but it was feared many had been
swept into the Mediterranean,

search as darkness covered the
silt and debris left in the 4-mile
long valley. The hunt was to be
resumed at dawn.
Most inhabitants of the once- 1
piettv valley in the midst of the
'Riviera vacaiionland were farm-'
ers and fishermen. A few retired
Bnti'-Ji and Americans lived here.

Payola Reports Demanded
By FCC From Radio-TV
WASHINGTON UP) The Fed
eral Communications Commis
sion demanded yesterday that the
nation’s 5236 radio and TV sta
tions report under oath whether
(they or their employes have ac
cepted secret payments to plug
persons or products.
( The FCC crackdown on payola
i practices came as another agency
—the Federal Trade Commission
—sent investigators to find out
whether some music firms were
breaking the law by paying off
dhe jockeys to push their record
ings
The purpose of the FCC or
der is to track down "sneaky
commercials." as officials pul
if. These are defined as plugs
that are paid for without the
listener or viewer knowing it.
The FCC gave the broadcasting
outlets a month—until Jan. 4 —to
file sworn statements covering op
erations back to Nov. 1, 1958.
Under the FCC directive, sta
tion operators must say what pay
ments or other considerations, if
any, were received by them or
any of their employes for broad
casting material not identified as
paid for.
Also, each station was told
to report what controls it has
set up to make certain manage
ment officials know what pay
ments have been made to em
ployes in program work.
The law governing radio-tele
vision operations requires that all
advertising put on the air on a
paid basis must be identified
clearly as a commercial.
