MORE NEWS, PLEASE!
Sir.-Would it be possible for the main national stations to feature a news session some time during the evening? I_ask this in all seriousness. On a recent ‘Tuesday, what was scheduled as a news session from 3YA comprised the following: (1) A talk on New Zealand’s Industrial War Effort. (2) A talk on War Loans by a Treasury Official. (3) A Salvation Army Appeal. (4) A Stock Exchange Report. (5) A Book Review. Can this be called a news session? In this locality there are several of us who get our newspapers only once a week. No doubt there are hundreds, probably thousands, of others similarly situated throughout New Zealand. As about 90 per cent. of programmes js taken up with music, I don’t think it would be any hardship 6n anyone to cut this down a little and put on a news
session.
