BOOKS FOR EASTERN EUROPE

Sin—An International Committee of Writers and Publishers has just been set up in Paris with the object of sending books to Eastern Europe. Many of your readers may like to know that they can help . in this cause by sending books to me here. The books will be dispatched to universities, colleges and indi- viduals in Poland, Hungary and elsewhere, accord- ing to their suitability and as circumstances permit. There is a need for every kind of good English book —especially, but not only, contemporary writing.-- Yours faithfully,
