Increased at- tention to things educational seems to be the salient trend in program ma- terial, he says. “In my opinion this is one of the most important uses to which a broad- casting station can dedicate Wtselto he | “Of course, the pmgm hould not be ‘too heavy’ mor should too much time be devoted to ‘timely Prompt relief from HEADACHES, SORE THROAT, LUMBAGO, RHEUMATISM, NEURITIS, NEURALGIA, COLDS, ACHES and PAINS ASP Mofilv central agency made up of persons high- whld: contains Aho bottles of topics, but every program should con- | interest n cultural in tain these features daily.” the project for the establishment with- in the United States Bureau of Edu- cation of & section devoted to education by radio in order to systematize and standardize educational programs.
