David Sarnoff (Continued from page 17) ident of RCA Communications, Inc., Radiomarine Corporation of America and RCA Photophone, Inc. He is chairman of the boards of RCA Victor, Inc., RCA Radiotron, Inc., Radio-Keith-Orpheum Corp., and E. T. Cunningham, Inc. He is a director of the Gramaphone Co. Ltd., the NBC, and the Radio Real Estate Corporation of America With broadcasting's first faint rise, Mr. Sarnoff saw the opportunity for development of a new service and a new industry. The industry was described as a "novelty" manufacturing business, and broadcasting, judging from the early programs, was considered a passing fancy. Through his efforts, the first cabinet radio sets were introduced in 1925, and he was instrumental in the creation of NBC as a permanent broadcasting service, to provide improved programs and national coverage and to brighten the market for receiving sets in which RCA was directly interested through patent mobilization. Through his offices, also, RCA invaded the talking movies and vaudeville and motion pictures. He also negotiated the merger of RCA with the Victor Talking Machine Co. He is confident that additional important public services will come from continued experimentation and has his eyes fixed on television. Mr. Sarnoff's academic education was restricted to the New York public schools and to a special ensgineering course at Pratt Insti A CLASSIFIED AD WILL DO THE JOB HELP WANTED You may choose a new employee from numerous experienced applicants if you insert a Help Wanted classified ad in BROADCASTING.

WASHINGTON, D. Ci 3&ZINE OF THE FIFTH ESTATE The Other Fellow's Viewpoint . . . Longer Antennas To the Editor of Broadcasting: I was interested in noting the article on WEVD's new antenna, on Page 21 of the September 15 issue of Broadcasting. In one paragraph the statement is made that this station has the longest transmission line in the world. I have not personally visited all of the broadcasting transmitters in the United States, although I have visited those of the colleges and universities. I have been on more than one occasion on the campus of Washington State College at Pullman, Washington, and have figures showing that their transmission line is 1200 feet long. It is evident therefore that at least one station in the United States has a longer transmission line than does WEVD. I will be interested to find whether other stations can show a greater length than this. I am wondering whether or not the Commission records could not verify the facts on transmission line lengths. I am sending a copy of this letter to Dr. H. V. Carpenter, Dean of the College of Engineering of the State College of Washington, Pullman, Washington, who is technical director of station KWSC and is quite prominent in radio engineering research and invention.

Commission 1934 Budget A BUDGET of $889,000 for the fiscal year 1934, which begins next July 1, was asked by the Radio Commission in a conference with the Bureau of the Budget on Sept. 26. The figure compares with $856,000 available to the Commission for the current fiscal year, which represents the money available after the 8 1/3 per cent reduction ordered by Congress under the Economy Bill. Both figures include appropriations for the Commission's Division of Field Operations, formerly the Radio Division of the Department of Commerce.
