Sir John Harris: 'A Summing Up'
Sir John Harris, author of 'A Century of Emancipation', gave the first talk in this series on April 24. Since then, a number of authoritative speakers, among them Lady Simon and Viscount Cecil of Chelwood, have reviewed the history of slavery and the efforts which are being made in our time towards world-wide emancipation of slaves. From these talks have emerged startling facts concerning the existence of various systems of slavery at the present time and much valuable first-hand evidence as to the beneficial results that emancipation has brought in its train. This evening Sir John Harris revisits the microphone to summarise the talks and draw final conclusions from the wealth of evidence so far presented.
