In a petition for reconsideration

authority to change its frequency.
The application was granted without

before the commission prior APP
plication by Station wills at Beck
ley for the same facilities.
The petition was filed on behalf
of the Beckley station, owned by
Joe l.. Smith, jr, son of Repre-
sentative Smith of West Virginia.
The petition said the applications
of the two stations raised questions
of public interest involving COM
munities competing with each other
for radio service. To determine
which community should be favored.
the petition claims that detailed
analysis Of present services should
be made: the social. cultural and
economic problems of each COM
munity examined: the value Of the
service they seek ascertained and
the ability of each community to
obtain service by other means care
fully studied.
The petition stated that the Beck
ley application, which had priority
was delayed by repeated calls for
specific information, and that the
subsequent applicant was not
asked for similar information.

Tax payments may be deferred
upon leave Of the court. If a man S
property is sold for taxes during
his absence he would have the
right to 60 to court not later than
six months after expiration of the
act and repossess his property by
payment Of his overdue taxes at
per cent per year. This would pre-
vent the taking of some homes, it
IS pointed out, and would also re-
duce the percentage of interest he
might otherwise have to pay to
persons who might have bought up
his taxes in some Jurisdictions.
In case of failure to make pay
ments on a mortgage on home the
man would be protected in courts
from any proceeding designed to
foreclose The Judge might stay
the proceedings, or make such
other disposition of the case as may
be equitable to conserve the inter-
ests of all parties"
