Opposite Tivoli Open Evenings Across the River Extension of the life of broadcasting € Eome: ity station licenses from the three-month period now prescribed by the radio law to six months or a year will be sought when Congress again takes up the broadcasting problem this Winter. The 1928 amendment to the Radio act of 1927 extends the authority of the Federal Radio Commission until March 16, 1929, and stipulates that licenses be granted owners of broadcasting stations for 90 days. Last Winter the National Association of Broadcasters sought to persuade the authors of the amendment to provide a longer license period, but radio legislation leaders were opposed to any extension, at least until the com- mission had worked out the equal allo- cation of stations. With the new allocation effective in November, the broadcasters plan to re- new their efforts to obtain longer licenses. They point out that the broad- caster who has been granted permission to operate his station only three months cannot make his advertising contracts, engage artists, arrange program mate- rial and improve his equipment on a YOU'RE THERE WITH A / Telephone Lincoln 556 LARGER CELLS THAN STANDARD BATTERIES. ..... .
