"Suppose you owned a broadcasting station and had your choice of selling a valuable hour of time for money or giving it away for the public good. Suppose your stockholders were demanding the maximum dividends. Would you act like a hard-headed American business man or would you play Santa Claus? The answer is found over and over again, with example piled on example, in the report of the Federal Communications Commission. "

G.E.’S RADIO ALARM WAKES YOU UP TO MUSIC
General Electric electronics engineers have designed a bedside clock-radio set that automatically wakes you up with your own brand of music. And for heavy sleepers, the set has an auxil¬ iary resonator that sounds a few minutes after your "wake up" music comes on.
Developed by the company’s Receiver Division engineers at Bridgeport, Conn. , the set is now in production there. G.E. expects to be able to make it available to the public about June 15th at a cost of $27.35 except in the far West where the price will be $28.70.
Here’s how the "wake up" feature works. Before retiring, you tune in your favorite radio station, adjust the volume as desir¬ ed, set the clock in the receiver as you would the ordinary alarm. Finally, you turn the alarm selector control. This turns the ra.dlo off for the evening. The clock continues to operate. At the appointed "wake up" hour the clock turns the radio on and you are supposed to awaken. If it’s been a tough night and you decided before retiring that you will need the resonator and have set that too — well, you get the double-barreled effect a fewminutes after the radio music has been turned on.
The clockradio operates on regular house current. It has four tubes, comes in a plastic case, and weighs about 5 pounds. It’s about the size of a small loaf of bread.

BYRD SEES IN PETRILLO’S METHODS "TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION"
Senator Byrd (D) of Virginia, discussing the labor situa¬ tion in the Senate said:
"The Revolutionary War was fought over the issue of taxa¬ tion without representation. The new Republic was founded on the basis that only the duly elected representatives of the people, fun* ctioning in a governmental capacity, should have the right to levy taxes. Through a century and a half of our national history that fundamental principle of our democracy was never challenged. Then Mr. Petrillo, President of the Musicians* Union, exacted a royalty from the manufacturers of phonograph records, and he still collects it from them. " ,
