ing the principal makes. The so-called "Big 4 in

RESULTS OF RADIO SHOW.
More than $35,000,000 worth of business was trans-
acted in the six days of the radio show in New York
between manufacturers and mechandisers in the radio
industry, according to an estimate by G. Clayton
Irwin, Jr., managing director. He said members of
the industry from all parts of the country had pro-
nounced the event the most interesting, productive
and profitable ever held. Accordingly the general
prediction is that radio will have one of the best years
ever experienced.
