Wartime Christmas Radio Programs and Home Front Notes
Wartime radio plans promise three hours of Christmas programs for troops abroad featuring stars bands and greetings from top officials. Home front listeners hear overseas broadcasts including a 200-man Holy Land chorus and Midnight Mass from Italy. Also notes on prisoner of war notifications and cautions about enemy broadcasts. Butter prices rise modestly as butter price regulation permits small markups, fertilizer delivery urged to avert spring shortages, and enrichment of bakery products noted.
