MISSILDINE’S PHARMACY Phone 4 WHERE PHARMACY IS A PROFESSION NOT A SIDE LINE A Bulletin Commentator A number of Tryonites who have been listening to H. V. Kaltenborn commentating on the European 1 nn remembered that he wrote ... 0 ~~out Tryon on the in side back cover of our Tenth An niversary edition. They have be come better acquainted with Mr. Kaltenborn and have been reread ing his comment on Tryon. These friends will be interested in the following comment on him written by John Temple Graves, 11, in the Asheville Citizen: “One idea of the rank in impor tance of the different figures in the European crisis might be Adolf Hitler, Edouard Benes, Ne ville Chamberlain, Benito Musso lini, Premier Daladier—and H. V. Kaltenborn. For years to come millions of Americans will associ ate inseparably with this crisis the clipped words and precise thoughts of Mr. Kaltenborn as delivered by radio from time to time all day and night. His per formance has been something ex traordinary, especially when he acted as interpreter of Hitler’s Monday speech and, immediately, thereafter, offered his own com ments and analysis. Easy to hear, and worth hearing, he has made himself an unforgettable part of the history with which he has dealt. “Mir. Kaltenborn is 60 years old. He was bom in Milwaukee and is a Harvard graduate. I n his career there have been many contrasts. He was once a traveling salesman in France. He married a German baroness. He was a reoorter on the Brooklyn Eagle. He was a private tutor in the family of John Jacob Astor and as such traveled with and taught Vincent Astor, served in many capacities on many newspapers, but it is as a radio re porter and commentator that he has found his greatest success. “Listening to him as he trais TRYON MOTOR Co. y Inc. Service lated and discussed Hitler last Monday, we were impressed as everyone else must have been with the importance of what he was doing and of the vast problem and opportunity which the radio rep resents. Here is an instrument capable of exposing the population of the whole to the same influence at the same time, of subjecting all humanity to one man’s word, one man’s eloquence, one man’s sophistry or truth, one man’s hypnotism or inspiration. The r.ght to be that man, or his in terpreter, or commentator, is thetf right to have such potential or ac-M tual control over the affairs of mankind as never existed before in history. It is the right to such a power that the promise in its use and the problem in its misuse may force all of us to alter our ideas on many matters. It poses new and unanswered questions in de mocracy, free speech, education, ' war and peace.” Sunnalee Private School Special Tutoring English, Mathematics, Latin French Mrs. Alice K.
