FURS = FURS FURS

Letter received by Thad Windsor
from an old fur house with which he
has been dealing for years:
why not go after the tanning
business right while furs are low in
price and lots of people are having
their skins tanned and made up
rather than sell them. Chokers are
going to be popular again. Interest
your friends and customers in hav-
ing chokers made while they can
get raw skins. They can save 1919
to 500. This is going to be a good
season, too, for custom made fur
coats. Muskrats are cheap and a
person can get fine coat for about
$125.00, including cost of raw skins
and making, complete and we guar
antee fit to be satisfactory and any
style the customer may select. Also
calf, colt, goat and other skins for
rugs, etc"
Get busy and see Thad Windsor at
New Hotel Windsor, Milford, Del.

LONG FIGHT |SSEEN
IN Modification
AppeaI From Commissions
Ruling on Monopoly May
!. Stand Many Months.

Months and possibly years Of htiga-
ton now face the Radio Corporation. Of
America In the delicate situation In
volving possible cancellation Of more
than 1,400 radio licenses held BY It's
operating subsidiaries.
II appeared less than three weeks ago
that this case, considered the most I'M
portant from the standpoint Of pos
Gble consequences ever to develop In
radios short history, had been closed.
On June ~ the Radio Commission,
after weeks Of deliberation, gave the
Z. @. A. o clean bill Of health, holding
that section IS Of the radio act cover
ing anti-monopoly violations did not re-
Qllre 1t to cancel licenses OF these COM
panies, representing one-fourth Of all
outstanding tn this country. It was q
victory for the r. G. A. and the litiga-
ton before the commission ended.
Reopened On Appeal.
The case, however, on Tuesday was
carried into the courts by the Milwau-
kee journal, operating Station WTMJ,
reopening the whole controversy. There
u possibility that the Court Of APP
peals, after 1t reconvenes next Fan. will
throw out the case on technical
seems q certainty that the issue will
eventually get to the Supreme Court
Of the United States for final adjudica-
ton. The road to the Nations highest
tribunal, legal experts state, will take
ct least q year. and perhaps two or
three, to traverse.
Involved in the case are millions Of
dollars invested In broadcastins,
television research and other radio
operations. Il represents the activities
Of the National Broedcasting Co., RCA
Communications, Inc; Radiomarine
Corporation Of America and RCA-Victor
Co., all wholly owned subsidiaries Of
the r. c. A.
While the commissions decision Of
last month abSolving the r. G. A. Of
prise, the action Of the Milwaukee
Journal In appealing from this decbion
came as an even greater jolt. WTMJ
Is an applicant for the s70-kilocycle
channel held by WENR and WIS, both
In Chicago, the former station being
operated by N. B. c.. while WIS IS
indirectly afaliated with 1t. It opposed
the renewal Of r. 9. A. licenses at the
hearings held before the commission,
the commission to refuse renewal.
Then, virtually at the last minute allow
