L.l. - SUNOCO, Friday, November 24, 1933 Good Evening Everybody: We have a couple of real sensations tonight. First of all, there»s a big rift in the Democratic Party. A1 Smith, whom the President Roosevelt christened "Happy Warrior*' the man in the fS ^ Brown Derby, one of the most influential men in the party,^has run out on the President. He came out today with a strong — Mo amphiyfrft* stateraentA©pp^4»g~‘tfeejvnioney policy, 1 This is the most important recruit yet for the forces aligned against on this grave issuey Former Governor Smith1s ringing declaration was issued from the offices of the New Outlook today. Among other things, he said: "The latest fiscal moves of the administration have undermined public confidence and created dangerous uncertainty". Then Mr, Smith added: "What the people need today is what was described in the Bible centuries ago as the shadow of a great rock in a 7 /eary land." The man in the Brown Derby said further: "I am for the return of the gold standard in the absence of any-khj^g definitely proved to be better. I am for gold dollars AL SMITH - 2 as against j^oiogn«^dollars .J I am for experience as against / experiment," Mr. Smith then declared himself for private management of business in preference to management by the government. He admitted that the leaders of the past have been guilty of selfishness. But, he said, if it came to choosing between them and inexperienced young college professors who hold no responsible office, "I am going to be for the people who have made the country what it is rather than for those who are ready to turn a hundred and thirty million Americans into guinea ix pigs for experimenta­ tion." H Wowl There's a blast for you. Meanwhile, the President himself seems to be holding fast, standing by his guns in the face of the barrage of criticism. He received General Johnson this morning at the little White House in Warm Springs, Georgia, and after that Henry Mor— genthau^ Acting Secretary of the Treasury, naturally aroused many conjectures about the topic of the houtac, the money program. But according to observers at the little ^hite House, the dope is that the President intends to go ahead regardless of criticism. NBC - CRUSADERS Incidentally, another organization is going on the war-path against inflation. This is the body known as the crusaders, who did such active work in the campaign against prohibition. And now they*re girding their loins for another— erasadgr, what they call the Sound Money Crusade. They have on their side several leaders of the American Federation of Labor and B'ij'O the American Legion and they’re going to hold a Sound Money Mass Meeting in New Yorlc Monday evening. NBC CUBA there*ve For a long time been rumblings against Sumner WellsSj Uncle Sam*s Ambassador to Cuba* His adversaries said it was his ^sMlt that Uncle Sam has not yet recognized the government of President San Martin. Now Mr. Welles is out. The President gave out the information today that Mr. Welles will leave Cuba and return to his former job in the State Department, The new Ambassador to Cuba is Jefferson Caffery, Assistant Secretary of State. At the xm same time it was said at the little White House that this does not mean Washington is going to recognize the San Martin Government. NBC MURDER The second big sensation of th vvvAJijfv^je^. ^mystery out in Chicago. to-betia^^aotoeA. Yes, they've solved was a rumor that i-arle V./nekoop, the husband of the pretty young woman who was murdered had confessed in order to protect somebody else. But this was contradicted and a second report had it that the young man had implored his mother, sayings "For Godfs sake. Moth®i*# if you did this on account of the bond of love between us, please go ahead and confess," So Dr, Alice Wynekoop, this sixty® sixty—two year old well-to-do woman practitioner, admitted to the Chicago police that it was she who had killed her daughter in-law on the operating table in the basement of her home on the continuous cross-examination by the police. Dr, Wynekoop intimated that her daughter-in-law was an Invalid and that she had killed the girl partly for the girl's own sate and for the Early this morning there west side of Chicago. by the police. Dr. Wynekoop was giving her daughter-in-law a MURDER - 2 massage with k ± chloroform, on the operating table. As the girl was suffering considerable pain, she administered enough of the anesthetic to deaden her senses. Then to her alarm. Dr. Wynekoop discovered that she had administered too much and that A A. the girl was dead. When Dr* Wynekoop realized this, she says she was stunned at first. Then she remembered there was a gun in the room and she decided to make it appear as though the girl had been murdered by a burglar. After she had killed the girl aJlA ^ — >.

As the details came out, one by one, the whole thing seemed^ There a83»3fto be neither rhyme x A A ly, the Chicago police claim that three established specialists :l have examined Dr. Wynekoop and pronounced her legally sane m I! LITVIMOV The December issue of Asia magazine contains an interesting article on Moscow*s foreign Commissar. His full name is Maxim Maximovitch Litvinov, His revolutionary name, states Elias Tohenkin in jsia. was Papasha which means "Papa dear,,. The article states that he was travelled to more countries than any living amhaasador, and each of his journeys has ended in some major diplomatic surprise. The Com mini st-s in Russia feel that anything he says or does would be approved by Lenin, He is a charter member of the Communist Party, Tobenkin states that he is an imposing, even a leonine figure on the platform, but horribly self conscious in the drawing room. Tonight will be one of his leonine evenings because Maxim Maximovitch Litvinov — Papasha - will be the guest of honor at a banquet in the resplendent grand ballroom of the Waldorf in Hew York. And there he will face several thousand of the leaders of life in New York City and big wigs of big business in America, The affair is being given by the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce. You will be able fo hear the proceedings because they are going t o be broadcast fron the Waldorf over this network at LITVINOV ten c^clock Eastern Standard time. L.T. "omorrow is going to be a whale of a big day for football fans. San Francisco, for instance, is wrought up to a fever of excitement over the game between Leland Stanford and the University of California. I am told that some seats are selling for as high as fifty dollars each. Incidentally, all the hotels of the Golden Gate are preparing for a big celebration. The staffs are busy taking all the furniture and rugs out of the lobbies. So you can imagine that highjinks are expected. In the Middle West Michigan is all ready for the game with Northwestern, which will probably settle and championship of the Big Ten. And the badly pounded Irish from Notre Dame are all set for the Trojans, the University of Southern California. Down South Duke is the big favorite in the encounter, with North Carolina. The games between Georgia and Georgia Tech, and Tulane vk . Sewane will strike aparks. In the East one of the big games is the annual Harvard- Yale affair. And they tell me Soldiers Field at Cambridge will be packed. Also Princeton and Rutgers resumption of the oldest football fued. /P~hnK Aw* FOR MK. CAGLE ^-: ^ov; us^ Chris, how are you as prophet? Mr* Ca&le:- I'd rather stick to playing. and leave the prophesying to the fellows who write. L»«T. :- Hov do you size up tomorrow's game? Do you figure the Navy has a chance? Mr. Cagle:- My xperience in the past, having played against Navy twice, proved that it's absolutely foolish to think either team is so many points better than the other. For example, in 1926, when we played them in Chicago, we were lucky to tie them 21-21. In 1927, the last regular Army-Navy Game before this year, the Army looked two touchdowns better on paper. But, we were trailing Navy 2 to 0 at the end of the first half and v/ere lucky to win 14 to 9. L.T,So, Chris, you figure that|in spite of the vastly better record of the Army team this year-, it's going to be a tough fight? Mr. Cagle:- Absolutely! A battle of the century! Past performances of either team when it comes to this game, mean nothing. The tradition behind the enthusiasm and spirit of the c&aielfcs and midshipmen is something no coach can football Another Mg show will be at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, where those ancient rivals, the Army and Mavy, will come to grips. And 1*11 bet every youngster in the land would give a good deal to be sitting in my seat for a moment, for right opposite me is one of the stoutest footballers of all time, and certainly one of the greatest ever turned out at West Point. I mean Chris Cagle, commonly known as Red, the famous elusive halfback and captain of the formidable Army team in 1929, At present Chris Cagle is in professional football -- quarter­ back and part owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers. And many of his old West Point dolleaguee are Maying with him. ; i UBC POR MB« CiiGLE L^T^: Nov/ tell us, Chris, how are you as prophet? ur.

Mr. Cagle:- Well, being an old Army man, naturally I hope it isnH going to be like that time in 1926, my first Navy game, when the Navy was leading 14 to 0 at the end of the first period. Anyhow, I think I111 grab my coat now and go dov/n to Philly and give a look.

Secretary Hull arrived at Rio de Janeiro for the Pan-American Conference. When he landed, he made the customary statement about the necessity of keeping the peace and, said he. ^the Americas, North, South and Central, should get together and show the rest of the world how.n * * •* # * Then thereTs a good deal of excitement in France because staehed away by people all over the country, something which always happens when the people of La Belle France get scared, There*s also considerable evidence that gamblers are selling the French Franc short.

LITTLE DO GY ENDING A radio listener in Cunaberland ( Maryland, who simply signed herself "Lillian" is worried, Lillian wants me to tell her something about what she refers to as a pe«ee of music -- p-e-e-c-e- — peace, "Oh do tell me#" she writes, in the sweet song "2 me Heading for the Last Round-Un arc the words "get along little doggie or get along little dpgey?" And continues Lillian, still worried, "is an unbranded steer called a dogey?" Veil, Lillian, I come from a mining camp so I asked a friend of mine who comes from the cow country to answer your questions. He’s no less an authority than Stanley Walker, who, in addition to having just written a fascinating book called, "The Might Club Era", is City Editor of the Mew York Herald Tribune. Stanley was born in Texas where the song you mention originated and he tells me the words are "Git along little dogy, not doggy". As for your second question, Lillian, a dogy is a calf which strays away from its mother and gets lost among the brush LITTLE POGY ENDING - 2 in the foothills. Bo that’s a little dogy.
