The radio forum certainly is to
be a busy place this summer.
Tuesday night Senator George
Wharton Pepper, with a studio ad-
dress from WRC. drew many col
umns of attention in the nations
press which recounted the Pennsyl-
vania Senator's arguments for his
form Of World Court.
He also drew immediate fire from
the Democratic sections of the press.
Said the Democratic editors: Sen
ator Pepper would never have dared
to give his radio address In Con-
gress. There his arguments would
have been shattered Immediately
by his opponents and his espousal
Of such a plan would have been ex'
posed as a political trick"
That there was no need for these
fears that Senator Peppers re.
marks would go unchallenged was
shown clearly last night.
Two days later, from the same
rostrum from which Senator Pep
per spoke, came the voice Of Sen.
ator Swanson Of Virginia, Demo
crat, answering the Pennsylvania
Senator in no uncertain manner.
Thus does broadcasting go about
its unruffled way keeping to the
middle Of the road an dgiving both
sides of all questions.
Senator Swanson, speaking slowly
and with a Southern drawl, was
very easy to listen to. He employed
no fiery outbursts Of denunciation
