Today in Europe at this time the Columbia broadcasting system brings you the latest power news direct from important European war capitals Tonight we shall attempt to bring the news from Amsterdam and from Helsinki Edward our moral chief of the Columbia European staff has just arrived in Amsterdam to talk with William L. Shara
CBS Continental representatives and so we take you now to Amsterdam I'm not going. Peace time used to fly from Berlin. To answer them in a couple of hours, ninety-five years of training, it takes thirteen hours, and a train's a late and cold.
But you're sure of it, didn't you? I think so. It was more like being swung around in a barrel at the end of a long boat than flying. That plane was painted blunt orange and all the way to a black house.
Well, the black windows out. Oh, just so curious. We can't see anything while flying over England in the channel. How long did it take from one at the Amsterdam? Do you mean blind time or total time?
Well, I let London at seven in the morning. Traveled on a cold train to a little place you're not supposed to know about. It's been about three hours doing things with little bits of paper and books.
And that's what I'm still doing about half-past three in the afternoon. It's so simple getting all these companies into. Well, there are six months ago I could have traveled around the world with fewer papers and documents than were required for this trip.
And then you hear that because I thought the place where I worked had a monopoly on that sort of thing. Well, you see, they haven't. You don't build this conversation anymore. Well, maybe it's because we both want to talk about the same thing.
