Paul B. Klugh, General Chairman, Stimulating
Interest by Mailing 30,000 Window Hang-
ers to Dealers of the Country.

National Radio Festival Day to be observed all over
the nation by radio men and radio fans. Its observa-

The Banquet Broadcast and Radio Festival are
likewise the high lights of the Radio Week which
Federated Radio Trade Association is sponsoring.
Radio Week runs concurrently with Radio World's
Fair in New York city and will afford thousands of
dealers an opportunity to turn the spotlight which
the fair and the broadcast provides, on their products
for six days, September 17-22.
General Chairman Paul B. Klugh is arranging to
stimulate the interest of dealers and listeners in the
Radio Industries Banquet broadcast, National Radio

some two-colored window hanger.
It is planned to have more stations participate in
the broadcast of the Fifth Radio Industries Banquet

The program which is to be broadcast will be one
of the most costly ever put on the air. Artists who
