The Sacred Radio Trust
Anderson, Paul Y. | December 18, 1929 issue

A first-class scandal is brewing here in connection with the failure of U.S. federal functionaries to take steps to enforce the anti-monopoly laws against the Radio Corp. of America and its parent and subsidiary companies. It may break out during the communications hearings now being conducted by the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. The Radio Act contains a mandatory provision directing the federal Radio Commission to refuse broadcasting or communication licenses to any company, or its subsidiaries, which has been finally adjudged guilty by a federal court of using unfair methods of competition, or of violating the antimonopoly clauses of the Clayton Act.
