Canadian Press sum Writer... TORONTO (CP)-Radio and TV channels should be opened up to free competition. the royal com- mission on broadcasting was told Friday. An officer of the publishing- , broadcasting firm of Southam Com- ' pany Ltd. urged this and also said private stations should have free- dom from CBC control over the content of their air time. St. Clair Balfou , Jr.. of Hamli- ton, executive vice-president of the company, accused the CBC of a measure of censorship. though commission chairman R. M. Fow- ler took issue with him on this. COMPUISION INVOLVED Mr. Balfour, whose company pub- lishes newspapers in seven cities and has interests in two radio and two TV stations, suggested censor- ship was involved when a private TV station was compelled to carry the 11 p.m. news of the CBC. "I wouldn't have thought so," Mr. Fowler said.
"When you're told you must carry the 11 pm. newscast, I'd say so." Mr. Balfour said.
"I must look up the definition of censorship," the chairman said.

The brief he presented on behalf of the Southam Compaiw advanced this same principle. Mr. Balfour took issue with an earlier argument of the Canadian Labor Congress before the commis- sion that newspaper-radio-TV own- ership is monopolistic and should

Negro Vote Sought in
-Congressiona
By GEORGE KITCHEN Canadian Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON (CP) - The Re- publicans and the Democrats are quietly trying to woo an estimated 4.000.000 Negro votes which may well represent the balance of power in this year's congressional elec- tions.
Both parties are staking a claim to the ballots of northern Negroes who. though not directly touched by the upheavals over racial inte- gration in the southem states. are nonetheless iniiuenced by develop- ments there.
A key factor in the direction vot- ing sentiment takes will be the civil rights planks to be written into their respective platforms when.the two parties select their pnsidential candidates this sum- mer. The attitudes of those candi- dates toward the Negro problem also will be weighed before the Negro voters enter the polling booths.
This is one contest in which the, Democrats stand to lose more lhanl the Republicans. The Negro vote has been largely pro-Democratic since the days of President Frank- i lin D. Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt

in its North American customers by 10 per cent as a result of pro- duction losses at a major Canadian mill, A. B Meyers, president, said Friday.
The reduction will be in addition to a 10-per-cent slash in newsprint quotas the company has had in effect since last January. Numer- ous other newspring producers have bccn rationing the printing paper in recent months largely because or inability to keep up with bur- gconing demand.
Keyers said the latest reduction, which will affect 175 North Ameri- can newspapers. was made neces- sary by a fire Monday night in the power plant oi the Comer Brook mill in Newfoundland. PRODUCTION HALTED
in a letter to customers, Meyers stated the fire has resulted in a loss of 3,000 tons of newsprint pro- duction. The huge mill normally turns out-1.000 tons of newsprint and 150 tons of sulphlte pulp daily on seven machines.
when the fire broke out. pro- duction was halted. Since then, it ii.-ls been gradually resumed as burned-out wiring was replaced.
