individual and expressing his own views Mr McDougall is vicepresident of Cuckficld Brown and Company He was one of the founders of The Goblin humorous magazine published in Toronto from 1921 to 1930 until it fell victim of the depression Mr McDougail said there is no doubt that Canadian magazines ara hurt by American magazines with Canadian editions This fact is reflected in lhe current situation where in1959 the advertising revenue earned by the Canadian editions of Time and Readers Digest amounted to sevcntenths of the total revenue of the nine leading truly Cana dian magazines ho said In seeking ways to help Cana dian publicatioru he said one approach might be to apply leg islation similar to that used in the broadcasting field This might result in ruling that in order to publish Cana dian edition and to solicit adver tising for it the magazine must be printed and edited in Canada and its editorial columns must include minimum percentage 55 per cent for example of madian content

magazinescould lower costs of editorial material for publishers and thus increase their competitive power WOULD LIFT warms Any man or group choosing to incorporate magazine publish ing venture as nonprofit cor poration under the Companies Act might be given fleesnailing privileges and taxfree status lhe scheme does not seem to present any serious administra tive difficulties except that it may be impossible to estimate the public cost of the free maih ing privileges suggested Its greatest virtue is that it would probably stimulate small pub lishing ventures and variety and experimentation
