URGES LAW TO CHECK
MONOPOLY IN RADIO
Trade Body Official Pleads for
Enactment of White
Control Bill.

Enactment of the White radio con-
troll bill was urged today by c. B.
Cooper, chairman on broadcasting CO.
operation of the Radio Trade Asso
citation. as a means of preventing a
monopoly of broadcasting.
'aThe radio world fears a monopoly
Of broadcasting, and although assur-
ances have come from the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company
that they do not intend to establish
such a monopoly" said Mr.. Cooper,
radio broadcasting is too precious
and important a thing to become the
prey of large corporation. should
the opportunity present itself.
people commonly believe that the
government controls the air, but it
does not under the present law. The
Department of Commerce has tried to
control it and considering the tools of
law and money. they have been doing
a mighty good job, but the art and
business of radio has outgrown the
present system and we require an up
to-date law and set of regulations.
THE two laws governing radio in
the United States have outgrown
their usefulness. because neither
deals specifically with the most i'm
portant branch of radio. and that is
broadcasting. Neither gives the Sec
retary of Commerce the right to re-
fuse licenses. If / wanted to, | could
put up a station, demand a license,
put on business. phonograph or
other kind of program for twenty
four hours a day. Under the present
laws, 1 don't believe I could be
stopped as long as L attended to bust
ness and did not cause malicious in
reference.
'On the other hand there is nothing
in the present laws to prevent a radio
monopoly and as long as we leave
radio open to a possible monopoly,
there will always be some person or
group trying to find a way to do it.
Right now, if the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company sue
ceeds in putting forward a license
that stops at 500 watts and does not
provide for the use of wires outside
the studio, they have all stations
'sewed up In other words, no other
broadcasting stations will be able to
relay programs. And by the eXclu-
siNe use of high power, they could
blanket every station in existence
and lease outside wires only to their
own stations.
