Dewey For Lifting
FCC Censor Right
Over Broadcasts
MEDFORD POST IS
CITED BY STATE
LI
Washington, Sept. 12 (U.R)
Gov. Thomas K. Dewey, the re
publican nominee, said today
the Federal Communications
commission should have no
right of radio censorship or con
trol over broadcast content, and
urged a new radio law to re
strict FCC to regulation of
"technical facilities."
In a copyrighted interview In
"Broadcasting" magazine,
Dewey said he was opposed to
federal ownership, control or
operation of radio stations say
ing "the government no more
belongs in this field than in the
field of the newspaper or mag
azine." "I believe that the FCC
should have no right of censor
ship, that it should not control
the content of radio programs,"
he said. "When the FCC st.vts
to control program content, free
radio goes out the window."
The FCC, headed by Chair
man James Lawrence Fly, has
long been a target of republi
cans in congress.

Bar Resolution
Takes Swing at
New Deal Judges
Chicago, Sept. 12, (U.R) The
annual conference of the Ameri
can Bar association today had un
der consideration a resolution
charging that supreme court de
cisions "reflect tho governmen
tal philosophy and political pur
pose of the administration by
which Its judges were appointed
and of which many of them re
cently wcis a part."
The rcso,ition, presented last
night by J. Cleo Thompson, Dal
las attorney, charged that the
court "has repeatedly overruled
decisions, precedents and ignores
landmarks of the law of long
standing."
"By disregarding these prin
ciples," tho resolution declared,
"tho supreme court has created
such a state of uncertainty as to
what the law is that it was ren
dered impossible for even the
practicing lawyer to advise his
clients as to whnt the law Is to
day or even to offer a guess as to
what it will be tomorrow."
PRESS-WAITS-PEACE
London, Sept. 12. (U.R) Nor
way will re-establish a free
press as soon as military cen
sorship is lifted, Trygve Lie,
Norwegian foreign minister, to
day assured Hugh Baillie, prcsi-1
dent of the United Press.
Medford Post No. 15 of The
American Legion was recently
awarded a Certificate of Dis
tinguished Service for 1944 by
State Department Commander
D. M. McDade and duly attest
ed by Department adjutant
Fritz Nissen, formerly of Med
ford, at state department head
quarters In Portland. The cita
tion is for "faithfulness in the
performance of duty, for loyal
cooperation and for meritorious
achievement, and for a member
ship surpassing the assigned
quota of the state department."
The 1944 post commander was
Walter J. Reinking, and the post
adjutant was Fred L. Strang.
New post officers for 1945
with Harry A. Young as com
mander and Chas. D. Wiley as
adjutant, take over with their
first meeting the evening of
Sept. 27 at the armory. At this
meeting Commander Young will
announce his standing commit
tee appointments.
Medford Post Legion records
show that A. J. Anderson at the
coming meeting of Medford
Post is starting his 19th year as
post chaplain, as he took over
the duties of this office in Jan
uary, 1920. In a recent edition
of The Oregon Legionnaire,
Horace Bromley, formerly of
Medford and now a resident of
Salem, states that " 'Andy' An
derson was reelected chaplain
of the Medford post for the 20th
year or thereabouts, and while
his memory fails him on the ex
act number, he is positive that
his record exceeds even that of
Franklin Delano Believe it or
not."
There will be no post meet
ing this Wednesday night as
previously scheduled. First
meeting of the fall season will
be Sept. 27, when the Legion
and auxiliary will have joint
Installation of officers, with

their monopoly hold on film dis

Impossible, Berge continued, few
independent theaters to get pic
tures on equal terms with producer-owned
houses.
Switching to the railroad sit
