NEW TUBE LINE DEVELOPED BY ARCTURUS
The Arcturus Radio Tube Company, Newark, N. J. , has developed and marketed a new line of tubes, designated as the "G" series, which is claimed to be identical in electrical characteristics and pin connections to the all-metal tubes.
"It is stated that several of the larger set manu¬ facturers and many smaller ones have already developed circuits employing these new "G" tubes. Early announcement of some of these radio receivers is expected", a press release from Arcturus sets forth,
"Carrying the same type numbers as do the all-metal tubes, the letter "G" is suffixed to denote the glass envelope type. The "G" line follows conventional tube manufacturing processes which have been perfected and overcomes the difficul¬ ties invariably associated with not only new designs, but also with a totally new development. The "G" line is as perfect as radio tubes can be made today and enable set manufacturers to design immediately an all-metal tube set without further wait¬ ing upon the limited production of all-metal tubes.

CANADIAN RMA ORGANIZES LIKE OURS
Canadian radio manufacturers at their annual meeting May 30 in Toronto reorganized their trade association and followed substantial features of the American RMA. President A. S. Edgar was reelected to head the Canadian RMA and R. A. Hackbusch was reelected Director of Engineering, The RMA division organization was followed by the Canadian manufacturers. Their new organization comprises a Set Division and a Parts, Cabinet and Accessory Division, like that of the American association. Canadian importers, however, are eligible to membership of the latter division and the Canadian dues are on a higher basis than those of RMA.
The RMA is advised, through cooperation with the Canadian RMA, that Canadian sales of receiving sets for the month ending April 30, 1935, totaled 8,877 with a list value of $762,411.
