On Edge - _Death on the Horizon_ (circa 1940__)

OK, this is a show I haven't been able to trace.  It alleges to be an episode of"On Edge" titled "Death on the Horizon".  I can't find anything anywhere on this.  Any ideas??? (I suspect it may be the opening of a parody...)

A Forgotten Propaganda Broadcast and the Cold War beginning of EAS - Conelrad

The forgotten classic propaganda broadcast from World War II, Our Secret Weapon, taking the foremost Naxi and Japanese Short Wave Propaganda broadcasts and turning them on their ear. An episode of Our Secret Weapon from August 30, 1942. Als a 1942 World War II propaganda ditty from Don Bake, "There'll Be a little Smokie in Tokio" - perhaps a prediction? And a Public Service program explaining CONELRAD to the general public. Though unwieldy for broadcasters and somewhat confusing to the public, the 640-1240 scheme of CONELRAD thankfully never had to be used as it gave way to the Emergency Broadcast System and the current Emergency Alert System.
