Investigation proved that only one of the motors was causing any interference and this will be cor- rected as soon as parts arrive from the General Electric company to remedy lit. We are anxious to do away with all radio interference from this motor and are sure from repeated investiga- tion that only a very small part of the radio interference in the community. comes from The Post's plant. In ne instance does the interference extend over a distance further than a block from the Post’s building.
