WASHINGTON POST URGES HIGH POTISR
The FederaR Radio Commission is urged to grant 50,000 watts power to stations on a ’’maximum number of channels” in 8.n editorial appearing Monday in the Washington Post. Denying that high power stations cause additional interference, the editorial says: "Today a 50,000 watt station, instead of contributing to interference, destroys it ... .
"The Radio Commission should be able to Y/ork out a program under which the maximum number of channels permitted under the law may be utilized by 50,000 watt sta.tions, and it should be able to select the sta.tions that are best fitted to take advantage of the privilege of using super power. The one and only way to prove to the public that power boosts are not detrimental to satisfactory reception is by permitting as many stations as possible to operate with 50,000 watts power."

SEES END TO RCA CUTTING PRICES
Basing his prediction upon the fact that the company is now manufacturing its receivers in the one factory located at Camden, N.J., and can entirely control the output of the product, shutting down the plant quickly when an over production is in sight, a well informed observer declared that the drastic price cuts, formerly made in RCA sets, was a thing of the past,
"I venture to say", he went on, "that there will be less price cutting on RCA sets in the future than almost any set on the market. Every RCA set is. now lca.ded directly on freight cars, there are no superfluous supplies on hand and no warehouse for an accumula¬ tion of the finished product,
"The RCA keeps in the closest possible touch with its jobbers and dealers and doing the manufacturing all under one roof as it is done today, they are able to exactly meet the market demand T^^ithout a.cquiring a surplus. Hence they are able to stabilize their market and avoid the ruinous price cutting practice of the nast. "
