WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-

here, March %.

Wallace j. Campbell, head of the

TV stations have been chary of
using the film, produced by National
Tax Equality Association, on free
Tor sustaining) time. But they have
generally felt that an offer to sell
co-ops equal time cleared them of
all responsibility if NTEA or other
antl-co-op groups chose to buy time
to run Citizen Dave Douglas"
In his letter to WRC-TV. Campbell
disagreed with this view. He said the
film is "highly controversial" at
tacks "a wide range of legitimate
business enterprises" and ''would
be a sound basis for
action if it had named specific
organizations"
WRC-TV is National Broadcasting
