Fishing The Air BY G. SHUBERT FIIYE AH references are Central Standard Time

r——i UMEROUS letters have IN I reached Fishing the Air I* ’ I charging the Federal Radio Commission with favoring the national chain stations in the allocation of frequencies and power. The commission has replied, at the request of Fishing the Air, with a statement setting forth its position, that will interest those making charges and other radio fans as well. The statement follows: “Under the Radio Acts of 1927 the Commission is obligated to use its yard-stick in the allocation of frequencies and power ‘public interest, convenience and necessity.* “Furthermore, the commission is instructed by the act either specifically or by inference, to make allocations according to priority, the mechanical equipment of stations and the public service rendered by the various stations. Followed Instructions “Guided by such instructions the commission had no other alternative than to assign to the old, wellestablished stations which have been rendering good public service for a number of years preferred waves with reasonable power. Our investigation disclosed that there is a tremendous public demand for many pioneer stations, which have shown great versatility in the preparation of programs and ability to cater to public demands. Art Guides Commission "In making allocations the commission has been guided by the letter and spirit of the act which created it and our best judgment been brought to bear in dealing with the various broadcasting stations. “Allocations have been made solely on the basis of demonstrated capacity of the individual station to serve the public, and without regard to whether the station belongs to a chain or contemplates such a step. “We always have been mindful of the fact that the small local stations have a large following and render a unique service in their various communities. Because of the vast sum needed to maintain a high class station and to obtain high grade talent these local stations are necessarily handicapped

in comparison with the large stations. Fair to Small Stations Bilt we have made sincere efforts to be fair and just to the small stations, giving them such waves and power as are available, and we believe they have not been seriously handicapped by recent assignments. Furthermore, it is a fact that many of the small stations have not kept pace with the radio art. “The commission has taken no part in the organization of chains of stations for broadcasting, nor has it had any voice regarding membership in the various chains. The so-called independent stations, we understand, are constantly joining the chains of their own volition, imbued with the idea that such a plan of broadcasting is mutually advantageous.” Mrs. Jessamine Barkley Fitch is the soloist of the final program of the Indianapolis Community Fund series to be broadcast at 8:30 tonight by WFBM. Mrs. William Herbert Gibbs, radio chairman under whose direction the programs have been given will accompany the solosist. Mrs. Fitch, with Mrs. W. N. Fleming, Jr., pianist, and Miss Bernice Reagan, violinist, will give an old melodies program. Mrs. Brandt C. Downey, chairman of the Woman’s Divisions for the 1928 campaign, now in progress, will give a five-minute talk on the Community Fund. A portion of Charles Gounod’s “Faust,” presented by the Chicago Civic Opera Company will be broadcast from the stage of the Auditorium Theater, Chicago, by the NBC Blue network at 9 tonight. Hans Barth, celebrated American pianist, will play a group of selections of Chopin in the Half Hour With Famous Composers for NBC Red network listeners this evening at 7. The .Maxwell House hour, broadcast tonight at 8 by the NBC Blue network, and featuring May Peterson, soprano, formerly of the Opera Comique and the Metropolitan
