Dear Sir:-

We have to advise you that, due to lack of community co-0peration. our plan to finance the broadcasting of the Church services on our high powered transmitter during 1928 was not successful. As a matter of fact it reenlted in a defecit, based on actual cost of

operation without salaries of any sort for the work, of approximately $1,000.00‘

We regret that our letter of last year was apparently misunderstood by the churches who received the benefit 0i the broadcasting services, for notwithstanding the fast that they were given the use OI a trans- mitter ten times as powerful as they had had the use of in the past with a considerable higher cost of up-keep, they reduced their con- tribution to the broadcasting fund to the vanishing point. Faced

as we are with the necessity of spending between $700.00 and $1,000.00 immediately for renewal partsto replace those worn during the past years operation we can not possibly begin another year broadcasting two services each Sunday without the financial support of each church organization based on a regular schedule or fees the same as is done in our neighboring cities OI Halifax and St. John.

We plan on brOadcasting only one Church service each Sunday and if your board is desirous of broadcasting over CFCY we would uote you a rate for twelve months. one Sunday service each month. of 225.00.

We would be glad to have your acceptance or refusal of this quotation at your earliest convenience so that our schedule for the coming year may be completed as soon as possible.

For your information we would point out that in the city of Halifax a_similar service costs nearly twenty percent more than we have
