RADIO GIRDING
.FORF|GHT ON
TAXATION

NEW YORK, April II dN.S).
Broadcasting is getting prime
attention from Representatives
and legislators, who are seeking
new sources of revenue, and in
dications are multiplying that the
heavy hand Of the tax-gatherer
is to be laid at last on the IN
dustry, which has escaped spe-
cial ,levies until now.
A bill presented by Senator
Clarence c. Dill CD, Washing
ton, in the last session Of Con-
gress, providing for payment OF
graduated fees for all radio L.
censes issued by the Government,
is to be reintroduced in this ses-
sion, in the House, as part OF
the general revenue program.
The scale Of fees provided for
goes as high as $4,000 a year,
for the most powerful stations,
such as WEAF, WLW. ..WCCO and
WFAA.
Senator Dill, chairman Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
which has jurisdiction over radio
legislation in the Senate, and
foremost authority on radio in
Congress, may be in a position
to maneuver the measure into
q law.
Meanwhile, the New York State
legislature is considering the i'm
position of q 5 per cent tax on
all revenues of stations operat-
ing studios within the State, and
other legislatures, taking their
cue from the Empire State Ut
broadcasting, are giving their
own stations a study as a source
of revenue,

DUE
At OPENINGS

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE
wet question, which Col. Jake
Rupert thought had been set
tied when his beer trucks started
rolling kegs Of 3.2 out Of the
brewery last Friday, bobbed up
again today to haunt the colonel
and his champion New York
Yankees.
Everything had been set for a
gala American League opening
between the Yanks and the Bos-
ton Red Sox at Yankee Stadium
tomorrow, and now comes the
weather man with a dour predic-
ton Of showers and cooler"
Opening day at the stadium al
ways draws a banner crowd and
this year the advance sale was
ahead Of last years. If old man
river relents and the weather is
fair, a flock of flags will be
raised including the American
League pennant and the world
series pennant. Colonel Rupert
will present world series souvenirs
to his players and Mayor O'Brien
will throw out the first ball.
Lefty Gomez and Bill Dickey
will be the New York battery.
CHICAGO, April 11.-Advance
sales today indicated that a sell
out crowd will be on hand at
Wrigley Field tomorrow to see the
Cubs and the st. Louis Cardinals
open the 1888 championship
season.
And the weather man promised
that fair skies will replace the re-
cent rain clouds. It was also an
nounced that the injured Babe
Herman would be in right field.
Lon Warneke, leading National
League pitcher last year, has been
named by Manager Charley Grimm
to hurl the opening game for the
Cubs, with Gabby Hartnett doing
the receiving.
Dizzy Dean will oppose War
neke, from all indications. Like
Warneke, Dean was held out OF
the lineup in the city series at st.
Louis in order that he might have
a restup before the seasons in
augural.
The ticket sale for the opener
continued brisk, and Cubs Off
cials predicted a near sellout.
Ed Durham, the former Red
Sox pitcher, will hurl the sea-
sons opener for the Chicago
White Sox tomorrow.
This was aScertained today
from Manager Lew Fonseca as
the club departed for the Browns
stronghold after a brushing up
drill.

will hurl for the PhillieS against
the Brooklyn Dodgers here to-
