CHURCH BROADCASTS
Sir,-"Oliver" has put the attitude of the present materialistic age towards things spiritual only too plainly when he advocates the deletion of church services from most of the Sunday programmes, — I feel, as I am sure many thousands of other listeners do-particularly those unable to attend church services-that far from wanting "clever" speakers on Sunday evenings, we would like to see all secular matter, such as political addresses, deleted, I am sure I echo the opinion of a large body of listeners when I say that a selection of good church services on Sundays is appreciated and desirable, and that many of the enlightened addresses-such as that given from 3YA last night (Sunday, 11th instant)-provide the class of mental food that is so much required by the world in its present time of testing. The churches, in putting imi services over, are fulfilling a definite need.
