The rush for the newly opened bsoad-
casting channels between $500 and
l,600 kilocycles has begun. Two new
applications were received by the Radio
Commission last week, one from John
v. l.. Hogan, radio engineer and In.
ventor Of New York, and the other from
the Unity School Of Christianity, now
operating station WOO, Kansas City.
The latter applicants present part-tine

ton with the commission, having ap-
pealed to the courts from the commis-
sl0ns decision last Summer ordering 1t

BY its recent edict, the commission
videned the broadcasting band TO EN-
brace the waves between $50 and l,60I

The first application for a place in
this band came even before the commits

paper eager to get a foothold In radio
ana willing to bank on radios future to
the extent of developing an audience at
the shorter end of the widened broad
cast band.
Practically all good radios now on the
market already can tune down to 800
kilocycles, but those who build stations
to use the waves must depend upon the
ultimate replacement Of most sets now
in use by modern sets. They must also
prove to the Radio Commission that
they are technically and financially
capable Of developing good service TO
the public on the newly opened waves.
Three channels. separated by 40 kilo-
cycles rather than by the normal 10
kilocycles, were designated By the COM
mission IN order to develop high quail
ity. wider range reception In the 1900

Custom.Built Radio
Sets in Roosevelt's
2 New LimOusines

President Roosevelt, his family
and their guests listen as they
ride these days.
Ardent radio listeners, as wen
as frequent microphone perform
ers, the presidential family has
acquired two new hmousines
equipped with custom-built auto
mobile radio receivers. Engineers
of the automobile company coll
laborated with the technicians Of
the radio set company In design
ing and installing the radios.
Since these limousiness are
ffer-driven, 1t was neces-
sary that the control panel for
operation of the radios be placed
within easy reach In the passen-
ger compartment. A novel ar
rangement, under which the con-
troll panel Is built into the arm
rest, was designed. The speaker
Is concealed in one of the rear
doors and the set itself Is installed
in a special compartment under
the floor.
Thus, when the presidential
party rides In either Of these au.
tomobiles, 1t can listen to a wide
variety Of programs picked up
from Q number of stations by
these specially designed. highly
sensitive sets.

DRIVE ON "OUTLAW"
STATIONS effective
"Air Pirates" Abdicate After Fed.
eral Campaign Begins.
Many Texas Cases.

| Uncle Sans determined campaign
against outlaw" broadcasting stations
which have operated in defiance of the
radio laws has been highly successful,
| according to the Federal Radio Com
mission. Even more significant than the
successful prosecution of these so-called
"air pirates" is the fact that most of
them have 'abdicated" voluntarily when
| they learned the Federal authorities
were on their trail. A year ago 1t was
estimated that between $50 and 200
unlicensed stations were on the air.
Now the records disclose not more than
score in operation, and criminal suits
are pending against half that number.
The Governments main offensive has
been against unlicensed stations in
Texas. Early this year. when it began
to prosecute in cola boration with the
Department of Justice. some 10 such
stations we're reported on the air. Al
though only 10 have been prosecuted.
latest reports are that only 8 or 10
remain in the State.
Assisting the commission in these
Texas cases has been Maj. A. v. Dali
rymple, former United States director
OF prohibition, who was detailed as a
special assistant to the Attorney General
on radio cases. Mai. Dalrymple left
Washington for Texas this week after
conferring with radio authorities In
| Texas he will conclude his investiga-
ticns of remaining outlaws" prepara-
tory to prosecutions in April. Ben S.
Fisher, assistant general counsel of the
commission in charge Of criminal work,
probably will argue tne Texas cases.
Under the radio law broadcasting Is
recognized as interstate commerce, and
no station may operate without a
license from the Radio Commission, ir-
respective Of the power used. In most
OF the cases tried, the defendants. have
claimed that the Federal Government
has no jurisdiction because the stations
are so low in power as to operate intra-
state only. but the commission invari-
sbly has produced evidence of reception
outside Of the State Engineers hold
that even the lowest powered broadcast
ing station is capable of causing inter-
ference with regularly licensed stations
on the same or adjacent channels be-
yond State borders.
Between July and December 81, the
commission discloSes. Federal Courts
have rendered decisions in Is cases
against unlicensed stations In IA OF
the cases convictions were procured
Sentences were suspended, however. in
virtually every case and fines substi-
tuted.

Ship Disaster Awakened !
World to Power of Radio
Safeguarding Life at Sea Held First Mission
of Observation-Disclosures Station
Makes Tests.

| It is the WLW's intention, once the
tests are completed and adequate
engineering data is collected, to petition
the commission for authority to use Its
super power during regular program
hours Under the experimental grant
the tests may be conducted only during
early morning hours, so that interfer-
ence will not be caused with regularly
licensed stations, with the added pro-
viso that no commercial programs be
broadcast.
Policy Question.
When the request for regular author
ity to use 100000 watts power is filed
the commission will be faced Squarely
with a policy question Of transcendent
Importance both to the listening public
and the radio industry. Unquestionably
there will be opposition in Congress
from certain legislators who heretofore
have opposed super power on the pri-
mary ground that radio stations should
serve homogeneous local audiences
rather than "Nation-wide'' audiences.
OF basic Importance, however, will be
the technical determination whether IT
is lin the public interest" to revamp
the broadcasting structure to accommo-
date such giant stations.
WLW is ideally suited for the super
power tests. It is relatively near the
center of population of the country as
well as the geographical center. Its
clear channel of 700 kilocycles, upon
which it Is transmitting the early
morning programs, Is regarded as one
of the best waves IN the entire broad
cast band from the standpoint Of signal
strength propagation.
Reports on the preliminary tests. ac-
cording to the stations officials. have
been received from all over the country
as we'll as from many foreign listeners.
All were said to be to the effect that
the reception and quality excelled any
thing ever heard before from distant
stations.

The ships are on a goodwill tour

bad today that there was posi-
bility the ships might move on in
