COLUNBIA BRAGS PTURES OF VAR More Than 30 Broadcasts Relating to Italian Con- flict Given. INCE the Italian-Ethiopian sit- | uation became tense the micro- | phone has met tremendous tests to reflect many phases of the| first major hostilities to break oul‘ since the advent of modern broadcast- | ing. ; Vast technical difficulties and prob- lems of accuracy were faced both by ihe press and by radio. A(‘(‘flmpllsh-! ments of the former are shown daily | on the front pages of the newspapers, | but how well the microphone has| fared as a correlated medium is a story less familiar to the listener. | A survey shows more than 30 broad- casts dealing with the important phases of the trouble have been car- ried over the Columbia chain since July These have included the views of impartial world observers, representa- tive discussions by spokesmen of the Interested parties and radio descrip- tions by American newspaper men | from the remote centers of military | action. In addition, authorities now | in the United States. but familiar with | the African colonial scene, have pic- | tured for Columbia listeners the set- ting of the strange war theater and its peoples. Climaxing these broadcasts and a talk from Asmara by Il Duce’s son-in- law. Count Ciano of the Italian Air Corps, Columbia again reached out to remote Addis Ababa to transmit a dramatic speech by Emperor Haile Sclassie just before he prepared to Join his troops at the front. He spoke in a clear Amharic voice and his mes- | sage was translated by Josef Israels 2d. special correspondent of the New | York Times. In addition, Columbia plans many more broadcasts to keep up with lat- est developments in Ethiopia, Italy| and other world centers. It also hopes to make use of the short-wave station | in Cairo, Egypt, in case airplane serv- | ice to that city becomes frequent for war correspondents | Rt | ‘\'ILLIAM GILLETTE, 80-year-old veteran of the stage, will step of temporary retirement next Monday night to appear in the C.
