further proceedings the cases which were the subject of the above appeals taken by WLTH and WARD with the stipulation that "The Com¬ mission and the other parties in interest agree that the status quo will remain until the Commission has acted on the remand. w
Based upon the foregoing the Commission on October 27, 1938, ordered temporary licenses be issued to WLTH and WARD for their continued operation, and on the same date set aside its order of June 29, 1937, insofar only as the same denied the appli¬ cations of WLTH and WARD for renewal of licenses and granted in part the application of WBBC for modification of license to utilize the time of WLTH and WARD. The Commission* s order of October 27, 1938, also set aside the Statement of Facts and Decision of June 29, 1937, insofar as the same denied the renewal applications of WLTH and WARD and granted the application of WBBC for the operating time of WLTH andWARD. The Commission’s reconsideration of this record has been limited to the evidence which relates to the applications of WLTH, WARD and WBBC.
In its grounds for decision the Commission concludes:
1. The broadcasting service rendered the public by Stations WLTH and WARD has been of the same general character and quality as the service rendered by Station WBBC and there is, in fact, no sub¬ stantial distinction in the merits of the services of these three stations.
2. The licensees of Stations WLTH and WARD are qualified legally, technically, financially, and otherwise to operate their respective stations on the limited basis of a time-sharing station.
3. The granting of the application of WBBC for modification of license insofar as said application request authority to operate during the hours used by WLTH and the hours used by WARD would not serve public interest, convenience and necessity.
The order in this case will become effective Oct. 22,1940.
