their own researches into this spe-
cialized, even If highly important,
phase Of radio programming.
That it is not a simple problem Is
apparent to any adult who knows the
difficulty Of child persuasion. Ac-
cording to Mrs. Sidonie M. Gutenberg,
director Of the Child Study Associa-
tion, who has already distinguished
herself for her researches into the
problem, it starts out at once with
clash Of interests between the children
and adults. She sees as significant
the fact that children between 6 and
IL are ardent radio listeners but gen.
orally pick as favorites the very pro-
grams which parents as whole view
with special concern-the thriller, the
mystery, the low comedy and the
melodI amatic adventure. Some par
ents call this sensational nonsense"
and charge that it makes children
nervous and develops undue tears.
1T is not easy to evaluate such
criticism" Mrs. Gutenberg says. "a
mother who dislikes either a certain
program, or the radio in general, is
likely to be quite sure that what she
dislikes is bad for her child. And yet
1t Is beyond dispute that many pro-
grams are Objectionable because they
convey false ideals or misleading SEN
timentalities. or because they murder
the Kings English or play too reck-
lessly with children'S fears and hor-
rors. Still worse, some programs
which attempt to admonish children,
ostensibly as an aid to parents, are
crude and psychologically unsound.
And there can be no excuse whatever
for making children feel that they are
obligated to promote the sale of mer-
chandise advertised by the sponsors
Of their favorite programs"

The station at Bangkok, located in

palatial broadcasting station in the

and the King uses a picturesque silver
