Re Of Sermons Is Postponed:

FCC Investig Air Situation Higating Indiana

were going slow today on plang to broadcast their Sunday serviees over their own carrier current radio stations.

an tion of a “hot-bed” of illegal radio activity in southern Indiana, At least two Bedford churches— the Church of God and the First Christian church—canceled orders for equipment to broadcast their Sunday programs after a visit and a lecture by an FOC investigator from Chicago, At Columbus earlier this week, operation of “radio station” IQW| re was halted abruptly when an FCC engineer informed the owners that their current station was violating federal regulations. ‘Hams’ Not Involved

wave radio “hams” were involved, the communications commission reported. It said the violators were persons using devices which carry programs along ordinary. power lines. The devices are legal, an official said, as long as they conform with federal regulations concerning the maximum strength of signal permitted andthe maximum allowable interference. The station at Columbus was built by Gene Foster of ord and sold to two Bartholomew county men for $250. A few days later the owners were ‘nformed that not only was their power too strong, but their locally-adopted “LQW"” call letters had not been assigned from Washington according to regulations.

Mr. Poster sald here that he had planned to start operation of one of the stations at Seymour Wedmesday, but after a talk with FCC engineers he changed his mind.

David,” the boy evangelist, says he was carried to heaven by angels. His ministry dates back to three years ago when at the age of nine he fell unconscious on the floor at a religious meeting in Los Angeles. His “heavenly experience” occurred during the five hours that he lay there, Told Many Things Little David describes “the wing less angels who bore him aloft to heaven and the voice of God whom he could hear but could not see.” “God told me many things,” the boy recalls solemnly. “He told me

I was to stand before the pulpit to preach and He would put the words into my heart. He told me of many things to come but held me to a promise never to reveal them until He gave me His permission.” Jack Walker, little David's father, who at the time manufactured religlous plaques, hooted at hjs son's tale. But David refused to eat until he was permited to tell the world of his experience. After the boy had fasted five days his father relented. And little David's career as an

evangelist and faith healer bégan.
