which are separated approximately 30 miles, have used a common frequency with results mutually satisfactory. Santa Monica and Los Angeles Airports have indicated that satisfactory working arrangements could be devised to make common use of a single frequency.
The Civil Aeronautics Authority has suggested, and the Interdepartmental Radio Advisory Committee has approved, the release of the 272 kilocycle frequency for assignment by the Federal Communications Commission for aircraft control purposes at Santa Monica and Los Angeles airports only.
Commissioner Walker hopes that ultra-high frequency for aircraft control purposes may be in general use by March 1, 1942. Accordingly, he recommends that the Commission prepare a report based upon the record made in the Los Angeles hearing, pointing out specifically the necessity for expedition in the development of ultra-high frequency equipment for the purpose of aircraft con¬ trol, and that the use of these frequencies offers the only satis¬ factory solution of the problem of aircraft control in the large centers of the United States.
Meanwhile, the temporary arrangement in the Los Angeles area is expected to be a great improvement over previous condi¬ tions whereby two of the four airports did not have any radio control facilities.

STUDY CF R4.DI0 CRIME DRAIvIAS URGED
Special study of the influence crime dramatization on radio programs may have on crime was proposed to the Federal Bar Association this week by Dr. H. Milton Colvin, Chairman of the Association’s Committee on Criminal Law and Procedure.
"These radio presentations are doubtless well intended", said Dr. Colvin, "but the life of the criminal frequently is made so exciting that some young listeners have difficulty in deciding whether they would rather be the lawbreaker or the detective. '
Dr. Colvin declared he had heard of instances in which criminals admitted adapting methods described on radio programs.
He quoted a recent news story in which a Midwestern police offi¬ cial said he listened to a Nation-wide "crime doesn't paj " radio program each week to find out what new tricks juveniles in his district would be working during the coming week.
The study, if approved, would be made by the Committee on Criminal Law and Procedure.
