TALKING BOOKS
AID FOR THE BLIND Research at St. Dunstan’s PLAN FOR EMPIRE LIBRARY (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) 9, 10.35 a.m.) LONDON, April 8. Research work at St. Dunstan’s Institute for the Blind has led to a decision to make an extensive test of “talking books.” These will supply reading aloud of a number of classics either through ear phones or loud speakers. The production of a library of talking books is being planned for use throughout the Empire and in the United States, particularly by those who were blinded as a result of war service. Those who were born blind will continue to learn Braille.
