new ALLEGATION
| SCHEME IS SOUGHT
More Equitable Division
!, Among States Is
Suggested.
~ MARTIN CoDEL.

Y An entirely new scheme of allocating
radio broadcast facilities to the States
Is being sought as the Senate Committee
on Interstate Commerce pursues its task
of revising the Couzens communications
bill in the hope of reporting 1t to Con-
greSs soon.
One plan for a more equitable divi-
sion among the States has been sub
United by Capt. Guy HILL u. s. A, who
retireS in April as acting chief engineer
of the Federal Radio Commission to
report for military duty in the Philip
pines.
other plans are being worked out by
Commissioners Saltzman and Lafount
in conformity with their promises to
the Senate committee. All the proposals
arc predicated upon the repeal of the
Davis equalization amendment, which
now divides radio facilities equally
among zones in proportion to popula-
ton.
Repeal of the Davis amendment has
already been asked i'll q bill introduced
by Senator Nye of North Dakota. An
other bill, just introduced by Repre-
sentative Wallace White of Maine, seeks
an elimination of the zone system OF
administering radio and the appoint
ment OF the radio commissioners as
recommended by President Hoover in
MS last message 10 OOIlSTcSS.
Details Of Capt Hills plan will not be
announced for several days. Mean
while it has been learned that its pri-
mary object is to eliminate the wide
disparity that now prevails in the
amount of radio facilities allotted the
States under the zone arrangement.
Under a formula recognizing State
rights and taking into account State
population and areas, it would make
additional facilities available to most
OF the AZ States while reducing those
now enjoyed by few. +,
Besides abolishing the zone system,
the Hill plan simply allows each States
quota to be determined SO per cent on
the basis of population, rs per cent on
the basis of area and rs per cent on
the basis of States rights. BY States
rights is meant that each State is ini-
TALLY entitled to that amount of avail
able facilities, the variable factors Of
population and area to determine the
rest.
That this plan win cause many
changes in the present set-up is con-
ceded, but it also means that inherent
objections to the present equalization
amendment will be removed. Now the
first zone of States gets the same ia
cilities as the fifth, even though the
NTH zone of Rocky Mountain and Pa
ciic Coast States represents two-fifths
Of the area of the United States.
One f1fth-zone State alone, Montana,
would embrace all the first zone and
leave room to spare.
Most States would get added allot-
ments of waves, powers and hours Of
operation under the Hill plan. Neces-
saril.- these would have to be taken
away from States now overpopulated
with radio stations among the States
which would thus suffer reductions are
New York Rhode Island, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Washington
and California.

Present developments, especially in

Irrespective Of the fact that natural
gas has twice the heating content OF

that large cities throughout the coun-

HIGHER WHEAT PRICE
FORECAST IN WEST
Improvement in Business Condi-
tons Is Noticed During
Past Week.

Special Dispatch TO The star.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-. September 10.
Some Improvement in the business
conditions Of the interior Is beginning
to be visible as the seasonal trade Is
felt.
The movement of grain to market
remains slow, and . general feeling ex.
lists that higher prices for wheat viii
come by the end Of the year. A price
Of 81 q bushel Is expected by most Of
the holders, and In the meanwhile o
considerable feeding Of wheat to live
stock is depicting the much-discussed
surplus. Indeed, it Is possible that If
corn remains higher than wheat-and
there is little improvement in the corn
belt Of actually marketable corn-the
entire surplus problem may be solved
so far as wheat is concerned.
The closing Of q half dozen banks
in Missouri and Kansas during the last
fortnight indicates . continuance Of
the shortage Of money and the din
has notes coming due is in so many in
stances unable to make any payment
on the principal that the bank is con-
stantly drained Of its reserve.
Well managed banks are able 10 care
for their customers and are not worry
ing over the situation-but 1t is Q Diff
flcult art to secure q loan for anything
but the most essential purposes, and
then for the smallest amount that will
serve. Eventually the interior is by
this process going to have its credit
situation brought to safer lines.
Reports from the Southwest are that
the wheat sowing is under way, but
that moisture Is rather scarce, and 1t
Is not the most favorable condition for
q large acreage. However, the sowing
period may, with open weather, last
for six weeks yet, and the total Of new
wheat acreage may surprise the Farm
Board when 1t Is fixed.
