THE MANUSCRIPT QUESTION
Representative Ruth Bryan Owen, Democrat of Florida, believes that public speakers using radio will soon be forced to forego the use of manuscript, Mrs, Owen, who never uses manuscript, says that "the listening public is not going to stand very long for the dead quality in a voice reading the written word.
It will demand the freshness of extemporaneous speaking,"
"I didn^t find it hard to master extemporaneous speaking before the micro¬ phone," she says. "As a matter of fact, I found it much easier than I imagine it would be if I used a manuscript. To my mind, it would be impossible to visualize my small, front room audiences if I were paying attention to some¬ thing printed in front of me."
