Large Sums Are Spent
BY Voice 10 Control
Press. Jenner Says
BY ths A..o.,sio,.d Pres, !,

I =
Senator Jenner, Republican, Of
Indiana charged yesterday the
Voice of America spends large
sums Of money each year "for
thought-control over Americans. !"
The State Department replied
there was no basis for such an
accusation.
Senator Jenner said in a state
ment that the Voice pays out sub
stantial sums to "a number Of free
lance writer's, broadcasting COM
panies, movie producers and
Others.
Subscriptions Bought.
| In addition. he said, the Voice
and related units Of the State De-
partment bought 25.031 subscrip-
ltions to American newspapers and
magazines last year.
ut is likely" he asked. "that
American publishers, editors, "a
dio broadcasters, telegraph and
cable companies who get large
checks from the Voice are going to
criticize 1t or tell the American
people the critical remarks mem
bers of Congress say about the
lVoice?" 4
Nearly every dollar spent here

over Americans the Senator said.
Elisha Hanson, attorney for the
American Newspaper Publishers
Association, said "it doesn't make
any difference whether you buy
the newspaper on the news stand,
or the State Department buys it.
the papers are for sale, and the
buyer definitely doesn't control
the paper in any way"
Try for Cross Section.
Lincoln White, the State De-
partment's press officer, said there
has never been any secret about
the fact that we try to get a cross
section of American opinion out
to the rest of the world and where
that involves the services of
professional writer's and radio
commentators we pay them for
those services:
Mr.. White also told a reporter
there was no intention or practice
of thought control" and no basis
in fact for Senator Jenner's accu-
sation. With respect to magazine
and newspaper subscriptions, Mr..
White said "It is true-and there
has never been any secret about
iit-that we send newspapers and
magazines all over the world so
other peoples can know what
America is like and what ite ideas
are"
IF the good Senator" Mr..
White said, would take ,the
trouble to read those papers and
magazines he'd find out how criti-
cal they can be. of the Voice and
the State Department"

Agreed on by Parties

mittees announced agreement
yesterday on a limited and "digni-
fled" commercial sponsorship of
|radio-television coverage Of the
national political conventions at
Chicago in July.
Two conditions laid down in a
code worked out with the radio
and television networks are that
mo commercial announcements will
be permitted from the convention
floor and the type Of sponsor
shall be approved by the political
parties. (The committee announce
ments did not elaborate. but Off
cials had said previously they
would object to sponsorship by
firms which sell, for example, beer
or deodorants)
Commercials Limited.
Three other conditions provide: !:
I. That commercial messages
may be made only during recesses
or during "long pauses" in actual
convention proceedings.
2. Commercials must meet the
highest standards of dignity,
good taste and length"
3. At the start and end of each
broadcast period, an announce
ment shall make it perfectly
clear" (A) that the client is spon-
soring the networks coverage of
the event, and (B) that such
coverage does not imply in any
manner an Endorsement of the
product of the sponsor by the
political party. This clause also
provides that all commercials
shall be written, programmed and
delivered in such a way as to be
clearly and completely separated

alities."
Announced simultaneously.
The Democratic and Republi-
can national committees have
been working on the convention
code with industry representa-
tives for several months. They
made simultaneous announce
ments of the agreement today and
said it had been accepted by the
American Broadcasting Co.. Co.
|lumbia Broadcasting System, Du-
mont Television Network, Liberty
Broadcasting System. Mutual
Broadcasting System and National
Broadcasting Co.
The committees said the net
works requested permission to sell
their coverage of the Republican
(July y and Democratic (July
|2D conventions due to "substan-
italy increased programming, en-
Igineering and other costs" in con-
Inection with the coverage. With
out commercial sponsorship, the
networks would have to bear all
the costs themselves.
The networks, it was said,
agreed to5 construct their own
booths, studios and control rooms

scene OF the conventions.

"None Of the commercial rev.

political committees" said the an
nouncement.
Past conventions have been
aired largely on a non-commercial
basis.
Committee officials said the re-
strictions would apply to local
sponsors as well as those paying
for network advertising.
ABC announced that Admiral
Corp. would sponsor its television
and radio coverage. On January

tive venture would probably be
onered to individual stations for
