Radio Appeals
To Congress For
Change In Rules
By Bil l. WHITI.EY
RADIO. Small radio atations arc
on the brink of a fight for their
live*.
Daytime radio stattona. for yeari
operating under .a tremendous
handicap, are making a move to
have Congress look Into the whole
problem of how and why they can
not have stabilized operating hours.
Under present FC'C regulations,
daytime stations are permitted to
broadcast only during the hours
between sunrise and sunset. In
the summer months, that means
between about 6 a.m. and 0 p.m. |
and in the winter months, about
two or three hours less each day
REASON. The reason for this Is j
an old agreement with Mexico that 1
U. S. stations would not use six
channels during nightime hours.
It Is an agreement that the small
stations want terminated, but In
past years, the FCC has refused
to budge.
In order to give the matter an
airing, the small stations are ask
ing Congiess to hold hearings on
the issue and And out the hows and
t whys of the ECC's attitude.

be a first-class candidate for the
statement-of-the-week, or some
thing equalty dignified
t Secretary of Agriculture Benson
said on Ed Burrow's special TV
farm show last week that it is
"demagoguery of the worst sort"
to say that the small farmer is be
ing squeezed out of business.
It depends on how you look at
It?or maybe on what Mr Benson
means by "squeezed." Or. maybe,
he might just say he didn't say it.
It just depends I
HUMOR. There is absolutely no
foundation for a nasty rumor that's
been going around Washington
lately The Democrats say it's
nothing but "dirty politics" in all
the reports that they'll nominate
Ben Hogan for President if Ike
dtcl^es to rtin again.
