Richards Investigation
The American Jewish COn-
gress and the Jewish Commun-
ity Councils for Cleveland, De-
troit and Los Angeles have an-
nounced the filing of a joint
brief with the Federal Commun-
ications in Washington uphold-
ing its jurisdiction to investi-
gate charges that a radio sta-
tion owner had ordered the
slanting of news broadcasts
against Jews.
G. A. Richards, owner of sta-
tions WGAR, WJR and K_MPC,
located in Cleveland, Detroit
and Los Angeles, had previously
filed a motion with the Corn-
mision challenging its authority
to investigate such charges.
"The free communication of
ideas," declares the brief of the
Jewish organizations, "is sub-
verted when radio is monopo-
lized by those who seek by the
slanting of news and the broad-
casting of fraudulent news re-
ports to stir up racial and re-
ligious • hatreds." The brief con-
tends that the Federal Com-
munications Commission has
power to investigate the pro-
gram policy, program service
and qualifications of an appli-
cant in order to apply the
standard of public interest, con-
venience and necessity which
must be satisfied before a radio
