GREATEST FEAR When we parents really wake up, our greatest fear will be that crime - mysteries and Westerns will now increase and our chil- dren will spend more hours view- ing programs of violence. With attention orbiting around the hoaxes of quiz programs, the pub- ic will be ready to accept more TV violence. And since the rating of this kind of program is usuallv high, broadcasting companies will be tempted to displace quiz pro- grams with more crime and vi- olence Instead we wish they would put on more good programs worthy of their opportunity and responsi- bility. AMAZING STATEMENTS Let's remember this amazing statement made recently by Dr. Stanton of CBS before a congres- sional investigating committee: "I don't think we are giving the public a diet of violence." And this by Dr. Sarnoff of NBC, a few months earlier "In the light of total network programming, T don't know that there's too much crime and vi- olence."
