Radio: Pooh!
To make German ears tingle, Britain's BBC thrice daily broadcasts reproachful propaganda in German. Daily the Reich's radio warriors retort in English. Sample of Nazi frightfulness:
Little Ursula: What's a war, Daddy?
Daddy: When two or more people are angry with one another.
Ursula: Is zay angwy wiv me, Daddy?
Daddy: They are making war against us —against you, too.
Ursula: Why, Daddy?
Daddy: I do not think they themselves know why.
Ursula: Pooh !
