Radio CHICAGO RADIO STATION FIGHTS RULINGOF U. S. Qase Booked for Nov. 8 of Hight Importance in Broadcast Battle. BY GEORGE SANFORD HOLMES Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.—Injunction proceedings against station WMBB of Chicago, filed by the federal radio commission, to prevent operation of the station in defiance of its orders, will be heard before Judge James Wilkerson of the federal district court of Chicago, Nov. 8, in a case regarded as the most important litigation yet developed on the part of broadcasters to test the validity of the radio act of 1927, , Besides this case, the commission Is involved in two others, one con'cerning the commission’s discretion in determining the amount of power i which it can assign stations, and the other relating to the right of • Protestants to hale the commission members themselves into court to give testimony on rulings. Station WOK-WMBB was denied a renewal oof its license on Aug. 25. Instead of following the terms of the radio act, it is claimed, which call for an appeal to the court of appeals of the District of Columbia, ,It chose to disregard the act, on the ground that it is unconstitu- ■ tional and void. The attorney general, acting through Bethuel M. Webster Jr., a ' special assistant, filed a bill of equity in the federal district court at Chicago, Oct. 7 to enjoin the threatened operation of the station. In cooperation with United States District Attorney George E. Q. • Johnson, motion was entered before Judge Wilkerson for a temporary injunction pending final hearing, Nov. 8, until which time, by stipulation, the station will not go on the air. The station has a power of 20,000 watts, representing a large investment, and it is understood that commission’s ruling will be opposed on the ground that it deprives its owners of property without just violation, constituting a violation of the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution. The government contends that the threatened operation of the station involves an obstruction to and interference with interstate United States has sovereign and commerce in a field over which the plenary power. It is seeking an injunction to forestall "the havoc and disturbance that would be created to the broadcasting spectrum (Particularly in view of the new allocations) by a return of the station to operation.”

KIDNEY PAINS AND RHEUMATISM CONE Farmer Is Able to Work Again, After Years of Illness. Trying to work a farm, while crippled and in constant pain for several years, was the hard task faced by Matt Reiland, Route 4, Stockton, 111. He tells of his recovery, in the following letter: “1 suffered from kidney trouble and rheumatism for several years. My back ached so I could hardly bend. My head ached, and the pains in my limbs were very severe. I was anemic, by blood was poor, and I was so weak and dizzy that my farm work was almost impossible. But today, life looks entirely different. My rheumatism is all gone and there are no kinks or pains in my back. My kidney trouble has disappeared and my sleep is not disturbed. I am eating hearty meals and feel fine in every way. It feels wonderful to have good, rich blood coursing through my veins. I trace all this change to the day I started taking Viuna. My wife and son are both taking it now, with wonderful results. Viuna has surely been a God-send to our family.” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, la*y liver and weak kidneys It purifies the blood,, clears the skin, restore! appetite and digestion, and bring! new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then If you’re not glad you tried Viuna. your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Cos.. Indianapolis, Ind.
