Ban On "Behind The Headlines"
, ELLIS (Rangiriri): lt was van unfortunate coincidence that the same week as the letter by Mater, suggesting that the ZB stations pay more attention to the "things that matter," was. published in the "Record," the Prime Minister terminated "The History Behind the Headlines" session from 1ZB. This was, in my Opinion, one of the outstanding sessions from any of the .Auckland stations, and it seems to me that the Minister’s reasons, as given inthe daily Press, were. very inadequate. Could nothing be done to have this session reinstated? TRS. EE. WILLIS (Mount | Roskill): You. are aware of the Prime Minister’s action in ‘cutting out "History . Behind the Headlines" presented very ably by Mr. K. Melvin. There is no better exponent of world affairs. Probably you have listened to him. Thousands of listeners are just shocked at the sudden curtailment of such a splendid session.
