Because Rollman Calls FCC Equal Time Decision Insane Heinz Rollman, Waynesville in dustrialist, commented recently on the 'equal time decision handed down by the Federal Communica tions Commission ? FCC) that would force radio and television stations to allot equal time to all candidates seeking elective office. "If this grossly unfair decision of the FCC is allowed to sand", declared Rollman, "it will not be fong before newspapers will also oe forced to allot equal space to any and all candidates seeking public office. This would be synonymous with doing away with the free press in our country, or any free news media." "The FCC decision stated that a radio or TV station if in its news broadcasts it reports about one candidate, for instance for one min ute, or for that matter 100 times for one minute, all candidates seek ing the same office can ask for the same amount of time". Roll n>an comments that obviously, to make this equal tie decision more interesting for viewers or listeners, the only alternative these free media have, when there is noth ing worthwhile to say about a candidiate is to repeat the candi date's name for 60 consecutive minutas, or whatever time he has to be given free. "This, however." said Rollman, "is only the beginning of this mon strosity. When it comes to news papers, it becomes even sillier" Examination Set For Topton Post mastership An examination for Fourth-Class Postmaster for the post office at Topton.
