Ko /n CI‘)e:cm —e~Patrick’s day. during the THE TVEN RADIO COMMISSION HOLDS AUTHORITY Hoover Continues to Refer All Questions to United States Board. After conferring with President Cool- Hoover has referred back to the Fede Radio Commission, which was tempo- rarily shorn of its administrative pow- ers pending action of Congress on the fadio bill now in conference. This was anticipated as the logical step for the Secretary of Commerce to take in| visw of the palpable intent of Con- | gress to eoxiend the commission for| another vear. | Mr. Hoover's action docs not make the whale radio problem an appeal to | b2 handled under the appellate juris- /! diction conferred upon the Radio Com mission under the radio act of 1927 He simply has referred the commission > act. which | nay refer to | w the terms of Meanwh . the une rl.\im\ of the cc conducive to ali bod\ on any phase or the radio <lm» e status quo is “frozen.” as 1 April 1 at least.

Nor will any action | de taken on the important short-wave | problem. ‘The House and Senate conferees will be divided on the equalization amend- ment, and their deliberations are not likely to get the bill reported before mext week. Possibly it will take longer. House members are committed to the Davis amendment equalizing stations. ‘wave lengths and powers to the respec- tive zones. Senator Dill. father of the radio law. opposes an equalization scheme based on a reallocation of the Ppresent physical properties of the | broadcasters. Senator Dill wants an equalization on the basis of “service” rather than ©of area or population. He is particu- larly disturbed about the probable ef- fect of the House amendment on con- ¢ditions in his own State of Washington and in the Pacific and Rocky Mountain regions. This section has plenty of broadcasting stations today, serving widespread areas. The fifth zone does not want to lose any of its stations mor does it want any more added. The problem in his own zone has given the Washington Senator a per- spective that leads him to the belief that the original act made the mistake of dividing the countries into zones on 8 geographical basis since radio knows no physical boundaries. He is hopeful ol 2 compromise that will assure every section of the country equality of ser\- i ice. he said.
