RADIO PROGRAMMES
Sir. —I would like to endorse the remarks of '"How Long Y ' published in Monday's Hkhai.o. The programmes on the air during Christmas were indeed poor stuff. One wonders what is done with the money subscribed in ices for listeners' licences. It may lie only my imagination but sometimes 1 am sure I can detect a note of apology in the voice of the announcer at IYA when he is forced to inllict something particularly painful. Tho best items, to my wav of thinking, are those recordings of'plavs, etc., which are acknowledged to tiie* 8.8.C. studios. While these are good we do not jzet enough of tlu 111. Surely a Labour Government lias sufficient'sense to see that they should engage officials who have ability to create items of entertainment in our own land and thus give employment to native-born musicians and otheis. Ex-Digger.
