It should be remembered that initial responses to the FCC inquiries were predominantly in favor of Toll TV until the issue was joined and debated and the public got a clearer picture of its status in the event that this medium became a reality. Just how far this swing has gone would be pure conjecture on our part but there are indications that it has been quite substantial — enough to frighten the proponents of Toll TV into a change in their party line. fSee Page 3) 1., ^
