CONTROL OF RADIO
! It is gratifying to have an emphatic denial by the Postmaster-Gen-eral of the statement that five years' extension of the existing system of broadcasting control .had been decided on. Such a decision would, ! indeed, have been inexplicable witli a Bill still before Parliament for the alteration of the system. A new Government must, of course, have i the opportunity of reviewing the posijlion before proceeding with the 'measure. Listeners recognise that; I but their recognition and their abstention from pressure on a Government which has other urgent problems before it, is not to be viewed as lack of interest or as readiness to accept five years more company control. The opinion in favour of, corporation control remains as strong1 as ever. Though it is not being pressed home at an inopportune time,it cannot be disregarded.
