Editor's Not: Radiophone is a word that has leaped into wide popularity within the past few months and from being a word known to few is now known to everyone. The magic of the new field of entertainment, instruction, education and acier.re has been seised with thankfulness by millions. Edward J. Nally, one of the pioneers in radio is now president of the Radio Corporation, and is perhaps the greatest living au thority on many branches of the new activity, especially ia the field of broad casting. Someday may come a writer gifted ith the ability to analyse retrospec tively the conditions which led up to the phenominal growth of radiophone broadcasting. For the present it may be said that those who bad most to do with launching the new art are too busy supplying the needs of the American public to have time for speculation as to who or what was responsible for the sudden universal popularity of radio. A hen one views, as has been wit nessed recently in a hundred cities, que ues of prospective purchasers strung along streets leading to retail radio shops, it may be imagined what activity prevailed in the factories where these wonderworking radio boxes are pro duced. Heretofore the factories had been en gaped in supplying the requirements of radio telerraph interests for commercial communication purposes and the lesser needs of the American boy radio ama teur, but when radiophone broadcasting of music concerts, lectures, sporting news, markets, etc was inaugurated during the Fall of 1921, the manufactur ers were immediately swamped with or ders. Results Obtained. It is natural that broadcasting, carry ing grand opera into the homes of the American people should have created a concerted and impatient demand for ra dio receiving sets, and it ia a tribute to those who had to do with the design and manufacture of the equipment that practically everyone who spent money for an outfit low priced or high priced was able without radio knowledge to obtain the desired happy results. The large electrical manufacturing companies making the bulk of the neces-1 sary radio devices are permanent organ izations and they really recognised that radio in the home is here to stay. Prop erly designed and properly made appar atus is necessary in order that satisfac tory radio reception shall be permanent. As an indication of the expansion of factory output which has taken place it may be stated that commercial and experimental radio requirements a year ago used up vacuum tubes at the rate of 4,000 per year, while the present de mand exceeds 200,000 of these devices per month. The factories manufacturing for the Radio Corporation of America are op erating on a greatly expanded produc tion program and it is quite possible that there will be a surplus of sets and parts within six months. Verily, it may be said that a new use has been found for flag poles, chimney tops and high trees dead or alive. All iavt been or are being put to work sus taining one end of radio receiving an tennas. Future of Broadcasting. ' The future of radiophone broadcast ing might be viewed from a dozen an gles. A doxen or a score of prophecies might be obtained from aa many proph ets, but perhaps the only sensible de ductions which can be made thus far are those based on what has occurred and what progress has been made dur ing the first six months of popular radio. Already the broadcasting stations have tried out a range of subjects from prize fight ringside returns to lectures on social hygiene and from jazi to grand opera. Religious sermons and sa cred music are being sent out on Sun days and kiddie bedtime stories several evenings each week. In t e ambitious attempt to feel out te rub;ic desire the broadcasters have dicovpred whs; newspaper managers discovered lor.g sgo that the mental and intellectual appetite of the Ameri can family has a wide range of inter ests, and in order that the new means of disseminating what the American public daily wants to know may be a success, it is essential only to realise that the change is one of manner not of matter. The radiophone receiver in the home csn. if desired, be on duty all of the time. Its messages come in spoken word, pleasing and easy to understand. In this, city, state and national govern mental departments have an agency whereby the home, the office, the farm and the workshop may be reached di rectly and on opportune occasions. All in all we have in the radiophone a new and valuable means of communi cation in the main of course, one way communication in the sense that the matter in newspapers and magazines has a direction of flow from organized sources into the dwellings of men.

The people of this country, through an act of congress, signed by President Wilson, established a tribunal to decide such disputes over wages and working conditions, which are submitted to it In the proper manner. It is the decision of this tribunal against which the shop crafts are striking. "Regardless of any question of the right of the men to strike, the men who take the strikers' places are merely accepting the wages and working conditions prescribed by a gov ernment tribunal and are performing a public service. They are not accepting the wages and working conditions which an employer Is trying to impose.
