What relevance has the convent to an increasingly materialistic world? How does a nun reconcile the demands of her enclosure with the demands of her womanhood and of the world outside her convent? Can a nun of a teaching order. for example, satisfactorily impart to her pupils that knowledge of the ways of the world that is an essential part of their education — destined, as most of them are, not to be nuns themselves?
LESLIE SMITH talks about these and other matters to a DOMINICAN NUN, herself the headmistress of her convent's school

With the Chrysler take-over of Rootes, more than half of Britain's car industry is now owned by Americans. Some people resent the encroachment of American business in this and many other fields: they fear U.S. subsidiaries may not be managed in the best interests of Britain.
This programme looks at the extent of American control of British industry and the effect it has on our export trade. Are American methods really more efficient, and what are the dangers of American control?
Narrated by EDGAR LUSTGARTEN
