'Ilia radio people lay thla VCC In terpretation la wrong. They'll Imht It In court an frdcial Judgra can drrld whn'a rlvhl. And the radln people almost surely will art a court nrdrr permitting: the almwa In continue till thrra Is a court decision. That will be good while alter October I. 11a case revolvea around tills part ot I ha law: There ran be no broadcasting I ""any advertisement of or In formation concerning any lutlrry. gill enterprise, or almllar Behrme, altering prises dependent In whule er In pari upon lol or chance, or any list of the prlaea drawn or awarded by meana of any aurh lottery, gill enterprise, or scheme, whether aald Hal contains any part or all of aurh prises." The rCC aald a radln lottery ! generally one Involving a price awarded aa a result of lot or chance, where the contestant contributes something of value, nr Is required to be listening or viewing the program over a receiver.

The KCU thinks It Is. It believes the time you give to listening. In order to win a prise, la a 'con sideration." The KCC said: Where such a schema Is designed lit Induce members of the public to listen to the program and to be at home available for selection as a winner or (Kisslbte winner, there re sults detrlmrnt to those who are so Induced to listen when they ara under no duty to do so" Thla Interpretation of "considera tion" has never been established In a court, government attorneys say here.
