Chez le Pharmacien -
A programme for those interested in brushing up their French
Script by Emile Harven and M. J. MacDonald
Helen and Peter Lamb have arrived in Paris to catch the night train to Marseilles. As they are going to the South of France, they think it would be a good thing to get something to keep off mosquitoes. While they are at the chemist's, Peter remembers that they have left their sponge behind at Rouen. Unfortunately, the essential words fail them.

Appeal on behalf of the Royal National Life-boat Institution by Richard Dimbleby O.B.E
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
The Royal National Life-boat Institution depends entirely on voluntary gifts, and has done so since it was founded in 1824. It receives nothing from the State and is not controjled by the State.
It is the oldest national liife-boat institution in the world and since it was founded more than 78,500 Jives have been rescued. Since the end of the last war an average of 421 people every y<ar have been saved by the Institution's life-boats from death at sea. The Institution has built, maintains, and equips 155 motor liife-boats around the coasts of the United Kingdom, -the Irish Republic, and the Channel Islands.
It pays rewards to crews when they go out on service, and pensions them and the dependants of all life-boatmen who lose their lives in the service. Its wo.rk now costs ₤750,000 a year.

In this talk, which is a shortened version of the address given last year to the British Association, the Archbishop of York deals with the ethical problems raised in the use of scientific discoveries. In particular he refers to problems implied in restricting the free flow of scientific information.
