ever Not so easy and no buzzed or stung like the apis Early in January I reminded you bea of the trouble the presidential was expected to cause when I quoted Republican National Committeeman Clarence Budington Kelland’s remark: “ I don’t think you are going to candisee the matter (Republican dacy) jell at all until Ohio decides whether it’s going to be Taft or AlBricker” And it hasn't jelled Bricker though it was predicted to would bow out he has refused it is Taft bow Quite the contrary who is bowing— not out but to the demands of the right wing of the (Taft’s friends insist Brickparty er will exit at the right moment) was first obeisance But Taft’s l made toward the end of the He announced his ophearings of the position to the confirmation TVA head and did it with such absence of the famous Taft logic that went up all over the eyebrows for departing The reason place sense path that from the common bis superior intellect usually dictates soon became evident Simultaneously his control of the party in the senate began to slip That was seen in the vote on the In that case Taft took what budget most people considered the sensible course The four and a half billion cut rather than the six billion urged by the house to force Taft’s What happened WeU a statement? certain conservative commentator — criticized with what he talked Taft lack of implied was a dangerous comment There is no way for the to know about the proRussians grams since notice of them except over BBC apby announcement pears in no Russian paper How is it the Russians permit it at all? And even if they don’t put obstacles In the way will the Russians listen? Are there enough rareceivers to dio sets with make up a worth while potential audience? These are the questions I asked Til try to give some of the answers As It attitude to the Russian When the British seems negative about broadcasting to first talked Russia a Russian official is reported to have said: "We have tried to coYou have your operate with you kind of democracy You believe in So we have cofreedom of speech operated with you by sending you in English from Russia broadcasts We have our kind of democracy We do not believe in freedom of speech So we hope you will cooperate with our kind of democracy by NOT to us” broadcasting If that wasn't actually said it It is too good ought to have been to be untrue The British did not cooperate Neither did 11 other countries along with cluding Ecuador which the United States are all now beamon Russia I ing their programs don’t know about the others but the British seem to have quite a followare the Russian people ing and since more interested in America than In I see no reason any other country why the state department’s effort shouldn't be quite as successful What are the chances? In the first place radio listening has been developed in Russia People are encouraged to have sets and they are sets because method used is the communication by the Russian government That’s because of the great distance How many have sets? When Averill Harriman was there he made an estimate of 75000 sets A later estimate put the figure as to 75000 to a million According the Russian plan the goal We is 525000 for the first year know that the Russians seized all the radio sets they could in territory they also the government reoccupied turned all sets seized from Russian citizens during the war What Question tops the dome of the in Washington building C?
