Voice of America" Is Broadcast Hn Many Languages

Headquarters, Alaskan Com mand, April 19-the State De- partment's "Voice of America" with programs originating al- most entirely from studios in New York--are currently broad cast in 25 languages, including such various tongues as Mandar- in, Ukranian, IndoneSian and Arabic. Under an expa n d d schedule, other language pro- grams will be added. Almost every day, some 70 separate programs are broadcast. Thirty eight transmitters are used to broadcast by short wave out of the United States to all areas, and relay stations are now oper- ated in Manila, Honlulu, Tan gier, Munich and Slonika. In ad- dition, several transmitters are leased from the British Broad casting Corporation for relay of broadcasts. Specific programs are relayed locally in over 25 different countries.
 This information is taken from a booklet published by the State Departments information and educational exchange pro- gram, telling Americas story abroad" The same b ook le t states: "The only American pub lication which is permitted to be distributed in Russia is the in format to Life Magazine, Am erica is edited in New York and it's text translated into Rus sian in Moscow. It explains and depicts American life but con- tains no controversial or politi- cal material. The magazine is distributed through Soviet Gov ernment channels, where it is censored before it appears on the neWsstands. The magazine has proved very appealing to the Russian people, so much so that the Soviet press has attemp- ted to counteract its effective ness by charging the magazine with lying and 'decadence.' An Arabic edition of America, similar in format and content to the Russian edition, is issued going to Arabic-speaking areas in the middle east and Africa" "

|BiII Filed 10 Project
Employers From Loss
In Consortium Suits

| Congress had before it today
new legislation to exempt employ
ers here and elsewhere from work
mems compensation suits by
women claiming damages because
negligent injuries to their hus-
bands deprives them of con-
lSortium.
| A bill to this effect was intro
Iduced in the House yesterday by
Chairman Mcmillan Of the House
District Committee. It would
Iamend the National Longshore-
mems and Harbor Workers Com
'Ipensation Act. This law applies
to the District. as well as to the
Irest Of the country.
/ The measure was referred to
the House Committee on Educa-
ton and Labor.
OutgrOwth of Case Here.
The bill is the outgrowth Of a
case here in which a wife won
from the Court of Appeals a de-
cision establishing her right to
sue for damages for loss of con-
sortium. This is a legal word for
marital relations.
officials of the Board of Trade
said the appellate court decision
had caused alarm throughout the
business world because of the pos
Isibility of many claims being filed.
The case involved Pierce Hitaf-
fer, a maintenance mechanic. then
I63, and his wife. She sued the
Argonne Co.. Inc, of this city, for
$4,000 damages for an injury to
Mr.. Hitaffer. He fell from a lad
der in December, 1947.
Because he was covered by
workmen's compensation, his part
of the suit later was dropped. But
counsel for the wife pressed her
claim.
Mrs. Hitaffer lost in District
Court, but on appeal the District
Court of Appeals. on May 30, 1850.
reversed the lower court and
established the right Of woman
to sue for damages when a negli-
gent injury to her husband de-
prives her of a sexual relationship
with him.
Ruling Upheld Wife's Right.
This decision was regarded as
more important because the right
Of the wife was upheld, even
though the husband was protected
by workmen's compensation.
\ The case was carried to the Su-
preme Court, which refused to re-
view 1t.
The appellate decision found
that women have the right to sue
for loss of their husbands COM
panionship. love, material services
and sexual relations. when the
loss is caused by a negligent in
Jury to the man.
Trade board officials contended
their research showed that the
appellate court decision here was
the only one of its kind in the
country. Other tribunals have
taken an opposite view. they said.
