N. R. A. TO GIVE RADIO
ITS SECOND HEARING
Would Determine Fairness of Code
Affecting Various Branches
Of Industry.

The N. r. A. Blue Eagle will swoop
down on the broadcasting industry
once again this month. A second for
NAL hearing before the N. r. A. to
determine whether the labor pro-
visions of the code for the broad
casting industry work any undue
hardships" upon engineers. operators
and other technical employees will be
held June 20 in Washington before
Deputy Administrator William p.
Farnsworth.
Unlike most other industries, radio
was permitted in its code approved
last November to work its technical
employees for 48 hours per week due
to the peculiar conditions existing in
radio, and also because of the paucity
OF trained operators who control the
operations of stations. In including
this proviso in the code, however,
II. r. A. also demanded that a COM
prehensive survey be made tC ascer-
tain whether broadcast technicians
are being overworked.
This survey was made by the Code
Authority for the broadcasting in
dustry, which sent detailed question:
naires to the some 900 stations in the
country. Briefly, this survey showed
that since the code became effective,
employment Of broadcast technicians
has increased IL per cent; weekly
hours of labor for these employees have
been reduced 9.8 per cent. and weekly
pay rolls have increased 21.1 per cent.
1t held that any reduction in hours,
or any increase in the wages paid
will oppress and eliminate small radio
broadcasting enterprises and promote
monopolies."

TALKING RADIO BEAM
COLLISION SAFEGUARD
European Device Would Prevent
Accidents Like Sinking Of
Lightship Nantucket.

The recent sinking Of the Govern
ment lightship Nantucket by the
steamship olympic in fog. allegedly
due to radio beacon operation which
guided the big vessel directly into the
collision, has prompted DR.. o. H.
Caldwell. former Federal radio COM
missioner, to call attention to the new
radio beacon now in use in European
waters which enables an ocean liner
approaching a lightship to get her
distance from that lightship at regu-
lar intervals. The European device is
a talking radio beam. which also iden-
titles the sending station by giving its
name and location.
The talking beam at fixed intervals,
corresponding to the time of travel of
an underwater sound signal, literally
counts of" the miles. The big liner
Is not only guided but hears a recorded
voice on the radio beam intoning
something like this: "Fishgate Light
ship, North Sea. One mile Two miles
Three miles. etc" If at the moment
the radio voice is saying lone mile"
the mariner also hears the lightship's
underwater sound signal. he knows
he is one mile away from the light
ship and can adjust his course &C
cordingly.
Small craft as well as big ships can
get their bearings and directions from
such a small automatic broadcasting
station, according to DR.. Caldwell. He
points out that ionized or electrically
discharged clouds sometimes bend the
electromagnetic lines of force of a
radio wave, thus causing radio-beacon
signals to appear to come from other
than their true directions.

Gently submitted two exhaustive studies

regulation to the President. and he re-
Gently submitted two exhaustive studies
to the Senate dealing chiefly with the
Jurisdiction Complete.
The jurisdiction of the new commits
sion is virtually complete over radio,
but it must divide its authority with
the State utilities commissions when
it comes to telephones and telegraphs.
The rights of the State bodies are jeal-
ously guarded, yet it is inevitable that,
as in the case of the railroads. con-
siderable overlapping of authority and
perhaps much oisputa ton will occur.
The telephone companies alone claim
that more than 95 per CENT of their
traffic is intrastate in character and
hence amenable primarily to State
jurisdictions.
The new law specifically asserts that
nothing in it shall be construed to
impair or diminish the powers of The
State commissions. On the other hand,
many see in the new act another evi-
dence of the growing Capitalization of
government in Washington.
With respect TO radio, number of
new provisions are written into the
law, more or less broadening the ex-
elusive authority Of Washington over
radio which is regarded as being pure
ly interstate In character. The COM
mission Is given control over stock
transfers; it is permitted to authorize
more 100-watt stations without regard
to State quotas If the need is held to
exist; broadcast lotteries or schemes of
chance are prohibited; broadcasts from
foreign countries originating in studios
in this country, such as from Mexico,
are prohibited, unless with the COM
missions consent; the Federal district
courts can enforce orders of the COM
mission. etc.
For the most part, the new COM
mission will be devoted to investiga-
tions until February l, 1885. for the
law directs it to report then to Con-
gress what additional powers 1t needs.
So far as the telephones and tele-
graphs are concerned, the commission
will start from scratch, inasmuch as
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
crowded with other duties, has practi-
cally never exercised its former regu-
latory powers. In radio the commits
sion will simply carry forward its pres
ent work, somewhat reorganized, of
course, but Congress has also asked it
to report next year on the feasibility
of proposals, so far defeated in Con-
gress. to allocate fixed percentage of
the broadcasting waves to non-prof1t
institutions, like religious and educa-
tional organizations.

derstanding between clinics and in

Another device is for the COM
panies to favor certain "honest"
clinics. In return for cheap treat
ment they send a large number of
patients. Clinics often express their
gratitude to insurance companies
by ties, flying against the injured
worker on the side of the company,
when the Industrial Board judges
awards for injuries. In this way
antagonism between big and little
capitalists is turned into an alli-
