For Radio Listener,
By Harry Macarthur

| this is problem to be dealt with.
Like the program you do not like
and can get rid of by turning a
knob, however, it should be dealt
with first in the home rather than
in the broadcasting studio.
| y X X,
The mother next door has every
right to censor her childs radio
listening, but she has no right to
censor yours and no right to prevent
the man across the street from
listening to Murder Is Killer-Dil-
Ter" if he wants. to. Radio isn't
something peddled secretly to the
young by unprincipled villains lurk-
ing in alleyways.. It is something
offered openly for you to accept or
reject, for your child as well as
for yourself. Radio is not on the
newsstands, as are magazines and
comic books, which also are coming
under scrutiny on this contribution
to-delinquency score. Radio is right
there in your living room where you
can perform your own censorship
with the aid of those two knobs.
Behind every program on the air
there is some one who thinks that it
belongs there. You may often feel
that given program is something
only a sponsor could love, but a
sponsors love for his radio show is
not conditioned by what takes place
on 1t. 1t is conditioned, rather, by
the sales records. II a murder
thriller accompanied by a blatant
sales message produces results, it
proves that number of people are
listening to it and are so far from
langered by it that they are willing
to purchase the sponsors products.
That is another way that censor
ship can begin in the home. The
radio advertiser might wish he
could drive you to the store with a
blacksnake whip, but he can only.
drive you with words. You don't
have to go. You don't even have to
listen to him.
The voices rising in protest at
the content Of some radio programs
have been heard in the Offices of
the major networks. The ''whodun-
its" recently have become favorites
of radio advertisers, both because
they are comparatively low in cost
and because they seem to attract
wide audiences. CHS, however, has
decided to add no more to its sched-
ule, and NBC feels the same way
about it. The ABC net is moving in
the same direction, according to
Variety, the trade paper. If any
new mystery show goes on ABC, an
old one comes off.
Last week also was the week that
CHS officials vetoed the broadcast
of Moss Hart's christopher Blake"
on the ground that the field of psy-
chiatry is still too nebulous and un-
proved for radio presentation.

The cry for censorship, of a sort
for some sort of controls on radio
hroadcasting can be heard If you
listen, but the would-be censors are
forgetting one thing. They are for
getting that the most effective con-
trolls Of all radio broadcasting al
ready are readily available. They
are legal, easy to apply and thei,
effect is immediate and definite.
Usually these controls take the
form of two knobs in plain view or
the front of any radio receiver
though the more imaginative de-
signers of the more futuristic models
may disguise them in some manner
Whateyer their design-whatever
form they take-these controls are
vital. One is combination on-off
switch and rheostat. With 1t you
turn your radio on and regulate the
volume of whatever comes from the
1oudspeaker. The other knob is
attached to the variable condensers
inside your radio. With it you ad-
just the radio frequency of your
receiver to match the radio fire.
quency Of the broadcasting station
you wish to hear.
II is quite likely that you are well
aware of the existence of these knobs
on your radio and also know what
they are there for. They seem to
have been overlooked, however, by
some-by those, that is, who see in
some radio programs a great danger
and q contribution to juvenile de-
Inquency. They would impose a
sort Of censorship to do away with
what they loosely call horror" pro-
grams.
Now these people cannot get any
argument from us merely by stand
ing up and announcing that there
are lot Of radio programs on the
air that ought not to be on the air,
It Is all too easy to side with Lee de
Forest, the inventor of the vacuum
tube, who Is reported to have writ
ten o chiding letter to the National
Association Of Broadcasters. Mr..
De Forest says his baby has been
debased during its 40 years.
II 1t is complained that too many
crime me-does-not-pay programs prove
also that radio listening does not
pay all the time, the complaint Is on
solid ground. The point remains,
however, that those raising the hue
and cry are forgetting that control
of the situation is theirs. There are
few cases on record of persons forced
agaiHst their will to listen to a
radio program, or even to listen to
the fadio.
A slight turn in either direction of
the station-selector knob is almost
sure to bring something more salts
factory than an offending program
out of your loudspeaker. If it should
fail to do so, there is last resort.
Turning the other knob as far as 1t
will 60 in a counter-clockwise direc-
ton is certain to produce silence.
1t may be that some radio pro-
grams tend to contribute to juvenile
delinquency by tales of crime and
violence, even If the D. A. always
wins. A number of people seem to
think so, at any rate. If 1t is so,
