Whether or not these recordings are in the public domain is open to question, but anyone can purport that they are, and see if anyone complains....
The copyright would be a state copyright, not a Federal copyright. (Both New York and California, where most of the Radio shows were produced and broadcast from, had state copyright laws covering performances, hence the Radio shows).
