A Discussion between Sir EDWARD GRIGG , K.C.M.G., K.C.V.O., and Dr. J. H. OLDHAM
APPROXIMATELY 15,000 white settlers live in Kenya and 3,000,000 Africans, 40,000 Indians, and 10,000 Arabs. How shall these races live side by side to their mutual advantage ? That is the question to be discussed in the broadcast this evening.
Sir Edward Grigg ,- D.S.O., M.C., has sat as National Conservative member for Altrincham since 1933. After a brilliant university and journalistic career, he joined the Grenadier Guards in 1914, and achieved something unprecedented by rising within three years from ensign to G.S.O.i of the Guards Division. Amongst many other activities, he was Private Secretary to Mr. Lloyd George from 1921 to 1922, M.P. for Oldham 1922-5, and Secretary to the Rhodes Trustees , 1923-5. He was Governor of Kenya Colony from 1925 to 1931.
Dr. J. H. Oldham has been secretary of the International Missionary Council since 1921 ; Administrative Director of the International Institute of African languages and cultures ; a member of the Advisory Committee on education in the Colonies ; of the Institut Colonial International ; of the East Africa Commission on Closer Union from 1927 to 1928.

Sir OLIVER LODGE : ' Do we Survive ? '
IT is no reflection on the distinguished speakers who have already broadcast in this series to say that tonight's talk has been eagerly awaited, for they themselves will almost certainly be among the most interested of listeners.
Sir Oliver Lodge , by his illustrious achievements and brave beliefs, is known outside the world of science. To the man and woman in the street his name is familiar.
As he himself puts it, those who have come before him in this series have discussed facts, and he is to jump at once from facts to the conclusion to be drawn from them. Do we survive ?
This question can never be far from the thoughts of us all. This man believes, that man doubts, another hopes, yet another denies. Sir Oliver Lodge , with the simplicity of a great man, will tell listeners of communications he believes that he has had with members of his own family, and he will deal with communications believed to have been received from various people after their death.
IN THIS PLAY is presented the unvarnished story of the last years of the Emperor Napoleon's life in captivity on the island of St. Helena. Here, with all his 'conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils shrunk to this little measure' of Longwood and its petty estate, the Emperor is revealed as an essentially human personality, playing the chief part in a tragi-comedy in which he is supported by the loyal but exasperating members of his little court, the faintly sinister, yet pathetic, figure of Sir Hudson Lowe, his jailer, and the officers of the English garrison. Norman Edwards, the author of Quarrel Island, contributes a short introductory article on the story behind the play on page 622.
