Antitrust Probe Targets TV Industry With Broad Inquiry
Washington officials announce a wide federal antitrust investigation into the television field. Assistant Attorney General Michor R. Hansen says the effort, begun in 1933 and expanding over years, will continue until free and open competition is achieved. The probe examines must buy policies, block booking, and whether networks force licenses or compel bundled film packages from distributors. Five firms including RKO, Columbia, Warner, and United Artists are named defendants in related actions seeking injunctions to allow picture-by-picture licensing.

Judge orders return of money found on Scott in belt
In Detroit federal court Judge Theodore Levin ordered the return of $100 of the $1,400 found on L. Ewing Scott in a money belt. Scott paid his attorney Gabriel Cohn and then agreed to take $1,800 as a reasonable amount for legal expenses. Bond set at $100,000, but Cohn argued that figure was unaffordable. U S Atty Woods noted the government seeks funds from Scott’s past year to aid the fugitive case. Scott, a self-styled Los Angeles investment broker, is charged with murdering his wife Evelyn Throsby Scott and fleeing California. He plans to fight extradition.
