THE
MANION
FORUM
For more than nine years, the
Manion Forum has been broadcast
ing a weekly radio program. The
time on the stations across the
country has been bought and paid
for by our sponsors and support
ers. Hundreds of distinguished
guest speakers have broadcast ov
er the Manion Forum network, and
none have been accused of using
it for libel, slander or. misrepre
sentation of fact.
The Manion Forum radio net
work has grown in nine years
from the original 29 stations to
more than 300 stations now. Mil
lions of people listen to our pro
gram every week. However, during
the past month we have been told
by one station after another that
its management is finding it im
possible to continue to broadcast
our program because of new and
confusing directives from the Fed
eral Communications Commission.
If these stations are correct in
their interpretation of this new
approach by the FCC then our
country is facing a dangerous
blackout on the freedom of speech.
Many of the stations are pro
foundly alarmed by this develop
ment but under the circumstances
' they are unable to speak for them
selves.
The listener is the customer at
which every program is aimed.
The simple law of supply, demand
and survival requires every pri
vately-owned and privately-con
trolled radio station to cater to
your wishes. Every radio and tel
evision station operates under a
special license granted by the Fed
eral Government through the Com
munications Commission. This
official pe -mission for the exclu
sive use of a designated air chan
nel puts certain basic responsibil
ities upon the licensee.
All of its broadcasting programs
must be decent and decorus. It
must not give scandal, distort the
facts nor permit its facilities to
be used for the defamation of any
person, group or institution. With
in these moral and legal limitat
ions, the radio station is expected
to speak out for good against
evil and to provide a fair forum
on reasonable terms for the dis
cussion of public questions.
A free radio is just as essential
to the public good of our free so
ciety as a free press. The conduct
of each radio station is reviewed
at the end of each three-year per
iod when the license is required to
be renewed.
In 1949, the F.C.C. made an of
ficial report known as the ’’Fair
ness Doctrine.” It stated, in part:
“In determining whether to honor
specific requests for time, the
station will inevitably be con
fronted with such questions as
whether the subject is worthy of
consideration, whether the view
point of the requesting party has
already received a sufficient am
ount of broadcast time, ***’.
The radio industry has operated
under this formula for 14 years.
It has worked well indeed. Sta
tions have refused to sell time to
prospective buyers, and some have
refused to sell time to the Manion
Forum.
On July 26, 1963, the individual
station was deprived of the right

Kitchen cabinet space is
a problem for many home
makers. It often happens
that there is room enough
for everything, yet shelf
spacing is such that some
items must be stored or
stacked behind something
else.
Adjustable shelves are a
simple solution for the
homemaker planning a new
home or installing new
kitchen facilities. For those
who have to "make do”
however, consider the idea of uti
lizing what may now be “wasted”
space.
For example, it is possible that
dishes arranged on lower shelf
may stack no higher than 4 to 6
indies, leaving several inches of
“unused” space above.
If this is the case, a short or
§53
narrow auxiliary shelf may be in
stalled to provide storage space
for saucers, cups or other narrow
items such as gravy boats,
glasses, etc.
Cut the auxiliary shelve 1%
inches shorter than regular
shelves and nail to cleats as shown
in ffiustration.
to determine whether to honor
specific requests for time, and the
Federal Communications Commis
sion placed the determination un
der complete federal control. The
Public Notice of July 26 provides
that “When a controversial pro
gram involves a personal attack
upon an individual or an organiza
tion, the licensee must transmit
the text of the broadcast to the
person or group attacked wherev
er located, either prior to or at the
time of the broadcast with a speci
fic offer of his station’s facilities
for an adequate response.”
Literally interpreted, if the
Manion Forum broadcast attacks
Khrushchev or Castro, each of our
300 stations must get the exact
language of our attack to both
of these characters wherever they
are located, with an offer of free
time for each to reply.
It must be assumed that if a
radio sports reporter declares that
the St. Louis Cardinals are super
ior to the Los Angeles Dodgers,
free time on the offending station
must be made available for an ad
equate reply by and for the Dod
gers. Or, if the “B Tobacco Co.”
pays for a commercial which al
leges that its package contains the
mildest cigarette on the market,
all competing companies can de
mand free time for their answers.
Until radio station operators
know exactly what the FCC means
by the order, they will be inclined
to avoid all discussion of issues of
public importance.
The directive will not interfere
with the approved “liberal line”
that flows in constantly over
the three big networks, but it
does mean that what you will
hear over the air when the new
rule is fully effective, will have
been approved by the Federal
government. This is centralized
censorship in its most reprehen
sible form.

HOW ABOUT A TRAILER PARK
AS A RETIREMENT PROJECT?
HpHE dream of operating a mo-
tel in retirement—which faded
away when big money moved in
to erect luxurious inns beside the
highways—may be coming back
in new form.
The 1963 dream is rising out of
the booming business of homes-
on-wheels, both the mobile homes
which are parked more or less
permanently, and foe travel trail
ers you see bouncing along foe
highways behind the family car.
It is foe travel trailer that is now
offering promise of a retirement
business.
Production of foe travel trailers
had almost quadrupled since 1956,
and in 1962 alone 58,000 new ones
rolled onto the highways. Sales in
creased 44 per cent in 1962, and
56 per cent in foe first three
months of 1963. An estimated 325,-
000 travel trailers are now in use.
And they need somewhere to
park.
This need has become “tremen
dous,” according td foe major
spokesman for the homes-on-
wheels industry, the Mobile Homes
Manufacturers Assn., and it is set
ting out to sell people on the idea
of going into foe travel trailer
park business . . . and making a
bit of money.
It has just published a brochure
called “Travel Trailer Parking”
which makes a pretty good case
for starting such a business, and
then tells how to do it.
There are two general types of
travel trailers, foe brochure ex
plains. One is foe “Independent,”
which has bathroom facilities,
waste tank, bottle gas for a stove,
water tank, and sufficient battery
power for appliances and lights.
It can operate on its. own for sev
eral days. The other is foe “De
pendent,” which usually has sleep
ing and cooking facilities only,
and needs hook-up services for
sewage, water, electricity, etc.,
when it parks.
There are two general types ef
parking facilities, foe “Ov<
which catches foe passing tri
as foe motel catches cars, and foe
“Destination” which is located
near scenic or recreational areas
and accommodates trailers for a
week or a month.
The brochure tells how to build
the * various types of facilities,
where to locate them, what to
charge, and even where you can
borrow the money to do all this.
The brochure isn’t free, but it’s
in the stamp-money class, and it’s
one of about a dozen publications
on trailers and trailer parks that
can be had for a small fee. If foe
idea of a trailer business inter
ests you, write to foe Mobile
Homes Manufacturers Assn., 20
North Wacker Dr., Chicago 6, Dl.
It would provide something to
do, and something to do is hard to
come by in retirement. It should
provide a means of making mon
ey. Which is harder to come by.
It would be a project through
which a retired couple could make
some delightful friends from all
over everywhere as they talked
with them over a campfire in foe
evening.

From Elizabeth Torrey Nedry,
Montrose, California: I remember
a long time ago when children
had chores to do. Even though
we were a village family with no
cattle to feed or eggs to gather,
mamma found plenty of ways to
keep six lively children from be
ing idle and to use up our surplus
energies.
We brought in foe wood and it
took a lot in northern Wisconsin;
the boys brought in the chunks
for the big heater and we girls
brought foe split wood, kindling
and chips for foe kitchen range.
We took terns cleaning foe ca
nary’s cage and supplying fresh
seed and water; we filled foe ker
osene lamps (and lanter for out
door restroom w&lks), shining foe
chimneys and trimming wicks.
When foe cistern was low, we
carried in snow for foe reservoir
attached to foe range. That was
an endless task as it took many
sled loads.
Papa always bought in quantity
so before foe winter was over foe
potatoes began to sprout and that
was a Saturday project.
One of us ran foe Bissell carpet
sweeper over the wall-to-wall rag
carpets. Dusting was monotonous
but best of all, I liked helping
with preparation of food; mani
pulating foe cherry pitter, turning
the ice-cream freezer on special
occasions, or shaking foe wire
corn-popper. Everything tasted
better because we felt we had
contributed, and NOTHING tasted
so good or remains in my memo
ry as “licking out foe bowl” when
mamma was making cake or
cookies.
Those were foe days before vi
tamins or problem children.

From Ruby Schafer, Burbank,
California: I remember foe time
when we didn't have so many
words to deal with—with all foe
new-fangled ones now-a-days, it
is hard for us old-timers to know
what’s cookin’. We had butter to
eat and it was real cow butter.
I also remember when white oleo
was introduced, and later when
we were sold a capsule of color
and were expected to color foe
oleo to look like butter—and if
it wasn’t mixed thoroughly it
was a mess. Also for shortening
we had real home-rendered lard,
except when we substituted but
ter. There were few canned goods
on foe grocer’s shelf, and it was
necessary for us to can and pre
serve in foe summer time and to
“fry down” foe meats and pack
them in lard for future use. We
didn’t know there was such a
word or thing as a germ-—we kids
all drank from foe same dipper
at foe “little red schoolhouse”
and flourished on it. We didn’t
know there was such a thing as
a calorie, to say nothing about
counting foem. We all had tasks
to do—not foe push-button kind—
and we kept slim and trim. Hie
Wrights had not flown at Kitty
Hawk, Tin Lizzie had not made
her showing; we used Old Dob
bin and Shank’s Mare to get
where we were going. We weren’t
educated to fear this and that.

The early Christiana, who al
most daily faced death and perse
cution because of their faith, found
courage in their belief in God.
In these modem times, we face
no penalty when we profess to
believe, yet we still have need for
the courage and strength that
Christianity has to offer.
The modem world offers much
that is a challenge to the Chris
tian way. In the field of business,
we often have the opportunity to
make moral decisions.
In social circles, we sometimes
encounter situations where it be
comes necessary to "stand up and
be counted."
In books that we read, or per
mit our children to reed, in mov
ies and other forms of entertain
ment, we must make some form
of self judgement
Our lives do not hang upon
the derision, but the choice we
make is still a good test of our
Christian ideals.
