IN REPLY TO E.E.M.
The Editor, New Zealand Listener. Sir,-In his letter of July 21 issue E.E.M. makes two __rathe contradictory statements. First he says, "I do not think people as a whole want to know what the din ner music programme is." A- little ‘further on he. says, "I feel that the Broadcasting Service is. paying far too much attention tothe people who do not really listen" Now as one who uses‘radio fou education and enjoyment, and.not as a pleasant background noise, it is a real pleasure to have. music ‘during the dinner séssion most suited to one’s taste. To me personally it gives a mental stimulus for the rest of the evening's pro gramme. And surely the compre hensive programmes. set-out in the "Listener" show clearly that the Broadcasting Service is catering admirably for those who wish to listen intelligently. I. hope radio programmes. will peters) be the meat in the "Lis tener" and pres, matter asi the incidental sauce." Tomes. etc.,
An Appreciative Listener.
Rotorua, July 24, 1939.
