'Every Man's Neighbour'
An Introduction to the subject of International Co-operation by Sir ALFRED ZIMMERN The idea behind this series is to show how many varieties of international co-operation exist in the contemporary world. From the administration of international law at The Hague, down to private agreements between producers in different countries, there is a surprising amount of actual co-operation to meet the civil needs and problems that are common to us all.
Tonight the series is to be introduced by Sir Alfred Zimmern , the well-known authority on international affairs. He is Professor of International Relations at Oxford, and constantly visits Geneva, where he holds a sort of international University course every summer.

After graduating in -the Peers College and the Tokyo Imperial University, he went to Berlin in 1921 and studied composition privately with Professor George Schu mann and Franz Schreker and conducting with Erich KVeiber. He established the Tokyo New Symphony Orchestra in 1925 and has ever since directed it as the permanent conductor. The New Symphony Orchestra is the only permanent orchestra in Tokyo to give monthly subscription concerts. Viscount Konoye was invited by the Society, of Foreign Relations to the U.S.S.R. and conducted symphony concerts in Leningrad and Moscow in 1930.

He was elected as a member of the House of Peers in 1932. His ]ast appearance in the studio here was in November, 1933, when his programme included a piece of his own.
