MONTREAL, Que, April 13—-(By the Canadian Press)-—A shiver ran down Montreal's spine today as King Winter attempted to wrestle control of the weather from spring.

The 01d gentleman did not quite succeed; but he did make it ex- eeedingly uncomfortable for those caught out in_ garments which had looked seasonable in the morning. He sent a snow storm which lasted for an hour or two and at its crest reached near blizzard proportions_ 1t soon died down and by this evening had melted off the streets.

Many a. dainty shoe was ready for the cleaner or the ashcan, dc- pending upon its material, after its owner was forced to plough through the inch of muddy snow deposited in her path.

The flooded condition of many rivers which cverflowed the banks during the past few days owing chiefly to ice jams was reported generally as receding tonight. Con- siderable inconvenlence was still be- ing experienced at Beaucevllle where the lower sections were bur-

OTTAWA, 0111., April 13-(87 the Canadian Pressl-A bleak pic- ture of broadcasting conditions in the United States was given the house committee on radio today by Dr. J. E. Morgan, spokesman for the National Committee on educa- tion by radlo, Washington, D. 0., and Dr. Lee DeForest, described as the father of radio broadcasting. The submission of Dr. De Forest was read to the committee by Gra- ham Spry, bead of the Canadian Radio League, the organization leading the fight for public own- ershlp of radio brcadcastin, in‘ Canada.

Dr. Morgan charged that power- ful interests were spending s. mil- lion dollars a year in propaganda in the United States to keep con- trol of radio in the hands of priv- ate interests, that educational ef- forts were being stifled by these in- terests, and the right of free speech on the air tened. The Fed- eral Radio Commission, appointed by act of Congress in 1927, had functioned weakly and failed to carry out its responsibilities of con- ducting the industry "in the inter-

est of public welfare, convenience and necessity," Dr. Morgan con- tended.

Dr. De Forest also bitterly ex- pressed himself regarding radio conditions in the United States. “In the space of a few years," he wrote, "we in the United States have seen the radio so debased by commercial advertising that many house-holders look upon it in the same light as a bothersome itiner- .ant salesman. Much of the direct 'radio advertising was "a vulgar, cheap jack-show designed to draw dollars out of the people's pockets,” he declared.

Further argument in support of public ownership of radio wascon- tained in a brief submitted by J. L. Ilsley, (Lib, Hunts-Kings), a member of the committee, on behalf of Professor O. H. Mercer of the Department of Languages, Dal- housie University, Halifax, NPE. Professor Mercer has been interest- ed in educational broadcasting for some time and studied the systems in vogue in several European coun- tries. "
