Preparing for an Output of $350,000,000 Before Next
Summer Comes.
With the impetus given to the radio business by
a summer that has shown sales 50 per cent greater
than any previous warm period, radio manufacturers
are prepared for a fall and winter season that will
set a new record, according to trade reports to the
radio apparatus section of the Associated Manufac-
turers of Electrical Supplies. Should expectation re-
flected by a majority of the reports be realized, radio
sales during the coming fall, winter, and spring will
aggregate $350,000,000, or about twice the record of
the corresponding period of 1923-24.
All this seems to endorse the glowing statements
of Thomas M. Pletcher at the Cleveland Convention
of Ohio Music Dealers which will be found quoted
on another page. But if the radio manufacturers are
to enlist the right proportion of music stores they
should revise their method of appeal, and especially
their avenues of trade publicity.
OTTO F. TREFZ BUSY.
The enterprising industry of Otto Rfl Trefz, bass
string winder, of Philadelphia, reports a busy season
in the new department of the business, in which all
piano manufacturers, repairers and dealers are espe-
cially interested. It is a complete piano repair sup-
ply branch of the business. Mr. Trefz is thoroughly
cxpereinced in every branch of the piano industry and
knows just what repair men and tuners need. The
factory of Otto R. Trefz is perfectly equipped for
the manufacture of supplies of all kinds needed in
piano repairs and similar work. Dealers and others
are advised to get in touch with the Philadelphia
house for prompt attention to wants of the kind
intimated.
TO ATTEND RADIO FAIR.
The Radio Manufacturers' Association has ar-
ranged for a special train to carry the Middle West-
ern manufacturers, jobbers and dealers to the Radio
World's Fair to be held September 22-28, at Madison
Square Garden, New York. The affair is under the
direction of James F. Kerr, manager of the Chicago
Radio Show, and U. J. Herrmann. About two hun-
dred persons from the Chicago district are expected
to attend the fair, and those desiring to make reser-
vations for the special train can do so at the head-
quarters of the Radio Manufacturers' Association,
123 West Madison street.
