PAYNE NON-COMMITAL AS HE IS SUGGESTED FOR N. Y. MAYOR
Commissioner George Henry Payne this week declined to state that he is or is not a candidate for the Republican nomi¬ nation for Mayor of New York City, after his name had been put forward by W. Kingsland Macy, Suffolk County Republican Chairman.
It was stated on behalf of the Commissioner that he is now keenly interested in his work with the Federal Communi¬ cations Commission and has not taken any steps to enter the New York mayoralty race. He denied, however, a published state¬ ment that he is not a candidate for the post.

"I believe the party would do better at the polls and build better for the future if it were to nominate some Progress¬ ive Republican like George Henry Payne, whose work in the past two years In the Federal Communications Commission has attracted nation-wide attention. "

"You can teach us technique", he said, "but it must be almost inevitable, if television is to achieve its own requirements in technique that we shall one day be offering you in return technical short-cuts to production, ”
He said there was good reason for his belief in that the earlier development of radio and electronics, stimulated by the coming of sound broadcasting, had incidentally given re¬ birth to the motion picture, by adding sound to sight,
