THE PRINCE’S SPEECH.
“ Should be Published,” says Mr Archer. “If I said we don't want to hear the Prince of Wales’s broadcast speech it would possibly be sacrilege or a seditious statement,” said the Rev J. K. Archer, Deputy-Mayor, speaking at the annual meeting of members of the Addington Library, last evening, “ but I want to say we all would like to hear him, and the message he will give us. That can t be done because everybody does not happen to have a listening-in set. I understand that the newspapers are not allowed to publish the message he will send over the air, because of certain radio rights. This is not a political question, but one of citizenship, and some protest should be made.” Mr Archer -said he did not hold any shares in a newspaper, and did not have any interest in any newspaper company, but surely after the message his Royal Highness had to give had come over th e air the newspapers should be allowed to publish it.
