Special Radio Service
For Doctors Banned

The Federal Communications
Commission has declined to author
ize the establishment of a special
radio service for doctors whereby
they could receive emergency calls
while in their automobiles, much like
the present police emergency service.
In explaining the reasons for re-
fusing license for such emergency
service in New York, the commits
sion said that since no frequencies
are specifically assigned for this
purpose, authorization of the pro-
posed service would require diversion
of facilities from their intended
uses. This could be justified only in
response to a proper showing that
the public interest, convenience and
necessity justifies such a reassign-
ment of frequencies.

LIG II I
Paul V. McNutt Hopes
For F. r. Support In
Presidential Drive

WASHINGTON Paul Y.
McNutt will be home this sum-
mer to launch his 1910 presi-
dental candidacy with a bang.
However, the handsome ex-
governor is not allowing his
enthusiasm to run away with
his discretion.
His departur, from the Phiip-
pines has been deferred well beyond
the date originally planned, and ne
probably will not return TO the
United States until the end Of June
or later.
The fact that the Philippine gem
eral assembly is in session gives
him a good official reason for stick
ing in Manila a while longer. But
the real point to the delay is that
McNutt prefers not to get back
until congress has gone home.
That way there is less danger Of
his becoming entsngled in explosive
domestic political controversies.
1t is understood that Me-
Mutt will not resign a. Philip
pine high commissions until
after he has had a personal
chat with President Roosevelt.
The timing Of his resignation
will depend somewhat upon the
outcome of that visit. In any
case. he plans to enter the isfe
Democratic primaries In every
state that has them.
McNutt will probably Try not to
commit himself on thorny domestic
political issues until he has TO. HIS
advisers are urging him TO Wait
until ne sees how the tide Of papiic
sentiment is running and then swim

that President Roosevelt VIII not

Princess Elizabeth Has Her Birthday Today - Hus=
 band Is Speculation
By HARRY L. PERCY

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 London, April 21.-(UP)-Princess Elizabeth entered her teens today with court circles already speculat- ing about her future husband.
 The chestnut-haired little princess Is now 13 years old, known to her friends as "a good sport" and eager to acquire grown up" clothes.
 Because she will probably sit on the throne one day, the problem of marriage may in future years be as important an affair of state as it was for her uncle, the Duke of Windsor. Already, there are those who look around the diminishing circle of European royalty and try to guess what the future will hold for the princess.
 Among the names that frequently arise in such speculation are those of Prince Gorm of Denmark, who is 20 years old; Prince Carol Johann of Sweden, now g; Lord MacDuff, s, and Lord Kalkieth, who is just a year older than the prin- cess. As for the princess on her 18th birthday-She's interested in other things.
