Much of the Brief dealt new regulation giving Chi Power to regulate the Canadia Content of programs. The regulation is in line with recommendation of the Masse commission on arts letters an science. The commission recon broadcasters employ More Cana Dian against imports the commission described the programs of some private station As regrettable and criticized the widespread use of imported re corded programs. The new regulation proposed tha n centres of or More stations on the Csc trans Canada and French networks devote .48 be cent of their time Between 8 a. M and 11 p. M. To Canadian program stations on the Dominion network 43 per cent and non affiliated Sta ions 40 per cent.

Seeks revision the regulation of advertising now reads no station shall broadcast any advertising Content in the body o a news in their Brief the .

Said the regulation Appeal s to show disregard for he position of the Church in the life it added we believe the churches o Canada should be included amongst those who have the High to Appeal for funds both for missionary work and for their activities in any Canadian Community moreover we believe that the Church should be Able to speak to the consciences of its Mem Bers not by permission of the state but by the.

Writing by a representative o the corporation the . Said the regulation was an attempt at thought control by telling canadians what Anc whom they May and May no political broadcasts dramatized political broadcast Are banned. The broadcasters said that the existing controls prevent More than the presentation of Anonymous characters simulation or purely theatrical devices.

It added we believe that careful redraft ing would preserve the True intent of these sections of the act and controls made thereunder without preventing the presentation of political news information and views in an attractive Csc regulations now ban spot announcements sundays and be tween . And 11 . Week Days. The advertising Content is not supposed to exceed in time 10 per cent of any program period. The Csc proposes to lift the ban on spot advertisements sundays and evenings. Instead spot announcements would be limited to four and to three minutes in any 15-minute period. Blow to stations the . Said the regulation would cripple the usefulness of broadcasting stations As a Community it would bar broadcasting facilities to Many smaller it would set the rates in practice for broadcasting stations thus accomplishing indirectly what Csc does not have Legal Power to do the association suggested the regulation be redrafted to permit daily or weekly averaging of spot announcements. The Brief added that stations carry numerous spot or Flash announcements on behalf of Charit Able religious welfare and Public service projects As Well As Many service announcements at the re quest of police departments and other Public authorities. Frequently emergency Condi ions such As storms or break Downs in Public utilities require stations to carry numerous announcements designed not Only for he convenience of the Community but in Many cases to save property and lives. Obviously cannot per form these functions if a specific ceiling is clamped on the number of such announcements they could carry in a Quarter hour period. Storms will not always come when the station happens to have a 15 minute period with no announce ments in it. By limiting to a specific nun her the Quantity of announcements to be carried in a Given period the Csc is controlling station revenues and therefore controlling station rates. Since the Csc has no Power under the broadcasting act to do this we believe this indirect attempt to achieve the same end is Bonn Leader fears tetters in West pacts by Gaston Coblentz Bonn Mai or president of the upper House of the West German parliament the expressed Strong thursday night at proceeding with ratification of the Western european army treaty and the Bonn peace contracts.
