The March of Time

Sirs:

Like hundreds of others who probably won't take time or have time to write you—I'm darn glad that you are back on the air—with "The March of Time." You can count on us being by our radio Friday nights!

W. HUNTER SNEAD

Pittsburgh, Pa.

Sirs:

. . . Everybody I have heard comment on "The March of Time" out here went plain "nerts" about the first presentation. It is truly splendid. Never knew so much drama could be crammed into such a thing. That's what everybody says.

WILLIAM J. ROBINSON San Francisco, Calif.

. . . As you doubtless know, Friday evening is the eve of the Sabbath for those of the Jewish Faith and at the time of your broadcast we are in our Houses of Worship. This deprives many of your subscribers and readers, as well as many listeners, of a most stimulating enactment of affairs of the past week. Wednesday evening, of course, would deprive other faiths and Sunday evening practically all Christian denominations hold religious services. . . .

LESTER ALEXANDER Toledo, Ohio

Sirs:

It would seem that after all there is something new under the sun. Your broadcast came to us today thru KHJ, Los Angeles.

We expected that it could not be as good as we imagined it would have to be to be commensurate with TIME. It was!

Congratulations!

BERKETT D. NEWTON South Pasadena, Calif.

Onetime Minister Barrett

Sirs:

In your today's issue (Oct. 19) you quote an advertisement in the New York Times which announced that the services of a "former American Ambassador" (the last two words being purposely in your heavy black type) without mentioning his name could be secured by interested clubs to discuss international affairs. You then, evidently with the intention of clever ridicule (which I admit makes good reading!) emphasize that said "Ambassador" had been identified as myself, a former "U. S. Minister to Siam, Argentina, Panama, Colombia, longtime (1907-20) Director General of the Pan American Union," etc.
