ROAMING THE AIR WAVES

A Christmas Eve radio message hy Pope Plus xI will be heard over the National Broadcasting Com- paay networks at 6:30 Q. m., EST.r on Thursday, December 24. A spec iaI program of liturgical organ mus sc played by William Meeder from the New York NEG studios will open the networks at 6:15 a. m., fifteen minutes before the voice Of the POntiR will be heard.
 Promptly at 6:30 a. m., EST, the program will switch from New York to the Vatican City to pick up the annual blessing fthe Pope. As is usual when the Pope broadcasts, the program will originate over the Vatican station, HVJ. The message will be relayed by NEG to South America over shortwave facilities.
 It is possible because of his illness the Pope may deliver the address over Q Imicrophone set up In his bedroom. Cabled reports say that His Holiness would not agree to have the address read by some other church dignitary, insisting on delivering 1t in person.
 After the Pope's message has been delivered, the broadcast will shift back to the New York studios of the National Broadcasting Company. Liturgical organ music by Meeder and Q sixteen voice choir will then be heard until the regular penings of the networks.

elaborate on its alternatives before the
problem Is discussed at cabinet meet
ing Monday.
It said the Soviet request had raised
too many international and judicial
tangles. Legal circles, however, doubt
ed the Soviet government was en-
titled to demand Trotzky's expulsion
because he had been deprived of Rus
sian citizenship.
Trotzky Appears Furious.
Trotzky himself appeared furious at
the treatment accorded him. He shut
himself up with his wife in two isolated
rooms while sentries paced outside
his door.
Police guards kept him under con-
slant surveillance. With the excep-
ton Of Mrs. Trotzky. he was allowed
to speak to no one. was permitted
no visitors and was refused permis-
sion to make or receive telephone
calls.
Various unconfirmed reports circu-
lated concerning the steps which pre-
ceded Trotzky's virtual imprisonment.
Thc farmer party's leading news
paper, Nationen, said Trotzky refused
to agree to regulations governing his
stay and the cabinet took 1t as pre-
text to intern him and Offset censure
for harboring him at all.
Another version said the exile's life
was endangered by his refusal to
abide by the governments terms and
authorities lodged him behind q police
guard for his own safety.
Sharp words, the newspaper Aften-
posten said, passed between Trotzky
and the ministry of justice before
his interment was decreed.
~ am either a prisoner or free
man. If the latter Is the case can
sign no new agreements" it quoted
him as saying.
Trotzky's two secretaries, Erwin
Wolf and Jan Van Heinort, who were
ordered banished in the same decree
which interned him, were to be sent
to the Swedish border. Both were
said to be French citizens.

NORWAY STUDIES PROBLEM.
Trotzky in Seclusion Under Guard as
Officials Seek Next Move.


OSLO, Norway, August 20 R-
Norway studied with grave concern
tonight what to do with Leon Trotzky,
the exiled Bolshevik man without
country"
Threats from the Soviet government
that Trotzky's continued residence in
Norway might endanger friendly rela-
tions between the two countries
spurred Premier Johan Nygaardsvold
to urgent consideration Of the problem.
The warning from Moscow, con-
tanned in a note demanding expulsion
from Norway of the one-time Soviet
commissar of war, upset an earlier
plan to send him to the Norwegian
Siberia" The historic fortress Musk
,holnes on a tiny island of Trodheis,
lin the North Atlantic, had been men,
itioned as a suitable place for his
,anternment.
Now, however, officials are perplexed
twhere to send the gaunt, checked in
sternational terrorist" who is being
sheld incommunicado and under heavy
guard at the home Of q friend near
.Hoenefoss.
No Desire to HaFb0r Exile.
/ So far no. country has shown the
.slightest desire to harbor the exile
and authorities here said they were
convinced none was likely to invite
fhim-with the possible exception Of
Russia.
/ IF Trotzky can obtain q permit
from another country enabling him to
leave Norway we will heartily and
gladly get rid of him. said q ministry
,of justice spokesman.
! The governments difficulties become
more confused when officials diseov-
sered they lacked apparent authority

They learned he had no return visa
when he arrived from France last
Summer and feared, therefore, he
would have to remain in Norway un-
