Of this contract?"
Mr.. Hillman replied that he be-
lieved the contract was IAN arrange
ment adopted by both parties for
some ulterior purpose"
Mr.. Lewis said Mr.. Hillman was
acting as he. was despite the fact
that the latter's own union. the
c. I. o. Amalgamated Clothing
Workers, was supporting the c. I. o.
drive to organize the building trades
workers into an industrial group.
AS an example of o. P. M. Inter
ference" Mr.. Lewis testified that
the Blaw Knox Co., Pittsburgh steel
firm, had been ordered to sub-con-
tract the reconditioning of mill at
Martins Ferry, Ohio, to an A. F. l..
contractor rather than use 300 U. C..
w. o. C. workers already in its en-
ploy on the job. He said, similarly,
that contractor at Camp Chaffee,
Ark, had imported A. F. L. workers
from other States. rather than en-
ploy local residents, because of his
understanding that the o. P. M.
stabilization agreement required
him to do So"

Not Guilty to Charges
Of Narcotics Violations

Six indictments against 37-year-
old Laurel Md druggist, who
pleaded not guilty in Prince Georges

charges of illegal sale Of narcotics,
were the result Of an investigation of
q stimulated horse at the Laurel

Gals of the Bureau of Narcotics said
today.
Leavitt H. Bripkley, proprietor of
a Laurel pharmacy, who was named
in the indictments alleging illegal
narcotics sale, said he knew nothing
of the charges until notified by
police to be in court yesterday. He
has been q registered druggist in
Maryland since 1925 and has been in
Laurel for the last five years, he
said.
Oficials of the narcotics Office said
that testimony of one of its agents
before the grand jury was based on
an investigation made after saliva
tests of a horse named Crius, which
won the seventh race at the Laurel
track october "a, 1910, showed
Crius had been given morphine. A
trainer later was suspended by the
Maryland State Racing Commits
sion as result of the tests, mar
cotics officials said. The horse later
was sold,
lie Roy Morrison, a Federal mar
cotics agent, was listed as one of the
witnesses who testified before the
grand jury.
After the suspension of the train
er, narcotics agents checked all the
drug stores in Laurel, which are re-
quired by law to keep records for
two years OF all purchases and sales,
1t was learned.
Mr.. Binkley is charged specifically
with selling hypodermic tablets of
morphine sulphate not in pursu-
ance of properly executed written
prescription of a physician, dentist
or veterinary" each indictment cov-
ering an alleged sale TO a different
purchaser. He is a resident of Uni
versity Park.

Meanwhile, Especial Senate SUBJ
committee is preparing to start
another congressional study of the
traffic situation next Tuesday.
This survey will follow a similar
study completed last week by a
House subcommittee. A final report
on the findings Of this earlier survey
is being written at present by Chair
man Schultz.
Burton Heads Study.
The new study will be directed
by Senator Burton, Republican OF
Ohio, who several months ago was
appointed chairman of a special
subcommittee of the Senate District
Committee to try to get the city
out of some of its traffic difficulties
Meanwhile, the American Auto
mobile Association announced that
it will oppose vigorously the pro-
posed 2-cent increase in the gaso-
line tax. 1t called the increase
an "unwarranted and unjustifiable"
burden on Capital motorists.
The opening gun in its campaign
was a letter to Chairman McCar-
ran of the Senate District Com
mittee urging that opponents Of
the tax boost be given an oppor-
tunity to be heard. 1t informed
him that its opposition was based
among other things, on it's convic-
ton that the increase Is unneces-
sary at time when many of the
improvements to be financed have
not reached the drafting stage and
priorities on materials make it ques-
tionable whether they can be OBJ
tanned in the immediate future.
In addition to being an unfair
burden on District residents" the
letter continued, ut will also fall
heavily on many thousands of tenn
porary residents here for the emer-

profits and increase total revenues.
Mr.. Brant spoke of the diminish
ing number of daily papers in recent
years, attributing mergers and dis
continuances to increasing costs OF
publication and the growing COM
plexlty of the business.
In response to another question,
he said
Il don't believe many newspaper
men think that radio ever will sup

Mr.. Brant told the commission,

that in few weeks he would be-
come a Washington correspondent

be started in Chicago by Marshall

Before the threat of a petroleum

used to have the eggs brought TO
town in farm truck, but decided to
save gas" by bringing the eggs with
him when he drove to work in the
morning.
He said Mr. Ickes did not always
share his limousine with crates Of
eggs on his morning ride to work,
carrying them along only on occa-
sions. Sometimes Mrs. Ickes brings
the eggs 10 market in a station

The spokesman also said the story

BY way of comparison, the en-

a total of more than 400, 1000 enlisted
men, is a far cry from the Air

Diverse Ownership
OF Communications
Urged Before FEC.
Newspaper Witness
Gives Opinion at
Press -Rudio Session.
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

AS much diversity as possible in
ownership of the means of pGblic
communication was urged today be-
fore the Federal Communications
Commission by Irving Brant, Wash
ington commentator for the st.
Louis Star-Times, testifying as an
expert witness at the inquiry into
radio ownership Of newspapers.
But Mr.. Brant added that the
problem was larger and less simple
than deciding whether or not news
papers should be granted licenses to
operate broadcasting stations. He
indicated that the principle involved
large economic questions which
could not be solved by a Govern
ment edict.
Congress Would Decide.
IF you had before you a pro-
posal to separate radio stations and
newspapers completely" he told the
commission, regardless Of whether
the commission has legal authority,
as a matter Of political judgment 1t
probably would be referred to Con-
gress. Diversity of ownership is de-
sirable, but I don't want TO pick out
this one proposition as a solution
it is a very hard question. / favor
a general striving toward diversity
in all media Of public opinion"
Mr.. Brant, who is a veteran edi-
torial writer and author Of several
books on historic and economic sub
iects, saw the radio as not entirely
in competition with newspapers as
a means of imparting news. But the
spot" news value Of radio tran
scends that of the newspaper, he
asserted, adding:
IN the field of political speeches,
for instances, radio always beats the
newspaper, and the newspaper has
a tendency to follow the radio. AL
though newspapers complain that
radios get first chance at all i'm
portant speeches. it has been my
observation that they are more
liable to publish these speeches than
if they had not been on the air.
On the other hand, radio listeners
are stimulated to read a speech In
the paper If it was good one"
Lists Acquisition Motives.
Asked what he regarded as the
primary motive of newspaper in
acquiring a radio station, he men
toned first an impulse Ito exert
more power and influence" He
listed next a desire 10 experiment
with a new source of news. Such
reasons. he said, led to the use of
radio stations as a valuable business
