Refugag

According to Cinema & Radio Comic Lew Lehr, a German refugee named Meyer, never in the U. S. before, was met at a Manhattan pier by ship news reporters. Said he,right off the bat: "How happy I am a-a-awrk to be at last in your beautiful America sque-e-e-e, to live in peace and freedom bukabukabuk without fear of concentration camps ow-o-o-o-ow, to raise my children to know the full meaning of mental and physical liberty kre-e-e-sh, I can hardly wait to set foot on your happy shores whe-e-e-e!"

"But Mr. Meyer," queried one reporter, "you have never been in our country before, yet you handle the language astonishingly. Where did you pick it up?"

Said Mr. Lehr's Mr. Meyer, with understandable pride: "From your short-wave radio."
