Ray, news manager of WMAQ (NBC) in a statement made before a meeting of the Chicago Bar Association has advocated more widespread radio coverage of Chicago court cases. Mr. Ray took the position that radio as a medium of gathering and distributing news should have the same opportunity as the press in access to the news made in courtrooms. In seeking to break down present prejudice against such broadcasts, Mr. Ray stated that reports from courtrooms would be handled by radio with dignity and good taste and supported this stand in reminding his listeners that under the terms of a broadcast license a station must operate in the public interest.
