SHORT WAVE GRANT
FIGHT IN CONGRESS-
Award to Universal Bobs Up
in House Subcommittee
Hearing.
Rr THE Associated Press.

BE- the Associated Press.
When the Federal Radio Commits
sioners granted 30 short waves to the
Universal Wireless Communications Co.
a radio newcomer, a lot OF static was
stirred up
officials, lawyers and engineers Of the
Radio Corporation of America descend
ed en- masSe on the commission to pro-
test at the failure to grant the r. c. A.
wave lengths for the establishment OF
a domestic radio telegraph system SINH
lar to that proposed by the Universal.
why are we-pioneers in the devel-
opment of radio communication and
possessing the experience and appara-
tus essential to the success OF this great
new service to the public-pasSed up?"
they asked.
The commercial telegraph companies
suddenly took notice of their new COM
petitor. Although some high officials
of the wire companies expressed Skep-
ticism of radio competing with land
lines, emissaries of these companies
soon appeared at the commissions Of
fees to find out what it was all about.
Grant Under Fire.
And now the commissions grant to
the Univer-Nl is under fire in Congress.
1t bobbed uo in the House committees
hearing on radio administration with
the announcement by Representative
Free of California that the committee
wanted to know whether the commits
sion had done the right thing by award
ing the channels to the Universal over
the applications of the Radio Corpora
ton and the Mackay Radio and Tele-
graph Co.
He said that he had information that
the Universal did not have the suitable
apparatus"
Senator Dill, co-author of the radio
act. also wants to know more about the
Universal company. He declares the
matter will be thoroughly investigated
at the Senate hearings on radio. ON
the other hand, Senator Dill on several
occasions has denounced the alleged
monopoly created by the Radio Cor
poration and affiliated companies.
He has a resolution pending in the
Senate that the Attorney General obtain
evidence against the r. G. A. gathered
by the Federal Trade Commission and
take such action as the evidence war
rants.
Rival Sits Tight.
Meanwhile DR.. John Nathansohn,
Washington representative of the Uni
versal, who obtained the grant from
the commission, is sitting tight with
his 40 channels and potential COMPETE
tors guessing.
To the charge of rivals that secrecy
and mystery have cloaked the opera
tons of the company he replies that
it must guard its devices against the
encroachmentS of possible competitors.
The question of stock issue Is up to
the directors of the company, who are
Buffalo business men capable of financ-
ing the system themselves, he says.
John w. Henry, president Of the Vim
Cycle Auto Co. of Buffalo is the presi-
dent.
Members of the commission explain
that the Radio Corporation and the
Mackay company were not refused adj
mittance to the domestic radio tele-
graph field, but that action on their
applications was deferred. The Uni
versal company has been given a year
to get its service started.
Radio history shows that almost any,
thing can happen in that period.
