WJSv FACES LOSS
OF RADIO LICENSE
Ordered to Eliminate Interference
With Nays Experimental
Station by May /.

The Federal Radio Commission today
notified Station WJSV, Alexandria, Va,
that 1t would be denied a license to
operate at its present location unless
interference created with the Navy's
experimental radio station at Bellevue,
D. c., is corrected before May /, when
the present authority expires.
A few days ago the commission au-
thorized Station WJSV, controlled by
the Columbia Broadcasting System, to
experiment with new type of direc-
tional antenna, designed to curtail its
signal in the direction Of the naval
laboratory. Should these experiments,
being conducted after midnight, prove
successful, it is presumed that the sta
ton will be given a regular renewal
of license.
In connection with these experiments
Columbia has detailed group of its
leading engineers to Washington, in
cluding Frank Falknor Of Station
WBBM, Chicago antenna expert.
Several weeks ago the Navy Depart
ment formally complained to the Radio
Commission about the interference al
legedly caused with its operations by
Station WJSV. Hearings were held be-
hind closed doors. The commission's S
decision today was based on the testi-
mony given by the Navy at those closed
hearings.

SUN TO BE COOLER TWO YEARS,
WITH EFFECT ON EARTH LIKELY
Smithsonian Prediction, Based Fluctuations Of
Different Lengths, Studied by DR.. Charles G. Abbot.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A prediction that the sun will be
colder for the next two years, with
the possibility the earth will be affected
in way as yet unknown, was issued
today by the Smithsonian Institution.
For the next "a months, said DR..
Charles G. Abbot, secretary of the in
stitution, the heat that issues from
the sun and makes life possible on
earth will be somewhat below normal.
This does not necessarily mean that the
earth will have two cold years, for
earthly weather is affected by many
influences besides the suns heat. How
ever, 1t Is believed the cold years on
the sun must have some effect on the
earth, though what it will be is un-
predictable.
DR.. Abbot already has had some sue
cess as q predictor of the suns
weather" In 1880 he forecast two
warm years on the sun, which IN gem

eral has been fulfilled. Measurements
have shown that the sun has been CIV
ing out considerably more heat than
normal since then.
The long-range predictions Of warm
and cold periods on the sun are first
steps toward a goal Of accurate long
range weather forecasts for the earth.
They enable scientists to forecast one
important factor in earthly weather,
but ways also must be found to predict
the influence of other factors, such as
winds. clouds. snow. humidity, ocean
currents and temperatures, vegetation,
mountains and deserts
DR.. Abbot's prediction is based on
long study OF periodical rises and falls
in the suns heat. He has found that
there are seven such fluctuations of
different lengths. Seven, 8, IL, 81, rs,
IS and 68 months. In making the two
year prediction he combined the ex,
pected trends Of all these different
periods into one general curve that
showed Q two-year upward trend.

BANK DEPOSITS
WOULD Be INSURED
IN GLASS MEASURE
Revised Bill Calls for Huge
Corporation for Protec-
tion of Funds.
TENTATIVE DRAFT GIVEN
TO subcommittee
Provisions for Branch Institutions
Among Features Of Original
Proposal Retained.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A tentative draft of the revised Glass
bank bill, providing for creation of a
gigantic corporation to insure deposits
Of Federal Reserve member banks, was
distributed today to members of the
Senate Banking Subcommittee In
charge of the bill.
Designed to give 100 per cent insur-
ance on deposits in member banks, the
corporation would be capitalized by q
subscription of $15o,ooo. 900 from the
Treasury and a levy of one-half of one
per cent on the deposits of the banks.
Member banks would be required to
subscribe for stock in the corporation
amounting to one half of one per cent
Of their deposits, but not more than
one half Of this amount during the
first year.
Bill Has New Provisions.
Another meeting Of the subcommittee
probably will be held to act on the
tentative draft before 1t Is submitted
to the full committee.
The revised measure Is based upon
the Glass bank reform bill Of last
session, ana retains provisions OF cnat
measure designed to curb the use of
Federal reserve credit for speculative
purposes.
Several new provisions are in the bill,
however, in addition to the insurance
feature. It would prohibit payment of
interest on demand deposits and pre-
vent interlocking directorates between
banks and industrial corporations.
Members Of the subcommittee have
been informed that about $215, ZOO, 900
was paid out last year as interest on de-
mand deposits. and they pointed out
that elimination of this outlay would
strengthen the banks by that much.
Branch Clause Retained.
Branch bank provisions of the Glass
bill as 1t passed the Senate are retained
in the tentative providing authorization
for national banks to establish branches
In States which permit their State In
stitutionS TO have them.
There Is no provision In the tenta-
tive draft for dtvorcing commercial
banking ana trust company activities,
despite reports that such q move was
favored by the administration. The bill
still retains the clause requiring divorce
ment Of banks and security afnliates,
however. and allows two instead Of five
yearE for this separation.

REVOLT" COST $50
LIVES, SAYS HITLER
Lists 10000 Wounded in
Drive Which Led to His
Rise to Power.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April 7.-Chancellor Adolf
Hitler has placed the price of Germanys
"rebirth" at 800 persons slain, 10000
persons wounded and 100000 driven
from commercial life.
He declared outright to an audience
Of cabinet members, diplomats and
newspaper correspondents last night
that these were the figures on the long,
incipient revolution which led to his rise
to power.
1.-THE German press hitherto marched
behind. but today it marches abreast Of
the times No government can destroy
a press which prints the truth" he de-
clared.
Titles to Be introduced.
The cabinet today considered plan
for installing governors in all German
states, with power to appoint the state
premiers and governors.
Chancellor Hitler would become the
Governor Of Prussia; furthermore, titles
and decorations win be reintroduced.
One more step In the remolding OF
German life is contemplated BY the
National Socialists in proposal to re-
from the system Of jurtsprudence, rele-
eating Roman law to the background.
Plan Is Submitted.
Hans Frank, Bavarian minister OF
justice and Chancellor Hitlers CHIEF
legal adviser, has submitted to the
national department of justice q plan
to reorganize the administration OF
justice "tn the true Germanic spirit. "
Certain basic features Of Roman law
may be retained in drafting the new
code, but the study Of Roman law Will
be optional, not compulsory, for stu
dents preparing for final examinations
for admission to the bar. Courses on
racial lore will be compulsory.
A virtual Na1 dictatorship viii be es-
tablished. in the federation OF German
industries with the election OF a Nazi-
controlled executive board.
Nazi Christians, in the meanwhile.
have acted to wipe out all traces OF
Jewish religion in Christian teachings
and q government culture tax" was
seen today as a further move toward
naturalization of the Protestant Church.
What course the Hitler government
will take in regard to the Catholic
Church may be disclosed after a talk
this week end between the Pope and
Vice Chancellor Franz Won Papen In
Rome. CA Rome Associated Press dis

and Capt. Hermann Goering Of the Hit
Ter cabinet will visit the Pope over the

sent down tomorrow and at least hun
dred day next week until the Wash
ington quota is filled.
Just how much of burden will be
lifted from the local charities remains
a problem. Ostensibly, Mr.. Halbert
said, the forestry recruits might be ex-
pected to return about $4,000 q month
to Washington, or about S per cent OF
the amount expended in relief here.
Many of the men themselves, however,
have not been able to obtain any re-
lief in the past, so that the chief ef-
feet Is expected to be in ameliorating
general conditions.
Meantime the Army post training
has given the United States Forestry
Service two weeks of grace to get ready
for the gigantic job thrown suddenly
on its shoulders. 1t amounts to doing
in a few months work which has been
planned to extend over many years.
