control a change in regulations concern ng opera tiormjj the governmentowned canadian broad casting commission is being haled as a forward t step in our opinion the most forward step would be for the government to step out of the picture altogether and let private companies take over government control of radio and television is ust as wrong as similar control of newspap ers and magazines would be

production budget to be paid from the dominion treasury but we should not delegate a government body to determine completely how we should spend our viewing recreation w th us footing the b ii nor should we allow a system which could too easily become a propaganda media for the government in power learning for the business world we say take heed an education system such as ours is the envy of many countr es a man spends many years at his chosen job and education is some thing which rests lightly on ones shoulders every young person should go as far in high school as his mentality allows a
