A paper [1] sent to the Manchester Symposium on Radio Astronomy in 1955 described the views developed earlier [2] concerning a magnetobremsstrahlung (synchrotron) origin of nonthermal cosmic radio emission. Unfortunately, for unknown reasons, it was not included in the Symposium volume [3]. At the same time the paper by Unsöld was published [3] (see also [4]), in which the nonthermal galactic radio emission is connected with radiation of a great number of cold dwarfs (radio stars). At the same time, Unsöld criticizes the theory of cosmic-ray origin, according to which the main sources of these rays are envelopes of supernovae and, perhaps, novae [2, 5, 6, 7, 8]. Therefore, we begin with some critical remarks.
