NEW ZEALAND DAY.
BROADCASTED TALK
BAD IMPRESSION CREATED,
(Per United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, November 19. Mr Hugo Anson, a New Zealander, resident in England, writes to protest against the talk on New Zealand Day given by a British Broadcasting Company on September 27. He says that he blushes with shame to think of the impression it must have made. The music was entirely unrepresentative, and the talk was childish, and nothing could have been bettor calculated to prevent anyone taking an interest in New Zealand. It gave the idea that the Dominion was still a country of savages, without much culture. Mr Anson also encloses a letter from a Spanish violinist, expressing great disappointment with the musical part of tire programme.
