GREEN HAS FINE
VOICE FOR RADIO

Washington, ID. c. e. l.. N. 81
William Green is being congratulated
as the possessor of one of the best
radio voices heard over the air this
year.
Green's excellence in this respect
was demonstrated in his Labor Day
speech, given at Cleveland and car
ried over the National Broadcasting
network His voice came over the air
with all the power and expression of
a personal appearance.
President Green's speech over the
radio demonstrated that the even, fiat
tones usually held to be best for the
microphone, are not necessity and
that a speech delivered with expires
sion, feeling and volume will carry a
well or better.
Not only did President Green score
heavily over the radio, but he scored
equally well in the talking movies,
where he was given an unusually lorg
appearance, his voice coming out with
clarity of tone and force of expression.
