ing the first half of 1871: the April

Health Group Also
Protests Radio Ban

The Greenbelt Health Associa-
tion has allied itself with other
cooperatives of the country by
making formal protest to the
broadcasting companies and to the
Senate Investigation Committee of
the discrimination showed against
them by the refusal of time on the
air. At recent board meeting,
such protest was authorized by the
board, and letters have gone out
to the National Broadcasting Com
pany, the Columbia Broadcasting
System and the Senate investiga-
ting committee.
The board also authorized the
purchase of an adding machine to
be used in the office of the Associ-
alton.
