He backed arbitration and shifting certain civil matters to other agencies, plus a National Center for State Courts to review and modernize state courts and recordkeeping.

Networks agree to follow FCC prime time guide
Hollywood reports that major networks said they would follow an FCC suggestion to concentrate prime time between 8 and 11 p.m. EST, starting this fall, though waivers allow 7:30 p.m. starts on Sundays for NBC and on Tuesdays for ABC. CBS and NBC indicated they would shift to 7:30 p.m. on certain nights to maintain competitive ratings while CBS affiliates opposed an 8 p.m. start. The move follows FCC rules reducing network time to three hours nightly to boost local and independent production.

FBI denies doghouse charge against agent Shaw
FBI Director J Edgar Hoover rejected claims that the Butter Mont Montana office was a doghouse for agents out of favor. Former agent John F Shaw resigned last fall rather than accept a transfer to Butte after agreeing with a professor that the FBI could be criticized. Shaw alleges punishment, but Hoover said transfers to Butte are never punitive. Mansfield quoted Hoover as indignant at the calumny about Butte, praising it as a good posting with hunting and fishing.
