RADIO CUTS
Sir,-May I make a plea on behalf of the many people to whom the radio is almost their sole source of entertainment and relaxation? I refer to the many country listeners, the people without cars to bring them to town, the old folk, and the countless mothers who cannot leave their families. In my own district I can have only 3% of the broadcasting hours, one.of which-in the morningI never listen to, being too busy, The possibility of further cuts, therefore, is not to be borne unless all theatre matinees are prohibited from Monday to Friday, inclusive, and. night hours are restricted to two-8-10 p.m. This could be done by cutting out a few "supports,"
I think I am speaking for many people when I demand a cut in the theatre programmes before any additional cuts in broadcasting are proceeded with.
