On this bonus episode of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel presents a short audio feature produced in 2013 to mark the 75th anniversary of the groundbreaking CBS News "roundup" of reports from European capitals as the continent teetered on the brink of war, and the Nazis moved into Austria. The March 13, 1938 international broadcast had two direct ties to the Pacific Northwest: CBS' Edward R. Murrow, who helped organize it and who reported from Vienna; and U.S. Senator Lewis B. Schwellenbach of the Evergreen State, who appeared as a guest.
