BROADCASTERS* NEWS BULLETIN Issued by THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF BROADCASTERS NATIONAL PRESS BUILDING ♦ ♦ ♦ WASHINGTON, D. C. PHILIP G. LOUCKS, Managing Director. June 11, 1932 COUZEWS-DILL REPORT COMPLETED The Federal Radio Commission on Thursday sent to the Senate the report of its investigation of the entire broadcasting industry conducted under the authority of the Couzens-Dill Resolution adopted hy the Senate last January. The report, with exhibits, is 3^0 typewritten pages in length and pre¬ sents, for the first time, an accurate picture of American broadcasting. Pages of facts and figures are given, the result of many weeks of ex¬ haustive study and analysis, but conclusions are left, in most instances to the Senate. The facts are not embellished v/ith argLimentative matter. There is no attempt to defend American broadcasting against the attacks which were responsible for the investigation. The facts, accurate and undisputed, constitute a sufficient defense for any reasonable person who will study them. One great value of the report to the broadcasting industry is that it will put a stop to the steady flow of false and misleading information about American broadcasting. All of the charges against broadcasting by the Am¬ erican Plan are answered in the facts. The report has been referred to the Senate Committee on Printing. Whether or not it will be printed is not known at this time. However, a fair digest of the report is pres^inted in this Bulletin. The Broadcasters* News BuHetin is the official publicotion of the National Association of Broodcasters and is issued regularly from the Association's heodquorters in the Notionol Press Building, Washington, D.
