HARRIS Reminds Agency Its Power Is Limited Little Rock, Sept. 7 (LTD Chairman Oren Harris Ark. of the House com merce committee today assailed a Federal Communications commission policy directive designed to assure "fairness" in broadcast coverage of segregation controversies Harris said he felt that in recent months the FCC "may have forgotten" its own important principle of allowing radio and television stations to decide for themselves how to serve the public interest in their communities.

He said the "fairness" directive and several other recent policy decisions by the FCC seemed to be examples of a new commission attitude. "I regret this attitude and I hope this trend will not continue," Harris said. He Wields Authority Harris' comments on the FCC were made in a speech prepared for delivery here to a meeting of the Arkansas Broad-casters association. In his capacity as chairman of the commerce committee Harris wields considerable authority in dealing with the FCC. His committee also oversees the entire broadcasting industry.

In addition to attacking the commission's pronouncement on applying the so-called "general fairness doctrine" to racial disputes, Harris also chastised the FCC for: l. Proposing a rule to limit the number and length of radio and television commercials. Issues Public Notice 2. A proposed ban on trans mitting horse racing informa- tion. 3.

The association, which is the license for WTTW, channel 11, recently received a grant of $299,619 thru the department of health, education, and welfare in Washington to operate the channel under the education facilities act of 1962. The grant is contingent upon an approval by the Federal Communications commission of a construction permit, expected use of his facilities for the presentation of views regarding an issue of current importance such as racial segregation, integration, or discrimination, or any other issue of pub lic importance, he must offer spokesmen for other responsi ble groups within the community similar opportunities for the expression of the contrasting viewpoints of their respective groups."

"Contrary to Policy" "If the commission, in an attempt to achieve fairness, seeks to apply its 'fairness doctrine' to the content of individual programs involving the discussion of issues to public importance, then contrary to the policy of the act. the commission inevitably will inject itself into programming on a day-to-day basis," Harris said.
