A Time to Keep Free
his return from one of his many conferences, Mr. Bevin is reported to have expressed the wish that he could be granted a sort of universal passport and allowed to get into any train or ship and travel wherever he wished. Were Mr. Bevin to become a listener to 2YA each Tuesday at 7.15 p.m, he would find himself able to relax in his armchair, and have the world brought to him instead. Such, at least, is the object of Passport, an up-to-the-moment talks session which begins on July 8 with Stanley Bond’s "People and Politics in France" (see Things to Come, page 4). Each week a speaker will) deal with one aspect of life in a country of which he has special knowledge. He will seek to present listeners with a picture of things as they are in that country but will not attempt to draw comparisons or intrude his own theories. The subject and speakers to be heard will not be announced in advance, the idea being that the most interesting and up-to-date material which comes into the hands of the Talks Department before the actual hour of the programme will be used.
