LAW INADEQUATE.

Secretary Hoover has always real
lied, and frequently expressed, the
inSufficiency of the 1912 law, and
largely for that reason has dealt with
the entire subject through annual
conferences of all persons interested
in radio communication. whether rs
transmitters or listeners. The con
illusions Of these conferences have al
most universally been put into prac-
tice. so that radio has been largely a
seIf-regulated industry.
The future would seem to depend
entirely upon the attitude of Con
gress towards legislation and lis de-
termination as to whether federal con.
troll of the situation shall be con
tinued."

No REGULATIONS.

while | have not seen the text
of the decision and therefore cannot
have any final opinion on it," said
Mr.. Davis. 1T seems from reports to
be definite holding that the 1912
radio act confers no authority upon
anyone to assign either wave lengths
or time 10 radio stations.
III this is the view of the law, it
means that neither brOadcasting nor
other forms Of radio communication
are subject to any federal regula-
ton. but that station operators may
select wave lengths and time at their
wish.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-09-24

good voice for announcing, but
he has the trick of putting pep into
his work; that quality that almost
makes the crowd forget the marvel
of the telegraph and feel as if they
were standing at the ringsice.
Some amusing things took place in
that gathering, especially after the
main fight was well under way. One
woman, a Dempsey admirer, listenlng
to the announcement of the rain OF
blows being struck by Tunney, ex.
claimed: why, the big brute is
hitting him with both hands,
That Douglas people admire clean
sportsmanship was demonstrated arter
the fight when the announcements
was made that Dempsey, tern ano
bleeding, had greeted the new CHAM
pion by saying: THE best man won.
[ have no alib." That brought plenty
of cheers and showed that even IN
defeat, Dempsey was worthy of the
honor he held and lost.
The outstanding feature of the
crowd was it's orderly conduct There
was cheering, of course, but no rough
stuff" The crowd was there to enjoy
the Dispatch's big news party and
the orderly manner in which tho
people conducted themselves was proof
enough Of their appreciation
