study the financial structure of a.

It was something of a surprise be
cause the R.C.A. structure did not
seem to need much studying. Also
because capable Mr. Kennedy's line
has been more promotional than
structural. At least it was before he
entered and left the chairmanship of
the securities and exchange commis

and as radio broadcasting is a tick'
lish political business, those inside
the trade have been nodding their
heads knowingly aver since. They sus
pect Mr. Roosevelt may have arrang

happy radio New Year for himself,
What bolsters this conclusion is the
Inside background of White House

Mr. Roosevelt's pals have always
had a feeling that NBC (subsidiary of
R.C.A.) was less favorable to him

may have been insufficient reason for
the feeling, but it existed,

ASHLAND RUMPUS
FLARES UP AS 2
COltlff QUIT
The Ashland recorder rumpus
took a new and dden twist to
day with the filing of resignations
from tl city council by Gerald H.
Wenner and Guy Applewhil, mem
bers of the finance committee.
While no official statement was
Issued, The Mail Tribune Jearnea
that the two council men had ten
dered their resignations to Mayor
T. S. Wiley, It was understood the
resignations would be acted upon
at the next meeting of the cuy
council on January 1,
The Ashland municipal dispute
has been brewing for months and
recently came to a head when
public hearing was held before Use
council of charges of carelessness ;
and negligence against J, Q. Adams,
recorder. After lour acrimonious ses
sions the council Toted four to two
against motion to dismiss the
charges.
During ihe hearing Mr, Adams
contended he had been ;rrased in
fulfilling his duties by Mr, Wenner,
A recall movement was hinted
against members of the council's ;
finance committee which Mr, Adams
indicated was the source of much
of his trouble. Mr, Wenner, Mr,
Applewhite and L, H, Hansen,
member of the finance committee,
were mentioned as targets of the
recall election. Mr, Hansen has been
sick.
When the council refused to dss-1
miss the charges against Mr, Adams 1
it was considered likely the quea-;
tion would be put up to the pub!
He in a referendum ejection, but j
the legality of such procedure was1
challenged and Prank J, Van Dyke,
city attorney, was asked for a ruling.
Although Mr, Van Dyke declined
today to comment on the case in
any respect, it was learned that he
has ruled that the question of Mr.
Adams status may be referred to
the people only for an advisory
rote. In other words, the roter
may decide m a referendum whether
Mr. Adams should be retained or
discharged as recorder, but their de
cision would not be binding upon
the council. It was considered likely,
howerer, that the council would
rote in accordance with the refer
endum outcome.
An attempt was recently made by
a group of taxpayers to initiate re
call proceedings, but It Is believed
by Ashland obserrers th plan has
been abandoned for the time being,
