FOR PASSAGE
OF RADIO BILL
important Amendments to
Present Laws Are Made
by Measure.
BY RAY TUCKER
Times stan Writer

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA plan
to obtain immediate action on his
bill containing important amend
ments to the federal radio law was
framed today by Senator Clarence
G. Dill Dem, Wash.) after the
conference with senate leaders.
The measure already has passed
the house, and been reported IA
yorably by the senate . commerce
committee.
II 1t becomes law soon, it will
mean there can be more extensive
public discussion Of such questions
as ratification OF the lame duck
amendment, and a possible repeal
proposal, during the period when
most Legislatures will be in session.
The bill provides that equal time
must be given by radio stations to
opponents and proponents of ref
erenda, as must now be- given to
rival candidates for Office.
Bar Foreign Ownership
An amendment which will have
opposition from navy Spokesman
permits 20 per cent of the directors
Of a radio corporation to be aliens,
whereas the present law bars such
representation. Foreign ownership
of the International Telephone and
Telegraph Company and other
concerns necessitated this change,
in the committees opinion.
In answering the navy's objec-
tons, Dill points out the President
has authority to seize all radio sta
tons in time of war. But naval Of
flcers claim foreign representation
on directorates in peace time may
place secret codes in jeopardy.
Bar Lottery Advertising
The advertising Of lotteries or
gifts over the radio is barred under
the new provisions. This may close
the air to certain individuals and
concerns, including some politicians
and political organizations.
Under another section, ]. H.

full Mexico station, and then trans
hitting them back to this country.
Barred from use of his former
station in Kansas by the radio COM
mission, Brinkley erected a $4,000
watt station across the border. The
proposed amendment, however,
gives control over all programs orig
mating in a studio in this country.
!. License Charge on Stations
A companion measure, introduced
by Dill, imposes a license charge on
all radio stations. 1t is expected
to raise about $400,000 or half the
commissions operating costs.
Still another section requires COM
mission members to sit in on all
hearings instead of turning them
over to examiners. Many impor-
tant cases involving freedom of
speech, Dill points out, have been
disposed of by subordinates with
out the interested parties getting
chance to present their side to the
commission.

AfcReynolds saw the animal

TNDELIBLY traced in the story
Il of the rising Roosevelts is a
little island, two miles by ten, in
the Bay Of Fundy near PASSPORT,
Me.
1t is Campobello, New Bruns-
wick, and there, in the 1905,
went the late James Roosevelt to
find seclusion and intimacy with
the sea.
There were only few cottages
and one summer hotel on the
wind-swept island in those days.
James Roosevelt bought a house
atop hill that dipped steeply to
the water an eighth of mile
away.
1t was there that Franklin
Roosevelt developed his great love
for the sea and transmitted it to
his five children.
AS a boy, the President-elect
learned to handle a sailboat like
a down-east fisherman in the
choppy waters about Campobello.
1t was there that he acquired
his early desire to attend Anna
polls, an ambition to sail and en-
.couragement of a hobby in col
Letting naval prints.
Franklin Roosevelt was an eX-
pert navigator at Is, and in his
early 20's, after he had begun the
practice of law in New York, he
sometimes cruised up to Campo
bello over a long weekend.
His mother still recalls how he
would leave town on a Thursday
at about 4 o'clock, wiring ahead
that he would arrive Saturday at
$50.
And. she contends that, despite
shifting winds and uncertain cur
rents along the Maine coast, he
never was more than a half hour
early or late!
THOSE were some of the tradi-
l. lions the younger Roosevelts
found themselves facing when they
began to accompany their parents
to the island retreat during the
hottest months of the summers.
But possibly because none Of the
boys showed quite the aptitude
that their father had, he did not
provide a separate boat for them
for several seasons.
"You can't sail a boat" he said,
until you know everything about
boats, and can do everything there
is to be done about a boat"
So the youngsters did their sail
ing on the family yacht, and
worked like common seamen at
the reefing and hosting of sails,
ing of decks.
of decks.
Over and over again they were
instructed in the ways of the tides
and treacherous currents. And to
acquaint them with their nautical
fundamentals, the father made
model sailhoats for them.
These we're really finished prod
uctS OF the model makers art,
and they we're large enough for
exciting regattes in which the
whole family took part.
"All the models were made
along different lines" Elliott re-
called. And each of us had one
that could make a good showing
in varying kinds of weather.
"There was such keen rivalry
among us that when one boat
lost consistently father always
made another to replace it, and
built it in the same design as the
most frequent winner"
n
DURING the eight years that
II Roosevelt was assistant sec
rotary of the navy he was unable
to spend the usual two whole
months with his family in New
Brunswick.

You read in the papers over here
that our congress is having diff

are apt to get the impression of
lack of will on the part of either
congress or the country, whereas
the very oppoiset is the case.
The country has determined that
the government shall set its own

credit be protected at all costs. The
