REV. B0B SHULER WINS RADID PLEA Examiner Backs Renewal, but Holds Some of Broad- ¢ casts “Indiscreet.” By the Associated Press. Ellls A. Yost, chief examiner of the | Radio Commission, today recommended | renewal of the license of Station KGEF, Trinity Methodist Church South, m:i A?elu, operated by Rev. Beb Shuler. | ‘0st held the public intercst would | be servea by granting Dr. Shuler’s re- newal application, but_expressed the | opinion the minister had been “ex-| indiscreet in some of his broadeests.” | The commission, in re¢ess until Fall, has yet to pass on the examiner's rec- dation. | “Eyidently broadcasts were made by | him (Shuler) before investigation and inquiry to deterimine the correctness of such broadcests,” Yost said. “The prectice of reflzcting upon the | character cf a citizen, based solely on | yumors and unverified reports, resulting | in Injury both to the business and rep- utation of such citizen, is indefensible. “Injury or injustice by reason of a radio broadcast may b irreparable. Un- just sttacks upon religious denomina- ticns increase religious prejudice and arouse community strife and antagon- nism; unwarranted criticism of the courts and public officlals tend to de- stray confidence of the people in free government, and are ag2inst public interest.” Case Reviewed in Detail. ‘The repart pointed out that a broad- casting license “does not confer upon any one the right or privilege to broad- cast any false, slanderous or libelous matter,” and said any abuse of the privileges conferred by a radio license would welgh heavily against the license upon the question of renewal. The 24-page opinion reviewed the Shuler case in detall. It said the station represented an investment of $43,250, of which sum $25,000 was a gift to Dr. Shuler. The station was held his per- sonal property, verbally leased to the church. The examiner reported that it was t to him that Dlr shm;: and & great many people within the area served were convinced that his broad- casts had rendered a distinctive public service, and that it was “just as ap- parent that a great many people within that area are equally convinced these broadcasts have been against public in- terest.’ “It appears that Dr. Shuler is free to wholly determine the matters broadcast by him,” the examiner said, adding the 4,200 r_raons composing the member- ship of the church were “a unit in sup- porting his radio broadcast.” The examiner said he believed the church congregation to be “representa- tive of the good citizenship of Los An- geles.” ; Church’s Statement Cited. i He said further that various church; organizations had insisted that the broadeasts had urged uj the public | a striet compliance with law, honesty in office, speedier and more ef- | fec! punich rent of law violators and | other measures for the public good. 1 The report sald it was mot for the, exeminer to determine how far Dr. Shuler should go in criticizing, con- demning or praising public officials and candidates. In order to justify denial of the ap- lication, Yost said, the broadcasts of %n r must appear to be of “such disservice as to outweigh all lic service rendered by all other | ts made over the applicant station, Sipce Dr. Shuler broadcasts only 3 hours each week out of a total of 23% hours this station is on the air, the| religious, d: cized. In an advance note, the examiner said he was of the opinion the testimony of Dr. Thomas J. Orbison, alienist. tend- ing to show the effect of the broad- casts of Dr. Shuler upon certain types of minds was immaterial and irrelevant.
