...denounces the FCC as "the lap dog of the broadcasting industry." The commission, however, is caught between the courts and the Congress. There is strong support for Rhode Island Democrat John Pastore's Senate bill to force the commission to grant licenses in near perpetuity. The measure would forbid the FCC from considering TV-license applications by anybody but the existing holder, unless he has already been denied a renewal.

In my limited experience, it is precisely such decisions that women...
...cost of all the gewgaws and gimmickry that dealers must buy from the oil companies. The prices are set high, so that the dealers will not be tempted to rip open all the envelopes and simply collect the winnings. The federal commission is divided on whether to forbid the games or to regulate them more stringently; it is expected to reach a decision next month...
