LONDON. — Television hasn’t
turned the British into stay-at-homes
by any means, the British Broadcast-
ing Corporation said today.
It said that television is popular,
but admitted that its “power to keep
people at home is much less than has
sometimes been suggested.”
The BBC said in its annual report
that the average fan spends eight
hours a week watching TV programs
—even after the novelty of this new
set has worn off. But, it added, he
achieves this by rearranging his
schedule and cutting down on other
home activities, rather than spending
more time at home.

For the first time within the mem-
ory of Sun editor, this newspaper is
publishing paid political advertising
in a presidential campaign. There
are two such advertisements this
week, one paid for by local Eisen-
hower supporters, and the other by
the chairman of Texas Democrats for
Eisenhower. The Stevenson sup-
porters have thus far limited their
newspaper advertising to daily news-
papers.

Several persons have asked if The
Sun printed “The Native Texan,” the
Eisenhower-Nixon 4-page tabloid
which they received through the post
office during the week. No, we had
nothing to do with that. It bore a

fore printed in Dallas, and we under-
stand it was widely distributed
throughout the state. The Sun has
been receiving a similar publication
boosting the Stevenson-Sparkman
ticket. It is an 8-page tabloid called
The Democrat.”
