CONGRESS- BATTLES
 OVER RADIO BILL Issue Follows Lame Duck Matter < in Importance

< Washington, March fP-The na- ton-old question of state rights has nterWoven itself into one of the Hewcst problems confronting con- gress-the control of radio broad casting.
 By coincidence this issue today held placo on the house legisla- tive program second to the Lame Duck" constitutional amendment, a subject that also sent the attention of members back over the pages of history to discern the intent of the nations founders.
 . The radio controversy hinges on proposal to allocate broadcasting wave lengths to states on the basis of population, which is attached in the form of an amendment to the senate bill to extend for one year the life of the Federal Radio Commis- sion. ..
 'nasmuch as the commissions life expires ill just one week. little time remains for deliberation.
 The amendment sponsored by epresentative Davis. Tennessee. re- contly was approved by a r. to 5 vote by the house merchant marine committee on which he is the rank ing democratic member. Specifically, It provides for an equal distribution ot radio stations. power and vattage among the states, territories and other possessions in proportion to their population.
 The proposal, if approved, ts ex- eeted to give more radio stations to southern states and diminish the number now existing in northern and western areas.

The heavy columns and round-headed
