The argument between the Canadian Broadcasting
Qorp(,)ration and the private radio station owners in Can-
ada regarding the government radio and television mon-
opoly, has now reaehed the stage where the private owners
are apparently hesitant to argue. The Canadian Associa-
tion of Broadcasters, which represents the private station
operators. has of late taken a more conciliatory attitude
towards government encroaehment on the television field,
and there are some who believe this is due to the high-
handed way in which the government is doling out licenses
for private TV stations.
The idea seems to be that if no one says anything to
offend the government, private licenses for TV will be
handed out iii the usual course of events. But let anyone
:annoy the government with too much criticism of its mon-
opolistic radio and TV policies, and they may find it rather
difficult to get a license. That, at least, is the assumption
in some quarters.
In any case the Canadian Association of Broadcasters
leas, for the time being at least, so ft -pedalled its criticism
of the CBC, and their soft-pedalling has left a rather pe-
culiar situation.
Not so long ago the executive of the Canadian Week-
ly Newspapers Association presented a vigorous brief to
the- government, criticising the CBC for its monopolistic
tendencies in radio and TV, and urging that a broader ttttt l 11111111.! iiiiii
policy be instituted, which would give more scope to pri-
vate TV in Canada. Instead of being* thankful for help
from the weekly newspapers, the CAB seemed to feel that

dollar. Since the CBC has not been aggressive in a-oina. past the cemeteries in Ieeswater and .
out after sponsors the dailies feel that, as far as they are
concerned, perhaps a CBC monopoly isn't so bad, dollar-
wise.
All of which seems to leave the weekly newspapers a
voice crying in the wilderness against the CBC. Perhaps
they may be credited with a little more foresight than has
been evidenced in other quarters. For it is not beyond the
