He explained why frequency numbers were assigned tions, a and how the sound was transmitted and the cause of noise and fading on receiving sets.

Among other things mentioned in his talk was the fact that a message had been sent around the world in four seconds and that with the rebroadcasting stations, television would be perfected within five years.

Bearor, 21, Fairfax, paid a $25 fine and costs of $7.70 for operating a car with no license, and a $25 fine for operan unassigned plates. Supreme Court Continued From Page One The concern denied the profits were excessive and attacked the renegotiation law on 13 constitutional grounds. It said the act unlawfully delegates legislative power to the war contracts price adjustment board, deprives the firm of property without due process of law, and contains no standard for determining what constitutes cess profit. The government has recovered many millions of dollars under the renegotiation law. It provides for reconsideration of the price charged on war orders after the contractor's profits can be checked.

Settles Worker-Employe Issue Another court ruling set a dividing line between workers who are "employes" for purposes of social security taxation and those who are not. It depends, the court held, on how much control the men have over their own work and whether they can be more successful through independent judgment and initiative. court held 5-4 that truckers working for the Albert Silk Coal Company, a Topeka, retail dealer, were independent contractors. The majority opinion by Justice Reed noted that they furnished their own equipment, paid their helpers, could turn down hauls they did not want, were paid by the ton, and worked when they ed. Coal unloaders who merely furnished their own services and hand tools in moving fuel from cars to Silk's bins were rated as employes.

even though they too were paid by the ton and worked only when they chose. In the same opinion the court held that truck owners working une der exclusive contracts for Greyvan Lines on a division of gross revenues also are contractors and not employes.
