  <abstract>Primarily scripts of Swing's radio broadcasts including those presented on the Blue Network; the British Broadcasting Corporation; Mutual Broadcasting System; radio stations WMAL (Washington, D.C.), WOL (Washington, D.C.), and WOR (New York, N.Y.); and Voice of America.  Scripts reflect Swing's analysis and interpretation of world news during the period between 1935 and 1964.  Includes correspondence, lectures, addresses, articles written (1941-1943) for the London Sunday Express, poetry, and plays by Swing.  Subjects include antinuclear bomb efforts, blackballing of Carl T. Rowan by the Cosmos Club, Chinese Communists (Zhongguo gong chan dang), disarmament in the 1960s, the Gung Ho unit in the Pacific theater during World War II, a Jewish homeland in Palestine, military leadership, and world government.  Correspondents include Evans Fordyce Carlson, James Bryant Conant, Albert Einstein, Edward R. Murrow, Drew Pearson, Dean Rusk, Arthur M. Schlesinger, Adlai E. Stevenson, and Harry S. Truman.</abstract>
