Preparing to take over many more duties when the administrative life of the Federal Radio Commission lapses next March, the radio division of the Department of Commerce is seeking an appropriation of $320,000 from Con- gress. Part of this amount is to be spent in the establishment of super- visory suboffices at Buffalo, Minne- apolis, St. Louls, Dallas, Denver and Los Angeles. The appropriation, already approved by the Bureau of the Budget and hav- ing every promise of passage, also contemplates addition of two more radio-inspection cars to the fleet now avallable for fleld work in checking broadcasting stations and serving as tryout headquarters for tors, amateurs and professionals seek- ing Government licenses. The six new offices will require ad- ditional personnel, also provided for in the appropriation. They will not rep- resent new radio divisions in the coun- try, for the nine divisions will be main- tained with their headquarters in many cities. The only recent perso nel change was the transfer of Super- visor Harold Hayes, formerly of San Francisco, from Washington to Chi- cago to succeed Supervisor Beane, re- signed. One of the radio tests cars is now In Atlanta, and the three others are at Detroit, two being outfitted for dis- patching to Chicago and San Fran- cisco, while one will work out of the Detroit supervisory office. The two new cars will probably be sent to Bal- timore and Boston. Besides the $320,000 the radio divi- sion is asking a deficlency appropria- tion of $100,000, most of which was occasioned by expenditures on behalf of the Federal Radio Commission, which was left without funds at the close of the last session because of failure of the appropriation bill. In- creasing demands upon the Federal radio staff since the passage of the radio act, according to W. D. Terrell, chief of the radio division, have neces- sitated the larger appropriations. ‘The major portion of the General Motors “family party,” one of WRC's leading attractions tonight, will be composed of a revue directed by Rob- ert Benchley, humorist and dramatic critic of Life. More than 100 vocal and instrumental artists will be in- troduced during the revue. Benchley’s principal contribution to the program will be a burlesque speech concerning the experts who choose the “all America” foot ball teams. A novelty orchestra directed by Joe Green and a band concert con- ducted by Patrick Conway are other features of the “party.” The A. & P. Gypsies who will be heard in their weekly broadcast at 8:30 o'clock, have dedicated their pro- gram to the state of Michigan. The favorite selection of Gov. Frederick ‘W. Green, “The Wearing of the Green,” will be sung by Lewis James, tenor. Crane Wilbur, well known stage and screen star, will recite a few monologues at 6:20 o'clock, after which the Palais Royal Santa Claus ‘will broadcast more messages to chil- dren. Roxy’s weekly program will feature Manny King, tenor, who is well known in Washington, Baltimore and Phila- delphia. “Sidelights on on_the ‘Washington Shopping News"” will be broadcast to- night by Ralph Goldsmith, general merchandise manager of Lansburgh & Bros., through WMAL. Another . talk will be given by Mrs. George Barnett, executive chairman of the ‘Washington Gir] Scout Committee, on “Washington’s Insurance for its Fu- ture Womanhood.” ‘WMAL's musical attractions include & concert by the Silver String Rev- elers, a dance program by Joe Bom- brest’s Mi-Jo Orchestra and selections by Bell and Christie, popular radio entertainers. ‘The tri- weelfly children’s period con- ducted by Miss Evelyn Reichard, and the regular dinner concert feature the evening program of RHF, the ‘Washington Radio Hospital Fund Committee. The program will begin at 5:30 o'clock with the children’s period, which includes songs and storles. —_— CLAIMS 10,000,000 PESOS. Mexican Government Sues Gomez, Who Recently Was Executed. NOGALES, Ariz., December 5 (#).— Mexico is suing Gen. Arnulfo R. Gomez, executed presidential candi- date, for 10,000,000 pesos. The suit, said an official bulletin is- sued at Nogalcs. Sonora, across the border, serves notice that the federal public agent at Mexico City has de- creed the dead soldier-statesman must pay that sum to Mexico. No charges were mentioned in the bulletin. Suit for a similar amount was filed against Paulino Fontes, former head of the Mexican National Railways, who recently was acquitted on a charge of being a rebel leader. Attorneys here believe the Gomez suit constitutes governmental confls- cation of his estate. Gomez was shot as a rebel leader.

OR COLDS AND THROAT TROUBLES } LIES ON BOUNDARY Russian Border Is Location of Sore Spots Which May Kindle Flame. By Radio to The Star. PARIS, December 5.—The present European imbroglio must strike most Americans as utterly inexplicable, It is quite natural that the United States declines to put its finger in such an erratic machine. Nevertheless, Amer- ica must keep watch to prevent any maneuver which might encourage the rebirth of a war-like mentality in Europe, ~ Europe's sore spots at present are along the borders of Soviet Russia, and that makes them particularly dangerous. The sudden death of Premier Tonel Bratianu of Rumania, following the acquittal of M. Manoilescu, leader of the People's Party, who had raised the question of Prince Carol's return, demonstrated the principal defect in a dictatorial system—namely, the pos- sibility of the sudden disappearance of the dictator. System Involves Risk. Benevolent tyranny would be an ideal regime, if there were no risk of its being followed by a less benevolent tyrant. The situation in Bucharest remains confused. Moscow seeks to stir up trouble in the annexed territories of Bessarabia, Transylvania and Bukov- ina, while Premier Vintila Bratianu, who lacks his brother’s political genius, negotiates with the opposition parties. ‘Will he succeed in forming a Na- tional Union cabinet? It would greatly aid the country, which seeks credits in London, while refusing to pay im- mense debts to France. Meanwhile on the Baltic another episode in the old conflict between Poland and Lithuania is being enacted. Hope Held for Appeasal. It was thought Moscow and Berlin would act together, both in the Lithu- anian affair and in the disarmament question, but Comrade Litvinoff is an embarrassing partner to have, Count von Bernstorff has handled him cleverly without disposing of him en- tirely, however, and when Dictator Pilsudski of Poland comes in person to discuss the Lithuanian affair before all the nations at Geneva it is hoped the discord will be appeased. Finally, Foreign Minister Briand, in the Chamber of Deputies the other day, put the quietus on talk of Franco- Italian friction. War between these countries is impossible. It would arouse universal reprobation. And, what M. Briand failed to mention, it ‘would be doubly fratricidal, for an im- mense number of Italians would op- pose it at the risk of their lives. France does not seek a hegemony of Europe nor of the Balkans (where she desires only to maintain the status quo) nor elsewhere. But it must be remembered that Italy entered the war crying “Trent and Triests to Italy!” and in obtaining Fiume got more than she sought. Albanian Treaty Forms Danger. Italy has sufficient outlets to the Mediterranean and controls the A« atic_sufficiently so that she does not need to strangle her neighbor, Jugo- slavia, altogether. If Italy’s intentions are innocent the government can eas- lly_prove it. Unfortunately, Corfu is a disquieting precedent and the Alba- nian treaty is an element of danger. It must not be forgotten that a Franco-German peace entente, which Great Britain accepts, is the greatest guarantee of European peace and will dominate any conflict.
