lieve the Reds plan a greatly intensified propaganda offensive against West Europe. The transmitters, Mke mbst Soviet, projects, are shrouded in . secrecy. No one west of the Iron Curtain knows exactly when /theywill go on the air. The best Iguess is sometime during 1953, 1 Western experts say they are sure the big new stations are intended for propaganda purposes rather than because Russia's equipment for Jamming West-

ern broadcasts already is “adequate.” They expect the new transmitters to be beamed primarily to Western Germany, but they will have the power to blast their way into most of West Europe. The new transmitters, according to refugee sources, are being constructed alongside existing stations so the Russians either may increase the total number of stations on the air or put several in a line, greatly increasing, the power over ftny selected frequency. Western radio experts said the Russians already have managed to capture an ever-growing radio audience in West Germany by sugarcoating their propaganda with tips classical music. Western experts are frankly by the increase in Soviet broadcasting power and haven't yet decided on countermeasures. They said the Soviets have taken over several frequencies previously allotted to East German radio stations. Soviet jamming techniques also are causing considerable qoncern. Doubt Republicans ] Can Hold In South Rebellion In Sduth Seen Only Temporary ATLANTA, ipP — Southern observers expressed doubt today that the Republicans can hold their new beachhead in once “Solid Dixie” after “Trumanism” is no longer an issue. in giving Dwight D. Eisenhower three states and the heaviest popular vote in history, they said, the south was rebelling against policies of the Truman administration. This dissension was given a terrific boost by the tremendous personal popularity of the nation’s new President-elect in the \ south and was coupled with comparatively new issue—tideland oil. In a popular vote that almost tripled that of former President Herbert Hoover’s previous best GOP showing in 1928, the Republicans swept Florid'a, Virginia and Tef>s, and were close in Tennessee and Louisiana. But equally as basic as southern objections to the administration’s “big government" and "Fair Dealing" aspects was the south s cen-tury-old tradition of Democratic viewpoint. \ Comment by the south’s political leaders on the election contained few outright suggestions of the Republican foothold developing into full-fledged second party status. Florida Democratic national committeeman Richard D. Barker looked upon the election as a "major operation” that was needed to remove a cancerous, growth from the Democratic party.” “That operation has been performed,” he said, “and the patient has four years in which to make a complete recovery.” ' Florida’s Gov. Fuller Warren said he believed the Republican wedge driven into the south last Tuesday will prove no\ less “temporary” than that of 1928, when Mr. Hoover carried Floida and four other southern states. “I believe the Republican party will continue to be the minority party,” he said.

Southern Democrats who supported the GOP\candidate outright declared they had no intention of letting any Republicanism rub off on them during the next four years.
