Report of a symposium on the relation of radio to rural life. 67 pages., Summarizes points brought out at the symposium attended by heads of agricultural colleges, executives of farm groups, editors of agricultural publications, members of State Departments of Agriculture and State Extension Services, legislators and other rural leaders. Also summarizes agricultural radio programs broadcast by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, its state extension services and the land-grant colleges in various states. Introductory paper by Brunner, editor of the publication.
Reports on a study of library access in rural areas. Results showed 47,054,168 rural people without library service in a U.S. population of 64,029,517. "Hence, it follows that the library falls somewhat short as an extension medium to influence masses of farm people."
