Seed con- taminated with weed seeds wîll increase cost of production and may lessen for years te corne, the crop yield of the land on which it is sown. Seed ei a variety net adapted te the area, or not suited for the purpose for which it is grown, or seed wlth a low per- centage of germination generally involves loss. For these reasons the sale of home-grown and imported seed for seeding in Canada is subject to the provisions of the Seeds Act which requires that ail seed of- fered for sale should be tested and labelled with the seed grade. This grade is based on purity, germination and general quality, and new varieties must be li- censed before ibeing offered for sale. The object cf the Seeds Act is te enable purchasers te secure seed ef known and suitable quai- ity, te prevent misrepresentation and deception In advertising and sale of seed, te restrict the distri- bution of weed seeds and te pre- vent the importation and sale of feed which is unsuitable either as te quality or variety. Because genetic purity is the main indicator of the value of seed stocks, provision is also made~ for regulating the multiplication and grading of breeding stocks et improved varieties through registened and certified seed. Re- glstered and certified grades ap- ply onlv te seed ef recorded pedi- gree, which bas been tested as te variety. inspected. graded and sealed in the container by an in- spector of the Plant Products Di- vision, Department of Agricul- ture. Ottawa. The overali purpose of the Act is te ensure that seed offered for sale is correctly graded and prop- erly labelled as well as te pro- mote the production and the use of impreved seed stocks.

Around the World Mn. Fonsee then touched on the world audience reached through the International Service of the CBC. Relatively few people in Canada are aware of this ser- vice but it is certainly part of Canadian Radio.

It was net unti1 1942, under the pressure ef war emer- gency, that funds were set aside by the Government and werk wasJ begun on the transmitters. These( transmitters wene completed latei in 1944 and expenîmental servicei began at Christmas of that year.« This first overseas service of the CBC was made up exclusively of messages te our men overseas and bnoadcasts te Germany, France, Holland and Czechoslovakia, de- signed as propaganda te lessen German resistance and te en- courage the democratie elements in eccupied countnies. In Twelve Languages The International Service of the CBC is carried on by the CBC as one of its activities. Funds for this purpose are set aside each year by a panliamentary vote. Ne part of the expense of the Inter- national Service is met eut of the funds pnovided by licence fees for individual neceiving sets in Can- ada. The service has continued te expand until now overseas hroadcasts are being transrnitted in twelve languages - English, French, German, Czech, Slovak, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Dan- ish. Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. Above everything else the In- ternational Service stnives te be a friendly rather than an officiai service. It is helieved this is the best way te xin the confidence of listeners. That belief has been supported in thousands of letters received from overseas. Problems Here Mr. Fonsee then spoke of the voice of Canadian radios as heard at home with the voice, the music, the draina, the "soap opeî-as." the quips, the wisecnacks. -the "good" prograins and the "'ad"-in short, evenyday, aven- age radio fane. "Here in Canada we have a unique problem," Mn. Forsee stat- ed, "with oun seven turne zones." That's almost a 'Believe-It-Or- Not" statement-but, it's a fact. The seven zones are, frein East te West- Newfoundland, Atlantic, Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pa- cific. Yukon. Only six of these are et major importance, since listeners in the Yukon are net yet too concerned about what time a prograrn reaches thein just se long as - they can hear it. (But in the nemaining six zones it's different!) For example-an early evening prognam in Toronto, plan- ned for the early evening aud- ience, if transmitted across Can- ada at, say 8 p.m. E.T. in Toronto, would be heard in Vancouver at 5 p.m. P.T. To avoîd this, it !i recorded in Winnipeg from the original broadcast-beld there for a period etf from 2 te 3 heurs- and then transrnitted te the net- work west of Winnipeg. Bnoadeasting Act Another unique Canadian prob-i lemn in providing a radio service te Canadians is the size et Canada in relation te the population. Tak- ing it frorn East te West, our 14,000,000 population is unevenly spread eut aven a distance of about 3,500 miles - with some areas densely populated-othens very thinly. Today 15,000 miles of land Uines are in use. There- in a nutsbell-is why the CBC exists. This is by now an old stony-but worth repeating. It is the story et the Breadcasting Act et 1936. Here's how youn radie came into being. Back in 1919, broadcasting be- gan in Canada on an expenimental basis. Year after year it grew, and during the original peniod ot its development it became obvieus that, openating on a punely cern- mercial basis, it would enly be available te Canadians in the densely populated areas. First Commission In 1928 there was appointed a Royal Commission on Radio Broadcasting under the late Sir John Aird. This Commission cov- ered Canada and found potential advertising revenue inadequate te finance a national network cover- age. They recommended licence t ees, a nationally owned company and a coast-to-coast network ser- vice. Started by R. B. Bennett 13foefi,,Aines coul bha ,,te upon. 1930 genenal election 'uper- vened. However, by 1932, the new P.M., Rigbt Hon. R. B.Ben- nett. announced the formation of a Parliamentany Committee te censider the tindings et the Aird Commission and te report on the most satisfactory agency for im- plementing the Commission's find- ings. That was in February, 1932. In May, Mn. Bennett intneduced, a bill te establish the C.R.B.C. The Bill was passed. Speaking, on the Bill, Mn. Bennett said:1 "This country must be assured et complete Canadian control of, bnoadcasting from Canadian sour- ces" - and - "Ne other scheme than that ef public ownership can ensune te the people et this coun- try, without regard te class or; place, equal enjoymnent et the benefits and pleasunes et radie broadca st i ng." Mr. Bennett's, statements were endorsed by both the Liberal Opposition and the Free of Control This C.R.B.C. under the late Hector Chanleswortb started the beginnings et a radie system bi Canada and chrystalized the func- tiens et radio. In 1936 a specially appointed Paîliamentary Coin- mittee recpmnmended a public' corporation te control and ce-~ ordinate. lt aise recemmended that it be known as the C.B.C. with a General Manager, Assistant Genenal Manager and a non-part- isan Board of 9 Directors. These recemmendations were put into i an Act and passed by Panliamentl in June. 1936, which became law, in November. Since then the' C.B.C. bas been autonomeus and free et goveriment control. In conclusion Mr. Fonse sai'd that Canadian Radio is deing mre than most people realize. In it, we in Canada have an actual ex- ample of the fat that we con- stantly and censistently under- estimate aur ewn achievements and performances. Truly Canadian Canadian radio, C.B.C. and pni-: vatel ewned, is today rendering a service W te t listeners second te none. Canadian radie is typic- ally Canadian, working bard, de- livering the geods, seekmng always te expand and increase 'its cff ic- lency. It is doing ail this wlth- eut benefit ef constant fanfare and acclaim because, as Canad- ians, we knew we've got what it takes and that, if we stick at it we'll corne out on top as we have in the past and will ini the future. Past President Louis Dippeil, on behalf of the Rotarianh, wives and visitors, thanked Mr. Forsee for his highly entertalning and Linformative addness.
