Unsatisfactory Setup

Now that Parliament is about to get down to business, perhaps something will be done to im- prove llle Canadian Broadcasting Corporation setup. As it stands now the CBC is a commer- cial advertising concern with present revenues aPptQﬂcllittz $2,000,000 from that source and enjoying a special public tax revenue of ap- preaching $4,000,000. ’l‘l1ere seems to be evid- ence that the main talents of the CBC manage- ment have been devoted to the piling up of large and still larger revenues from advertising. That, as the Ottawa Journal 11011115 out, was not the original intention; somebody, presumably Par- liament from u-hich the CBC derives its being, should state now whether it approvgs of that change. lf so the c_a_niouflagc should be rc- moved.

.-\ license fee of $2.50 foi- each radio docs not seem to be out of the way. Bu! the cost of col- lecting the fccs is heavy aiid it involves employ- ment of many people throughout the country who could be better occupied. And it docs not seem fitting that a Government department (Transport) should be engaged now in prosecut- ing, in groups of 5o, people who have failed to pay fees to a commercially-operated corpora- tion. It is rzportcd that the prosecutions are made in g-rotips so that they \\'lll attract atten- tion in ilcwspaper Dolice couit reports.

Perhaps the main criticism, with much justi- fication, comes from the belief that for many months the management and inspiration of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as a national institution 0f great potentialities for public benefit have gone dead. The CBC govern- ing board has been left out on a limb. Every Cabinet minister has fought shy of having any- thing to do with it—thcv don’t want to get their fingers burned. Vacancies on the board are 1101 filled. the position of cvcn the general manager remains unfilled. Existing governors are scat- tered, meet infrequently, andprobably pay little attention to CBC affairs during the intervals

All this indicates drv rot; of some kind in thc outstanding essential functions of the CBC. It is, or should be, the duty of Parliament to find a remedy.

PUBLIC FORUM

WHERE OUR EDUCATION FAILS

sin-I read On-lookei-slotter with great interest. I endorse a good many of his opinions. There ls one point he makes with which I can- not agree. He states "We must admit that this same system has provided many, many well-trained capable persons who have filled Important positions all ovur this continent and beyond ft." I have heard that argument so many times now that I usually retaliate by stating that I believe the auc- cessful succcded in suite of the Syl- tem. We cannot judge a system of aducatlon by the brilliant men at the bop. It. seems to me a result. of wishful thinking, which blinds us to the facts.

W11 live in a democracy, our con- cern, should be with the people. What: of the 95 pet‘ cent: of the children who leave school at Grades VIII oi- IX ln the country and the 75 per cent who leave at the same time tn Charlottetown. What l5 there tn our system for them? The percentage of attend- ance ls very low. That would not; be so if cur schools were suited to the needs of the people and really prepared the child for llfe. There lire children at: work a; full time Jobs in Charlottetown who should be 1n school. There ls a truimt of- ficer. But ff ha forced these child- ren to go brick to school they would only be u e problems. We have provided no training 1n our system for any but. those who can take advantage of an academic training.

‘There was some publicity lven n. few years ago to special ca-sses for the backward child but. m no doubt that some official (if he gave 1t any thought) leaned back tn his armchair thinking of our successful Islanders and d fded that any system which oauld pro- duce men such as they could lint-d- ly be improved upon. There l! al- ways a. lack of tnoney as well. We have money fcr many thlngskbut never any for education. Le us hope that we will soon face facts and act.

It u said 111111: our Island tlovs are under n great. handicap in the forces because of their lack of e u- catlon. They are getting some ow —tt ls traiztc that they had to o fer thpir services in war before they go it.
