Taken at Their Word

HEN the General Manager of the Broadcasting Company, Mr. A. R.. Harris, decided to communicate ‘with all license holders and to invite them to visit the studios, he little thought that the response would be so gratifying. Not only applications for passes have rolled in, but letters have been received in shoals. It is the consideration of the letters that has been specially interesting. The communication from the company caused many people to write when they otherwise would not have bothered. Letters accompanied many of the applications for passes. These letters almost invariably spoke in high praise of the service by the R.B.C, A few, 4 very few, were otherwisee The general trend of the letters, combined with the very satisfactory way in which renewals are reported to be coming in, is distinctly encouraging to the company, and will stimulate it to even greater efforts. The reaction of the Broadcasting Company to the response by the public is no doubt evident in the decision to extend the hours of 2YA and 4YA, and further developments are hinted at. a)
