ORDERS new STUDY
IN AIR STATION BAN
Court Tells F. C. C. to Take Up
Again Application for
Pottsville Outlet.

The United States Court of Appeals
today ordered the Federal Communi-
cations Commission to reconsider its
denial of an application by the Potts
vile Broadcasting Co., a corporation
controlled by Charles D. Drayton,
Washington. lawyer, for a permit to
construct a broadcasting station at
Pottsville, Pa.
The refusal of the commission to
grant the permit was based on two
points: First, Mr.. Draytons testi-
mony that subscriptions for stock in
the corporation were contingent on
approval of the Pennsylvania Securi-
ties Commission; second, that Mr..
Drayton, who has subscribed to 1850
of the corporations 2,625 shares is
not resident of Pottsvilie and is not
acquainted with the needs Of the
area
Considering the first question, the
court said both Mr.. Drayton and the
F. c. c. were mistaken in their view
that approval of the Pennsylvania
Securities Commission for issuance of
the stock was required, the corpora
ton being chartered in Maryland.
As to the second question, the court
said the F. c. C. had not, in the past,
laid down a fixed policy of refusing
construction permits to non-residents
1t instructed the F. c. C. to reconsider
the case, saying, however, that if the
communications body should desire to
establish such policy and refuse
permit on that ground, it might do so.
The Pottsville company was repre-
sented by Mr.. Drayton and Eliot c.

Of temporizing with Premier Musso-

Viscount Halifax and Bonnet
drafted the plan which could be voted
down only by majority of the Coun-
Gil. And only five of the nations in
the Council were ION the fence" when
Halifax and Bonnet sent the plan
around for Council consideration be-
fore its formal presentation at the
Councils closed meeting set for today,
These five nations were Iran, Soviet
Russia. China, New Zealand and
Bolivia.

empty title of King of Kings" de-
cided to come to Geneva with his
legal experts to fight the powers which
once backed him in his opposition to

Wage Bill
Continued From First Page !

up in the House tomorrow, Repre-
sentative Rayburn said.
Told of Relief Bill.
The Texan. who also attended this
second conference, said the President
was told at it of the relief bills provi-
sion for appropriating direct to the
Federal agencies that will use them.
The President expressed no opposition,
he said
In previous bills of this kind the ap-
preparations have been made in lump
sum with the President allocating
them to the Works Progress, Public
Works Administration and other relief
agencies.
Representatives Taylor. Democrat.
of Colorado, and Woodrum. Democrat,
of Virginia, who were among the con-
ferees, said that under the change,
the President still would pass finally
on individual projects. They said
there was very little difference" in
the two systems.
Most legislators agreed that action
on the wage-hour bill would present
the greatest obstacle to June / ad-
journment.
II the House passes the bill, as ad-
ministration leaders contend it will
joint committee must reconcile the
provisions with those in a different
Senate measure passed last summer.
That might require two or three weeks
The Senate proposed to let board
fix minimum work week of 40 hours
or more and minimum wage of not
more than 40 cents an hour. The
House would set up an arbitrary
system beginning at A. hours and 25
cents and gradually shifting to 40
hours in two years and 40 cents an
hour in three years
Opinion was divided in the Senate
on the reception the House proposal
would be given there.
Senator Borah. Republican, of
Idaho said he would support the meas
ure if it set reasonable standards for
wages and hours without creating q
new board to fix the standards.
Senator Harrison, Democrat, of Mis-
Sissippi, said he believed a wage-hour
bill which did not fix a differential be-
tween the North and the South would
encounter stiff opposition in the Sen
ate. The House bill omits any differ
ential.
Chairman Thomas, Democrat. of
Utah, OF the Senate Labor Committee,
however, predicted the Senate readily
would agree to the legislation.
Before leaving Charleston, S. c., yes
terday, Mr.. Roosevelt reiterated his
qualification that a majority of the
House had signed the petition to
wrest the wage-hour bill from the hos
tile Rules Committee.
He referred reporters to an earlier
statement in which he also expressed
satisfaction with the progress of the
relief and public works program. House
passage late this week by an over
whelming vote was predicted by most
legislators
