WASHINGTON, Jan. 16-R)
- Regulations to keep enemy
spies from broadcasting military
data to lurking submarines or
secret stations over impromptu
radio programs were issued to-
day by the Office of Censorship.
A wartime code of radio
practises laid down by censor
ship director Byron Price called
on broadcasters to ban all quiz,
man-in-the street, request and
other spot programs whic h
might be used by Axis agents to
communicate with their head
quarters or with s q b o I eu r 8
through prearranged signals.
HEARD ABROAD
In addition, radio stations
were told that because they were
being heard abroad by Axis in
telligence operatives, certain
material which may appear on
the news service wires as ap-
proved for newspapers may not
be appropriate for radio"
Price explained that while
printed matter is censored at
the national borders, mo such
post publication censorship is
possible in radio" He announc-
ed that j. H. Ryan of Toledo,
Ohio, assistant director of CEN
sorship, would administer the
radio code.
Besides all of the restrictions
which the press has been asked
to observe, the radio regulations
call for extraordinary precau-
tons to nullify attempts of for
eign agents to use the air waves
to send out information.
With this in view, Price asked
that. generally speaking, the in

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16-(R)
Chairman George (D-Ga.) of
the Senate Finance committee
declared today that the Army
and Navy had "blindly failed
to keep abreast of aircraft devel-
opments in modern warfare.
He made the assertion while
discussing with newsmen the re-
port of the investigating COM
mittee headed by Senator Tru-
man (D-Mo.) which charged yes
terday that poor planning and
administration had resulted in
inadequate and largely "medi-
OGRE" warplane production.
"Up until few weeks ago."
George declared, THE Army and
Navy apparently had not af-
forded the Air Force its proper
place in modern warfare. They
were not up to- date with their
designs and blue print and they
hadn't done the work that should
have been DONE"
lin New York last night, John
H. Jouett, president of the aero
nautical chamber of commerce
Of America, took pointed excep-
ton to the conclusions of the
committees report.

Sharp restrictions have been
placed on weather broadcasts
The radio may use only such
weather data as specifically ap-
proved for 1t by the Weather
Bureau, and broadcasters have
been asked to avoid reference
to weather conditions in describ-
ing current events.
OTHER RULES
The code asks withholding
from the air reports of informa-
ton from unidentified sources
as to ship sinkings, or reverses
or successes of land forces.
Price advised radio to steer
clear of dramatic progra m s
which attempts to portray the
horrors of combat; to avo d
sound effects which might be
mistaken for air raid alarms. u
radio is one of the greatest
liaison officers b etween the
fighting front and the people, /"
he said. Its voice will speak the
news first. It should speak wise
ly and calmly. In short, radio
is endowed with q rich oppor-
tunity to keep America enter
tanned and interested, and that
opportunity should be pursued
with vigor."
Price cited these two possible
dangers If proper safeguards
were not taken:
l. Enemy exploitation of sta
tons heard only within the
United States to expedite the
work Of saboteurs.
2. Enemy exploitation Of sta
tons heard internationally to
transmit vital information.

Rich Trucker
Out on Writ
Tersst Of Jury
Investigation

CHICAGO. Jan. 16-tR)--
John L. Keeshin, wealthy truck
ing magnate and onetime ad-
wiser to Generalissimo Chang
Kai-Shek, was at liberty on a
writ Of habeas corpus today
after having been held without
charge In connection with a
grand jury investigation of the
slugging of one of his compel
itors.
States Attorney Thomas j.
Courtney. who ordered Keesh-
|tn's arrest, said three men
named Bruce Borrelli. 80, a
Keeshin employee, as their lead
er in the beating of John T.
Gottlieb on Jan. 6. Gottlieb's
jaw was broken. Borrelli is
the son and personal bailiff of
a municipal court judge.
Keeshin was released early
today at a hearing in the home
of Circuit Judge Walter L. La
Buy ruled the detention was IL
legal without a warrant and
that he either should have been
booked with q charge or re-
leased.
The trucking executive was
seized last night as he emerged
from the grand jury room after
his fourth appearance during
the inquiry.
"It's a sorry situation" Court
ney said, "when a so-called big
business man, pretending or re-
spectability orders the slugging
of a business competitor who re-
fuses to bow to his dictatorship"
In a cell, Keeshing said. II
don't know why anybody would
bring this infamous charge
against me. It's an attempt to
smear me and my company.
You can bet your bottom dol
lar that when this case gets to
court I will be completely vim
dicated."
Keeshin, who entered the in
dustry with a single team and
built up an extensive business,
sent a commission of three men
to China in 1899 at the request
of Chang Kai-Shek to advise
and aid In reorganizing trans
portation over the Burma road.

Predicts Auto
Plants to STAY
in Plane Field

DETROIT. Jan. l6-(R-
John c. Widman. aircraft en-
gineer for the Murray Body
Corporation of America. told
the Society of Automotive En-
gineers here last night that
some of the major units in the
automobile industry now pro-
ducing airplanes would remain
in the aero-nautical business
after the war has ended.
1T is not beyond reason to
suppose that this concentrated
course in aircraft which the au-
tomobile industry Is now under
going, will have q lasting effect
in the industry" Widman de-
clared.
81 believe that some Of the
large automotive manufacturers
have been contemplating for
some time the entrance into the
aircraft field. BY the time this
national emergency Is over there
will be a large number Of tram
ed personnel available for future
use.
1.-THE automotive companies
always have had a highly COM
petitive market. There is no
doubt that with the new plants,
equipment and personnel avail
able that they can attempt to
TAX their place with others In
the aircraft industry" Widman
said.
Discussing the problem OF
converting motorcar plants into
airplane factories, Widman said:
1T is doubtful If the average
automobile plant can be 50
easily converted. Units Of the
size of modern aircraft or their
major assemblies. require such
space for fabrication that many
of our buildings are seriously
cramped. In some cases 1t Is
necessary to construct new
buildings. especially for final as
semblies.
"Subassemblies can, however,
be manufactured In existing
buildings with only slight al
terations."
