A
A PRETTY KETTLE OF FISH
Little wonder .that CBC directors were
reluctant to divulge some of the financial •
. capers of the Corporation before the House
of Commons broadcasting committee.
Some of the revelations have been lit-
tle short of scandalous, and most embar-
rassing. To the taxpayer it has been a con-
fidence -shaking disclosure at Mr, and Mrs.
Public learn that they have been 'clipping .
down to pay a share of a good many so- •, .,
called sponsored programs --.-- programs
which they may not be the least interested
in, or bother to 'yiew, and in any event
which he naturally believed was bein paid
for by the manufacturer whose pi. 'ducts
were being expounded at every break in
the PrOgram. The revelation is that many
of these sponsors are picking up only a por-
tion of the tab and the CBC (which is Mr.
and Mrs. Taxpayer) 1s paying the shot for
the balance. Already this year, we are told
the CBC has dipped into the public purse
to the tune of about $69 000 000.00.
And the unkindest cut of all is that we •
have unknowingly been footing the bill for
, a certain amount of tripe, under the guise
. ' of culture; to entertain a privileged group.
In commenting on this subject the Port
Elgin Times says that it would be just as ,
logical for those who prefer movies as en-
tertainment to have part of their admission '
charge paid for out of public funds.
Why should TV be subsidized as an
advertising medium. •Either disassociate it
from sponsored programs, or make "it a
,. .
self-supporting enterprise that , has 'to pay
its way. In that way it will be a healthier
andmore soundly founded business, in
which everyone- from the top . executive to
the prop man, will have to pull his weight
In these modern times only/ a few
years elapse between the time a girl stops
playing with teddy bears and starts playing
with wolves. ' ••
GRIM REAPERS HARVEST IS YEAli.
AROUND
The harvest season on Canadian farms
is 52 weeks long for death. Each year
an estimated .1200 farm people are killed,
and over 100,000 are injured rn accidents.
There is a • twist of tragic, irony in the
fact that so many Canadians lose their
lives prOvidjnir the food without which the
country could not live.' " • •
And to make the picture more grim
the Ontario Safety League points out that
the majority of these deaths Are somebody's
fault — and could be prevented. The main
cause of these accidents is ,huMan failure
ignorance and carelessness. '•
Safety organizations across the count-
ry are trying to stop accidents on the farm.
For the second year Canada will join the
U.S. in observing Farm Safety Week, which
has been proclaimed for July 19-25; But
its successwill not be measured by what
happens .. during these seven days, but by
its effect over the year, and the years to
come, as the accident peril is • kept contin-
ually before the public. . •
As group, farmers can wok for safe-
•
ty too. Rural organizations should make
accident prevention a part of their activity.
Many farm groups are planning special pro-
grams during , Farm Safety Week,. and a
number of rural ministers will mention the
special week at church on July 19.
The theme of this year's Farm Safety
Week is, "Safety Makes Sense," Safety
does make sense. Itcould save your lift.
Can't Blame The Bull
A • meeting of parents was called to.
discuss the poor quality of milk being serv-
edin schools. "What this town needs,"
shouted dine mother, "is clean, fresh past-
eurized milk and we must take the bull by
the /horns and demand it:" — (Wolfyille.
N. S., Acadian).
