BROADCAST TALKS
MUST HAVE COMMUNITY VALUE By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, September 9. The Government’s attitude on the question of broadcast talks, debates and discussion was defined in a statement by the Prime Minister (Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage). It must be understood that the broadcasting authorities were responsible for all broadcast transmissions, and could not delegate this responsibility to any organisation, said Mr Savage. It has been decided that in only very special cases will talks be broadcast as emanating from particular organisations. Although one-sided propaganda will not be permitted, it is intended to arrange debates and discussions on matters deemed to hive value. Any talks broadcast must be considered on their merits in relation to programme value.
