The Work of UN
F the work of the various United Nations organisations seems a little remote for New Zealand children, they should know much more about them after listening to some UN productions which are included in the latest group of programmes for the Sunday evening children’s sessions from the Commercial stations. One describes, for instance, how the Food and Agriculture Organisation sent a Norwegian expert to a fishing village in Ceylon. In another the story of the growth and work of the Universal Postal Union is told by the stamps in a schoolboy’s collection, who hold a United Nations assembly of their own. Yet another programme tells of an Indonesian doctor who was working in a garage making artificial legs and arms for people injured in the war, and of the help he hag from WHO, the ILO, and other branches of the United Nations. Plays in this series will be heard from 1XH and 2ZB this coming Sunday, October 20, and next week. ‘They will be heard later from other Commercial stations.
