WORKRITE PLANT IN CHICAGO
New Factory Added to Those Already Established
by WorkRite Mfg. Co., of Cleveland.
To take care of the rapidly increasing sales of the
new WorkRite Super-Neutrodyne radio sets, the
WorkRite Manufacturing Company of Cleveland has
opened a Chicago factory in addition to its factories
at Cleveland and Los Angeles.
The company has also taken out export licenses
under the Hazeltine Patents for the manufacture and
sale of the new WorkRite Super-Neutrodyne sets in
foreign countries.
".Neutrodyne sets are practically the only ones
which fully comply with the British law prohibiting
the use of radiating radio receivers. In neutrodyne
sets this is impossible, and consequently no squeals
or howls distort reception, or interfere with the sets
of other listeners," says the company.
"This feature, combined with unusual selectivity
and ease in receiving distant stations, makes Work-
Rite sets particularly valuable for use abroad."
FEATURES RADIO.
The Smith Piano Co., Milwaukee, Wis., is featuring
the products of the Radio Corporation of America
in a fine window display. A Radiola in an attractive
setting gives character to the display.
