justing her production so that she
may be placed on an export basis.
Washington farmers whose farms
are adapted and whose farming
equipment is flexible enough
should plan to work over a part OF
their present wheat area to feeds
to be fed to some kind of live
stocks.
Fall wheat seedlings in Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho were reduc-
ed Is per cent from that of 1927;
the area seeded in 1928 was esti-
mated at 3,s46, 900 acres. This re-
duction was largely due to a very
favorable fall, since the wheat
belt of Eastern Washington was
practically without rain until Now
ember and on account of poor
termination much fall wheat will
have to be reseeded.
The condition of the fall wheat
was given as 20 in Washington,
but many expect that the ground
will thaw in time to let in at least
part of the moisture from the
heavy blanket of snow on the
wheat land at this writing. Of
course the weather will determine
the outcome of this.
Washington wheat growers who
are confined to wheat production
alone on account of lack of mois-
ture may not make any consider
able change in their crops. With
increasing competition is coming

agement of equipment and labor.
Hogs
The outlook for the hog industry
in Washington is more favorable
for 1929. There was a 10 per cent
reduction in the number of swine
on farms in this state on January
/ compared to the same date in
1927. This reduction coupled with
a / 1-2 per cent reduction in the
1928 fall pig crop in the Corn
Belt, as compared to a year pre-
vious, and reduction in the num-
Der of sows bred for spring farrow
in 1929, indicates lowered num-
bers to be marketed next fall. The
number of hogs in the Western
States on January was just about
the same as a year ago, while in
the United States as whole,
there was reduction of about 8
per cent.
Factors affecting the foreign
demand for American pork pro-
ducts have more favorable as
pect for the 1929 season than
they had a year ago. The out
standing points are: ~ Fewer
hogs in Europe, as indicated by re-
duced numbers of breeding sows
and smaller current marketings;
(2) A feed supply in Europe no
larger than the relatively small
supply of last year, and higher
prices for some imported feeds,
all of which tend to discourage in
creased breeding; (3) The Europ-
can price level for hogs and hog
products other than lard, substan-
TALLY above last year and (4) A

crease probable in Great Britain"

SENATE PROPOSES
|. BROADCAST|NG FEE
Upper House Adopts ResoIu.
ton Asking Commission to
Fix Schedule.

The imposition of license fees upon
broadcasting stations as we'll as other
licensed users of the ether looms as a
possibility of the near future. The first
definite step in this direction was taken
by the Senate just before it adjourned
sine die when it adopted a resolution
proposed by Senator Dill Of Washing
ton, requesting the Federal Radio Com
mission to formulate a schedule of fees
to be recommended to Congress.
In the jam of the closing session of
Congress this legislative action appar-
emily went unnoticed. but it is of great
significance to radio. The idea of
license fees was expressed. innocently
enough. by Chairman Robinson of the
commission, in recent testimony before
the House merchant marine committee.
He suggested that licensing would
trusteeship to the public" and also help
defray the mounting administrative
costs.
Resolved, That the Federal Radio
Commission is hereby requested to
formulate schedule Of fees to be rec
commended to Congress as the charges
which should be made for the different
kinds of radio licenses issued by the
commission and report the same to the
Senate for its consideration in connec-
ton with radio legislation at as early a
date as convenient to do So" reads the
Dill resolution. 1t was adopted without
a dissenting vote.
The commission has not yet under
taken the survey that must be made so
as to comply with the resolution. Chair
man Robinsons personal views, as he
outlined them to the committee, were
for the imposition of reasonable Ii
cense fee comparable to the class Of the
station" The broadcaster, or operator
of any radio station, would be little
more impressed with his trusteeship,' y
he said.
Pointing out that the current years
appropriation for the commission is
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-03-07

$364o00, Chairman Robinson said 1t
would be desirable to impose a license
fee to carry the expense of this admin
istration, particularly since broadcast
ing in the interest of the public does
have a purely private business phase
to 1t.
Just what procedure the commission
intends to follow in suggesting the
schedules of fees for the various kinds
of radio licenses as yet remains unde-
termined. 1t is possible that the COM
mission may ask all licensed stations
to submit financial reports of the gross
amount of their business. Chairman
Robinson thinks such a process would
be desirable. The fee, If one is charged,
could be in proportion to the amount
of business transacted by the particu-
lar station. The commission at this
time, he said, has the authority to re-
quire such reports. although 1t has no
rule or regulation providing for them.
For study of the propriety of IL
censing, it would be well to require such
reports" said Chairman Robinson
There is another element--it would
also give us the financial strength of
that station, and whether or not it was
rendering good service, or able to- 1t
would be enlightening in the considera-
ton of the renewal of the license"
