COUNCIL DOUBTS | MERGER VALIDITY Jdvisory Body Received Re- | port on Legislation, But k. Fails to Act on It. Doubtful of the power of the Gov- Proment to arbitrarily increase the fexation on public utility corporations for the purpose of forcing them to fnerge, the Citizens’ Advisory Council Jast night failed to adopt a report Rrging the enactment of legislation to gompel the Washington street car Woinpanies to consolidate. The report, submitted by a special mmittee headed by W. I. Swanton, commended legislation to induce the nies to unite similar to that sed by the Public Utllitles Com- mission. While the commission’s bill Provides an increase of 50 per cent on the gross revenues of the com- mies. which would be repealed if a ?r.msv lidation is consummated by July nton’s report did not ount for the ad- fitional tax burden nor did it set o @etinite time limitation for putting it $nto effect. In this connection the re ort merely stated that “consideration B iven to the undoubted power of the Government by taxation to bring Mout and compel the much desired gonsolidation.” The question as to the validity puch a weapon to compel a merier Wwas raised by Harry stull, who eaid that there is considerable doubt @5 to the committee’s statement con: cerning the “undoubted power” of Congress to raise the taxes on certain public utility corporations and dis criminate against others. "I have talked with several lawyers about this geature of the utility commission's Bill.” he said, “and they do not believe that it will stand up in the courts. To Study Merger Bills. As a result of Mr. Stull's argument. the council voted to file the report for its future use in considering any merger legislation that may be re- | ferved to it later. The special com- guittes was continued, however, to consider and report on any Dbills de- pigned to force a consolidation which introduced at the coming session ngress “The time has come in the growth of the National Capital when a merger or consolidation of the street railway eompanies operating in_the Dist of Columbia is imperative in the in- gerest of both the public and the com- yanics themselves,” said the mittee’s report ““Fhe merger is needed by the public fn the interest of efficient, economical and unified service, which would re sult in a saving in the operation and overhead expenses, and thus tend to peduce fares. This is the only city t, the country, so far as is known. ith the possible exception of San Francisco, where there are two com panies —the Capital Traction Co. and the Washington Rallway & Electric Co.—farming out, so to speak, the re- epective parts of the city between them, resulting in restricted develop ment and lack of unified service to the | traveling public Teferring to the question of valu atlon raised by the companies, the report de red that this “is an ob- stacle which it seems impossible to overcome, as the several parties in | fntevest cannot seem to agree upon weluations for the purpuse of a merger proposition by voluntary means. In 3 com- Eu\.ny cases,” it added, ‘“valuations ave been built up by reinvestments of earnings bevond those needed for the payment of dividends, and it is desired by the companies to pay divi- dends on these reinvested earnings. n other words, the public, which has furnished the capital, is now asked to yay dividends to others on money urnished by itself.

Radio fans will recall that WPAP just a few months ago asked the lighthouse keepers just ‘what sort of an ideal “lighthouse keepers' " program they preferred. The vote was overwhelmingly. in favor of jazz, 148 indicating a pref- erence for this exotic type of music. There were only 26 among them who expressed a wish for classical music. Four stated a preference for travelogues and historical lec- tures set to music, and one wanted harmonica solos only. Another asked for Broadway revues only. NEW BROADCAST STATIONS LISTED Four Installed, One Surren- ders License, Leaving Total qf 620 in Operation. Four States received new broad- casting stations this week, it was an- nounced by the Department of Com- merce today. The States are New York, Oregon, Texas and Michigan. Partly offsetting the addition of the four new. stations, one broadcaster surrendered his license during the week, leaving the total number of plants in operation at 620. The four newcomers are WILCI, owned by the Lutheran Association of Ithaca, Y., and operating on 266 meter KXL, owned by KXL Broadcasters of Portland, Ores., oper- ating on 400 meters; KGDO, owned by C. H. and Henry Garrett, Dallas, Tex., operating on 285 meters, and WWPR, the Detroit Police Depart- ment, using the 300-meter wave length. The latter station is expected to continue the work originally begun in the Detroit Police Department: by Station KOP. The station leaving the air this week was WEB! a lower-powered plant at Savannah, Ga. Coincident with the licensing of the four new stations, four additional wave-jumpers were cited by the de- partment. Two of the changes were to higher wave lengths than those on which the stations formerly operated, and the other two were to channels lower than those previously used. | The two jumps were WFCI, Pawtucket, climbed from KW Santa A moved from 260.7 to meters. The two drops were made KRLD, Dall from 357.1 to) meters, and KSBA, Shreveport, which dropped from 312.6 to meters.
