A burning question now inflaming some radio deal-
ers and manufacturers is: "Will fire more quickly
damage or destroy radio receiving sets or elecrical
curling irons, dish washers, or refrigerators?"
This question is the cause of a red-hot controversy
between certain fire insurance companies and radio
jobbers and dealers. An investigation is being made
by the Federated Radio Trade Association, the na-
tional organization of radio jobbers and dealers, and
the Radio Manufacturers' Association, which are
affiliated.
Complaint of radio dealers that their lire insurance
rates had been greatly increased caused t;ie inquiry
being made by the radio industr'al associations. Fire
underwriters advised them that insurance rates on
radio products were increased because they are more
subject to damage from fire and water than electrical
products. This also raises the question of whether
radio apparatus is an electrical product or not—an-
other burning question within the radio and electrical
industries.
Insurance rates fairly adjusted on radio products
as compared with electrical and other similar prod-
ucts are being sought by the Federated Radio Trades
Association and the Radio Manufacturers Association.

under Dr. Rabl's direction. This group of four music
dramas are seldom heard here and it is Dr. Rabl's
intention to demonstrate to Chicago, with the assist-
ance of principals and company, orchestra and tech-
nical staff, that when the four operas are heard in
close succession, in conformity with Wagnerian tra-
ditions, their dramatic and musical worth are in-
tensely heightened.
Artists, as well as technicians, including the me-
chanics in charge of scenic and lighting effects, all
have been chosen from among the few who know
thoroughly the Wagnerian traditions. Rachel Busey

Chicago appearance of the company. The schedule
