RESULTS EXPECTED FROM RADIO BODY WITHIN SIX MONTHS

Will Cut Out Quackery On Air, Declares Hector ChnrlesvivortlnChairmar.

MONTREAL, Dec. 11—Withi.n the next six months Canada's National Radio_ Broadcasting Commission will begin to show definite results. and later will be able to show something creditable to Canada and a boon to the continent of North America, Hector Charles- worih, chairman of the newly- creatcd commission, declared before “is Quebec Radio Trades Associ- ation, in his first broadcast utter- mce since his appointment.

The only declaration of policy

inade by Mr. Charlcsivorth was this: "One thing we are going to 10," he declared, "we are going to rut out quackery on the air. There will be no broadcasting about Patent medicines-and there have been many offensive ones-until iheir continuity has been passed illiou by the public health depart- inent cf Canada." In this respect, lie said, he ha dalready had the co- llleration of broadcasting stations h eliminating objectionable matter.

But while Mr. Charlesworth did not discuss the policy of the com- mission, except in general terms, he “Wfed u wide ficld of radio ac- “Vlty stressing the folly and dis- ‘dvautase of leaving radio in the hands of advertisers interested only in reaching regions where purchas- 118 Dower lies.

"Mbudv who thinks," m. Bharlesworth declared, "can fall to realize the tremendous possibilities that lie beforc radio here and in "her parts of the world. Think of "I-Ou Christmas Day the voices of Canadians will be heard through-

out the worldl Who could have im- iigined such a thing at the time the war ended?"

Much Work Done

The Radio Commission will have no difficulty in procuring broad- casting talent and ability, and they will not have to go outside the country for it, declared Mr. Charlesworth, chairman of the com- mission.

"Canada is full of talent," he said. “There are seven first class symphony orchestras available at the moment, along with two of the finest string quartettes in the world. New York is flooded with Canadian artists of the radio and concert hall, so that there will be no need to obtain foreigners for our programmes. With one excep- tion, there isn't a. comedian worth a. straw in the country. We will have to develop them. For that mat- ter there is only a handful of oom- edians on the air in the United States that we would care to listen to. '

CHRISTMAS BROADCAST

OTTAWA, Dec. 10—The first na- tional broadcast under the auspices of the new radio commission will be on Christmas Day when Canada will share in therEmpire diffusion of the British Broadcasting Com- pany. This was the broadcast in which Canada fell down last Christ- mas. The difficulties which were then encountered have now been removed. Between Christmas and New Year's Day, Canadian listeners will be in on a series of Empire tests programs, arrangements for

which are now being made in Lon- don by Col. Steele lof thepommig. sion, with the British Broadcasting Company.

The Radio Commission, soon af- ter New Year, will start all-Can- adian broadcasts probably two or three times a week. The programs are being considered and the net- works arranged for by the techni- cal experts who have been loaned to the Canadian National, and Du- pont of La Presse Station in Mont- real.

OTTAWA, Dec. 11.-—0f the 23 varieties which make up the bulk of Canada's harvest of sea and in- land fish, nine were taken in larg- er quantitles in 1931 than the pre- vious year, and only one variety- swordfish-—brought a larger rev- enue than in 1930. The total value of fish marketed iu Canada in 1931 was $30,517,308, as compared with $47,804,216 in 1930, and $53,518,521 in 1929. The decrease in market I lowered production, however. years.

The only variety of fish to be tak- en in larger quantities in 1931, and at the same time to bring a larger return than the previous year, was swordfish. The catch was 12,629 hundredweight which sold for $236,- 017. In 1930 the swordfish catch was 11,933 hundredwcight which sold for $314,908. The catch in 1931 and the price secured, was thc highest on record for this variety of seafood.

lobsters, herring, smelt, mackerel. ling cod perch, oysters and eels, were the other varieties to be tak- cn in larger quantities in 1931, but in each case the lowered price left the total marketed value lower than the previous year.
