AIR COMMISSION ORDERS DRASTIC CHANNEL SHIFTS New Frequency Assignments Subject of Much Speculation. BY JOHN T. HAWKINS, Tim's Radio Editor. News of extreme Importance to Indiana radio listeners was contained In two sweeping proposals made Wednesday by the federal radio commission. The first drastic change made by the commission i concerned eighteen of the smaller i broadcasting stations, changing i their frequency assignments as a solution to the serious interference problem now' faced by stations on j common wave lengths. The second change, a proposal not j yet having the authority of a defin- j re order, suggests changes in the j frequency assignments of seventeen high-powered stations operating on cleared channels. This proposal also is offered as an interference remedy. Looking back into past actions i f the commission the situation is I >,)• n to much more consideration j ban is apparent at first giance. Tn the cleared channel changes • roposed by the commission it is oted that WOWO at Ft. Wayne and i WWVA at Wheeling, W. Va .are reained on a common channel, 1,180 . kilocycles, being removed from the j 1.160 kilocycle channel that belongs) to Indiana, according to general order No. 40, issiied by the commission some time ago. In this, according to some observers, the commission has found a way to partly satisfy some of the demands of WOWO voiced recently, that they be given more power and a cleared channel in preference to WFBM, the Indianapolis Power and Light Company station. In shifting WOWO. the 1,160 kilocycle assignment is left open to the use of WHAM at Rochester, N. Y„ a relatively low-powered station. This gives the radio commission, should they desire to do so, opportunity to place WFBM on the 1.160 kilocycle channel, as representatives of the station asked them to do in their recent hearing, with the high power asked for by the local station. It was thought for some time that the request of WOWO and WFBM for the channel legally belonging to Indiana might bring about a breakdown of the commission's general order No. 40, but these changes show a desire on the part of the radio body to give the two Indiana stations at least a part of what they ask and yet not disrupt the entire radio situation.

DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of this hamburg tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacupful at any time. It is the most effective way to break a cold and relieve grip, as it opens the pores, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable, therefore harmless.—Advertisement.
