TO RULE ON RADIO WRIT Decision was reserved by Federal Judge John C. Knox on the motion to return the suit of the Torquay Company against the General Electric Company, the West inghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company and the Radio Corporation of America to the State courts, from which it was recently transferred. The suit is to enjoin the defendants from distributing 7,500,000 shares of Radio Corporation stock among the General Electric and West inghouse stockholders and to compel them to show cause why a receiver of the stock should not be appointed. Judge Knox also reserved decision on a motion for a temporary injunction to compel such restraint on order of the Federal Court. Nathan Burkan, attorney for Torquay company, owner of 100 B shares and 100 common shares of the Radio Cor¬ poration, indicated he would bring proceedings before Federal Jud;?e Nields in Delaware to prevent distribution of the stock. It was Judge Nields who signed a consent decree dissolving the so-called radio monopoly and directing the distribution.

Added in a postscript to the letter the distributor states, "These tubes have been sold, not presented". This is an addition to the list of ruling heads of foreign nations who, by using Arcturus tubes, pay tribute to American-made products. XXXXXXXXXX "ROXY" MAY TAKE HIS NAME TO RADIO CITY S. L.
