RADIO FIGHTS
CUT IN POWER
u. S. Supreme Court May
Make First Decision on
Act Of 1927

WASHINGTON, July 26.-(R-
The fight of a Chicago broadcast
ing station against orders Of the
federal radio commission reducing
its power may bring from the Unit
ed States supreme court this fall,
its first decision on the validity Of
the radio act o. 1927.
The case of WCRW, which sought
to enjoin the CO omission from en-
forcing orders reducing the power
Of that station from 500 to 100 watts
has been certified to the supreme
court of appeals for Illinois for rul-
ing on the legal questions involved.
Notified by the commission last
August that their transmission pow
er must be cut, WCRW and WEDC,
also Chicago station, sought tenn
porary injunctions in district court,
restraining the commission from
the orders. The court denied the
temporary i~njunctions, and in the
a S Of WCRW appeal was taken
to the circuit court.
Both broadcaSterS contended that
the drastic reduction of power
would restrict their listening areas.
They declared that the commits
sion summarily reduced their pow
er without previous notice and with
out giving them a hearing on that
issue. They attacked the validity
of the radio law on the ground that
it gave the commission the power
to take property without compensa-
ton.
The commission holds that con-
gress by the radio act and its power
to regulate interstate commerce has
authorized the commission to stip-
ulate the power and ~wavelengths to
be used by stations.

NURSE
ENDED LIFE

Unable to find any evidence point
ing to murder, police were inclined
today to lean to a suicide theory as
they delved into the death Of Mrs.
Virginia Mcpherson, pretty young
nurse of the Park Lane Apartments.
Investigators refused. however. to
express definite opinion pending
the outcome of a coroner's inquest
set for tomorrow.
Cord Bound Neck,
The principal point about which
the inquiry will hinge is whether
or not the girl could have tied a
paJama cord around her neck. Her
throat was bound in this manner
when her husband discovered the
body Saturday.
Having quarrelled and separated
from his wife. the husband, Robert
A. Mcpherson, ir., q 22.year.old
bookkeeper, went to her apartment
to discuss q joint bank account
only to find her lips sealed by
death.
Unnerved by loss of sleep and dis.
tress, Mo 7herson sobbed as he
viewed his wife's body yesterday at
an undertaking establishment in
the 1900 block Tenth st. N. w,
Tears trinkled down McPherson's
face as he whispered his wife S
name. He found it difficult to step
aside and permit the sealing Of the
casket as It was made ready to be
forwarded to the girls home in
China Grove, N. C.
Doubts Murder
Pointing to the fact that Mrs.
Mcpherson had attempted to end
her life two months ago by irhal-
ing illuminating gas, Mcpherson
told police he was unable to believe
the girl had been the victim Of foul
play.
After attending the funeral ser.
vices in North Carolina today. Nc.
Pherson will return here for the
inquest tomorrow. He Is expected tt
be the chief witness. Several friends
will testify.

CIVIL WAR seen
IN AUSTRIA

VIENNA, Sept. ia large sec.
ton Of the Austrian Republic is
an armed camp today az the result
Of hostility between political factions
and government and rural provinces
jealousy fighting to retain many
Of their pre-war prerogatyes.
Federal Chancellor Steeruwitz is
taking vigorous steps to maintain
peace and prevent further fighting.
Police and detachments from the
regular army are being used to
localize the classes between oppos-
ing armed factions and to prevent
fighting.
Program Necessary
General alarm and tension arts.
ing from strife between the hostile
factions grew to such proportions
the Federal Chancellor decided that
q definite pacification program was
necessary, If actual civil war is to
be averted.
Chancellor Steeruwitz is described
as the first business man to govern
! Austria since it was made a repub-
lic." He has American ideas of eff
ficiency to get things accomplished.
Unexpected Opposition
After deciding to disarm the two
powerful party armies" the chan
cellor began to encounter unexpected
opposition from several Of the pro.
vincial governors, especially the
governor of Syria, Herr Rfntelen,
and the governor Of Tyrol, Herr
Stumpf. Both sided with the Fa.
cist Heimwehren, and declared such
q Fascist organization necessary
political weapon against the Social
lists.
Herr Seitz, burgomaster and gov
ernor Of Vienna, answered he would
replace the federal police in Vienna
with municipal (Socialist) police.
The situation was further com.
plicated by the sudden political move
of the recently retired Austrian
''priest.chancellor." Monsig
Seipel, leader Of the Clericals who, in
open opposition to his successor, de-
1ivered several speeches in support
Of the cooperation of Clerieals and
the Heimwehren.
