HOPE Slim OF

Lengthy Radio License
Desire Not to be Re-
allied For Year

WASHINGTON, March 5.-tP-
The hope Of many radio station own
ers OF obtaining long term broad
casting licenses probably will no be
realized for a year or more, radio
observers here believe.
In addition TO the attitude Of the
federal radio commission in op-
posing the extension Of license pc
RODS until the broadcnstinR situn-
ton has bee satisfactorily cleared
up, opposition has developed in
congress to freezing" the radio
spectrum. Judge Eugene o. Sykes,
acting chairman of the commission,
declares IL would be unwise TO
grant long term licenses until re-
ception has been greatly improved.
The commission has been granting
licenses for only so days so that il
could make necessary changes In
the interest Of the listening public.
Representative Erwin l.. Davis,
democrat, Of Tennessee. has suR-
gested 10 the committee on Marine
and Fisheries which has charge Of
radio legislation lin the house, that
the law be amended to limit the
life of broadcasting licenses to 90
days. The radio law authorizes the
issuance Of licenses up to three
years. Mr.. Davis said he did not
propose TO strike out the three year
clause but would hold IL in suspen-
sion q year.
Paul w. Morency. field representa-
tive Of the National Association of
Broadcasters, declares the desire or
every station, which intends to re-
main in the broadcasting business,
IL for sterilization OF the industry.
There are two factors which will
bring this about, Mr.. Morency saws,
the granting of longer term licens-
es by the commission and the find
ing Of men Of ability 10 place In

The first factor is vital to the in
