Christians meet to answer listeners' questions. Today's team : Dr. J. W. Welch (in the chair), Canon F. A. Cockin , Miss Mary Trevelyan , Fr. Agnellus Andrew, and Professor C. H. Dodd

This afternoon's questions include one on the social progress achieved in non-Christian Russia, one on the- Old Testament Prophets, and one suggesting that if God is all-powerful and all-seeing the responsibility for the evil in the world rests with Him.
