RCA President Denies Monopoly Charge Before Senate Panel
James G. Harbord, president of Radio Corporation of America, testifies before the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee denying monopoly charges. He argues patent unification spurred radio progress and cites RCA sales growth from 11 million in 1922 to 87 million in 1928, and notes the need for careful regulation as the industry remains formative. He supports a federal communications regulator in principle but warns against overbroad powers.
