To Look at Licenses The FCC also will take a hard new look at its policies on granting radio and tele vision station licenses to make sure they are "adequate in view of the changed and changing - conditions in the broadcast industry."

The agency will hire addi tional staff members and otherwise expediate the in quiry, which stemmed from the recent congressional in vestigation of rigged quiz pro grams. This is the fourth investiga tion of radio-TV practices. In addition to the congressional hearings, which next will con sider alleged bribes to disc jockeys, the Federal Trade commission has started a crackdown on false and mis leading commercials and the Justice Department is looking into the legal . questions in volved in rigged quiz pro grams and other fraudulent practices.
