FCC's Non-Censorship Ruling
- .
Weathered Election Very Well
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent,
WASHINGTON.— (NEA)—ln spite of the tough
slugging by rival candidates in the pul:;t‘ election,
Federal Communications Cornmission’s ruling. that
radio stations may not censor political broadcasts
came through with only one chalienge. Even: it
was not serious. So the ruling will stand until
another election rolis around, or unless ‘Congress
amends Section 315 of the Communications Act of
1934, which might happen in the next session.
When FCC made its controversial interpreta
tion of this section of the law last February, the
radio industry freely predicted that it +vrouid
cause all kinds of trouble, FCC not only said the
law banned political censorship, It held that radio
station operators could not be sued under state
laws for libelous or defamatory réemarks made
over radio stations by political candidates.
FCC handed down this opinion shortly after
Wayne Coy became chairman. In announcing it,
Coy said he wanted to clear the air for the 1948
campaign. Up to that time, radio station operators
were pretty confused as to their duties and re
sponsibilities on political broadcasts. FCC tried to
settle the question, pending a test case before the
courts in which a legal opinion would officially
interprgt the: law.
1945 CASE BROUGHT FCC INTO ISSUE
FCC stepped into the case through a three-year
old application for renewal of license by station
WHLS, Port Huron, Mich, In this Port Huron csae,
as it is called, three 1945 candidates for city com
missioner had bought time for broadcasts over
WHLS. When the first candidate presented his
script, the station manager read it and decided
that it contained statements which were untrue.
The station manager then canceled the broad
cast. He also canceled the time for the other two
candidates, since he was required by law to make
egqual time: available to alli rival candidates re
questing' it. These two candiates then appealed
to FCC to cancel Ihe station’s Hcense on the grounds
of censorship.
FCC, after waiting three years, set aside the
complaint and renewed the station’s license. Then
the commission went on to say that the law meant
what it said—that there can be no censorship and
no libel in political broadcasts, Radio broadcasts
are interstate commerce, since they can't be stop
ped at state lines.
That was where matters stood wuntil last July,
when the Houston, Texas, Post, operators of sta
tion KPRC, filed a petition in Federal District
Court, asking that the FCC ruling in the Port
Huron case be set aside,
COURT DISMISSED HOUSTON POST CASE .
One of the points raised by lawyers for the Post
was that an action was then pending in San An
tonio, Texas, in which the Alamo Broadcasting
Co., operators of station KABC, were used by V.
E. Berry, candidate for state senator, for making
libelous statements about his past record.
Berry charged specifically that William N.
Hinsley, an announcer for KABC, had broadcast
a statement that “Berry has a police record dating
back to December 20, 1942, at which time he was
coniveted of unlawfully carrying a pistel. Since
that time he has been charged personally with 12
offenses in State Court, including robbery by ¢s
sault with firearms . . . of which he was convicted
June 13, 1934.” Berry said this statement was
untrue.
Attorneys for the geovernment, opposing the
Houston Post suit, argued that evidence in the
San Antonio case should be excluded by the court.
This request was granted on the grounds that a
court can find only on the actual case before it,
net on ancther case in some other court.
The Houston court then dismissed the petition
of the Houston Post, finding that since there was
no action against station KPRC, the court had no
jurisdiction. This left the FCC’s Port Huron ruling
stand just where it was, and it will take another
test case to clarify the matter further.
In the last election, FCC got only a dozen com
plaints that radio stations had not granted candi
dates for public office full time for political broad
casts. Considering that there are now some 2,000
broadcasting stations and many times that num
ber of candidates wanting time on the air, that
record is considered good.

Better Performance, Not Dire
. . . ,
- Warnings, Is Brifain’s Need
During the, British Parliament’s debate
on the bill to, nationalize the steel indus
try, Sir Stafford Cripps uttered a rather
amazing warning. If the bill did not pass.
said the Chancellor of the FExchequer,
“the ugly alternative wopuld then be that
any such change which is to occur must
be brought about by other and ‘more vie
lent means,”
© This set the House of Commons in an
uproar, and Sir Stafford never got to fin
ish. But it mizht be inferred that he was
oftering the House a choice, not between
socialism and private. ¢wnership, but so
cialism and Communist revolution—or at
least some kind of revelution.
All'this is of interest to Americans, we
believe, since it is their money that is pay
ing much of the freight in Britain’s drive
toward . recovery. And if Sir Stafford ig
sincere in his implied warning, then it
seems that this country should know
more ahout it.
Our view of the Enrglish scene is distant
and our knowledge of the complexities of
English social and political life is sketchy.
But we would be inclined to discount Sir
Staffords’ dire prophecy. If Communism
is so strong that socialism is the last bul
wark against the violent seizure of private
vroperty, this alarming state of affairs
has certainly been kept quiet. Y
We would ratber think that the Cripps
statement was a politica! exaggeration to
further a political end. This wouid fit into
the whole history of the Labor Party’s
nationalization program. For the program
is a result of & major pledge in the party’s
successful 1945 campaign.
The situaticn is not the same in the
British steel industry as it was in the Brit
ish mines or transportaticn system. But in
theory they are all of a piece. The theory
holds that basic industries must be state
owned. And the theory is being put into
practice regardless.
Nationalism has evidently worked some
improvements in British mining, particu
larly in a more efficient working of the
veins through climination of private boun
daries, and in the ending of some restric
tive practices by operators. But produc
tion remains inadequate and expensive.
Improvements in mining do not mean
that there will be improvements in steel
production. Perhaps there will be. It does
seem, though, that higher production and
not warnings of revolution should be the
British government’s first consideration in
pushing this major changeover.
There is nothing in the magic word
“nationalization” itself that guarantees
more efficiency and more steel. A social
ized industry will have te pay off in per
formance to justify the disruption it is
almost sure to cause.
The still-threadbare British people de
gerve more than promises. So do the gen
erous American people. America’s posi
tion in all this is delicate. Our govern
ment cannot dictate how—within reason
—Britain is to spend American money
without encroaching on Britich sover
eigntv.
But it does seem that we who are help
ing to foot the bill should either be given
proof that a :socialized steel industry
actually is necessary to prevent violence,
or else a reasonable assurance that our
money is going to advance recovery as
well as achieve a triumph of socialistic
theoryv.

Sinus Drainage and Drugs Are
Usual Treatment of Sinusitis
By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D.
Written for NEA Service
The chief symptoms of sinusitis
sometimes can be relieved simply
by opening the outlet into the
nose in order to allow the pus
and mucus to escape. Injecting
some substance or using packs
which will cause the swelling and
inflamed mucous membrane to
shrink often helps. For this pur
pose several drugs are available,
When the sinuses have become
chronically inflamed, different
methods are often needed. Again,
opening the passageway to allow
for drainage of pus and mucus is
often necessary. Washing out the
sinus through a needle or tube
with various kinds of solutions is
also used. In recent years, some of
the sulfa drugs and penicillin have
been used in solution or powder
form. Not all of the sinuses can be
treated in this way, but two of the
most importantthe maxillary and
the frontal—can be, and occasion
ally others.
; Sometimes Needs Surgery
Sometimes surgery is necessary
to relieve a really bad sinus infec
tion. .In spite .of the medical and
surgical methods that are availa
ble, some people continue to suf
fer so seriously with sinusitis that
they want to knew whether they

would receive relief by living in
a different climate than that in
which they are located. Theoreti
cally, the best climate for a per
son with sinusitis would be one in
which there was little change in
temperature between day and
night—in other words a tempera
ture about 68 to 75—and where
the air was neither too dry nor too
moist, where there was enough
wind to give “life to the air,” but
not too much to carry a lot of ir
ritating substances. Such a climate
is almost impossible to find.
The locations which most close
ly approach it are parts of Flori
da, Southern California or possi
bly Arizona, though the latter has
a good deal of variation between
the temperature of day and night.
Also while its dryness is good for
some people with sinusitis, it seems
to be harmful for others.

State Department
Has No Objection
To UWF-Marshalii
Secretary of State George
Marshall has stated that world
%nvernment will become State
lep;artment policy as soon as our
policy makers become sure the
American public will approve
such a step. This statement was
made by Marshall to Mrs. Spes
sard L. Holland, wife of Florida’'s
junjor senator, according to .in
tormation just received here by
Dr. Robert Levit, prasident of the
Athens World Federalists.
\, In answering questions put by
Mrs. Holland, Marshall stated
that neither military nor State
Department officials have any
objection to UWF proposals to
transform th= UN inte a world
government, but that nothing
lcould be done until there was a
certainty in Washington that
‘such a move was desired and
would ke supported publicly.
Growing vpopular support is
evident, claims Dr. Levit, by the
fact that UWF membership i
the U. S, has increased by 5,000
during the last three months.
Although th 2 movement in Geor
gia started late and has not vet
caught up with many other
stutes, says Levit, membership
and chapters are now multiplying
in the state. Throughout the
world therz are now about 250,-
000 ‘dues-paying members of or
ganizations working for world
government.
i{ Persons wishing to join UWF
of Athens are urged to call
