(AP) A new ystem ol iiw broadcast Ing, design ed to give radio station the benefit ol a carefully aelected and edited re sume of the events of the day and at the same time to protect newspapers from unauthorized use of their news, went into effect throughout the Unit ed States today. The plan, worked out by publish ers, representatives of press associa tions and of broadcasting organiza tions, calls for two five-minute news broadcasts, not earlier than 0:30 a. m. and 9 p. ni., standard time in the city in which the broadcasting station Is located. Each broudcast will be for a period of five minutes and will con sist of the cream of the news gath ered by the Aioclatwl press, the United Press and the International News Service, the 'three largest press association. Ail Eligible Every broadcasting station In the country is eligible to participate in the dissemination of the news report under the plan worked out by the press-radio bureau of the publishers' national radio committee. This bu reau, with .headquarters In New York and with James W. Barrett, experi enced newspaperman, In charge, was i organized by the publishers, broad casters and press associations. To the bureau and to the broad- casting of news each of the three element is making a contribution. Each of the three press associations gives a copy of its report; the pub lishers consent to the broadcasting of news which belongs to them and their wire services, and, the broadcast' lng stations pay the expense of open atlng the bureau and of distributing the news among themselves. The bu reau Is to be operated on a co-opera tive basis, the expenses, allotted among the stations participating. Bureau Selects Items The bureau, under Barrett's direc tion, will select from the whole port of the three associations the most Important and interesting news and condense It Into a report suit able for a five minute broadcast. The broadcast In the morning is to be made up of news distributed to mor ning papers, and the night broadcast from news sent to afternoon papers. In addition to the two regularly scheduled broadcasts, the bureau will provide the participating stations with brief bulletins not over thirty words each on outstanding events. These may be broadcast at any time, and will be, In effect, an "extra" edi tion or the radio news program. The type of news to be handled In this manner Is the sort published In extra editions of newspapers. The news to be broadcast will be sent to the National Broadcasting company and the Columbia Broad casting system over automatic tele graph machines. To other stations it will be sent tolls collect by commer cial telegraph at press rates. The whole plan was designed to eliminate the confusion and contro versies Involving publishers and broadcasters and marks the first ef fort to put radio news on an organ ised basis In the United States.

WASHINGTON, March 1. (AP) A litter of spurious $0 and $10 notes Is keeping the secret service on the Jump from coast to coast. A sharp upsweep of counterfeiting In general and these notes In par ticular was reported to be approach lng record figures. Reliable figures show activities In the 1034 fiscal year thus far have hurpassed 1033's record of 3003 ar rests and $021,409 in fake currency .seized. Mostly Convicted. White-haired William H. Moran, the secret service chief who has spent llfo-tlme tracking down counter feiters, says 80 per cent of these ar. rcjtts will result In convictions. He explains the recent big increase In private money-makCng as due, among other things, to: Out-of-work bootleggers; the com parative ease of manufacturing crude Imitation money by photographic methods; hard times and the availa bility of the automobile for "push ing" the money In small towns and passing swiftly on. Moran maintains emphatically, however, that the delicate microsco pic art found on United States paper money never has been exactly repro duced, and he want the public to know it. Modern Work Crude. Modern counterfeiting, he holds, generally is even cruder than the old and can be easily spotted. . Years back counterfeiting gangs usually had an expert engraver. To day, most of those seeking to com pete with lawful money employ cameras and photographic equip ment, Moran has figures to show ' that the counterfeiter seldom gets very far. Of the annual fake-money seizures, half usually gets Into cir culation and the other half Is taken at the arrest. On this basis busi ness paid a counterfeiting tax of $460,000 In the ;933 fiscal year.
