It Is not expected that Mr.. Conley
viii run this year, though his fol-
lowers still seek to make reprisal
for what they claim was the shelv-
eng Of their candidate in 1888. That
gear the organization used its
strength in a primary against DAN
Gel x. Pickett and won. When the
Iielegates met, they nominated Mr..
Ega1, over protests by the Conley
group that the nomination had been
promised to their man.

NBC and Chs Refuse
Coop Advertising

The National Broadcasting Com
pany, pressed for a reason for it's
refusal to sell time to the cooper
atives, has concluded that the
use of the radio stations it owns
and controls would attract new
members to consumer co-opera-
tives. On those grounds NBC has
refused to sell time to the Cooper
ative League for its long antici-
pated program, "Let's Get To-
gether, Neighbor" which was
scheduled to go on the air on
thirty stations from coast to coast
starting Sunday, October II.
At least that is the reason
James V. Mcconnell, manager of
National Spot and Local Sales for
NBC, gave to Atherton and Cur
rier, New York advertising agency
handling the cooperative account.
This reason was given following
long session between represen-
tatives of NBC, Atherton and
Currier and the Cooperative
League at which time the question
was raised as to whether or not
the coop program would be "con-
troversial."
The sales department of the
Columbia Broadcasting System,
following the NBC move, refused
to sell the co-operatives available
time which had been cleared on
stations WJSV, Washington, D. C.
and WCCO, Minneauolis, both of
which it owns and controls. Column
bia raised the question orally Of
the Controversial" nature of
Consumer Cooperation but when
pressed for an answer refused to
put in writing the reasons for its
refusal to sell time to the co-opera-
tives.
The board of directors of the
Cooperative League Of the USA,
feeling that the refusal of the
large radio companies to sell time
to the co-ops would set dangerous
precedent, voted to postpone the
radio series pending an investiga-
tion by the Federal Communica-
tions Commission or other federal
agencies concerned with the radio
industry.

BY PHIL WExLER

Arthur Rysticken, commander
of Greenbelt's Civilian Defense
Corps, announced early this week
that a complete understanding has
been reached between Robert
Sherwood, chairman of the Mary
land Defense Council, and the De
Tense Corps here in town.
although we have developed
here our own complete civilian de-
Tense organization, we are also
vital part of the defense project
of Prince Georges County" stated
Mr.. Rysticken. eve are more
than happy to be in position to
offer any available aid we pos
sibly can to the County. We must
stand united in our defense efforts
as well as concentrate our strength
upon winnin this war at the front" :"
Communication System Clarified
AS a result of his meeting with
Mr.. Sherwood. Mr.. Rysticken stat
ed that the Fire House Control
Center will, hereafter receive all
calls and messages from the
County Control Center. George
Panagoulis, corps controller, will
then relay the messages to the
chiefs of staff concerned. When
calls come through the Control
Center a cascade telephone system
is placed into use by the Corps for
contracting the necessary defense
personnel and calling them to their
stations.
Up to the present writing when
ever a County defense official had
a request to make of Grenbelt
Chief of Staff, he called him at
home. If the request was granted,
the Corps as whole never knew
just what equipment nor how
many men were actually available
at any one time. With all calls
and requests coming through the
Control Center the commander will
know at all times where every
piece of equipment is located.
Staff Meeting Next Week
There will be a staff meeting
of all Defense Corps chiefs some
time during the middle of next
week. All chiefs will be notified
as to time and place and atten-
dance at this meeting will be COM
pulsory. Organizational duties
and their full responsibilities will
be discussed and explained in de-
tail. The immediate training of
defense workers and the coordina-
ton of defense activities will be
important topics on the agenda.
