LOOKING AHEAD

This type of guide is the most truly serviceable. No hard and fast rules can be laid down as to what an industry may or may not do because of the wide variations in conditions surrounding each case.
 To date we have made some progress. Statements have been given out with regard to.
 l. Alleged violations of the anti trust laws by automobile finance companies.
 9 Opposition of the District of Columbia Medical Society to the Group Health Association.
 3. Exhibitor producer combina- tions in the motion picture indus try.
 A. Alleged milk price fixing in northern Illinois.
 Intelligent men of all political parties agree that unless coercion and infleXible price structures by large organizations are ended, a greater degree of government con- trol of business than anyone now dreams of is inevitable Therefore, everyone who desires free indus try must favor an trust or ganiza ton and enforcement policy adequate to meet the problem.

OL LYMPICS TO BE MOVED UP
 TO JULY, 1940
Finl a nd Acts So United States Collegians
 May Compete

HELSINGFORS, Finland, Sept. 13.-Finland is doing everything possible to assure a record entry from the United States in the 1940 Olympics.
 The first thing Finland intends to do is change the date for the Games so that college athletes can compete and still get back to Am erica for the opening of the uni versailles.
 Japan, due manly to the de- mands of her climate, had moved the date to September, so it might have been impossible for Ameri- can students to attend.
 Finland has decided to move the Games up to July No definite day has been set for the start but it will likely be some time between the 10th and the end of the month.
 Eliminate Propaganda
 More than that, the Finnish Olympic committee has started 3 move to keep propaganda out of the Games. Consul Ernst Kro- gius, Finland's representative on the International Olympic com mittee, has consulted the presi- dent of the LOG, Count Ballet Latour of Belgium, about the Games and has been advised to return as nearly as possible to the old Olympic ideal and program.
 This means Finland is likely to eliminate sports such as basket ball, which have beeen added to the program in the past few years. It is probable that little more than the obligatory program will be scheduled.
 Praise For Japanese
 Finnish authorities have been generous in their praise of the Japanese Olympic authorities for their cooperation since the site of the Games was changed.
 The Japanese committee turned over all it's records and the results of its research into the problems Of running the Games. This is said to have been of great value, and little doubt is felt here about the ability of the Finnish committee to make adequate preparations be- fore July. l940.

NbC WILL FIGHT
AIR CENSORSHIP.
IN DRAMA CASE.
FEC Says 30 Stations
Carried IndeCenCy

In the wake of stormy session,
the Federal Communications Com
mission put 80 stations of the
National Broadcasting Company'S
system on the censorship spot for
a broadcast of Eugene O'NeilPs
play, Beyond the Horizon" a
Pulitzer Prize winner.
Deciding the broadcast was
"profane and indecent" the FEC
called upon the stations to de-
fend the morality of the drama
or face loss of their licenses.
CRAVEN DISSENTS
During deliberation of the case,
decision of which was announced
last night, it was reported that
Comdr. T. A. M. Craven, u. S. NJ.
denounced fellow members Of the
commission for attempting to
censor the air"
The broadcast occurred on July
28 and the decision was aimed
directly at Station WTCN in
Minneapolis.
Studying the script Of the broad
cast, the FEC. with Commander
Craven dissenting. held that the
language used in the play
violated the radios d. ency
standards.
NBC TO FIGHT
Meanwhile the National Broad
casting Company's representa-
tives prepared for showdown
fight on the censorship powers Of
the commission.
I'VE are going to fight this
decision and censorship plans of
the FEC to the limit" said
Frank M. Russell, NBC vice pres
tdent." 1T was in accordance
with the commissions wishes
that we decided to broadcast
the best of American drama"
The FEC decision was the Sec
ond sensational ruling made with
in the last nine months. Last
December the commission repri-
manded the NBC for its broadcast
Of the Mae West Garden of Eden"
sketch. Later apologies of the Of
Tending stations were accepted by
