|T is common to be told that the Fnited States leads the world in broadcasting. The following remarks by Mr. E. K. Cohan, chief engineer of the Columbia Broadcasting System (U.8.A.), as reported by the New York Times, are therefore interesting. “In radio development the United States and England are about on u par," said Mr. Cohan. “England’s problem, of course, is simpler geographically and financially, because in the British Isles the taxpayer finances broadcasting, and lie will do the same with television.
