
