brought the government radio station and equipment with them from
Shanghai, and set it up on Formosa as their only means of reaching
the people of China, in order to fight against Communist
propaganda.
This "Voice of Free China" radio has one super-power
100,000-watt standard broadcast transmitter, powerful enough to
reach all China, and also two 20,000-watt short wave transmitters.
It is the only station listened to by the 7 million
people on Formosa. It is the only Chinese source of information on
the outside world for the hundreds of millions of Chinese behind
the Iron Curtain. The Chinese on Formosa claim the listening
audience inside Communist China is very large. There the Chinese
people have secret listening places, guarded to warn against
approaching Communist police or troops.
And here is another almost unbelievable fact I have
learned. Just as in India, where there are some five different
dialects, so in China there are MANY different dialects. They do
not all speak the same language. And, as in India, so in China,
English has in recent years become the one universal language by
which the leaders of the people in all walks of life speak to one
another. Millions have learned the English language---and they are
the leaders, and the others are the followers. One leader, at one
of these many secret listening places in China, who understands
English, will relay the Message to many others in their own Chinese
dialect. It's just as if God had used this method of giving us the
"gift of tongues" by which to communicate to these people.
Besides, this, the New York foreign radio station representatives
will supply us trained radio speakers in every dialect if we wish
to use them. And, if so be the will and way of God, God Himself
will give us the miraculous gift of tongues by which we ourselves
may speak His Message to those people in their own language. THIS
IS THE WORK OF GOD! He is performing miracles. Nothing is
impossible with Him!
THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THE GREAT MASS OF CHINESE UNDER THE
HEEL OF THE COMMUNISTS CAN NOW BE REACHED! It's like a miracle
that God has opened this great door thru the Iron Curtain to us!
Madam Chiang Kai Shek professes Christianity, and the
Generalissimo himself has professed to be a Christian. He knows
the most effective way to combat Communism is the Message of Truth
from GOD. Therefore He has opened to us this one and only DOOR
thru the 'iron curtain.'
Here's another providential happening! This is the
government station of the free Chinese---the only Chinese
government the United States recognizes. It is not a commercial
station, therefore does not sell time for profit. Chiang Kai Shek
therefore has graciously offered us the use of his great radio
voice WITHOUT CHARGE, except that we are to pay just the
operational overhead---a very small amount---for the time he is
letting us use---a half hour every week.
TRULY GOD IS MOVING SWIFTER AND SWIFTER, in our behalf!
