    Broadcast news again wins vote of confidence from public The plenty among the problems of children's TV IMMIF "I BroadcastBroadcasting oNov20 The newsweekly of broadcasting and allied arts Our 42nd Year 1972 AP Through the Years- - GANDHI AND THE AP "I suppose that when I go to the Hereafter and stand at the Golden Gate, the first person I shall meet will be a correspondent of The Associated Press." These words of Mohandas Gandhi to AP correspondent Jim Mills in 1932 were spoken in mock seriousness after the Mahatma had been secretly re- leased from a British prison. When Gandhi was whisked away to a railroad station miles from where he was con- fined, Milis was waiting on the platform to interview the great leader of India. It was before his confinement that the Mahatma had sought a promise from Mills that says something further about the AP. He asked that The Asso- ciated Press continue to inform the American people of the exact situation in India at that time, with fairness and full justice to all sides. This is one more example of the faith placed in The Associated Press and the dedication and accuracy of its staff in serving the AP membership for the last century and a quarter. In 1940, The Associated Press inaugurated its specialized news report to the broadcast industry. Today, the AP Broadcast News wire is the longest single circuit in the world, operating 24 hours a day, every day, serving more than 3,300 radio and television station members. The national, regional and state reports are prepared by staffers exclusivelyfor broadcast.
