Let the People Decide As a foreword If the Mail Tribune thought "Pay TV" would drive out "Free TV" we would be leading the fight against it. We regard the "TV" station here as a genuine community asset, and our hope is that like Rip Van Winkle, it "lives long and prospers." Nor do we blame the "TV'industry or any part of it that has convinced itself "Pay TV" WILL drive out "Free TV" for doing all it legiti mately can to defeat it. Any business big or little would do the same. DUT we would emphasize "LEGITIMATELY." And deliberate "misrepresentation" is NOT legitimate. Yet the TV industry in the USA has for many months, conducted a nation-wide campaign of "misrepresentation" doing everything in itsi power to make the people of the country believe particularly the TV listeners that if "Pay TV" comes in their cherished and FREE "TV" will go out. As stated in a foot-note to an "anti-Pay TV" communication recently, "there is no evidence whatsoever" to support the claim that "Pay TV" would eliminate "Free TV". And there ISN'T! There is no more validity to this "crv of Wolf" than there was many years ago to the cry that radio would ruin the "Victor Record Busi ness ana eventually take tne place ot news paper As a matter of fact, the Record Business and the newspaper business as a whole never "had it so good," and the "TV" hasn't, as also predicted, when it was perfected, driven out the radio and it won t. In other words, just as prosperous coexistence has been possible in all those fields we are con vinced, if and when "Pay Television is given a trial a similar prosperous coexistence will be established in that area. BUT as a communication in today's "letter-box" niTtrc liie -I ,1 mrm r v I t n m ri- o ! V-r cawi n oiiuwo, liuo juugmciib 10 nut onaicu uy oumc local TV fans, particularly those who listened to a "KBES-TV" blast against "Pay TV" on the local station February 2nd. And to refute our statement, there is no evi dence "Free TV" can't stand up in competition with "Pay TV", our communicant declares among other things that the Vice President of Zenith- Skiatron" declared in this , propaganda-show, quote : "Our aim is to supplant Free Television." What more evidence is wanted, we are asked, than that by a representative of the Zenith Radio which initiated the fight for "Pay TV" and is its recognized leader;? We grant that claim surprised us. For ever since Zenith started its campaign for "Pay TV", we have received frequent reports from that company and in practically every one it was clearly stated there was no intention to "SUPPLANT" Free TV but only to SUPPLE MENT" it. Their aim was to give those of the American audience who wished to pay about 30 cents a day, for better TV programs the oppor tunity to do so. In short, we couldn't believe it. So we called up the Zenith Radio corpora tion in Chicago, told them about this local claim,- and asked them to explain.it. We got Joseph S. Wright, Vice President of Zenith, the man charged with making the state ment, and after some conversation he dictated the following, quote: WE. COMB OVER TO TUB WINDOW AM' LISTEN TO THESE GIM3 SJNS SWEPT ADDA SCWETHltf'l' I understand a local TV station is spreading the false statement in Medford that subscription TV will take over and make the public pay for present TV programs. This is part of a campaign of propaganda agreed upon by a group of stations at a meeting called by CBS in Washington, D.C. on January 13, 1958, to try to scare Congress and the public into prohibiting even the limited test of subscription TV service authorized by FCC. With subscription TV there would be added to present programs a few hours a week of great new movies like "The Ten Commandments" and plays like "My Fair Lady" which the whole family could see for less than one ticket to the movies and without interruption by advertising. These are the programs advertisers can never af ford to put on and they would add greatly to the pleasure of television without taking away the present advertising programs. Anyone quoting any Zenith official as saying this would supplant advertising TV is a liar and simply carrying out the orders of the New York network officials who just plain don't want any competition. (Signed) Joseph S. Wright, Vice Pres., Zenith Radio Corporation, Chicago, IU. THAT certainly is clear enough! So we come to the "misrepresentation" phase of this controversy. We are not accusing our correspondent of the slightest guilt in this direction, she merely took the local broadcast as undoubtedly did many others at its face value and honestly believed some official of Zenith radio had declared the aim of that company was to drive "Free TV" out of business. We believe she will now admit she wTas mistaken. Certainly no reasonable or fair-minded per son would deny she wras. MOR will the "alibi" that it was not the Vice President of Zenith, but one Robert Hall, not of Zenith, but of "Zehith-Skiatron" whatever that is! and not a Vice President but a member of the board of directors of that concern, fool anyone. Zenith is not connected in any way, Mr. Wright declared, with Skiatron. This sort of fakery and double-talk will not Misrepresentation by TV Alleged by Zenith Officer Chicago, Feb. 22 (Special) "I am not surprised by the action of the House and Sen ate commerce committees in adopting resolutions to delay subscription television pend ing further Congressional ac tion, E. F. McDonald Jr., pres ident of Zenith Radio Corp., said here today. "Members of these commit tees were put under terrific pressure by sacks of mail from constituents who had been frightened by a cam paign of deliberate misrepre sentation into believing that even a limited test of sub scription TV would deprive them of .the advertising pro grams they now receive," he added. McDonald's statement con tinued: "The campaign originated with the heads of the three TV networks, who decided to use their astounding power to mold public opinion to kill off subscription television be-' fore the public had a chance to see it and decide for them selves whether they liked it. "Affiliated stations con- ducted fear campaigns in which they told their audi ences that subscription tele vision would make them pay for the programs they are now receiving, and urged them to write letters of protest to their Congressmen. This generated hundreds of thousands of let ters to members of the Con gress, and resulted in the res olutions to delay the test "I am confident that either Congress or "the Department of Justice will air the facts about this misuse of the air, and that ultimately subscrip tion TV will have the tradi tional American chance to offer its services in the mar ketplace, so that the people can make their own decision." Communications Letters to the Editor must bear the name and address of the writer, although under certain circumstances the use of a pen name or initial for publication is permissible.

The letters printed in this column do not necessarily represent the views of the paper; in fact the contrary is often the case. " Pay TV Opposed To the Editor: Last week a Mail Tribune editorial entitled 'What The People Really Need" in which the second- mentioned item was three years of Pay TV. The editor is entitled to his opinions, certainly, but the editor's note at the bottom of Mr. Graham's answer to that editorial needs clarification. "No evidence whatever that pay TV would eliminate free XV"? ' Where did you look for evi dence? If you will accept the word of the vice-president of Zenith-Skiatron, "our aim is to supplant free television." In my tattered dictionary "supplant" means "replace, and if you doubt that he said it, the local television station has a tape-recording of his nationally televised com' ment. If you will not accept Skia- tron's stated goal as evidence take a look at the entertain ment they have negotiated to present. There are the Dodg- for a minute pull the wool over anyone's eyes and hide the fact the entire purpose of this "propa ganda-show" was to make the American people believe that the company that originated the drive for "Pay TV" and has led and still leads the fight for it, publicly admitted the purpose of that effort was to deprive the American people of "Free TV" altogether. THERE is the angle. And that is what we mean by "misrepre sentation." The sad feature is that this sort of fraud has made great progress with the TV audi ence as a whole, TV owners naturally being opposed to any proposal that would force them to pay for a service they now get free. That, of course, is not true. They will only pay for extra features if they want them, and if the 3 year trial demonstrates they don't want them, obviously "Pay TV" will fail and 'fade out as other moves lacking the support of public approval have done. A ND here we come to the crux of the entire problem as far as this paper is concerned. We feel that "Pay TV" not to "SUPPLANT", but to SUPLEMENT "Free TV" would render in the line of higher-grade and more diversified entertainment a genuine public service. We feel equally certain that if the combina tion of free and paid T.V. were given a trial it would succeed and the American public after such a trial would demand its continuance. And that is all the Pro-Pay TV groups now demand and all the FCC has allowed not a per manent license, just a 3 year TRY-OUT. What could be fairer or more democratic? No one in cluding the Delphian Oracle can tell just how the dual system WILL work out, anymore than it can be told what the wTeather will be next Christmas. The only way the facts can be determined is to try it out. And then as above indicated, let the people decide as eventually they always do. Judging by the frenetic and frantic efforts of the TV Tycoons to prevent such a trial not even allow the people an OPPORTUNITY to decide they must greatly fear what the nature of the peo ple's decision would be! R.W.R. er's and the L. A. Rams, both of whom played on our free channel last year. Tell me please how you can take the Los Angeles Rams off free TV and put them on pay TV without eliminating part of free television? Once the professional games, the spec ial events and the big variety shows (stated targets) are on a pay basis there can, con ceivably, still be free televis ion. But only if the station can subsist on the revenues from Kiddy Kartoons, Fem inine Fancies and a visit to Historic Virginia and only if Mr. Graham's veterans would care to watch them. One other comment. "What the People Really Need" mentions the extra entertain ment for a "very ' small charge." The first experiment in Oklahoma charged $9 per month. The first application filed this year asks $30 per year plus $1 per special event. Is this a "very small charge"? What do the people really need? For one thing, fewer to tell them what they really need and somebody to ask them. Practically nobqdy ever does. And if they ask, one comment is most likely to be, "throw rocks at TV because we are a captive audience with one channel, throw rocks at SP because we are captive customers with one train line," but while you are having fun, count the local daily newspapers. Jane Gillaspie, 636 ' West Fourth, Medford Matter of Fact By Stewart Alsop 11 rvi The City Junk Pile Again To the Editor: Although we no longer live in Medford. we have been hearing about the junk yard controversy the one located on Hilton rd. We used to own property in that area, and were there long before 1 that wrecking yard was put in. We know by sad experience how this unsightly mess has lowered property values in the vicinity. When we were ready to sell we had the appraisers from one of the local banks come out to tell us what financial help they would give to whom and this is the answer they gave us: "We came out to see your place, but didn't even get out of the car for we saw the wrecking yard and would not loan anything at all on any property near it." Now we hear that all of that district has been taken into the city limits of Med ford. I would think that your City Council would refuse, a license to such an unsightly mess and see that it is moved out of city limits, thereby re storing the proper valuations to the homeowners who have been so unhappy with a junk- heap for a front yard. - "An Unhappy Seller," (Name on File) RACE FOR THE MOON Washington Although lit tle attention has been paid to it, the United States is now engaged in race with the Soviet Union at least as im portant in terms of pres tige and prop aganda as the race for the first earth sat ellite. We are Stewart Alsop m a race to be first to shoot the moon. President Eisenhower has acknowledged that he and his advisors, underestimated the global psychological effect of the Soviet triumph in launch ing the first satellites. The effect of the appearance of a visible blotch on the face of the old familiar moon, which has peered down on the earth for so many aeons, is likely to be even greater. This is why, in the wake of the Soviet Sputniks, a very high priority was assigned to an Air Force project for hitting the moon with a stag ed missile. The current Air Force schedule which represents, it should be understood, more a hope than a certainty calls for the first moon shot before the end of this year, perhaps by mid-summer or even earlier. The vehicle will be a Thor rocket, equipped jvith a booster to kick its speed up to the necessary escape velocity of around 24,- 000 miles an hour. mHE experts are sure that -- this fantastic speed can be achieved. They are not so fsure that the incredibly com plex and sophisticated aiming and guidance system required actually to hit the moon can be perfected so soon. For consider the problem involved. Earth and moon are separated by more than 215,- 000 miles, and both bodies are moving at great speeds Thus shooting the moon might be compared, in the simplest terms, to bringing down a fast-flying goose with a bola from the top of a speeding automobile. In other words, the first nation to shoot the moon sue cessfully will display to the world a most significant tech nical proficiency in the vital field of ballistic guidance. Thus in a symbolic sense, the first moon shot will have more real strategic signifi cance than the first satellite launching. Among the experts, there is some dispute about the pur pose of a moon shot, one theory is that the warhead of the missile should release certain gases on the surface of the moon, which would convey to the scientists im portant information about at mospheric and other lunar conditions. The gases would. however, be invisible from the earth. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Financial note: Government experts believe the lowering of reserve re quirements for banks by the Federal Reserve Board will spur the nation's "faltering" economy. The move will allow banks to loan as much as three Bil lion additional dollars. TWO questions: 1. Will it help? 2. If so, how much? I Could Not Sleep at Night To the Editor: Nation-wide publicity about inhuman trap ping of wild animals is elicit ing strong support for S.2489 the humane trapping bill introduced in Congress by Senator Neuberger and other Senators. Congressmen have reported heavy mail for the support of the bill. Various types and sizes of humane traps are being de signed to kill the animal al most instantly. These are now being demonstrated in some parts of the United States. In Canada great progress has been made and many trappers now use humane traps suc cessfully. Inventors and manu facturers of the humane de vices are conferring with wild life conservationists and hu mane societies discussing these traps aiming at humane oper ation and how to promote their use. Mr. McCabe is un duly excited. I do not think he will have to use salt or a lasso. M. B. Berry, Shady Cove, Ore. P.S. Will you please print the following poem in con nection with my letter. If I had set a trap of steel I could not sleep at night. The pain-crazed eyes of dying things Would shine so fiercely bright. There in the dark around my led Shv creatures I would see With swollen, frozen, bleed ing limbs For mercy begging me. I'd hear the anguished fright ened cries Of little furry balls, Imprisoned, struggling through long days While no one heeds their calls. I'd see those wild and free- born things Which should live in peace, With glazing eyes look up at me In pleading for, release. If I had set a trap of steel I could not sleep at night. The pain-crazed eyes of dying things Would shine so fiercely bright. From "Our Dumb Animals'. Mina M. Titus, M.B. PERSONALLY, I think it all depends on who wants to borrow" money and how much and WHAT FOR. For example: If this new expansion of credit enables you to borrow five hundred dollars to go to Las Vegas for a week end binge and you spend your week end in the gambling palaces along The Strip and lose your $500, it won't have done much to check the re cession. B' UT you have CONFI DENCE in the future And if your confidence is justified And if this new expansion of credit enables you to bor row the new capital with which to expand your busi ness and hire more people and add to the growth and development of your commu nity and in the end MAKE SOME HONEST MONEY FOR YOURSELF WELL In that, event The lowering of reserve re quirements by the Federal Reserve Board, thus making more loanable money avail able to people who know how to use additional capital prof itably, will be a real stimulus to our nation's economy. B UT NOT otherwise. If sound business people lack the CONFIDENCE to borrow the money and use it wisely and constructively and profitably this new credit that has been made available won't help much. THE alternative is to pack " ...-ww--. ,U..,UVA .1.11 certain dyes which would on impact color a sufficient area of the moon's surface to be visible from the earth, at least through telescopes. The dye would have little scien tific meaning. But with the lesson of the Sputniks in mind, the advocates of a visi ble dye are likely to have their way. The main initial object of the race for the moon is psychological. Pure ly scientific experiments can come later. There is no really solid basis for judging the likely winner of the race for the moon. Ever since the second Sputnik firing the intelli gence experts have been waiting anxiously for anoth er shoe to drop. The Soviets had been expected to launch further satellites at the rate of one a month indeed, they had boasted that they would do so. One theory to explain the long gap since the second Sputnik launching is that the Soviets have purposely held back on satellite launchings, to avoid a sense of anti climax, and that they are now concentrating all their ener gies on winning the race to the moon. There is no doubt that the Soviets can provide the nec essary thrust to achieve es cape velocity. But there is some belief probably wish ful that their guidance sys tem is not sufficiently sophis ticated for a moon shot. There is even some evidence, taken seriously by the experts, that some weeks ago the Soviets attempted a moon shot which failed. IT ANY rate, the race for iha mnnn ie nn nrA thle time, at least, the responsible American authorities have ac knowledged to themselves that we. are in a race. The race for the moon is only a part, of course, of the whole race for space. All three services are pre pared to launch further satel lites this year, so that, as one space specialist put it, "space will soon be lousy with hardware." Project Pied Pip er, the Air Force program for a television-equipped re connaissance satellite is suf ficiently advanced so that the first crude spy satellite may be launched this year. There are even serious plans for shots at Mars and Venus to follow the first moon shots. And the grand prize true manned space travel is now considered to be won, whether by the Russians or ourselves, in the rather near future. (Copyright 1958. New York Herald Tribune Inc.
