Dear Co-Workers in Christ:
Here is BIG NEWS! It may mean the end of this present
world is much nearer than even we had supposed!
God is opening new doors that His Gospel may go more
quickly to all the world.
I am in New York at the air port---dictating this letter
by long distance telephone to be typed and mailed to you today from
Pasadena, while I am flying home. I expect to arrive home tonight
but this letter is too urgent to wait.
Here is the BIG NEWS! The second largest nation on
earth, in number of human lives, is India. India has 364,000,000
people---as compared to 160,000,000 in the United States.
Beginning February 16, "this Gospel of the Kingdom of God" will be
broadcast for the first time in all history to all of India! And
at very slight cost to us! I have just been offered this
tremendous opportunity and closed the contract in New York City.
It is a thrilling story. It is most important. I want
you to read carefully every word.
On the island of Ceylon, just off the southern tip of
India, is the most powerful commercial radio station in the two
largest continents on earth---Asia and Africa. It is actually four
tremendous super-power stations grouped together---beaming out in
four directions on four giant transmitters---each of them 100,000
watts of power.
One giant transmitter beams programs to all India,
Pakistan, Burma, Tibet, the interior of China, Iran, Iraq,
Palestine, North Africa.
A second beams east into Thailand, Indo-China, all of
East Indies, and the China coastline; a third 100,000 watt
transmitter beams west to Central and Southern Africa and the
fourth transmitter covers the populace Island of Ceylon locally.
The World Tomorrow program will now go out on all four of
these tremendous transmitters, from 10:15 to 10:45 every Tuesday
night.
