Aviators in Line The procession today included a| number of aviators, for “Our Lady of Loreto” was proclaimed their pro- | tectress by the late Pope Benedict |XV; American touring motorists and their families, and peasants clad in the vivid costumes of the Abruzzi and the Marches. Many came into | town on foot, priests, students, old | men and women, grandmothers lead- ing broods of grandchildren and | mothers carrying their latest born in baskets balanced on their heads. | To the chant of Litanies they all wound through the principal street into the piazza of the Madonna.

Washington, Sept. 8 (A—The fel- eral government is seeking to obtain from the supreme court before the close of this year a ruling on its -Jurisdiction over radio communica- tion. Contending that radio broad is interstate commerce, the govern- ment insists the congressional au- thority for licensing and regulating stations was given constitutionally Two cases pending before the court challenge this validity and their usc as tests is being sought. Challenges Authority The first of these, brought stations WCRW at Chicago, lenges the authority of the radio commission to cut its power from 500 watts, which it had been using for some time, to 100 watts. The case will be reached for oral argu- ment in November, and the govern- ment has requested the court to ad- vance for hearing at the same time a case brought by the American Bond & Mortgage compuny anl Trianon, Inc., operating stations WMBB and WOK. at Homewood Illinois, near Chicago. protesting th- rvefural of the commission to renew their licenses. by chal- The federal district cour: in Chicago prohibited operation without a 1i- cense, but the circuit court of ap- peals asked the highest court for in- structions.

They charged the station had broadcast without permission a copyrighted composition and the hotel had pick- ed it up and reproduced it for its guests. The broadcasting company presented no defense, but the hotel company contested.
