NEW TAX PLAN
FOR RADIO
STATIONS

Washington radio stations would
pay more than $21, 200 a year in a
special tax recommended by Fed
eral Communications Commission
er George Henry Payne.
Commissioner Payne today sent
draft of his proposed legislation
to Representative John j. Boylan
CD of New York for study.
The special tax, Commissioner
Payne pointed out, would help pay
the cost of regulation Of radio,
which is now done at Government
cost.
DR.. Abraham Miller, secretary
to Commissioner Payne, estimated
that the cost to local station in
event the bill should be passed as
drafted, would be: WJSV, $40, 600:
WRC, $3.50; WMAI, 1915, and
VOL, $500. The latter station,
however, now has on file an appli-
cation to increase its power to
1000 watts, and this would raise
the tax to $1,000.
Taxed on Power
Under Commissioner Payne's
plan, the stations would be taxed
according to their power, with a
schedule Of 81 per watt for sta
lions up to 1000 watts; So per
watt for stations from 1000 to
10000 watts, and So per watt for
stations in excess Of 10000 watts.
WJSV operates on 10000 watts
and Is the most powerful station
here. WRC operates. on 1000 watts
in daytime and 500 at night,
WMAL, 500 in day and $50 at
night, and VOL on 100 watts.
Commissioner Payne estimates
that with the broadcast stations
now licensed, the Government
would collect $6.946,395 a year
with the special tax.
Huge Profit Shown
Commissioner Payne pointed
out that the investment of the
broadcaSting business is only
about 100000 and that last
year the gross revenue exceeded
SLOT 100000, with the possibility
this year it might reach as high
as $130,0O0,0O0.
Telegraph companies were given
concessions by the Government,
Commissioner Payne pointed out,
and in return were given lower
rates, paying only 40 per cent of
the normal rates on messages
sent.
On the other hand, the Commits
Sioner pointed out, the radio sta
lions have been given concessions
with no return to the Government.
The special tax proposed, he
said, represents less than 6 per
cent Of the revenue Of the indus.

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE,
Va, April Harrington County's
new budget, bearing an increase
of 65,989.39 over the present
years expenditure of 81 ,061, 1862
was adopted by the County Board
today without debate on a single
item.
1t is based on the present tax
rate Of $2.70 per 500, assessed

The new budget increases the
public school fund by $18,437 for
teachers pay raises and for en-
ployment of additional teachers
for new schools being built, al
locates $3.50 to volunteer fire
companies for Service" and pro-
vides an extra $4,000 to the po-
lice department fund for salary
raises and employment of two adj
ditional officers.
1t failed to meet citizens re-
quests for paid drivers for county
fire apparatus, for employment of
five additional policemen, for
funds for construction of an arm
DRY and for public parks.
On recommendation of County
Manager Frank c. Hanrahan, the
sum of $4,000 is included to pay
the costs Of survey to determine
the feasibility of Arlington county
building and operating a munich
pal electricity power plant and
distribution system to give coun-
try residents a cheaper rate.
A 100000 increase in tax rev.
enue and careful pruning of gen.
eral expenses permits continuance
of the present tax rating. The
extra tax revenue will come from
a 100000 assessment increase,
resulting equally from recent re-
assessment of property and from
building roads.

The Low Down From
Hickory Grove

Bein' some kind or other of an
agitator, sure must be a miserable
way to live and put in your time.
And the ones l have seen, they are
mostly all alike, and always vexed
and more or less mad, and act like
they had been eating something
that kinda soured on their stomach.
And | guess it is normal for EN-
to be that way, just like it is nor
NAL at certain times of the year
for the hydrophobia skunks down
in Arizona, to be made:
And they will tell you, down in
that country, that the season for
the skunks be:n' mad, is the year
around.
But for you folks who have not
been lucky enough to have been
in Arizona, and hear some of the
big stuff they tell down there, l
viii say that this hydrophobia busi-
ness, it maybe was started by some
duck who had been drinkin' from
the Hassayampa River. And the
story about the Hassayampa is,
that whoever drinks there, he never
again tells the truth.
But to get back to the agitators
who are all the time frothin' at the
mouth, | reckon Arizona is maybe
not so bad off.
