A new development in the Broad casting scheme for India is the announcement that Mr. Dunstan of the British Broadcasting Company will depart' for India Kaiser-I-Hind in December that the service will be inaugur in Bombay and Calcutta on March 1 next year. Mr. Dunstan has had the inestimable advantage of working directly under Mr. J. C, W. Reith, Managing Director of the British Company, so that as far the broad principles of organization ave concerned, the work could not be in heifer hands. Local cond tions, of course, have to be studied, and these offer many problems which do nog arise at Home. Mr. Dunstan, however, in the course of an interview with a press representative, showed quite clearly that is already cognizant of the principal difficulties he will have to counter. Ax he remarked, "Few People have as yet groat experience of the technical engineering dificult involved. Then there are language difficulties and the difficulty of providing adequate programme material. In any ease I start with an open mind in full realization of the "responsibilities of the opportunity. With patience I sincerely hope to make broadcasting in India a power for good and a valuable national service." With a man imhued with this spirit at its head there should be little doubt of the ultimate success of the scheme.
