I make the statement sinâ€" cerely, believing that they deserve praise. They sent men to my home town of Cochrane and to the town 0:® Timmins who accomplished some of the work that our section of the country expected would be done. The fact reâ€" mains, however, that after nearly two years of government supervision, radio programmes in our section are in most cases from American stations, we reâ€" ceive practically ho Canadian programâ€" mes. Generally sueaking we do not object to listening to the American staâ€" tions;.some of them are entertaining, and we are very glad to have them. We cannot lose sight of the fadd however, that we are part and parcel that greater service would be given to a greater number of people, his stateâ€" ment was well received in Noarthern Ontario. In fact, in the first year we did not complain when radio licenses were doubled in price, because we heped then,â€"and we still hope,â€"that we would receive the service we deâ€" a i n iA 0 domâ€" N o â€" o in io € 6 d o in n in n > o c o o o o o o t < in o m to (q n 468987731 uxas‘a..tu..xatsx...s....xsx:xa.!s‘a .. sammm * .x...!xs..!.! .ffSufoNSSSSONNMNSO..NN.IM.MM fNNSN.flm i4 O « Stat "Wet Niet .

S 6. E. i of S. N. E. 4 of S. : distributing station in Northern Onâ€" tarlo which will benefit the whole of cur population. All the territory west of North Bay and extending as far s Sioux Lookout and the Manitoba borâ€" der would be affected. It is possible to have a station on the height of land in the Porcupine district under which â€" circumstances good woukdi be assured to the people in the northern section of the province. How far the government has gone in the matter I d not know. I do know, however, that the minister has received several petitions, and the commission has been informed as to conditions in northern Ontario. I will say further that the commission and the minister have sent very favourable letters to people in my constituency. Up to date, however, that is as far as they have and realize that this problem cannot be solved in a day. The matter has to be thoroughly studied, and the quesâ€" tions concerning the location of the station and the extension of services have to be given careful thought. ‘There is a suggestionâ€"from the Norâ€" thern Tribune of Kapuskasingâ€"that a station be built on the James Bay slope, taking in that section of the north country extending to the Hudson Bay region to the north and the United States border to the south. . I believe, however, that the location of the staâ€" tion should be left to the decision of the commission, after a thorough study of the situation. On the other hand, the people of the Porcupine district state that the logical place for such station is between Sudbury and Timâ€" mins. Then, that section of the counâ€" try so well represented by the Minister of Mines maintain that it should be on the height of land in the vicinity of Haileybury. However, these are mere matters of detail. After careful consideration and anaâ€" lysis the commission will have to deâ€" cide upon the point which would be most satisfactory to all sections of the population. They will have to visit northern Ontario in an official capaâ€" city; they will have to send their exâ€" perts to find for themselves where the men Will} quickly realize that it is not a parochial question, and that the whole of the population in northern Ontario would be in agreement. We mean by that, that so long as the comâ€" mission finds it possible to build a staâ€" tion which would be strong enough and located at a point to give the best serâ€" I believe, Mr. Chairman, that my plea is a very practical one. In our section of the country we only get the Canadian â€" newspapers twentyâ€"four hours after they are printed. Speaking of radio reception I will say that in the daytime we get practically only American programs; we rarely get a Canadian station. Sometimes we get Toronto but seldom do we get it fully. These facts alone should cause this house to realize that although we have a great number of radio owners in our sectionâ€"it may be a revelation to this house that a very great number of settlers have radio sets, helping to make life a little brighter in the rural and colonization sectionsâ€"the service they are getting is not satisfactory. I want to be practical; I am not going to criticize the commission, because I do not think they have yet had time to remedy the situation entirely. They have doubled the radio licence fee, which we gladly pay, but we think it ig time something tangible was done to show the people that the commission is alive to the situation existing in our section. I could quote at great length letters and petitions sent to the minisâ€" ter and the commission as to the anâ€" going to gather strength if during this summer some move is not made for the location of a good station that will give service to our section. I beâ€" lieve the minister is fully seized of the situation, and that the chairman and the commission also realize what we are up against. Fublic ownership of this great utility should be applied on a national scale, no section of the country should be neglected. Even if the department had to spend some money in our section that they have not to spend in the older sections 1 beâ€" lieve it is fully warranted, and cannot be done too soon. The sooner it is made possible for radio owners to have access to Canadian programs, musical straightforward way. This article was published February 9 of this year. It is as follows: hearing some of the wonderful proâ€" grams that come from the south, but I believe that first of all we should have access to Canadian programs. Inorderthstthemimstenmay fully understand the matter I am going to read an editorial from The Porcupine Advance which I believe puts the quesâ€" Mr. Bradette then read an editorial from The Advance, headed "Dces the United States Rule the Waves?" The points in this editorial may be sumâ€" marized as follows:â€"The North Land, has a particularly large proportion of radio owners. These for ten years have received little consideration, but had hopes when the radio commission was plorable. ‘The remedy suggested was a to all the people, we will be satisâ€" THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS, ONTARIO now hog the air, thus tending to a fair and reasonable allctment of air waves. Continuing Mr. Bradette said:â€" ‘ These are all the arguments that I want to put forward in this case. I have much confidence in the chairman of the radio commission, a‘th>ugh I might state that at one time I did not entirely agree with him in regard to the transâ€"Canada highway, and through his newspaper I received a very cavalier answer, asking who I was, because I dared to question some of his stateâ€" ments on that question. Well, I am a Canadian, and a resident of northern Ontario and am proud of the fact. So with all respect to his wonderful qualiâ€" ficationsâ€"because I do not doubt them â€"I hope the present chairman of the radio commission will treat me as a Canadian and not as he treated me in his newspaper on that occasion. I might state that sc far I have reâ€" ceived satisfaction from the commisâ€" sion. Ithink Mr. Charlesworth knows northern Ontario, at any rate the minâ€" ing sections; I ‘believe he has visited that part of the province on several occasions. Therefore he should know our local conditions, and be able to deal with our problem. I believe he is animated by the true Canadian spirit, and will give the sparsely populated sections the same efficient service as the more populous ones. We in that norâ€" thern area are doing a useful pioneer work, binding the country together; ?where formerly there was a great unâ€" populateéd gap between east and west, in the last twenty years nearly 300,000 people â€" have settled there. I hope the department and the radio commission will find it possible to study on the ground the situation that exists so as to get first hand information. number of highâ€"power stations in Canâ€" ads (75000 watts cr more) that would drown out the highâ€"power stations that I know the chairman must have a certain amount 6f qualification for his office or he would not be there. He is an art critic, a man who knows music and what music means to people, knows what a good musical pregramme will mean to people in isolated sections. I hope the minister and the chairman of the radio commission will use all their influence so that in the near future our section will receive the attention it deâ€" serves. I express this hope because I am going to quote now certain words of the present chairman of the radio comâ€" mission in an interview he gave to one of the writers for MacLean‘s Magazine. He wound up his interview in the f3lâ€" lowing way:â€"Censorship, however, is not one of Mr. Charlesworth‘s chief inâ€" terests. He is interested primarily in the upbuilding of a national system of broadcasting, the development of Canâ€" ada‘s musicians and vocalists, in the providing of high class entertainment for radio listeners. Above all, he covets for this country success in that new field, the "théeatre of the air." AL ELE CTRIC Co., LIMITED Successful Firm is a Heavy Advertiser Loerd Luke, Chairman of Board of Bovril Limited, Banks on Newspaper Adâ€" vertising. Shows its Advantage . Addressing the Annual Meeting of Bovril Limited in London recently, Lord Luke, Chairman of the Board, drew particular attention to the fact that, while due economy had been practised in every other department, they had not diminished their advertising. "We consider it of the utmost importance." he said, "to keep our advertising bright and persistent.~" At a time when purâ€" chasing power in many countries is much reduced, a policy of keeping the virtues of our product well in the public eye ‘meets strongly with your Board‘s approval." Bovril is sold and advertised all over the world. â€"~Those in charge of its sales policies therefore have exceptional cpâ€" portunities for gauging the benefits to be derived from consistent advertising. Lord Luke and his associates are emâ€" phatically not of that school who look upon advertising as a regrettable but necessary expense, and who argue that when sales fall off advertising expendiâ€" ture should be cut proportiona@tely. On the contrary they maintain that is the very time when one should maintain and if possible increase one‘s own adâ€" vertising. In other words they believe in capitalizing om a competitor‘s weakâ€" ness andâ€" makinga bold bid for. that portion of his business that has been made vulnerable through his failure to defend it. Lord Luke‘s comments on radio as an advertising medium are interesting in view of the policies that our own Canâ€" adian Radio Commission are now tryâ€" ing to make effective. "We have not utilized this service," says Lord Luke, "and it would take a great deal of persuasion to induce us to do s9. .. The reader of a newspaper does not need to read the advertisements it carries unless he likes. He can keep himself octupied with whichever section of its news columns appeals to him.
