Before us is a gripping theme, depicting all the joy and sadness of a life to be lived. Soft and sweet- consoling-a song steals o'er us -in chains of silent admiration we hear the plea of golden voiced sopranos. Then stronger, harsher, in notes that reverberate in the very heavens-a chant from the lips of a world -famed tenor. Beauty and pathos pass in quick succession- much too soon we hear the deafening tones of the grand finale.

The members of the Commission have been working steadily for two years on a program to relieve the congestion of the air. Their prime object was to fix the posi- tions, time and frequency of stations in such a way that the American public would receive the greatest benefit from the magnificent programs that are being broadcast. Individually and as a body the Commissioners have been both criticised and beset for favors on every side by persons and factions motivated for the most part by selfish interest. Every politician wanted to be sure that his constituents received their share of stations or more. Nearly every industrial, religious and political group requested advantageous channels for their stations nr the station in which they were interested. Listeners -in everywhere were clamoring for relief, but no matter which way the Commission moved it was inevitably assailed. Finally it decided to use the inherent power given it under the 1926 Radio Law. The plan, which is to go into effect on November 11tíí, was finally formulated and is now presented. It is a drastic move. Several high -powered stations and a number of lower- powered broadcasters have been eliminated entirely. Many stations are forced to share time on the same wave length and in some instances as many as three stations must split time. This great National change being so extreme, the Commission decided not to con- sider it effective immediately hut to allow a period of 60 days for hearings. This will give the stations and interested groups an opportunity to present any objections they may have. Indications are that there will probably be many such cases, for, to give you an instance of how radical is the new schedule, only one Southern California station will remain on its present wave length! These complaint proceedings will bring about numerous changes between now and the first part of November. Information and logs given out before that time would, of course, be premature and may cause much confusion. Arrangements have been made whereby Radio Doings will receive the final changes from the office of the Federal Radio Commission. At that time, which will be just before November 11th, a complete cross indexed Call Book will he published. Not only American but prominent European, Canadian, Mexican, Japanese, Australian and New Zealand stations will be listed alpha- betically and by frequency. This up -to- the -minute Radio Doings Call Book will also contain radio and technical information of a readily understandable and interesting nature. In addition there will he a complete DIAL-LOG which will schematically represent the positions en your dials of the prominent Western stations both before and after November 11th. This will he invaluable to each of you who listen in, for the new positions of the stations can be easily and quickly calculated by comparing them with their former dial locations. Reserve YOUR Call Book now and it will arrive in your home just before the day on which all the stations change!
