ing the last three years. soon will re-
sound again with broadcasting ac-
tivity.
The original studios of the National
Broad ing Co. at TIL Fifth avenue,
New York, where network broadcast
ing was Graded, have been taken over
by the World Broadcasting System,
largest CT the electrical transcription
companies, for occupancy in October.
Three years ago N. B. C. vacated the
building when it moved to magnifi-
It new quarters built for it in Radio
City. Except for a three-month period,
when the Inflated American Broad
casting System occupied the studios
early tn year, the old ". B. c. quar-
ters have been vacant.
The building was occupied by N.
B. C. shortly after 1t was organized
as the worlds first network, in 1926.
1t soon outgrew the quarters. how
ever. and occupied about dozen times
the space when Radio City was COM
pleted, in 1882.
With World Broadcasting System
occupying the building, which will
bear that name. the activity will oe
very --luch like that Of the studios of
network. Famous artists will troop
into the studios for rehearsals and
performances. They will perform be-
fore microphoneS, as in the case OF
''lve shows" The only difference will
be that instead of their performances
going out over vast network of tele-
phone lines to the affiliated stations
of the networks for direct broad
casting, they will be recorded on
transcriptions. then duplicated and
shipped to stations throughout the
country and broadcast by the "de-
layed" or transcription method.
T TNHERALDED and largely unno-
- ticed, the newest of the radio net
works-Mutual Broadcasting System
spanned the country for brief inter-
val this month in a move that may
be the forerunner Of its expansion into
Nationwide system.
The network. now a regular three
station high-power system compris-
WOR, New York, and WGN, Chicago,
each with $4,000 watts, was linked
with KNX, Los Angeles. also a $4,000
waiter, August %. At that time KNX
fed to the network the memorial serv-
ices for Will Rogers. Also tied into
the network for this program we're
WXYz. Detroit, the 12-station Yankee
network in New England and the
widespread Canadian Broadcasting
Commission network.
Organized less than a year ago. Mu-
tual has gone ahead rapidly. There
have been negotiations for additional
outlets and these have included con-
versations with KNX. Should these
materialize, then intermediate points,
such as st. Louis. Cleveland and Den
yer, may be added, along with key
cities in the East. including Boston
and Washington.

Dog in Radio CITY.

A N EXCEPTION to Radio City rules
was made recently when a Ger

run Of the place.
He was guiding Miss Ethel Stevens

She had been given permission to

help of her dog and her own ears
she met such passers-by in the halls
as Maj. Bowes and Ben Bernie.

Pressed for a reason, these program

will attract listeners to a new pro-

Jury Action.

Two Of seven men linked by police
to numerous hold-ups of liquor and

during recent months we're held for
action of the grand jury at 100000
bond each by Judge Ralph Given in
Police Court today, while three of
the others were held under $4,000
bond each.
Those receiving the heaviest bonds
were John M. Williams and George

we're Joseph Markovich, George I.
Pulley and Joseph H. Givham.
Two women were taken during the
roundup of the gang, arrested in
raids on two roonling houses, but are
not accused of participating in the
robberies. The raids followed informa-
ton gained by Lieut.. Oscar j. Let

All Of the men, police said. were
identified as having participated in
numerous hold-ups, but those ar
raigned today were only charged In

Schwartz found what he thought
were seven wolf cubs In woods den
and carried them home. When four
of the cubs died he applied to the
county clerk for bounties of SO each.
Game Warden Dan Trainor dis
covered they were fox pelts. Because
the fox season closed March !, pos

Schwark was released with q warn

BORAH DEN0UNCES|
LEAGUE0F NATIONS
Terms Body "SpineIess
Tool of a Few Euro
pean Nations"
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Borah, Republican, Of
Idaho, irreconcilable foe of the League
of Nations since its inception, yester-
day took the floor in the Senate to
denounce the League as the spine
less tool Of a few European nations"
and introduced bill designed to keep
American money from financing Eu-
ropean wars.
Borah, senior Republican member
of the Foreign Relations Committee,
declared this institution should no
longer pretend to be an Independent
body seeking by independent methods
to advance the cause of peace.
Nothing in the history OF this in
stitution better illustrates that it Is
not an independent body for peace,
but q spineless tool in the hands OF
a few nations to do what those ma
tons elect"
Lewis Hits Defaulters.
Borah's attack echoed through the
chamber at the conclusion Of a speech
by Senator Lewis of Illinois, Demo-
cratic whip, criticizing members of
the League for demanding that Ger
many live up to her treaty obligations
while they continue to disregard Job
legations they have contracted with
the United States"

language he employed In O statement
accompanying a bill proposing to shut

President Roosevelt, meanwhile, laid
a restraining hand on the Senate
munitions investigators to avoid EN-
barrassing Great Britain. It was the
second time within a week that the
President had, in effect, tempered the
course Of the committee headed by
Senator Nye, Republican, Of North
Dakota.
Called TO White House.
Acting after Sir Ronald Lindsay,
British Ambassador, had made in
formal representations against the
committees search through the record
Of j. p. Morgan g. Co., the crowns
fiscal agent during the World War,
President Roosevelt called to the
White House three members Of the
committee and Secretary Hull. The
Senators were Nye, Clark, Democrat.
Of Missouri, and Pope, Democrat, of
Idaho.
1t was indicated the President
frankly cautioned the Senators about
making use Of its investigation Of
any wartime correspondence between
the British government and the big
banking house that might cause
embarrassment.
The committee decided to continue
the arrangement already made where
by any questionable" correspondence
will be discussed with the State De-
partment before being employed in
the inquiry.

valued at ss6,1s7,s51 in the tax

valued at ss6,1s7,s51 in the tax
exempt column.
All of these facts, Mr.. Richards ex-
planned, should be considered in
studies of the tax burden of the Dis
trict. Washington. he emphasized. is
in a class by itself when it comes to
tax exemption.
A similar study presented to Con-
gress in 1929 showed the ratio of
tax-exempt property to taxable prop
erty in the National Capital to be
54.O9 per cent. The average for IS
other large cities of the country was
found at that time to be 17.35 per
cent.
The tax-exempt Federal holdings
here then were valued at some $780,
100000. If such sumhad been added
to the assessed valuation, applying the
theory that the United States was
taxed, the District ratio of exempt to
taxable property would have dropped
to 1874 per cent, leaving Washington
still above the average for the other
cities in the study.
Mr.. Richards stressed the point that
more than $700, 000. 900 Of property is
exempt from taxation, with the value
of Federal holdings amounting to about
half the value of the taxed property
and about 30 per cent of the entire
real estate wealth of the District.
It is evident that the District resi-
dents alone could not carry the burden
If they were to pay all the District
costs, in the face of the enormous tax
exemption, he stated in a separate
memorandum to the city heads.
1.-THE District of Columbia is not a
manufacturing city and probably
should not become such, for the &C.
Invites of the Government supply the
principal sources of revenue. and make
unnecessary large mercantile establish
ments or manufacturing plants.
THE District has no voice In its
municipal affairs except through
methods of petition, and its financial
set-up has no counterpart in any other
city.
I'VE have a municipality national in
character and national in control.
Every property owner in the District
pays whatever Congress directs, and
every dollar so paid goes into the
Treasury of the United States and can
be removed only by authority of an act
Of Congress"
