Radio: Elliott Aired

Last Saturday night, 28-year-old Elliott Roosevelt, most radio-minded son of a radio-minded father, began his new thrice-a-week job of news-commenting over an East-coast and Texas MBS network, sponsored by the Emerson Radio & Phonograph Corp. Sizing up 1940 in his first broadcast, he announced he would ask listener opinion on questions like: “Are you in favor of a third term for any President of the United States?” Asked for his own views on that question, he replied: “I’m asking, not answering.”
