VLA observations have been made of the continuum emission at 20-cm from the barred spiral galaxy NGC 4314 with an angular resolution of 3.5 arcseconds that corresponds to a linear scale of approximately 156 pc at a distance to the galaxy. This resolution was sufficient to resolve the central region into several compact sources. The radiation is linearly polarized which may indicate a non-thermal origin. No emission was detected from the extended bar to a level of 130 Jy.
