IT WILL DE REMEMBERED that on January 27, 1932, at the Albert Hall , H.R.H. the Prince of Wales made a plea for voluntary work in aid of the unemployed. As a result of this appeal it was arranged for Mr. S. P. B. Mais to make a tour of the depressed areas and, under the title of ' S 0 S ', to give a weekly broadcast talk describing the conditions of the unemployed.
The present series has been arranged as a sequel to the talks given a year ago. It is easy to forget, and these talks will help to remind listeners of the conditions in which many of their fellows are bound to live. Mr. S. P. B. Mais will open the series tonight, but the talks that follow will be given not by an outside observer, but by unemployed men and women themselves.
