GOVERNMENT OWNS RADIO IN" EUROPE=SE= 2 monthly by Program Rights Conceded to plies to each p Private Organizations, Observers Report. BY MARTIN CODEL. Central Europe's broadcasting systems, | strategically situated to serve radio pro- | grams heard over the whole of Europe, are reconciling government ownership with private enterpr‘l.se by conceding the program rights to pnv-u organi- zations. Such is the situation in Germany, as reported yesterday by Gerald C. Gross, engineer of the Federal Radio Commis- sion, who returned from Europe re- cently. A similar plan of operation is currently reported from Czechoslovakia by the American consul general at Prague, Arthur C. Frost. ‘With Canada apparently making ready to nationalize its broad structure, comparisons with that of the United States, which is entirely in pri- vate hands, will inevitably occupy & great amount of interest in ensuing years.
