PLAYS V. WOOL PRICES
~ Sir,-In, looking through the programme announcements for 4YA on March 12, I noticed that the item "Star for To-night" was. due to start at 9.30 pm. Being very interested in drama, and especially in the Dorothy Crawford productions, I was amazed when somebody started, talking about the price of wool at this time. This talk went on for 18 minutes-an encroachment on the scheduled time of another item. f Surely there are not many people who want to hear wool prices in the evenings when they can always read them in the next day’s daily paper, but there are hundreds of listeners who enjoy hearing plays and who do not want to miss them because they are put on too late. If the Wool Sale prices are so very important to the listeners, why not put them over the air after the news session at 6.30 p.m., when most people are in their own homes and leave the rest of the evening programme to those who enjoy relaxation?
