W3XAI-in New York. Columbia
Broadcasting System operates sta
ton W2XE. Nine out of ten Ameri-
cans who know NBC and BCS very
wen, have never even heard of these
stations let alone tuned in on their
programs. Yet thousands of men
and women in the four corners of
the world look on W3XL and
WaXAL and WOKE not only as the
sources of much fine music and en-
tertainment but as three small voices
Of democracy penetrating over the
roar Of Fascist propaganda.
Not Propaganda Officially
Of1cially, Of course, neither the
MEG nor CHS shortwave stations
nor any other Of the short wave
spots are engaged in the business
OF trying to counterbalance the stuff
coming over from Europe. They are
merely-at great cost-broadcasting
sustaining programs Of music, COM
mentary, talks and news In a num-
Der Of foreign languages and at
hours when European and South
American listeners can catch them
best.
Whatever the intentions of these
stations, however, the European
and South American fans soon be-

letters. uring the recent war crisis
aAistener wrote from Italy to inform
,NBC that through it he had heard
that Mussolini was going to Munich
fully two hours before the Italian
official radio announced this impor-

letter came from an English
listener. IT heard the news of

Important, it was regarded as of
little value until 1896 when Nal
Germany, seeking propaganda out

stations to publicize the Olympics.
After the games were over, Germany
continued broadcasting, especially
into South America.
ShOrtwave Neglected
American radio interests had
shortwave outlets but were for
the most part neglecting them or
operating on irregular schedules.

Washington, Nov. 11-Tom Dewey
will continue to be a Republican
presidential possibility, despite his
defeat by Gov. Herbert Lehman.
Only q few votes-less than 10000
among nearly 5,oOo,OOO-have kept
Dewey from becoming almost a
sure-shot for the 1910 nomination
and reduced him to the ranks on a
more or less even basis with other
G. o. p. hopefuls. The group now
includes two other New Workers,
Mayor LaGuardia, who already
seems to be flirting with the third
party idea, and Bruce Barton. Their
names would have been erased from
the board had Dewey become gov
ernor.
