Z RADIO BROADCAST ADVERTISER S is Out! Newspapers From Coast to Coast Herald the Entry of a New Giant Into the Tube Business . . . National Union Radio Corporation takes its place beside R. C. A. and Cunningham . . . experts now forecast the end of present chaotic trade practices •X1 On August 23rd at 4:10 P. M. the final papers were signed ... a clerk released the news to 1100 newspapers . . . the National Union Radio Corporation had at last become a fact! The radio editors of a big New York paper describe it as "The most important radio news this year." A prominent jobber from Chicago wired — "National Union will do much to stabilize the radio tube business." Retailers the country over are greeting the news with enthusiasm. National Union with a capacity of 75,000 tubes a day becomes one of the three largest manufacturers of radio tubes in the world. Capitalized at $16,000,000, lack of money will not handicap its development. Directed by a group of the country's ablest radio executives, it should quickly win a position at the head of the radio industry. Through a reciprocal agreement with R. C. A., National Union will have the benefit of every important existing radio patent. Look for big things from this new organization. Look for the fairest trade practices in the business. Look for the finest tubes science can devise. More big news will follow during the next few months. Watch the next issue of this magazine. RADIO CORPORATION • OCTOBER 1 929 • • 3 0 9
