PLAN FOR FEDERAL RADID COMMITTEE Congressional Bills Call for Advisory-Body of Twelve Members. The mystic sy +8-3694" and “HR-11964" d official Zov- ernment papers which bear directly the future development of radio These papers are ex- actly alike and comprise the proposed radio - legislation introduced in Con- gress. The first bill was introduced by Senator Kellogg of Minnesota June § and referred tothe Senate inter- state commerce committee, while the House bill, prepared and introduced by Representative White of Maine. was presented June 9 and turned over to the committee on merchant marine and fisheries. Mr. White is now more san.;uin: about the early consideration of his bill by this com- mittee as the ship subsidy bill was in this country. reported out recentiy. clearing up one of this ¢ ttee’s big Prob- lems. i At the Department of Commerce. are waiting the enact- ation so that they can clear the aerial traffic, so to speak. especially along the route of tife 360- meter wave, on which all' 343 broad- casting stations aye now operating. With the passage of the bill, .and there seems-ifttle doubt that it will pass, as there are ¥irtually no op- ponents to it. a conference in Wash- ington of all radio inspectors will be cadled to meet with the new radio ad- visory committee of twelve author- ized dn the bill to aid Secretary Hoover in enforcing the legislation. Pernonncl of Committee. To date no one will hazard a guess as to the personnel of the committee, though it is thought that the siX xovernmental representatives will in- <lude a number of the officials who have already co-operated with the department in its recent conference on radio wave distribution and the necessary legislation. The following men were conspicuous in_that work and may serve again: Dr. S. W. Strat- ton of the bureau of standards; Maj. tien. George O. Squier, Signal C the chief of the naval communications service, J. C. Edgerton of the post office, W. or of the Depart- ment of Agriculture and D. B. Carson. or another representative. of the De- partment of Commerce radio section. Tt i& even more difficult to predict the members to be selected from civil life, as there are many interests to ented by only six men. The acturers of radlo apparatus be facluded. ic operators, radio engi 1 tors, and probably educational utions and new s, which mwake elght interests. This difficulty’ which may be ercountered in muking a fair distribution, al- though one man may be found who can represent two of the classes vi- tally interested in radio. Asxignment of Waven. One of the first problems to be en- countered by the department will be the assignment of new wave lengths interference will be decrease the problem of whether to Zzone the country or classify the st tions will come up. If waves are as- zned by zones, it is pointed, out local interference will become greater, whereas if wave lengths are distribut- to different for example, papers and one te radio officia! entertainment, would be jammed again with many ews stories on one wave length, and with music and song on another. | Naturally there are not_ enough | waves between 285 and 455 meters to gi every operator of the 348 broadeasters a specific length, and so it would appear that a plan of com- hired classification and zoning would have to be tried out and regulated further by specific hours for operation. s thought. ver, that by using system of classification detailed full radio committee recently. andta’ zoning system with perhaps the maintenance of local time schedules in cities where there dre! seydyal *broadcasting stations, much cal accomplsfhed to ciear the air. | TO CAMP MEADE FOR DUTY. l Sheldon W.

Capler today was await- ing the return of his spouse, Mrs. Catherine Capler. who, he sald, had been lurcd away from him by an “unholy occult” influence exer- cised over her by Swalde. She had promised to return to him, Capler declared, if the Injunction were Is- sued. The injunction hearing disclosed suit for divorce against Capler by his wife, instigated, it is oharged, by Swaide. It disciosed alsg that Capler recently filed & suft for $20,000 against Swalde, leging alienation of his wife's affections. Capler declared he and his wife had lived together happlly for fifteen years, but that since Mrs. Capler “became acquainted with Swalde two years ago she fre- guently had gone away with Swaide, expiaining she could not resist his command to accompany him.
