An American woman speaks : Ann Maxtone Graham
Ann Maxtone Graham , an American, came to live over here thirteen years ago, when she married a Scotsman. Today she will contrast the conditions in Britain of the days when it was something rare to see a foreigner in England, with conditions today, when there are so many Allied nationalities in the country. The speaker comes from New England, which is probably more like Britain than any other part of the - United States. She is doubly bound to Great Britain, however, as one of her mother's ancestors went over on the Mayflower and landed at Plymouth in 1620, while her father's grandfather went to America from Scotland when he was a young man.

Series telling of outstanding British feats of arms in this war. 3-' The Royal Armoured Corps ' : story told by Denis Johnstone

followed by a postscript

by Tom Wintringham. Produced by Laurence Gilliam
August 8, 1918, was rightly described bv General Ludendorff as the ' Black Day of the German Army'. On that day the Allies of the last war began their final assault on the Hindenburg Line, and took the first of their ultimately decisive steps to victory. The memory of 1918, and particularly of August 8 of that year, is the symbol to the German High Command and to the German people of military collapse.
