DAVENTRY BROADCASTS
LONDON PAPER’S REPORT ANTI-BRITISH PROPAGANDA LONDON, Oct. 24. Reynolds News says that with a view to checking anti-British radio propaganda the Government will in future control the Daventry transmitter, using it solely for broadcasting the British viewpoint in English and foreign languages. The paper adds: “This will involve the scrapping of the Empire broadcast service, but the opinion is expressed that the Dominions are now well equipped with their own broadcasting services. The Corporation will have more money for home programmes.” SERVICE TO CONTINUE 8.8. C. DENIES REPORT LONDON, Oct. 24. The British Broadcasting Corporation denies that the Empire service is being scrapped, but adds: “Making use of foreign languages in broadcasts is under consideration between the corporation and the departments concerned.”
