Memories of the record d-breaking,
though unsuccessful, campaign
waged by Wendell L. Willkie for the
presidency last fall were revived by
the news yesterday that the Re-
publican National Committee has
received a bill for $4,000 from the
throat specialist who accompanied
the nominee on his whirlwind tour
of the country.
Receipt of the bill from DR..
Harold D. Barnard, Beverly Hills
(Calif) throat expert, was con-
firmed without comment by Chair
man Joseph w. Martin, jr., Of the
national committee. The bill is
said to be in the office of the COM
mittee treasurer in Chicago, await
ing the attention of the new treas
urer, Sinclair Weeks.
In Beverly Hills, DR.. Barnard said
submission of the bill was 'just
routine. 1t was based on the length
of time I was absent from my prac-
tice, little over two months" the
Associated Press reported.
Mr.. Willkie was on the threshold
of his long, fast swing around the
political circuit when his voice
cracked September IA under the
strain of strenuous succession Of
speeches in Chicago and other
Illinois cities.

Free Company Plans
To Publish ltsCiyi|
Liberties Broadcasfs
Modern 'PomphIeteers'
Counter Propaganda
Of Demoeroey's Foes

The radio series of dramatic cele-
brations Of American civil liberties
put on by the Free Company" has
aroused so much interest that the
full set of broadcasts will be issued
In booklet form when the programs
are concluded, James BOYD, national
chairman of the Free Company, who
found the idea for the programs dur
ing visit here last summer, dis
closed yesterday.
The Free Company, organized as
a group of 13 leading American
authors and playwrights in a coun-
terattack against hostile propagan-
das dissemination in the United
States, put on their sixth broadcast
today. The first two broadcasts
brought 2,173 letters to Mr.. Boyd
requesting booklets of the series.
The broadcasts are heard here over
Station WJSV. Today's goes on at
II pm.
The idea behind the program was
that the time had come to make use
of the radio as an instrument of
pamphleteering. The great day of
the written pamphlet was the 18th
century, century of striving
for liberty. The radio pamphlets,
Mr.. Boyd says, aim at a frank ap-
praisal of the freedom we wish to
retain and the faults we wish to re-
move"
A conversation at a dinner table
here last September over the con-
tribution that the American author
could make to the preservation of
the American liberties gave Mr..
Boyd the inspiration for the pro-
gram. He spent the fall and early
winter months developing it and in
enisting support. Associated with
him in the Free Company now are
Robert Sherwood, Maxwell Anderson,
Stephen Vincent Benet, George M.
Cohan, Marc Connolly, Paul Green,
Ernest Hemingway, Archibald Mac
Leish, William Saroyan, John Stein
beck. Elmer Rice and Orson Welles.
Each member Of the Free Com
pany prepares one program and pre-
sents it on his Sunday.
The late Sherwood Anderson, who
died in Panama, was a member of
the company. Mr.. Boyd said that
his last work was an unfinished
script for the Free Company.

But what worried his advisers was
that within 48 hours Mr.. Willkie was
scheduled to deliver the first major
speech Of his Western trip, at Cof-
feyville, Kans., on a national radio
hookup.
DIR. Barnard Arrives.
A wire also went out to DR.. Bar
nard, who looked after the valuable
vocal chords of some of Hollywood's
movie stars, asking him to meet the
campaign train in Kansas City the
next day. Reports at the time were
that Walter OKeefe, stage and
radio entertainer, who was in charge
of entertainment for the Repub-
lican National Committe, had heard
of the Beverly Hills specialist from
friend in the movie colony.
DR.. Barnard met the Republican
nominee in Kansas City Sunday,

ing complete rest for his voice pre-

WILKES throat would become Q
little husky, but never resulted In Q
slowing down of the campaign
schedule.
At the start Mr.. Willkie was
throwing all the power he could
summon into his voice In a desire
to drive home his arguments. One
of the first things his advisers had
to do was to induce him to rely on
the amplifiers to supply the volume.
Mr.. Willkie also made many Of
his speeches in baseball parks and
other open arenas, in chilly night
air, which added to the possibility
of throat strain. Covering nearly
10000 miles In two months, Mr..
Willkie set new pace for presi-
Dental candidates.
With delegations of local politi-
clans constantly boarding the train
in each State to meet and talk
with the candidate, one OF DR..
