(This programme was recorded in the New York Office of the BBC)
Felix Greene, the BBC's North American Representative, has just arrived in this country bringing with him from New York the discs on which this programme was recently recorded in the States. It was on July 4, 1776, while the American Colonies were at war with Great Britain, that the Declaration of Independence was signed. In it are contained most of the fundamental principles on which American democracy of today is based. The drafting of the Declaration was carried out under Franklin, Jefferson, Sherman, Livingston, and Adams. Tonight's programme is based on historical documents, and will describe in a number of dramatic sequences the events that led up to the war with Great Britain.
Listeners will also hear some of the more notable debates and arguments that took place between the five drafters of the Declaration during the days that immediately preceded it.

a conversation between the retiring Bishop of London and F. H. A. Phillips
Dr. Winnington Ingram has spent the last fifty years in London, and has earned for himself a reputation not only as a great bishop, but as a man of tireless energy and good humour. Although over eighty years old, he still indulges in games. He has just retired from his diocese, and in a short time is setting off on a well-earned tour round the world.
Tonight he will tell
F. H. A. Phillips about some of the things that he most loves in London, and of his feelings on saying goodbye to his home city.
