FCCCaIIs for Study
OF All Phases Of
TeIevision Industry
a By the Asseeiofed Pres.

The Federal Communications
Commission said yesterday it
"believes that a general study by
the commission into the entire
economic structure and opera
tons of the television industry
Is essential"
It made the observation, a re-
newal of previous suggestions. in
a report to the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee, which it
self has been undertaking a
study of "television network reg
ulation and the UHF ULTRA high
frequency problem.
George C. McConnaughey,
chairman of the FEC, in pre-
liminary report to the commit
tee, said the proposed FEC study
should include. but not be lin
tied to. consideration of the re-
spective roles of the networks,
advertisers, agencies. talent, in
dependent film producers and
distributors, and others program
sources as well as other means
of distributing programs to the
public"
The essential objective of such
a study" McConnaughey said,
would be to obtain for the first
time a factual basis for evalu-
ating the necessity and advis-
ability Of any action by the COM
mission, Congress and the De-
partment of Justice in this area"
He noted that in July, 1852,
there were only 108 TV stations

Group Trims Million
From Potomac River
Tunnel Estimates

A committee of Federal and
District officials was to continue
working through today to refine
cost estimates of a six-lane Poto-
mac River tunnel as opposed to a
bridge of the same size.
Preliminary conclusions drawn
by the committee are close to
those made by Ole Singstad, New
York tunnel authority, and pub
Iished over the past three
months.
They indicate the tunnel
would cost about 1894 million
$50 million more than the bridge.
AS late as Friday the techni-
clans had estimated the tunnel
cost at $54.5 million. Refine
ments made yesterday cut that
figure 81 million.
Under Study at White House
Mr.. Singstad had indicated a
$50 million cost for the proposed
tunnel. to go under the river at
Constitution avenue NV.
Engineer ommissioner
Thomas A. Lane and District
Highway Director John N. Rob-
ertson have said they would
favor the tunnel over the bridge
if the Federal government pays
the difference.
The matter is known to be
under study at the White House,
where consideration is being
given to possible pushing of
the tunnel plan.
Commission To Meet On 7th
The cost figures being worked
on now are in the hands of a
committee for the National Capt.
tai Planning Commission. It
consists of Douglas S. Brinkley.
Of the District highway depart
ment. Merel S. Sager Of the Ma
.tional Park Service. and Ellis
F. Price of the NCPC.
Estimates will be given to a
committee of the planning
group. made up of Conrad L.
Wirth, director of the park serv-
ice; Col. Lane; H.. j. Spelman,
Bureau of Public Roads, and
Leon Zach, Army Corps of En-
gineers.
