HEIDELBERG (#)—Students of the University of Heldelberg, who cling to the ancient practice of rapier dueling are grateful that the state boundary line runs close by thelr alma mater ‘Were it not for this convenient bound- ary line, dueling might be a thing of the past here.

Reform in its methods of re radio, under whieh the muel demned “zone system” 18 wiped out and each commissioner sits as representing the United States at large rather than his own geographicai sone, has been effected by the Federal Radio Commis- sion. Taking a tip from the United States Bureau of Efficiency, the commission hes entirely revamped its procedure in a way that, it is hoped, will expedite its work and leave less to be complained about. The “zone system” has been the target of criticism at the hands of Congress during the nearly three years of the commisison's existence. m- missioners are arpmmnd a8 represent- atives of each of the flve radio sones, but, s a body, to regulate radio as a whole. ‘The past practice has been for lating. con- the commissioner of a particular zone | to handle all of the business originating in his supposed jurisdiction and then to transmit it to the commiasion for action, along with his recommendation. STAR, WASHINGTON, ] routed to the particular division in- volved and then to the commissioner or ioners dele&nud to supervise the specific phase the regulatory work. Finally, with the recommenda~ tions of the subordinates all down the line, the matter comes before the full commission for vote. From every source there has been condemnation of the “sone system,” since it erupted into a condition where a commissioner was inclined to protect his own zone and radio constituency against the others. The radio law spe- cifies that the Nation be divided into five separate zones, disproportionate in Area, but ap| rnximawl¥ equal in popu~ lation, and that radio facllities be allo- ::ted on an equitable basis among these nes. the commission has not interfered with it in abolishing the “zone system” of regulation. It has only gone so far as to erase those imaginary lines in ad- ministering radio in the United States by the commissioners appointed from those zones. Melon Causes Auto Crash. RICHMOND, Ky.
