E.S.U. Dinner
“We, as one of the more fortunate countries of the world, should be helping actively to develop Comi monwealth associations,” , said Mr J. Bruce Brown, national president of the English - Speaking Union, when replying to a welcome at a dinner held in his honour by the Canterbury branch. In reviewing the activities of the union, Mr Brown said that although the organisation was founded to bring closer the peoples of the Commonwealth and the United States, its role could now be widened to include many other countries. English had become the international language of science and other skills and the union might consider extending its field of influence ito countries beyond its preisent constitutional limits.
