Appeal on behalf of the Musicians' Benevolent Fund by Rex Palmer
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to Rex Palmer, Esq., Musicians' Benevolent Fund, [address removed]
The Musicians' Benevolent Fund is entirely supported by voluntary contributions : it distributes thousands of pounds annually to unemployed, sick, and aged professional musicians.
The Fund also maintains more than one hundred pensioners and a convalescent home at Westgate-on-Sea, Kent, where four years ago a new modern ground-floor annexe was added to enable patients to go to the home straight from hospital. Separate rooms are provided, and while some patients contribute towards their maintenance, many are admitted free of charge.

2-Soviet Mind and World Realities t
In this lecture Mr. Kennan speaks about the attitude taken by the Soviet leaders to the non-communist world and the extent to which this attitude is produced by sincere belief as opposed to the demands of propaganda. He then traces for Western policy the broader implications of this pattern in Soviet psychology.
