with an awesome sense of RESPONSE
bility. But / hope it never muzzles
me. What it does do. I trust, is to
impel me to be fair. My ield Is the
thinnest ice that can possibly be
crossed by radio--politics. Politicians
are as sensitive as the works of a
watch and have to be handled al
most as gently. The air teaches the
wisdom of caution and has induced
me to cultivate the fine art of under
statement.
Sometimes when lean backward

"He didn't roast anybody, and I hung

best
Which spurs me to remark that
Congress seeks no vote of sympathy
for the slings and arrows of which,
since time immemoria1, it has been
the target. Congress, like the late
Phineas T. Barnum, master Snowman,
believes that 1t is better to be abused

Often we desire to operate the loud

The simplest way to do this Is to buy
sufficient length of ordinary electric
