Marian Attack
Prompts Probe Of
Radio Policies
Senator White Proposes
Congressional Inquiry

3y the Associated Press.

Dy the Associated Press.
A sweeping congressional investi'
cation of radio broadcasting policie!
was proposed today by Senator
White, Republican, of Maine, who
said he had received indications Of
Democratic support.
No attempt will be made, he said
10 inquire into internal dissensior
within the Federal Communications
Commission or to inquire into that
body's specific acts.
IT am not Interested" Senator
White said, lin exposing any dirty
linen, if there is dirty linen. What
I have in mind is an objective study
OF radio problems. the goal of which
would be congressional enactment
of general policy to be followed
by the commission"
Problems Involved.
He said he would ask for an in
quiry into the following problems:
l. Chain ownership and control
of individual broadcasting stations
through affiliations.
9 Newspaper interest in and con-
troll of radio stations.
3. The granting of superpoWer
permits.
4. International broadcasting by
Government and private agencies.
S. Patent control and possibility
of the growth of monopolistic prac-
tees through exclusive patent con-
tracts.
6. The degree of control and re-
sponsibility of radio stations for
libel that goes out in their pro-
grams.
Senator White, a delegate to the
International Communications Con-
ference last winter in Cairo, Egypt,
said he believed study also should
be made of international point-to-
point communication, as distin-
guished from general broadcasting
and foreign communications systems
as whole.
Support Is Seen.
Senator White said he believed
Democratic leaders in the Senate
would be more willing to support the
inquiry request when they under
stood that it was to be purely OBJ
jective. A resolution he introduced
last session calling for an investi-
cation of the Communications Com
mission was pigeonholed.
Meanwhile, Senator Herring, DEM
ocrat, of Iowa, said a bill would be
offered to tune up the quality of
bed-t time stories" and improve GER
tain other types of radio broadcasts
by means of a voluntary board of
review.
Chairman McNinch of the Com
munications Commission favors such
q measure, Senator Herring said.
The IoWan said his decision to
push the bill was prompted by the
recent broadcast whichs alarmed
thousands of persons by portraying
a Marian attack" on the earth.
