' Have we too many words? '
Leonora Lockhart
Natioh is isolated from nation by barriers due to the existence of more than 1,500 languages. One way of breaking these down is to use a simplified form of our own language with fewer words and far less complicated rules of grammar. Miss Lockhart is Assistant Director of the Orthological Institute, where she has worked for some years with C. K. Ogden. She will illustrate the talk with gramophone records.
