SAYS VETERANS BEING BARRED
Appeal Made to Broaden Labor Union Restrictions.
By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, April 15.-—~The labor department gave an optimistic report today on absorption of veterans into manufacturing industries.

Lavers, the Legion's national director of employment, appealed to local labor unions and state officials concerned with find-

Radio Dispute
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., April 15 (U. P.)) —R. B.Westergaard , manager of WNOX, said today the radio station would put into effect its ban on paid religious broadcasts despite the mass protest yesterday of 20,000 flag-waving and Bible-carrying followers of the Rev. J. Harold’ Smith.
In the future, the station will progroups in rotation but will not sell time to any religious organization. The new policy was denounced yesterday at a public mass meeting called by Mr. Smith. The handsome young evangelist called on his throng of 20,000 followers to stop listening to the radio station and to cancel their subscriptions to the Knoxville News-Sen-tinel, The station and the newspaper are both Scripps-Howard enterprises, Both of them, Mr. Smith charged, were “anti-God, anti-Bible, antichurch, anti-gospel, and preacher.” “Satan is at the bottom of this,” he said. “If you people protest, the federal communications commission might take away their license.
