Muy 1. ity Assoc in tod Prens.1 A new infant industry, the manufacture of radio equipment, has sprung up with, an amar.inp growth within a year and much ot it within a few recent weeks. From a few nmnu facturinn shops a year ajw to thou sands now, an increase ot sixty thou sand percent in demand In two years: a business in which both Imya and reat manufacturers are taking pro tiq; all this Is the romance of the new Industry. The demand which called It into ex istence is at present as tremendous as it has been sudden. The new, small concerns manufacturing radio supplies re estimated by the Radio Corpora tion of America as numbering thou sands. Fipures of the same corpora tion show that whereas two years ao 4000 tubes a year were in demand, this year probably 200,000 tubes a month will be called for. Reports gathered from a number of states by the Associated Press show that many boys aud.-other amateurs are constructing and selling outfits. Three years ago three boys in Cat cago sixteen and seventeen years old began to make radio outfits. They are now incorporating and carrying on a large business. Their success indi cates the alluring possibilities in this new Industry of adventure. Its alleg ed hazards were pointed out in the pre diction of an official of ono of the older and larger electrical supply houses that if all the concerns now engaged in making radio equipment should remain in the enterprise, be fore long parts would become a drug on the market and that by October 1 the .makers of complete seta would actively be soliciting business. ibat such a situation would be a reversal of present conditions is indi cated in, the report of another large supply house thai it is two months be hind in filling its orders and word from all parts of the country of a great shortage in apparatus. The huge de mand is ascribed to the practice of free broadcasting. "There are more bootleggers in the radio business than ia the whisky J .business," one dealer usserted. "I'eo-I 1 pie pet hold of parts and sell them for exorbitant pi. cos; I have known a sinsle'tubo which is regularly sold for! $f to In-liitf $lo. S.nne of the spurious; dealers coma in and try to bribe our, clerks to get them pints." An electrical supply house at Tole-' do. O., has bi'Riin to Install what it ; has announced will be one of the most ! complete radio manufacturing plants in the world. It piioses to empty : ,100 workers at the outset and more as the department is enlarged, and plans lor a daily capacity of 500 complete radio receiving and transmitting sets, j la Toledo and Lucas county, it was estimated, several thousand sets are receiving daily weather, market and other reports, broadcast from various cities throughout the country. Six con cerns are manufacturing radio equip-' meut in Cincinnati, O. THREE MILLION GUESTS AT WORLD'S "-LARGEST BIRTHDAY PARTY -v v. i '" At the Rlalto I Oh, what a difference between ja j music in a melixly shop and jazz in the softly lighted cafe ot a fine hotel! Gladys Walton, in -Playing With r'irc," her starring .vehicle at the Rialto theater, makes the change from queen of the sheet music emporium to high toned society very -sympathetic-ally. ( Really, you know, the flapper isn't such, a heartless little creature. She's ! often pictured as a girl ot such cruel vamping tendencies that youthful masculine hearts lie in heaps about her. rtut this one doesn't even lean across the shevt music counter when dinners at the Astor, rides along the J Hudson and tickets to the best show , in town are mentioned to her. Sho merely notices the presence of the music buyers as though they were one of the necessary evils of life, and keeps en dreaming ol ytung Loch invars with the names in the blue book. Of course she finds her ideal. His i name off the screen is Hal lam C'ooley, j but spare us from the necessity of elucidation!
