INCREASE IN POWER
FOR WRTD STUDIED
Contract With N. B. C. Placed in
Record Over Objections of
Richmond Station.
BY the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
A Communications Commission ex-
amlner took under consideration an
application of Station WRTD, Rich
mond, Va, for increase in power from
100 watts to one kilowatt.
Shortly before conclusion of hearings
on the application, the examiner, over
objection of the applicant, sustained
request Of the attorney for Station
WMBG, Richmond, intervenor in the
case, to incorporate in the record the
contract between the applicant and
the National Broadcasting Co.
The examiner held that knowledge
of what was contained in The con-
tract was essential to the commission.
The lntervenors asked inclusion of
the contract to determine for the in
formation of the commission to what
extent the stations time was optioned
to the network, and whether the time
thus optioned would prevent per-
formance of planned local service.
The intervenors earlier in the hear
ing charged that the station, in it's
original application for an operating
permit, had given no indication of
intent to join network, but had based
its application primarily on the need
in Richmond for a local service sta
ton. They said after the permit was
granted the station began operating
with network connection.

Territory Places Border as
It Was in 1918,

Recent occupation of Czechoslo-
vakian territory by the Poles merely
put the boundary back as it was in
1918, according to DR.. Oscar Halecki
Polish educator, who lectured yester-
day at the United States Office of
Education.
DR.. Halecki, member of the
League of Nations staff for three
years, declared the survival of CZecho-
slovakia as a nation is entirely pos
sible, but that the CZechs, "unfor-
tunately for all concerned" were
somewhat too late" in their conces-
sions to minorities within their boun-
darieS.
The visitor said the Poles reoccupied
Teschen because it had been seized by
the Czechs while Poland was occu-
pied with the Bolsheviks in 1920 and
could not hold the territory. He
added he doubted if the Polish claim
would have been pushed had the Poles

ileges earlier.
The speaker said the diSmembered
country can survive if it gets economic
assistance during the adjustment
period and if international guarantees
of the new boundaries hold.
L know Poland desires only peace
full relations with Czechoslovakia." he
said. We are of common Slavic
origin and have long had much in
common"
DR.. Halecki, professor of history
at the University of Warsaw, will ad-
dress the Polish Club at pm. to-
morrow in Wardman Park Hotel
before going to Vassar College for
another lecture Monday He was en-
tertained yesterday at luncheon at
