The Wanderlust
By HWSfON OROVEB
WASHINGTON - Chiang
Kai-shek, Chinese gener-
alissimo, is using a propaganda
trick that Washington officials
are watching closely and con-
sidering for possible use in South
America.
Chiang uses loudspeakers to
broadcast his propaganda. Reports
here say it is tremendously effec-
tive. It is hard for the Japanese to
stop.
An ordinary radio will do in a
pinch. It is tuned in on one of Gen-
eral Chiang's broadcasts and, with
the volume up, it can reach dozens
of Chinese wh6 otherwise neMrr
would hear a word of what is go-
i nff on except through the Japa-
nese. Chiang broadcasts in l8 dia-
lects during the day. <urgin£. Chi-
nese unity. It is his only way of
reaching his people. Probably not
one in ten thousand owns a radio.
In Latin America a similar situ-
ation exist* It is estimated there
are 2% million receiving sets in
Latin America. Only a fraction of
those are all-wave sets capable of
receiving short - wave broadcasts
from the United States, Germany,
or Italy.
a a- a
There Is A Catch
MOREOVER, it is likely that the
bulk of those all-wave sets are
owned in the upper social brack-
ets. That means that foreign
broadcasts likely reach only a re-
stricted list.
But a different situation would
develop if a few shops were in*
iuced to face their radios out into
the streets where up-country na-
tives. in for the market, might 11a-
ten to what is going on in fhb_
world as related by foreign broad-
casters. > J
Officials looking Into the ideaf
recognize difficulties. It is hard to,
persuade Brazilians or -Bolivians i
that they will be benefited by hav-
ing their citizens enlightened by
foreign broadcasts. The expecta-
tion is, however, that the Ameri-
can broadcasts will be so objective
and straightforward in presentin
news and other matter that no re;
objection cah be found.
So far the thing is just an idea.
As an Idea It has one notable draw'
back. The same loudspeaker that
would broadcast Yankee messages
of good will also could be used by
lue

Hitler.
That FCC Order
A LSO you may jUst as well know
** that the state department was
as much upset as the broadcast-
ing companies over that order of
the Federal Communications Com-
mission directing the big radio
systems to reflect only true Amer-
ican culture in their foreign pro-
grams.
For months the state department
has been working quietly with the
radio companies to design pro-
grams that would reflect American
culture and help promote the good
neighbor policy in Latin America.
There was nothing formal or offi-
cial about it, but it was operating
very well. Being patriotic didn't
Interfere with the revenue from
the foreign broadcasts. Not a hat-
ful of revenue comes from these
short-wave broadcasts.
But just as the thing was work-
ing along at its smoothest the com-
munications commission, long at
odds within itself, tried to make
it official by a formal order. The

had to be its very smoothest to re-
store the old accord with the
broadcasting systems.

VTEW YORK—Rockland county,
* ^ New York, is a celebrated sec-
tfon of the state, not too far from
Manhattan, which includes such
nice little towns as Nyack (where
Helen Hayes lives), Haverstraw
(where Postmaster James A Far-
ley used to play baseball) and
Pamona, which is near Spring Val-
ley, where Burgess Meredith has
a rambling white cottage. Play-
wright Maxwell Anderson, author
of "High Tor"-is a resident near-

rich in tradition rangihg.from the
Not long ago Prosecutor D*#Mr
dispatched Dixie Davis, former
"mouthpiece" of the Schultz gang,
to a Rockland County hideaway;
the estate of a friend, and kept him
there until needed as a witness in
one of his celebrated vice crusade
prosecutions.
When word of Dixie's where-
abouts became rumored, reporters
hastened to Rockland county,
chartered a plane, and flew over
the estate, hoping-to obtain some
pictures of the disbarred lawyer
and his fiancee, Hope Dare. But
Dixie remained indoors, and all
approaches to the estate were
patrolled by New York police.

complained so bitterly to Mr.

in which he declared that DeVis
