"WHEN television becomes an established, perfected mode of entertainment and the ownership of the centers of broadcasting becomes more concentrated — which present tendencies indicate as probabilities in the near future — problems galore, of astoundingly new and as yet undreamed of complications, must follow in natural sequence. A few of these problems — with their cleverly ingenious solutions — are propounded by our contributor from H. G. Wells' country. We are glad to welcome our new English author to our midst."
