Must Britain decide now to join the European Economic Community? Mr. Younger tays that the political implications arc so far-reaching and at the same time so obscure that any immediate decision would have to be negative. He thinks that as the future form of European unity becomes clearer Britain will be able to achieve a satisfactory association with her neighbours which will take account of the differences between Britain and Europe as well as the similarities.

Read by Sam Wanamaker
The characteristic world of Bernard Mala mud's stories is the poor Jewry of New York. The Magic Barrel, which takes as its hero an earnest rabbinical student in search of a wife, is a hilarious and sad exploration of a corner of that world.
