Scope and content

British Broadcasting Corporation, Broadcasting House, London, W.1. - Sorry that there has been 'a good deal of confusion' about Trevelyan's Latin poetry translations, to be broadcast today: the fee of fifteen guineas offered was on the assumption that the translations were made specifically for the programme, but she now understands from Trevelyan that most of them have been taken from previous publications and that the Programme Contracts Department has already sent him an inclusive contract. Retracts the offer and apologises for the 'muddle'.
