REVOLUTIONS
Sir.-I do not. see the value in either education or entertainment of a programme commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Russian Revolution. The — Hungarians commemorated the 39th anniversary by trying to drive their Russian oppressors from their land; as a result of the savage reprisals we now have a thousand Hungarian refugees in this country. I would suggest to the NZBS that a programme connected with the first anniversary of the Hungarian revolution would receive a more sympathetic hearing from listeners. It would also be of much greater value in helping us New Zealanders to cope with the problems involyed in the re-orientation of the refugees to whom we have given sanctuary but little else. It is surely not too late for the NZBS to draw on its resources and enthusiasm to produce a fitting memorial proeramme for All Souls’ Day-November
