RADIO RULING viewed
As NOT BEING FINAL
Decision in Chicago Battle Held
Unlikely as Settling
Air Disputes.

Continuance Of the legal radio
battle In Chicago Is viewed here only
as postponing. and not as ultimately
changing, the final court decision
prohibiting a broadcast station from
interfering with station that pre-
ceded it on the air.
The entire question, it is pointed
out, is one Of common law that ex-
tends to the operation of radio plants
as we'll as to any other form of
business. The only point on which
the case Of station VICES can remain
in litigation, it is believed, is that
which involves the frequency separa-
ton necessary between VICES and
WGN in order to prevent VICES from
interfering with the Tribune plant.
In some quarters it is held unfor-
tunate that the original test case of
interfering broadcasters was not filed
by a station whose programs were
being interrupted by a station oper-
ating at closer frequency than In
the case Of the WGES-WGN dispute.
Forty kilocycles separation, according
to many prominent radio engineers.
should be sufficient to prevent the
heterodyning Of the waves from two
broadcasters located in the same city.
Several instances of plants oper-
ating within Is miles of each other
on considerably less frequency sep
aration than 40 kilocycles can be
found throughout the country. the
majority of them arising since the
court decision of July, which held that
any station that so wished could
choose it's wave length.
In New York City two such cases,
theoretically more serious than the
Chicago affair, are the subject of
much agitation and much hard feel
ing, both between broadcasters and
among listeners.

GITLAWTZ TO DENUR
TO GAS PUMP Charge
Lawyer to File Answer in
Police Court on
Sept. s

Giving notice of his intent to file q
demurrer to the complaint charging
LYMAN Gitlavitz, proprietor of the
Handy Garage at Elm and Seymour
streets, with violation of the city
ordinance under which curb gaso-
line pumps are prohibited, Attorney
Donald Gaffney representing Gitla-
vitz, was granted a continuance in
police court this morning until We'd
nesday, September s. Judge Alling
said he has no objection to a con-
tinuance and Prosecuting Attorney
Woods said any date that is pre-
ferred by the defense counsel is
agreeable to the state.
Gitlavitz is one OF three gasoline
station proprietors who have failed
to remove their pumps from the
curb, in obedience to the ordnance
passed last year. City Engineer J.
w. Williams brought the situation
to the attention of the prosecuting
attorney, who issued a warrant
which was served last night by Ser
geant Patrick j. O'Mara.
Attorney Gaffney waived the read
ing OF the complaint when the case
was called and asked that a con-
tinuance be granted. He asked that
he be excused from pleading to the
charge because a plea would pre-
clude the right to file the con-
templated demurrer.
He said he understood the charge
has TO do with curb pumps. Judge
Alling said the case is different from
that of Harry Alex, one of the 9TH
ers whose pump VS. not removed,
and who was arrested a few weeks
ago. The charge in the Alex case is
one of selling gasoline without
permit and comes under state
statute while the charge in this case
has to do with obstructing the high
way without authority and is
brought under a city ordinance.
City Engineer Williams was in
court with records to be used in his
testimony, but because of the con-
tinuanee he was not called to the
stand.
