CHICAGO RADIO
STATION PLANS
POLICY CHANGE
By C. K. Bin Infield
(Associated Press Radio Editor)
A radical change in program pol
icy, which it feels may establish a
i precedent, has been made by
WKMt, Chicago.
Effective July 7, its advance
programs supplied newspapers will
contain no mention of the spon
sors. Trado or corporation names
will bo substituted by a "distinctivo
designation."
In addition the station proposes
"to maintain a conservative adver
tising policy that will not permit
tho broadcasting of advertising
matter found objectionable by lis
teners and which is not In keeping
with the real purposes of broad
casting and to bear in mind that
the first allegiance of the broad
casting station is to the listening
public."
This new WEN It policy Is In lino
with a campaign recently inaugu
rated by the Radio Manufacturers
association against what it de
scribed as a tendency by broad
casting to devote more time to the
sponsor than was thought advis
able. It was said that hearers de
sired a preponderance of entertain
ment and might switch to some
thing else if a program contained
what some might feel was too

If you buy an electric refrigerator (and everyone will own one
eventually), what about the cost of keeping it in good condition,
service charges? What about the guarantee that goes with the
machine you buy? What about the manufacturer and dealer
behind that guarantee? An electric investment demands that
you know the answer to these questions.
NOT ONE SERVICE CALL BY
LA GRANDE G-E OWNERS
Not One Penny Spent'For Service Over 300,000 Owners in the
Country and not One Dollar Spent for Service Think of it!
The General Electric Refrigerator, serving the American housewife for
three years, has over 300,000 in service and the owners have not spent 'one
dollar for service ! In La Grande not one service call has been made by G.-E.
owners. How is such a record possible? A mechanism that requires no oil-,
ing the oil is permanently and hermetically sealed in and is dust-proof. No
belts or troublesome machinery, simple, all steel.
It Means Something to the La Grande Housewife to Own an
Electric' lief rigerator
BUILT AND GUARANTEED BY
GENERAL ELECTRIC
The name General Klccti ic is enough in itself to emphasize the engineering skill, the ex
cellence of materials and design going into the making of the CJ-I5 refrigerator. And
hack of that quality is fin unqualified two-year guarantee hy the General Kleclric com
pany. What greater assurance of electric refrigerator satisfaction and permanent
economy could you desire?
