HESS TOLD SIMON OF PEACE OFFERS NUERNBERG, Jan. 29—CU.R)— Rudoli Hess told Viscount Simon during a three-hour conference in Wales June 9, 1941, that Adolf Hit ler had approved the peace pro posals which Hess brought to Brit ain, it was learned today. Although Hitler did not know of bis deputy’s intended flight to Britain, Hess obtained his agree ment to each point of the peace plan through carefully phrased conversations during the preceding 11 months, he claimed. A certified 71-page stenographic record of Hess’ conference with gimon revealed that the then Brit ish Lord Chancellor, acting in the name of the British government, went to the Abergavenny war pris on detention camp especially to in terview the former deputy fuehrer. Hess told Simon that Hitler hoped the war would bring Eng land and Germany closer together. “We all believed we could con quer England sooner or later,” the record quoted Hess. “I was of the opinion we must demand from England restitution of goods such as the value of the merchant fleet which was taken from us at Ver sailles but the fuehrer contradict ed me on that point. "He was of the opinion that the war could possibly lead to closer reapprochement between the two countries and said even if victori ous we should not impose any se vere conditions on a country with whorr. we desired to come to an agreement. “Therefore, I thought if the peo ple of England knew this we might possibly arrive at an understand ing.” 1 Ship Movements IN PORT Freighters Mary Pickersgill, from New York, at Wilmington Terminal Warehouse company loading to bacco, steel and other cargo for France.

Over The Airways -By BEN MCDONALD There is a real treat in store tomorrow night for those radio listeners who cannot take in the March of Dimes ball at the Cape Fear Armory. For the first time in this area the affair will be remoted over WMFD. One full hour of a ‘‘blow by blow” description of the highlights will come over the air waves between 10 and 11 p.m. Personalities will \ spring a bit of chit chat—the Lejeune band will give out with the music—the spangles and dangles of the lady guests will come in for their share of the miked description of the festivities,—and it is hoped to be able to announce the total sum of the contributions from New Hanover county. Ohj yes tins leaiure cumes tu yuu* through the cooperation of the Drive committee, Post No. 10, American Legion, and the management of station WMFD. DO YOU REMEMBER The A. C. radio replaced the cat whisker and the one dial con trol took over from the three or four dial job . . . Yes its been a long, long time . . . Yet counted in years it is hardly yesterday . . . The swap-over from a whole cabi net full of batteries, . . „ (A) bat teries, (B) batteries and even (C) batteries cluttered up the house and were the cause of many a headache when they decided to go dead in the middle of a favorite program . . . and when a grateful public were introduced to a strict ly all-electric radio, then the skep. tics decided that radio was really here to stay ... It was about that time that Wilmingtonians were in troduced to their second radio sta tion . . . The Federal Communi cations commission granted the Wilmington Radio association, a non profit corporation, a fifty watt station and assigned the call let ters WRBT . . . The station was located in the Calvary church building on the comer of Fourth and Brunswick streets . . . This was quite an improvement on the first installation, and Wilmington really opened it’s radio doors to messages and music broadcast or. a limited schedule,—for those were the days when most radio stations had a special schedule ... It was a rarity to find a station broad casting during the entire day. Ra ther the various station* would have a schedule in the morning, another around noon, then return around five thirty or six for the night . . . Networks were only for the larver stations, then usuallv five hundred or a thousand watts. ... So at the end of a broadcast schedule the announcer would sign off for a few hours ... Of course that was quite an item in the economic operation, and in those days of scarce commercials, the economic problem was a shall we say problem . . . Advertisers doubted the value of radio and radio men lay awake at night try ing to cook up methods of con vincing them that the value was there . . . Well WRBT had an eventful life, presenting to Wilmington most of the local talent available at thai time, and relying a great deal on phonograph records to entertain it’s listeners . . . However several notables were presented during the life of this station including Gene Austin and Sigmund Spaeth the tune detective . . . Old timers will remember that the afternoon Gene Austin was presented over the local station, it was necessary to call out a special police detail to handle the thousands of interested spec tators and the hundreds of cars that jam-packed north Fourth street ... In fact some wiseacre i made the remark that Austin had more live audience than radio lis teners that afternoon ... Be that as it may WRBT had a long and useful life as will be outlined in another of these epistles in a fu ture “Over The Airways.” . . . BY THE WAY Fred Smith will have an audi tion over WMFD . . . R. A. Dunlea is well on the road to full recov ery and spends longer hours at the office these days. Good to see him back on the job again . . . Rev. W. J. Stephenson, pastor, Temple Baptist church deserves a nod for his 5:15 p.m. casting . . . Willie Rosenmann just trained in from New York and informs us that FM is really making rapid strides in the big city . . , Bob Kooser, fire prevention engineer ACL, is the lad who put over several of the Camp Davis shows while he was stationed there . . . A very definite nod for his ex cellent performance goes to J. G Thornton . . . and rave notices on the performance of Douglas Me Koy are still coming.

And for the highlights in the news in and around New Hanover county tune in the STAR NEWSREEL Sunday at 1:15 p.m.. WMFD. BUFF’S CUP TO MUSEUM BLOOMINGTON, 111. — (U.P.)— A silver cup, trophy of the old Prairie Bird volunteer fire department will soon join the collection of the McLean county historical society museum.
