The Radio Review
" WORKERS OF EUROPE," the new series of Friday night talks, began well with a discussion between a German and an English agricultural worker. There was a refreshing absence of the usual theorizings : the speakers got down to facts straight away. The main impression left with me was that there is a depressing lack of encouragement in the conditiOns of the farm worker of to-day : there seems to be almost as little hope of his becoming a master himself as there was for his feudal forebears. It would be interesting to hear from an authority how this impression compares with the facts. There was evidently a good deal Of preparation behind this excellent broadcast : it maintained throughout a liveliness too often absent from broadcast discussions.
