WANT A PEN PAL NAMED ADOLF? IF SO, DON'T WRITE; TELEGRAPH.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The German Radio has announced that it will send collect to Adolf Hitler any telegrams of less than 29 words which Americans will send suggesting new types of German broadcasts which they would like to hear.

Since cablegrams cost about $2.50 apiece, 150,000 of them would be the equivalent of about three Messer-schmidts, according to computations emanating from the Mathematics department last night.

Western Union and Postal Telegraph are now accepting, collect, all messages of the required length. Wires should be addressed to Amradro, Berlin, Germany, and there is no limit to the number that will be accepted from any one individual.

Professor Ralph Barton Perry has already wired to Hitler for a "specific and authoritative statement of the terms on which Germany will cease military operations," while Professor Donald C. McKay has asked for what guarantees the Germans would give "that food for Belgium would not be taken out as rapidly as it arrived?"
