Fight Looming With FCC Over Give-Away Programs

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25—<ff>— Radio broadcasters today chal­lenged the Federal Communica­tion Commission^ right to crack down on "give-away"- programs— whether they are good or bad.

The National Association of Broadcasters, commenting that it "takes no position on the merit of the prize programs," said the FCC lacks legal authority to set up rules restricting such shows.

If any programs now being broadcast violate the lottery sec­tions of the criminal statutes, said the NAB, it is up to the attorney general and the courts. to take action.

The same legal question was raised last month by a congres­sional committee, which pointed out that a section of the law which formerly gave the commission au­thority to deal with lottery broad casts had been shifted to the crim Inal code during the last session of Congress.

The FCC replied that it planned to go ahead with its proposal un­der its broad authority to lay down rules governing the conduct of radio stations.

The NAB's statement was part of a brief filed for FCC study be­fore final oral arguments open October 19.
