COMMISSION TO
REDUCE RADIO
STATIONS HALF

WASHINGTON, Dec. l t49 = A
wholesale elimination of radio stations
that may reduce their number by half
during 1923 is contemplated by the
federal radio commission.
In an announcement today upon the
new policy, the commission declared
its determination to deny re-licenses
after February l to a large number of
stations, in an endeavor to clear up
the broadcasting situation and ex-
planned why it considered such action
advisable
Individual members of the COM
mission have, from the very first, real
lied that the elimination of some 300
broadcasters was eventually the only
real solution for the present over
crowding of the air channels" the
commissions statement said. But the
commissioners recognized also that i'm
portant constitutional questions are
involved in license denials and trans
fcrs and that in some cases court ac-
tion could be expected, 1t therefore
proceeded to make the best of bad
situation denying licenses to
none. But now, the commission finds
itself in Il wholly different situation
Local and national reception will with
in 60 days have been put in the best
condition possible with the present
number of stations on the air.
Further improvement will have to
come by elimination of stations not
rendering service corresponding to the
interference they cause. Court in
functions in such cases cannot now
interfere with the clearing that has
been accomplished in the long wave
portions Of the spectrum. From this
time on the commission therefore can
devote itself to clearing up the re-
inainder of the broadcasting band by
transfers and denials of licenses"
Commissioner Pickard said that in
the contemplated license denials the
commission would be guided by recon-
nendations of the commerce depart
lnent radio inspectors stationed in the
various districts. The announcement
said that on December l all broad
casting stations will work under tenn
porary licenses which have been ex-
tended to February l. There are now
GOA licensed stations
