I'm sorry Pete is here today because I know he'd love to see it. Already I'm informed that Pete inspected it and approved it and gave it his OK and I think that by now it's not all right you surely recognize that voice Yes that was my only Gladia We have new power new events to record for the public ear one of them containing sentiments probably common to most New Yorkers of the day a lot of punk. Days man when it was always a pop and on the civil side data rate of pay. And I think that that said just a lot of noise and talk to cover all the other. Banks that they've made in the different apartments and not living up to their. OWN of McDaniel's an economy. Now. We're not allowed to increase this. And I was only allowed to increase the capital of my budget. At that time of the doc around four hundred thousand dollars. And when it was sent back to the MC. Made it like what a back in the budget. In other words I'd say it was pulled out of my cash and happened. I'm not and. I'm not afraid to criticize American products but I think that the different apartments. On the other member states can reduce this without affecting any of the employees from city hall the budget hearing and then the world became smaller all events and actions looming larger to each of us my countryman and my friends. One night my finger beauty. Of America. And. The money. I had hoped to gain. Some merit. Prevented a devastating loss. And bring to an end the end oh I'm by drowning. And constant cry thing. And have breath. Bring on the conflict which is the day. It is right that I should recall being on my mind. And the time. I have got a month in the privacy. Of the United States. Be. Ready when. I think you have every right and every reason to. Maintain as a next. Fundamental no love in the teachings of religion I can think you are about. Me. Some day time and maybe. You can be a great help. The war brought problems to New York and New York's mayor met them I walked around on. That wing. And. Right. Anyone. And then yeah let the world. Well know. That. The Napthine Government. Is masterminding. Japanese policy. And the actions taken by the Japanese government. To sap the know. It was carrying out. The now known map the ME. I. Have Naga spies surprise. Sarla there is no doubt. That the bogs and gangs this now are controlling that not sane governments. Are responsive. And has guided. The Japanese government. In the attack. On American territory. And the attack. On the Philippine. Islands. But I have gone. I want to run the people out this that they. And on the Atlantic coast. That we must not and cannot. Feel secure are already sure it's. Because we are on the Atlantic coast. And the activities. Of the five to known have taken place in the Pacific. We must paint a bad thought anything at any time among his other activities his Honor the Mayor played straight man to Al Jolson all right but right as a matter. I'd like to present a part of sanitation. Like that in the bar of when this morning when do I get the keys that I say. I'd like to receive this problem out of metal that will wait and see. Jane that. He's in the. Next line to get these to the city. Where even given the key to this. Back. I was only a kid but the man you don't know what a time I've had getting that stuff I called in on one housewife when I write about doing. The collecting or metal. Rings and things like that well he didn't get it so I said look I'm to got anything in our house. That doesn't. Place back now. Because back to Roman point without direct reply to my brother Mark it says take if you have been working twenty years. Ending up on our own we. Need to. Find it right away. And I. Don't have fundamental. Every lapse of time I can buy it off my back and everything you don't need your boss comes close content and knows where no one. Got it and that's why that now you know. Where. You can see we all had a more personal approach to the time. Then how the more personal meaning in this small world public service for a while meant this. But children I know you're are disappointed today that you didn't get the funding so got around and talked about the place you today and Maurice every afternoon I want you to fix the time and don't tell me that you haven't got time on the program because what something programs are not so hot so you can always find some space now I want a program every day as long as the papers are not being delivered the findings from the children you'll find someone like the quantities and who can describe them and if you can't find anybody else I'll do it haven't got time to do it but I'll do it now I want something like this not yet it is Dick Tracy you'll remember and lastly when NAB at the Garden was stabbed Well the first picture shows the god now on the fly and he's bleeding profusely and then there's a cut off picture of the Tracy and uniformed police officer and a detective and Mrs Van Hoosen leaning on her again and that's just a reminder as far as happened up to date band and victory scene is here and he's calling the main Zack in ice and the god name is on the fly and Mrs Ben Your resume is alongside Tracy and he said the stab Gardner the empty missing bag that made Skakel circumstances seem too obvious that must be a catch. And then the next but Jack is Dick Tracy with is fine chiseled profile and talking to a good deal five Mrs bankers and you said the neighbors are no one's business and whose names. Only two and then the outside is bad news. Imagine breathless committing a murder like this and then calmly returning to the high but you've got to find a new start in the place you remember that. Was. Taking a job as a maid I was put in long gray in the laundry bag and then that and the next picture is a grounding bag and it's a throwback to the last scene yesterday the last. Long you see the inside of the laundry. Laundry bag and the breath is among among the bags in. And close the door. Takes the money out of that the pot that she had eaten and she says. Just what I need. The money from the Congress roasting pan to locate and we take all the money in. And then the next thing. Is a long way in just a blade vibing along and. Something we don't know if. Filling all over the place there with the laundry bag and the old open and the money is all over the. Need to. Be tucked in and you can see the out the driveway and the language right of people on the blacklist. Opens the door and. Wow man. All the money. What was just fine just how long have you been on it I have I been following you around my mama I have atoned me. With pride that what happens tomorrow and we elect to knowing case you can get. On with the plan. But that was then we've come of age now and we're too old for comics the war matured us and day by day as W. N.Y.C. brings us the news the news brings us reality it's the world of reality we're interested in now a world of the United Nations and England that meeting. All your D.S. is a monster like all cities can you speak. Or small body that. I'm. The one negotiating between my palate be the man to get hold of a scone Thanks for the fat it's a good idea I mean it that definitive money but there's a lot on this you're not lying. The two countries who had to get. Information should. Get. A world of national affairs Let's turn to periodical Iran or periodical I think you know for a number would you. Be. Going to. Have periodic. Pictures cartoons humor. One of the. Programmers are going to. Be using a. Picture. Of an important player. To a pin up. I don't know what he's referring to with a pen and we can all laugh on that one. The first time I've seen and. Here's a pretty detailed just. Trust. Anti-communist idea of. Running up the thirty thousand books. My communist authors. Really. Document. I don't. Think. It's a world problem. Program. As a man who lives on upper Broadway rather urgently asked this what he called the Puerto Rican problem of the race he seemed rather bitter about the fact that Puerto Ricans were living in New York City at all would you care to comment on the situation as well as we are now the Puerto Ricans people from the island of Puerto Rico who are here our fellow citizens they have every right to be here I think many of the problems that we have here particularly in the field of housing and employment. As as as it relates to our fellow citizens from Puerto Rico is greatly exaggerated. And I and I have said after the shooting for instance the other day in Congress that it was a reprehensible thing but we cannot blame the the vast majority of supply to reconsider here for the actions of just a few a good hardworking people who come here to find a Bennett economic life greater security for themselves and for that family I might say to that according to the figures of our Department of Labor. Department of Welfare they're only a small percentage I think it runs about six to seven percent of them on relief as compared to say four percent for the general average and that actually if they were not here many of our important industries could not function our hospitals our hotels where they supply the as they work in the service finally the world of down to earth problem it seems that the flood areas concentrate and say the Middle Bass Brook in the area beat that's near Saints and they are you know how it thinks they're Idlewild and just about the whole south to us that now I'm at the Coast Guard like oh station that Rockaway and Sandy Hook we had a number of people available they had come to the state and scaring because they think they have and at Monmouth beat the sea wall. Which. Station basement flooded and had some impairing effect on communications. With the families along that narrow path so I would have rarely homework. What a website forty mile an hour winds flatters the. Ex-Pirate half a mile and a. Half mile from the fork of what. Family for that dog to find that far in their. Own Way to water to say. That in fact farming crops direct direct area back away. Sales of any. Graphics Hiatt with the. That's a taste of the present but let's go back again to one hundred twenty four I brought all of our random E.G.F. make believe that our off only N.G.'s. Interactive. Raccoon cost OK I was wearing on the hollow marshmallow all the Sharon I'm so. Good in the back of. Our grade I have popularity in all of the most done part and I don't enjoy all. Ten bucks down and all it's magic you know when I read seldom Sharrock times are just. Another act. Yes the good old days when the flappers and their friends were beginning to settle down and take up good cause when the immigrants of the early one thousand nine hundred were learning from their children new ideas new ways of life people were beginning to be interested in health and sanitation child psychology and I first logbook register that interest on July thirty first from eight fifty eight to nine o five P.M. Dr best of the Health Department spoke on the duty of the public the good doctor was sandwiched between a rendering of memory lane and seal it with a kiss. By the steeplechase orchestra. On August second W. J. McAuliffe told New Yorkers to keep your children off the street and was followed by Jimmy sharers interpretation of a love grab. These occasional broadcast through the years developed into the daily series we know now bringing the sound medical advice of reputable physicians and dentists of our city's health department and other medical groups to the willing ears of the health minded they've developed to end the daily nutritional and marketing services which are well on the way toward making dietary experts of New York Housewives we've medical information above the home remedy level two on the plane of lectures to the laity the great artist of the barrow didn't detect nearly as much of our time about voting sixty depicting forty even Ruben although he is Michaelangelo's Aaron anatomical knowledge probably. Moa by copying anatomical drawings of Leonardo Michelangelo in Calcutta and by the Saxon Takada and comical illustrations have so much information that painted could make themselves models the painting out of little wax doll with accurate modeled and correct proportions. When these dolls are bent in the attitudes of flying and then go by thread in the shop light of a candle they help the painter like to wrestle to paint those plunging soaring angels imposes that no living model can hold without cow cars would cut that hard to imagine how a barrel car could have achieved its conquests of the air. Nowadays modern painting and sculpture would seem to go on far away from classical in acting. Here we examine a juvenile delinquent in police custody to discover why did he do it. As I talked with Albert It seemed to me his whole youth had said her dad outwitting authority when you're going to have a little when you play. Most the time with a lot of other fun. And what kind of play did you going to. Try on holding right breaking into to do with my. People and then that broke in the stuff so. When lie it is instead just bought me a car thank God Whatever good camera watches pencils and she said we just broke into sound and we want to pose a touch that gave us a thrill I wanted to do with the stuff but mention God must tell you straight away there's another aspect of health to that of a fully competent medical profession to Hilario there was nothing for it but to bring the latest medical information to New York physicians at their own request in our unique broadcast for doctors on like the objective of public health practice is to improve the health of the people the recognition of nutrition as a major factor in the health of the individual is well documented therefore the understanding of the factors involved in the production of nutritional disturbances is of importance to all interested in public health problems the field of nutrition must cross the boundaries of all of the conventional public health discipline when hypocrisy suggested that eating raw liver would cure night blindness he was applying nutrition to the cure of a specific condition. The tendency to apply specific facts to the cure or alleviation of specific conditions an individual dominated the application of the science of nutrition up to the post world was one area that may sound somewhat involved to those of us who are just occasional patients but in terms of our wellbeing it makes a lot of sense another sensible approach to health is the preventive one which starts at the very beginning of life and with your city stations basic approach to a problem we went to the source with our series bringing up maybe. But New Yorkers are neither hypochondriacs nor are they one track mind and they have a variety of interests not fostered merely by medical broadcasts they're interested in mental health as they go a step further toward developing it to the extent that they can better cope with the problems of the day for this reason your city station has traveled from the talks like the function of the Bureau of records by Dr William J. gold boy and the one called the trend of the times by Dr as in Asher of the Board of Education presented by the way in October of our first year of operation to the more extensive educational shoulders like this one quite soon after the Norman Conquest English had a taking of French to it but let's jump back beyond ten sixty six and listen to anguish and it's hard to tonic infancy as Anglo-Saxon The Lord's Prayer in the year one thousand and eighty. One shelf and it's and I'm the guy has got to the collecting that he can get water this in will loan you often. Or not get the one lick and he laughs the last a day. And for. This West where we forgive us move them at Nagle lead to a sun cast in a Allissa says a fella so speak a language there is a function of time and even modern English still keeps the record of that Norman Conquest the Saxons became the servants and looked after the beasts while they were alive and their names are still the Saxon ones ox cow sheep swine compare the German. Culture shock line but when they were killed their meat was served up to the Norman master and on the table those animals names are still the norm and one beef veal mutton pork compare the French this role model for language reflects culture language from the prize winning series the ways of mankind next from the lectern series at New York's Cooper Union always create your enemy is as their name might they be your ally and I always treat your ally that they might someday be your enemy. This is not Macchiavelli and cynicism This is elementary political wisdom we've forgotten and one hundred forty five with the ever getting in today but me and I spent has been I mean in one hundred twenty we created Russia and our enemy in Germany and Japan our friends and our allies in the one nine hundred thirty. We perceive. It Germany and Japan. In their new bids for world power were our potential enemy is and that Russia would be a most US vote portentious ally if we and the Russians had been able and willing to make our alliance in time in the one nine hundred thirty S. We could have halted World War two before it begins but we were unable or unwilling to become open allies until we were both attacked by the common enemy and then we assume we here in America then a human contrary to all reason and contrary to our history that Germany and Japan were our enemies for ever and it Russia would be our ally forever and in late May we suddenly realize what a sense of shock that Russia was our enemy and we needed Germany and Japan and our and I and now we are committed as irrevocably to this position as we were committed to an equally temporary and granted to our position ten years ago and as we were committed to a different but equally temporary intransigence I positioned twenty five years ago when do we learn in a game of power politics that all positions are temporary and transitory and it therefore we should never irrevocably adopt any particular position and permanent another educational series that won awards was people under communism they seems to me that in one respect. The Soviet years ago the Florida Keys are certainly hopelessly not Western I mean that we'll never get together I don't think on our standards because they've gone a step beyond sorest Russia now in the days of the SARS musicians whose. Products were judged by the political aspect of the words that he happened to set to music and now we have the spectacle of music being judged by political standards which to me is completely bewildering and I don't see how any fair appraisal of this is possible and finally the Jeffersonian heritage how can a newspaper become more useful perhaps an editor might begin a reformation in some such way as this device his paper into four chapters heading the first truths the second probabilities the third possibility is and the fault lies in the first chapter of true it would be very short as it would contain just one more than authentic papers and information from such sources as the editor would be willing to risk his own reputation the second of probability is would contain walked from a mature consideration of all circumstances his judgment should conclude to be probably true this should contain too little rather than too much the first and fourth containing possibilities and lies should professedly be for those readers who would rather have lives for their money than the blank paper they occupy. That's strong stuff but New Yorkers have Hardy constitutions they like to relax to and enjoy some blend of faith still food for thought however our listeners have a definite ideas of what is suitable to their mental appetites the diet list includes a multitude of things music drama all the good things American culture has to offer we don't mean to say this wasn't true in one hundred twenty four New York of thirty years ago I had culture in mind too but in fewer minds at any rate judging from my log book number one one might say so with some assurance in the realm of drama we find listed on a tile stone Bryce whom we believe to have been a Shakespearean actor in readings of Oliver's speech from As You Like It Shylock from the Merchant of Venice Mark Antony is all ration from Julius Caesar and Sebastian's return a monologue an interlude of Hawaii and music followed we had lots of music even then like this. That's the way we sounded then this is the way we sound today puke YOU FUCK YOU. You hear the difference of course but that's another story the one I want to tell you is the story behind the early music you see in the early days of radio stop me if you are old enough to remember this no one had heard of sponsors and it was the performer who paid for air time that's right and I was the only noncommercial station W. N.Y.C. was bombarded with requests from top flight bands to pay the costs of broadcasting from plush bandstand just to be heard on this new popularity builder radio so there we were then Bernie the Knickerbocker Serenade is Paul Whiteman a sprig old and his fourteen Virginians Vaughn to leave in compositions like sunrise a new test a stop teasing me and bringing home the bacon to classical minded could hear violins soloists piano soloist and vocalist in live recitals of music from the repertoire anything more ambitious impossible we went on proved nor was there enough room symphony that was in the big concert halls and stayed there until the day when the popular bands began to find sponsors and the start of commercial radio began to rot then someone brought us some records including the London again this week by Eric coats and the masterwork are was born. Of course our original benefactor on anon song was just a lazy music lover who could now hear his beloved symphonies with dogs which you record all New Yorkers and his new and non-necessary phonic record presentation of course we didn't stop there we presented more and more good music as the need for it grew as inevitably a dead for New Yorkers never knowing that they like to continue to ask for more of course this led to explanations of the why of it which accounts for. One But David Randolph and music for the gun aside it's doubtful whether instruments can really achieve certain things at the human voice can do yet the vocal concept motivates a lot of music sometimes a conductor when he rehearses an orchestra will plead with the players to make their instruments sing the music above all there is an ideal of performance that attempts to approach the human voice as its goal. Just as there are certain realm that singers cannot achieve there are certain things that are outside the scope of instruments the realm in which the voice is supreme the pictorial expression of emotion is really the property of the voice it wasn't so easily and so realistically expresses our feelings I'm going to play for you next what I might call a distilled example of that portion of the work in which the only things heard are voices and percussion instruments. At the moment I'm not concerned about the you like that or not but anybody to say that it left absolutely what it was something about the mounting intensity that sort of get you right in the middle part of it of course was the result of the rhythms and the increasing. But a good deal of its effectiveness. You heard and as I said it was not necessary to understand what was going to get the sense of excitement and. The voice of that kind of expression just by mention the fact that there are certain things the instruments can do the voices can. I think that's one realm in which no instrumental transcription could achieve the effect of the voices. And of course that was an outstanding example of its kind. Now suppose we go to another work of an entirely different kind was that we want to know what that was it was a section of the work. Called. And with the growth in music came the growth of music as reflected in our annual American music festival. Eyeopening concert offers a varied programme of works by American composers you will hear the Sonata Fabiano and percussion by Peggy Glanville Hicks music for woodwinds by author Berger and Ivan Lang struck a sweep for piano by Douglas Moore a concerto for trombone oboe and strings by Sam riffling songs by Alan Copeland Jonjo for not often Richard Hagerman and a quite had by Benjamin Leeds first group of performers are on stage now and are ready for the opening work in our festival concert colors show to knock the eminent Spanish conduct in our visiting this country will conduct Peggy Granville Hicks Sonata for piano off and percussion. The poor. The poor the or are. Poor. Well let's not stop there every aspect of our culture has been explored and expanded in our festivals those veritable immersions in art books great players education I think the first thing that would strike anyone looking at this part of that with the museum's collection is the extraordinary diversity of styles ranging from the most extreme realize them to complete abstraction and any cover idea of subjects from a child looking at a tenement window to a disembodied head resting on the fan just a bit too random I do not suppose that there has been a period in the whole history of American art which has produced so many serious artists and so many different solutions to our age old search for truth. I'm afraid to do that John because I've seen so many novels that look as if they would be a classic And then what about. On most everything that you wrote. One of our. Favorite. A great deal particularly. The sound in the fairy and the bad the long story the bad part about Scott fish. I would. Instead of saying Gatsby First I would say the Side of Paradise you would get out of. And what about Thomas Thomas Wolfe I. Think when you're writing about American but. Something missing when two human beings come together. So long as it's nature rocking around the play there is great Terentia lyric. And there is a final question I think that's why so many young people. Are going to. Take care of. So. Healthy. To. Probably. Think. They're not. Just the old fashioned mother God bless her make things simpler because her values were absolute I meant to say before that the difference between the old mother there is that the old mother says the teacher is right and she defends it even though that she may be wrong she says the teacher's right the young mothers are going to register Have I told you the story register her five year old in kindergarten says that the teacher Gregory has been brought up very intelligently if he does anything wrong hit the child next day and that will teach him a lesson. Now that what I mean by synthesizing the whole situation in one line is right now the all fashion mother would walk in and I knew her attitudes immediately I knew just what to expect I also knew what to expect of the mother who had read a book because oh I say that respectfully every mother should read a book you should read a lot of books but an digested psychology is one of the greatest problems of this era as you know every man is a psychoanalyst every man is like I address you can stop a manager if you know what's wrong with that fellow is twitch as this is the generation Hey just the edge and everybody's an analyst Well there's all mother walking the girl said she wanted to leave school because I wouldn't let her leave school he was fifteen years of age so I said your mother she brought her mother in the run from her mother she says shoot me I'm not going to school when it should be now the young mother would take the psychological approach she would say to me and I don't get excited how do you know they'll get emotional about it but I'd sit down and this guy says they need diligent gradually he says to thing you know a whole month is so huge you said first break a leg. There's a take a large appetite to consume all that but don't forget New Yorkers have an insatiable appetite to tell the truth it wasn't enough we couldn't stop an American culture for what is that but a mixture of every culture in the world those immigrants of the one thousand nine hundred who are now grandparents and great grandparents brought many things with them which they may have wanted to forget but now their children and grandchildren have come to feel pride in their heritage is and want to explore them so we have gone to the world for that world of material that can best be appreciated in this microcosm New York. One actually found that that's not to get your quick fix the good think you might not be delighted if you. Called on me. The day. You. Said consistently that. It's excellent to have a giant thanks. To you just like a giant great man found self Joe would never be quiet for every tilting petty officer would use his head and for fun nothing but found that many people have allowed around with that shop and suffer. Then the soft left. Press and. Shut. I'm going to close the door in the corner so forgot to look. At your word hero there feel left out we certainly hope not we wouldn't want to make you feel that here at W N Y C We listen to our own health programs and we know that's not healthy lest some of the finest of the world's words be Greek to you we more than encourage you to listen to other tongues when we issue you the invitation let's speak French Spanish German Italian We assure you if you do you may well be able to join us in such a conversation as whatever we call it was the name I was just wow i didn't he still has obliged to want to of course. Divino appear to do a personae. That's not just the theme of it I think a lot of the first god. I'm God in our language classes we translate that for you but I don't think it's necessary now some things are self-explanatory. In the ultimate analysis the possibilities of man are infinite and we owe it to one another to help everyone realize his potential radio as a means of communication with many as a responsibility which increases with each new lesson or more than material things man needs human dignity human understanding to live we must reach as many with as much of human values as is possible. For thirty years New York's own radio station has held to this am presenting three decades of increasingly important broadcast material to meet the needs of a growing community with the addition now of television we hope in the coming years to fulfill the needs which will arise with increased vigor with vital material and with an increased sense of personal communication.
