RADIO STATION PROPOSED FOR CITY IS FOUGHT WFBM and WKBF Oppose Application of New Indianapolis Firm. Attorneys for stations WFBM and WKBF in Indianapolis appeared today before the radio commission in Washington to oppose the application of the Hoosier Broadcasting Company for a construction permit to build a station which would operate without limit on a 930-kilo-cycle wave length, a United Press dispatch related. Arthur Cook repiesented the Hoosier Broadcasting Company and his witness was A. R. Hylton of Indianapolis. who testified the proposed station wculd not interfere seriously with other statiorts and that there was need for another local station here. Thomas Littlepage, representing WFBM, and Everett Walker of Evansville, lnd., representing WKBF, appeared at the hearing without invitation from the commission, but argued the new policy of the commissioners permitted any persons affected by a hearing td appear regardless of invitation, the dispatch said. Walker and Littlepage said that granting the application would adversely affect the two stations they represent. Littlepage said Indiana now is 3.46 units under the radio quota fixed by the commission, but if WFBM’s pending application for a clear channel were granted the Indiana quota would be absorbed. Elmer W. Pratt, radio commission examiner, ruled against Walker and Littlepage, but permitted them to cross-examine witnesses and to state their case on the understanding that no facts developed would be included in His report to the commission.

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—A straw which indicates that the trade winds are actually blowing favorably is seen in the August upturn in steel ingot production, the first increase since March. A decrease which some expect in the steel corporations unfilled tonnage, should matter little. Os the hand to mouth character of buying recently, we are fully aware. With the large orders now in hand, better mill operations and consumption are more important. It is interesting to note Lord Melchett's warning of an English tariff. If that would remedy Englands trouble, well and good. Prosperous British industry and employed labor would make that country a better customer for us than she is today. It would mean greater demand for our wheat, copper, cotton and other products. We need not fear particularly competition with British industry. The possibilities of world commerce are limitless. The worldwide economic unsettlement has led to political unrest and further curtailed consumption of world goods. Countries so disturbed will soon realize the futility of revolution and rebellion. The yearning for peace and comfort will displace that for violence and destruction. The new Argentine regime appears to be encountering some armed opposition. Now that our psychology is improving, it may influence that of the world. It may bring the world investor back into our stock market to-share in our prospective business recovery.

State Auditor Archie Bobbitt announced today that SSOO of the $10,760 due the state on alleged bootleg gasoline, used here by the Greyhound buses, has been paid by the North American Oil Company, Chiacgo, which sold the gasoline and should have paid the tax.

WEAK SUPPORT SENDS WHEAT MARKET DOWN V Buenos Aires Reopens With Sharp Advance: Corn Prices Lower. Bn United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—Wheat opened fractionally lower on the Board of Trade this morning with moderate selling and lack of buying support. Liverpool was flat and dull, but steady at the decline. Buenos Aires reopened today with a sharp advance. Corn was unevenly lower, September again being under pressure. Oats followed the other grains lower. . • Liverpool Off J At the opening wheat was s sC at ?sC lower; corn was unchanged to lc lower, and oats were off % to 3 sC. Provisions were weak. As expected, Liverpool stalled lower and by mid-afternoon had worked its way down to l s s to l%c off. The local trade turned more bearish Monday when it became apparent that there would be no follow up to the advance caused by the Argentine news. The market reverted to North American conditions and the big Canadian movement took the lead, depressing the market. The big feed demand and the belief that Europe will have to come to North America for its needs in* the near future acts as a check on the decline. Oats Strong Corn bulls Were disappointed when that grain followed wheat lower Monday in the face of the bullish fundamentals. The trade has slowed up perceptibly, awaiting the government report which is due Wednesday. Cash oats continues to be the strengthening factor in that pit. The recent weakness in the other grains, however, has been depressing.
