Gossip and Gloom
 Are Brothers-in-woe Whatver they say
 Know it's not so. Gossip and Gloom
 On mischief are bent, Their foolish opinions Are not worth a cent. Gossip and Gloom
 Are in a bad way, Pray do not believe
 A word that they say. Gossip and Gloom
 Do things on the sly, They secretly whisper And most often lie. Gossip and Gloom
 Are not good for you, With such busybodies Have nothing to do.

posed what he characterized as EMO
nopoly Of broadcaSting facilities" by
certain interests, while others have not
been accorded the facilities to which he
believes they are entitled.
II have always favored better uses
OF radio than mere commercialism, :
he said. Undoubtedly there is q field
for radio in comnercialism. The human
voice as used daily for business pur-
poses is now, by radio, enlarged for
such use. But the talking Of shop
all OF the time, as everybody knows, Is
not only exceedingly tTnpolite, but to
most people disgusting"
Discussing the right Of free speech, he
said it was his opinion that the law
is clear In constituting radio as q public
utility, open to all parties and creeds
alike and on an equal basis. In this
view he Is opposed by other members OF
the commission, while legislation which
was pending at the last session Of Con-
gress, but which failed of enactment,
would have eliminated entirely the COM
mon carrier theory as applied to broad
casting.
Based on Utility Concept.
'The Federal radio law" declared
Judge Robinson, lis based on the pub
lic-utility concept. Before committees
of Congress and in public addresses
have held the view that 1t is q public
utility, for transmission as well as re-
ception, always referring to such
vision Of it by President Hoover in 1925,
when he was Secretary Of Commerce.
ITO my mind, the radio Is the voice
Of the public, and It ought to be used
In an educational and uplifting way
as well as In commercial use, just as the
natural voice is used for various pur-
poses.''

ROBINSON ASSAILS
RADIO SHOP TALK
Terms Excessive Advertising
Disputing as Well
as ImpoIite.
BY ROBERT MACK.

Radio advertisers who talk shop
excessively over the air not only are
exceedingly impolite, but to most peo-
pie disgusting"
So states Federal Radio Commits
sioner Ira e. Robinson in his latest
broadside against what he terms the
overdose" Of commercialism in broad
casting. At the same time he reargued
his stand that broadcasting is q public
utility, like the railroads, and that all
stations are open to free speech.
Clippings Show Views.
Judge Robinson, whose public state
ments on radio are few and far be-
tween, made these observations In an
informal memorandum to fellow men,
beers of the commission. The memo
randum was appended to q sheaf of
editorials, clipped from newspapers
throughout the country, dealing with
free speech on the air and radio ad-
vertising.
These editorial clippings show that
the public Is at last understanding the
right use and the abuses of radio-that
radio is public utility, open to free
speech-belongS to all and not to the
few" That was the note, written in
longhand by the judge for the benefit
Of his colleagues.
Asked to elaborate on this terse state
ment, he said the Showdown" stage
Is being reached in radio, and the pub
lie now is rebelling against overcom-
liberalization of programs. He also ap
