SENATE BROADCAST
| PLAN PROGRESSING
Day Appears Near When I'M
portant Debates Will Be
Put on Air.
BY ROBERT MACK.

TINE day when debates from the
floor Of the Senate will be
broadcast throughout the coun-
Il try may not be so far distant,
according to members of the
Senate Rules Committee, which steers
the operation of the Upper House.
Senators listened with intense interest
last week to the story unfolded by
executives and engineers Of the two
nationwide networks which ask the
privilege Of broadcaSting important
debates from the Senate They heard
that technically the project is wholly
feasible and that only about $50, 900
would have to be spent to equip the
chamber with microphones and to treat
1t accoustically 80 as to eliminate echoes
and other extraneous noises.
The hearing on the proposal to
equip the chamber and to arrange for
broadcaSts Of selected debates and
speeches was arranged by Senator Dill,
Democrat, of Washington, author of a
resolution to that end introduced last
December. Also before the committee
is a resolution introduced by Senator
Howell, Republican, Nebraska, that a
special committee be appointed to in
vestigate the practicability Of broad
casting proceedings of the Senate.

Feasibility Questioned.

Senator Robinson, Democrat, Arkan-
sas, minority leader, questioned the
feasibility of the plan, saying 1t might
mean virtual abolition of the press gal
lery, since the radio reports might dis
place the newspaper accounts. He
pointed out that the newspaper reports
would be "old stuff" If published the
morning following broadcast on the
same subject.
Moreover, Senator Robinson said the
economics of such scheme would have
to be worked out, since the proceedings
Of the Senate are long and drawn out.

declared the Rules Committee would
have the authority to specify the de-
bates to be broadcast at stated periods.

years ago, not to add anything new Washington.

= HAVE been asked by The
Sunday Star Magazine
what was in the mind of
those who secured the
creation of the George
Wa ashington Bicentennial
Commission when it was first
authorized by joint resolution
of Congress eight years ago.
It was the purpose to start
in ample time to make the
entire population of America
Washington-minded by restat-
ing his contribution to popular
government in the world, and
reappraising the value of that
contribution 200 years after
its Inauguration.
Such a task involved mental
rather than physical activity.
It looked toward spiritual in
Spiration rather than material
demonstration. It pointed to
youth rather than maturity.
It placed emphasis upon his
torical values instead Of finan-
cial successes. It involved
study of principles of liberty
and authority in government
as found in a happy and pros
porous people.
The normal agencies to pro-
duce a wholesome attitude of
the governed toward the gov
erning, and to promulgate a
proper estimate of the prin-
ciples for which Washington
stood are our educational in
stitutions, public and private,
secondary, college and univer-
sity. The problem had to do
primarily with the youth Of
America, where impressions
are readily made and per-
sonality is quickly registered.
Here was a set-up, ready at
hand, with the more than
5000 teachers in as many
school rooms, filled with the
millions of American pupils
susceptible to influences in
character building through
objective teaching. with WASH
ington as the example.
