:mthems of most other European countries arc available. No recording of the tune of tlio "Red Flag" as the tlussian National Anthem was available in Australia, said the sales manager of the Gramophone Co., Ltd., Mr A. Kerr.

Rccords of the German and Italian national anthems, the Fascist songs, he. added, had been removed from the Australian catalogue since the outbreak of Avar.
