Helnl Radio-Television News Service 9/6/50 SEN. BREWSTER STRAFES WILLKIE, JR. FOR BOOSTING SEN. TOBEY Sen. Owen Brewster (R), of Maine, rebuked Phil Wlllkie, son of the late Wendell, for allegedly having endorsed Sen. Charles W.Tobey (R), in the New Hampshire primary in which Tobey' s renomin¬ ation will be considered next Tuesday (Sept. 12). Senator Brewster telegraphed Mr. Wlllkie, who is Assistant Director of the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee, as follows: •‘If your action is correctly reported", Senator Brewster telegraphed, "this is most embarrassing to our Campaign Committee as it is an inviolable rule of politics that the Senatorial Campaign Committee is most scrupulous in avoiding any mixing of primary con¬ tests which are peculiarly for the determination of the Republican voters in each State. Any use of the Senatorial Committee to in¬ fluence primaries seriously mars its usefulness." Other Republican leaders said privately that Wlllkie had embarrassed them particularly because some of the party's biggest contributors in New York and elsewhere are helping finance a campaign to unseat Tobey. His primary opponent is Wesley Powell, former Secretary to Senator Styles Bridges XXXXXXXX "HEAR IT AGAIN.'"; BRITISH REPEAT FAMOUS PAST BROADCASTS The British Broadcasting Corporation has a series, "Hear It Again!" which brings back the voices of some of the great British personalities of the first thirty years of radio about which Paul Johnstone of the BBC comments: "Winston Churchill's address on 'their finest hour' needs no comment,, nor do the words of George Bernard Shaw. Priestly, on the little ships at Dunkirk, if less epic, is almost more moving to hear again. "Do you remember when he was talking about the Grade Fields, the Isle of Wight ferry boat: 'She was the glittering queen of our local line, and instead of taking an hour over her voyage, used to do it, churning like mad, in forty-five minutes. And now, never again will we board her at Cowes, and go down into her dining saloon for a fine breakfast. She has paddled and churned away for ever. "'But now look this little steamer, like all her brave and battered sisters, is immortal. She will go sailing proudly down the years in the epic of Dunkirk. And our great-grandchildren, when they learn how we began this war by snatching glory out of defeat, and then swept on to victory, may also learn how the little holiday-steamers made an excursion to hell and came back glorious.1" XX XXXXXXXX 7
