NEW DIRECTOR’S POLICY
♦ RADIO PROGRAMMES STATEMENT IN NEW TEAK PROBABLE Those who were expecting immediate changes in radio programmes would bo disappointed, said Professor Shelley, in an interview yesterday. . He was not concerned at the moment. he said, with giving the public a little more or a little less of Eb and Zeb. When the fundamental changes he was planning were given effect to the programmes would right themselves as a matter of course. Professor Shelley would not give any details of the scheme he has in preparation. A statement might be expected early in the new year, he said. His proposals had first to be considered by the Cabinet. Asked if New Zealand was going to lead the world in radio broadcasting as it had in social legislation, Professor Shelley replied with a laugh that he hoped so. New Zealand was already very much better served than many other countries. Although the studios here were not at all as they should be they v/ere much better than those in Australia and Canada’s small powered stations would not bear comparison with our own powerful ones.
