Director-General of B.B.C. Comments on N.Z. Radio

» Letter to Editor of "Radio Record" ai

Some weeks:ago. the "New Zea‘land Radio Record" published an illustration showing the programe plan of the New Zealand Broadcasting Board. A copy of the paper was sent to. Sir John Reith, Director-General of the British . Broadcasting ‘Corporation, who has forwarded the following comment to the Editor of the "Radio Record": The National programme plan recently published by the New Zealand Broadcasting Board is,

. obviously, extremely comprehensive in its scope. The problems to be met in providing.a broadcasting service in the far-distant Dominion of New ZeaJand are different from those which face us.in the home coun‘try; and I have no doubt that this programme plan has been designed with special regard to the circumstances and difhculties which exist in the Dominion.
