minute statement by q member Of
Congress who has been reached by
these organizations Is broadcast I'm
mediately throughout the Nation.
Witnesses manage to appear before
congressional committees and use
them as sounding board for their
prejudicies.
And an uncritical person in some
other part of the country, reading
such charges which are issued ap-
parently under the auspices Of Con-
gress, may believe his suspicious
concerning the Jews have been con-
firmed.
Major findings which the league
recognized as disturbing" were:
A tendency among responsible
sections of society to accept public
figures previously considered t'unac-
ceptable"; an increase in employ
ment discrimination; greater dis
elimination In housing with in
creased use Of racial and religious
covenants in new building develop
ments; widespread use of racial and,
religious quotas in screening appli-
cants for admission to colleges and
professional schools.
Exclusion is Cited.
Also, the report added, an increase
in the practice of excluding Jews,
as group, from many hotels and
resort areas: widespread circulation
of approximately rs anti-Semitic
or suspect newspapers, in addition
to other types of 'hate" literature;
increased anti-Semitic sentiment
evident in foreign Language groups
which was reflected in its press pub

Buying Interest Lags
After Early Rally
On Stock Market
By the As,oeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Buyine
interest in stocks dwindled away in
today's market after an early flicker
of demand.
For a time the general run oi
prices showed gains of fractions te
more than point. Later the merest
suggestion of selling was enough tc
push a number of issues into the
minus column.
Trading activity was at the slowest
rate in months.
The behavior of the market was a
distinct disappointment to traders
who had hoped that the buying
which got under way late yesterday
would carry over into today's session
Many of Wall Streets technicians
who base their views on the trend
of the stock averages, predicted that
the general price level might fall a
little further before large-sized de-
mand appeared. This school OF
thought holds that the basic trend
in the market is still upward and
that current fluctuations merely
represent temporary setback.
The one fact that dampened trad
ing enthusiasm more than any other
continued to be the east-west dead
lock over Berlin.

Few Tears if FEC Rule
Ends Jackpot Shows
Nv the Axsoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-There
won't be any great shedding o1
tears along Radio Row If the food
of give-aways is dried up by the
proposed new rules of the Federal
Communications Commission.
The bank nights of the air." with
their big jackpots of automobiles,
homes, airplanes, trailers, fur coats
and the like. haven't been univer-
sally popular.
Sponsors of competing programs
have been something less than en-
thusiaStic. The same could be said
of radio performers who have lost
large segments of their listeners to
the lure of programs with lush
awards for identifying a tune or
somebody's voice, or answering a
few questions.
Listeners Show Discontent.
And while surveys have shown the
give aways consistently drawing
large audiences, there have been
murmurs of discomfort among lis
teners who don't care for them and
want more variety on the air.
Some Of the networks haven't
been too happy over their own give
aways, and here's why:
The prizes often are put up for
the most part, not by the sponsor
Of the program, but by makers of
other products who get free plugs
in return. Some network officials
have felt that in a number of cases
potential customers have been do
mating prizes to give-aways for their
advertising in lieu OF buying time for
shows of their own.
The FEC hasn't said when it
plans to put the new rules into
effect, but will accept statements
from interested parties up to Sep
tember 10. The rules, it said, are
to be used as a guide in determine
ing whether a program violates a
ban on lotteries contained in the
Federal Communications Act.
Programs Scrutinized.
The networks have been carefully
scrutinizing their give-away pro-
grams to see whether they measure
up to the new FEC standards, re-
quire revision, or will have to be
dropped. First reaction was that
the major shows could continue,
with perhaps some revisions in
methods of awarding prizes.
But radio circles generally expect
the strong FEC stand against give
aways to def1ate the recent boom in
that type show.
Fred Allen, whose own audience
rating suffered in the face of COM
petition from give-away. recently
commented that If the trend con-
tinued "refrigerators will be giving
away people"
