Effective Immediately.

The law becomes effective upon its
passage, the five members of the com
mission to be appointed by the Presi-
dent from as many zones described in
the bill and subject to the Senates
confirmation. The 60-day period after
passage affords the present broad
casters time to apply to the commits
sion for new licenses. It is probable
that some of these-the number Is now
7OO-will have to cease operating. 1t
is also apparent that upon the restric-
tive regulations laid down by the com
mission depends the clearing of the
present chaos in the ether.

RADIO ACT GIVES
PERIOD Of GRACE
Proposed Law Allows Sixty
Days Before Edicts
Are Issued.

For sixty days after passage of the
newly proposed radio control law a
period of grace is esta blished by the
Federal Radio Commission for the
broadcasters who have been going
their own unrestricted way for half
year or more. Then the newly created
Government control agency vested by
the law with original jurisdiction for
one year over the granting, renewal
and revocation of all station licenses
and with full power to make regula-
tions will begin issuing its edcts.
The regulations, among other things,
will prescribe the qualifications and
duties of the broadcaster The board s
decisions will declare who shall be
licensed to broadcast and under what
conditions: that is, what power, wave
length and time the respective sta
lions may use.
Appeal Only to Courts.
Routine issuance of licenses, which
for broadcasters shall be for three
year terms and for all others five,
and ordinary administrative functions
are left to the Department of Com
MERGE for the year of the commits
sion's judicial life" After that origi-
nal jurisdiction over licensing and
conditions of broadcasting reverts to
the Department of Commerce, but con-
troversies may be refereed or appeals
carried to the commission, which shall
sit periodically. From the latter's de-
cisions appeals may be taken to the
courts only.
The foregoing is, in effect, the con
troll feature of the new radio law ten
tatively agreed upon by the full CON
ference committee of Congress. 1t APP
neara 70 he the final COMPROMISE be-
tween the Senate view that a com
mission should control radio, and the
House view that the Secretary of Com
merce should be given control. AL
though the committee meets again
Wednesday to reconsider the bill as
now written, every indication is that
it will be reported favorably as it now
reads.
A legislative fight may be expected
before the bill is enacted, but its pas
sage is more than likely if it bears the
approval of the diverse political ele-
ments that compromise the conference

Cities Losing Residents

villages and small towns are again
showing Increase In population, con-
trary to popular understanding. AS a
matter of fact the Institute Of Social
and Religious Research has found
from heretofore unpublished census
figures that the rate of city popula-
ton increase in 1900 to 1920, fell from
"a per cen to 52.1 per cent. while the
rural rate was pushed up to 20.7 per
cent.
The discrepancy is due to govern
ment bookkeeping, according to Rob-
ert McCulluch who made a study for
the survey. The government auto
matically changes a town or village
to a city when it reaches $500 popu-
lation.
