The Colonial Empire
British Rule in Africa: Setting the Scene

FROM NOW until this series ends on March 23, the Friday broadcasts will deal with Africa, and all listeners interested in the subject would do well to read a copy of Professor Coupland's comprehensive pamphlet, 'The British Empire', obtainable from [address removed], price 6d., 7d. post free.
The heading of the initial talk by I L. Evans this evening is self-explanatory, inasmuch as it will show how the white man came to Africa, and what he achieved there. It will also discuss the many different forms British rule takes in different parts, and the status of the different dependencies -Â Colonies, Protectorates, Mandates, 'Condominiums'. In a second talk, on February 16, he will deal with economic development.
