The Coinmission has adopted no such regulations; it is within the discre¬ tion of the individual broadcast station whether or not to require submission of written scripts in advance so long as the license re¬ tains full control over programs. A Boston broadcast listener has written the Commission sug seating that an arrangement be made w'nereby dramas be transmitted over cne netv;ork, symphonic music over another, and that varied pro¬ grams be carried over a third netv/ork. But the Commission has no authority to direct this or other programming. 11
