EIGHT FOURTH ZONE STATIONS ASK 50 KW Representatives of about 18 broadcasting stations, 8 of then applicants for permission to use 50 KW power, were present in the hearing room of the Federal Radio Commission when the Fourth Zone hearings were opened this (Monday) morning. The applicant stations are WCFL, WHO-WOC, WCOO, WMAQ, WBBM-WJBT, KFAB , WTMJ, and WGN-WLIB. Through arrangement with WCFL and WHO, WCCO was allowed to take the stand first. Represented by William J, Donovan, B. M. Webster, and Paul Segal, WCCO called Henry A, Bellows, former Federal Radio Commissioner and now director of the station, as the first witness, Mr. Bellows declared that he did not see any reason why any cleared channel station should not be allowed to use 50 kw power .but that he thought each station should be considered individually, then granted the maximum power if it was merited. After an argument between several of the lawyers present, KSTP, St. Paul, was allowed to cross-examine Mr, Bellows and other WCCO witnesses, even though it had not received notice of the hear¬ ing, or made any provision for being there, with Examiner Ellis A. Yost reserving the decision on whether or not this cross-examina¬ tion would be admitted as part of the record, X X X X X X X KAUER JOINS INDUSTRIAL TOUR Ernest Kauer, President of the CeCo Manufacturing Co. , is accompanying the group of New England business men who helped to make up the party of industrialists, executives and bankers who on October 7th will begin a tour of important research laboratories in the East and Middle West.
