Johnson SEES NRA
SUSTAINED in COURT
Continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
The statement was applauded
bv the lawyers.
Johnson cagily circumvented
all cleverly-worded attempts of
his listeners to draw him out on
his Long-Coughlin views.
IT would rather wait and hear
what Huey and his little play
mate have to say before making
any statement" the general said,
thus adhering to the intention
he voiced on arrival in the after
noon.
Asked what would be the eff
feet if the supreme court held
the NRA unconstitutional, he
said he couldn't see the court
ruling against it in its entirety,
but it probably will say that GER
tain features of it are uncon-
stitutional."
In answer to another question,
Johnson said he did not believe
it true that NRA had "crushed
the little fellow"
Small operatives were not op-
pressed, he said, citing the rub
Der tire, bituminous coal, lumber
and other industries to illustrate
his views.
Regarding employers who com
planned that they were unable &c
pay code wages, he said NC
business has any right to exist II
it can't paw decent wages.
Johnson thanked other speak
ers for the "many nice things

his plans for listening-in to a.
much of Senator Longs speech
as he could before entralnrns

keeper of the Blue Eagle an

Televisiion Out"

The question of television'S possible
advent disposed of for another year,
the networks aren't making any pro-
gram plans along that line either for
the immediate or the distant future.
For while there was quite furry
around that maybe America, was
looking into the first beginnings of
radio sight. All because Of the Eng
lish plans of conducting broadcast
experiments of television on a def
nitely active basis.
Any arrangements that have been
made for future programming and the
like concern themselves entirely with
the regular broadcasts without sight.
In fact, the preparations for the
Summer already are beginning to in
dtcate there will be a greater number
than ever of special event transmits
sions such as sporting events, overseas
pickups and attempts at hitting new
air "firsts" with the microphone.

radio broadcasting by reshap-
L ing the Federal Communica-
tions Commission, the Roose-
welt administration is significantly
maintaining a hands-off policy with
regard to what is said about it over
the radio wave lengths. Even its
harsheSt critc-Senator Huey P. Long
has had no cause to complain so
far that the freedom or frequency of
his broadcast utterances have in any
way been restrained.
Since Congress convened no Sena-
tor, Representative or cabinet officer
has been heard as often on the radio
as Senator Long. Indeed, President
Roosevelt himself has not been heard
in his famous ''flreSide chats" since
last September, and the few talks he
has made on the radio since then have
been on such subjects as his message
to Congress and his birthday and Boy
Scout greetings.
At present Senator Long is prepar-
ing to go on the air once again for
his sixth network speech since Con-
gress first met in early January. He
will be heard Sunday night, March 81.
from IL to 1880 o'clock over the
Columbia Broadcasting System.
Even before the Kingfish's next
speech the wave lengths will also be
cleared for Gen. Hugh S. johnson for
his reply to the Long -Coughlin ad-
dresses. This speech will be heard
over q National Broadcasting Co.
blue network Saturday, March 80, at
1890 to IL pm, and the former
N. r. A. chieftain says he hopes will
definitely conclude this controversy"
AS for Father Coughlin, he Of course
commands an independent network
of his own for one hour every Sunday
for which his organization
pays and during which he can say
he pleases.
President Roosevelt's recent selec-
ton Of former Representative Aiming
S. Pran of New York to head the
Federal Communications Commission,
which regulates broadcasting along
with the interstate telephone and
telegraphs. has nothing whatever to
do with the Johnson-Long -Coughlin
debate or with anything else that
might be uttered over the radio. This
can be stated with absolute certainty.
Rather it was q move to enforce the
rules and regulations Of the
F. C. C. more stringently than the
Did Federal Radio Commission. always
oeset with political pressure, ever
iared tn enforce them
Such enforcement does not mean
curbs upon freedom of expression over
the radio, for the commission is for

The broadcasters them
selves must do the censoring-though
they seldom look at political manu-
scripts beforehand-or else suffer the
penalties of joint liability for libel and
slander under the court precedents
thus far laid down.
The case Of Senator Long is seen
as a pointed example of freedom
of radio in the United States. Some
believe it is an example Of too much
freedom, yet the lack Of restraints
upon him appears to prove that the
concept of freedom of
speech is to be maintained. In per-
haps no other country in the world
