“FOR PROPAGANDA”
NEW RADIO STATION ABSURD GOVERNMENT ACTION CHAMBER OF COMMERCE VIEW “There is not the slightest doubt that this is a station for propaganda.” said Mr C. W. Pepperell, president of the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, when strong criticism was made at an executive committee meeting yesterday afternoon of the Government’s action in spending £70,000 on a radio station at Auckland. “It does not seem to matter to the Government if we are short of this and short of that, as long as they get their propaganda over,” he added. “It is just one of the absurd actions that they have adopted recently. This country most certainly cannot afford £70,000 for a ‘hot air’ station.”
