CANADIAN REGULATIONS— Continued
Canadian system does not involve contracts for wires between private stations and private telephone companies. In Canada a radio station requiring a wire for chain broadcasting gets such a wire from the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. The latter, in turn, has obtained this wire on a lease from the telephone and telegraph companies, and is thus more or less a go-between the stations and the wire companies. The CBC lease of broadcasting wires run from noon to midnight each day. Some 13,000 miles of single wire are used. In short, the CBC has control of the chain wires, which accounts for the CBC s authority to promulgate Item 20.
The attached regulations, numbered 1 to 23, were passed at a meeting of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation held at Toronto, in the Province of Ontario, on the 8th day of September, 1937. as and for the regulations of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and were made under authority of subsection one of section twentytwo of The Canadian Broadcasting Act, chapter twenty-four of the Statutes of 1936, which reads as follows : "The Corporation may make regulations
(a) to control the establishment and operation of chains or networks of stations in Canada ;

(d) to determine the proportion of time which may be devoted to advertising in any programs broadcast by the stations of the Corporation or by private stations and to control the character of such advertising ;
(e) to prescribe the proportion of time which may be devoted to political broadcasts by the stations of the Corporation and by private stations, and to assign such time on an equitable basis to all parties and rival candidates."
