Equal distribution, "as nearly as possible" in broadcasting stations is required" on a basis of zone popn- lations. This sounds reasonable until one begins to investigate. Then one finds that such distribution for New York state calls for total of 10000 watts, when as q matter of fact both WEAF and WIZ, pioneer broad- casters in the east and the ccntcrs of the red and blue networks. already have 10000 watts each.
