CATHOLICS TRICKED IN SIGNING PETITION Find They Are Asking for Continuance of Anti-Cath olic Radio Broadcast The “Watch Tower” radio program, which devotes a considerable portion of its time to attacks on the clergy, Protestant, Catholic and Jewish, in general and on the Catholic Church in particular, has stirred up storms of protest in every section of the country and in many other parts of the world. In Canada and England the program has been barred from the air. The program in the United States is practically identical-'with the one the Canadian and England authori ties have silenced. Sensing a similar fate in this country, the “millions now living will never die” band is circulating petitions “calling upon Congress to safeguard the rights of the common people” by allowing these insulting broadcasts to con tinue. * The Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia is informed that in some places signatures of Catholic are being secured to these petitions by representations that Father Coughlin is in danger of being barred from the air, and that the petition is intended to protect his broadcasts. A recent leaflet of the “Watch Tower” group lists broadcasts from these stations in the Southeast; WIOD, Miami; WDBO, Orlando; WCOA, Pensacola; WTFI. Athens, Ga.; WGST, Atlanta; WRDW, Augus ta; WBBI, Columbus; WTOC, Savan nah; WKEU, LaGrange; WFDV, Rome; WQDX, Thomasville; WFBC, Greenville, S. C.; WSPA, Spartan burg; WIS, Columbia; WWNC, Ashe ville, N. C.; WSOC, Charlotte; WPTF, Raleigh; WRAM, Wilmington; WBIG, Greensboro; WOPI, Bristol, Tenn.; WTJS, Jackson; WNOX, Knoxville; WMC. Memphis; WSIX, Springfield; WOOD. Chattanooga; WROL, Knox ville; WNRA, Muscle Shoals, Ala., and other stations- Most of the broad casts are on Sunday. Readers of Catholic publications have been asked to let their local radio stations and the Federal Radio Commission. Washington, D. C., know how they feel about the broadcasts, and they are also advised not to sign any petitions unless they know the person presenting it and read its contents carefully.
