BR TO BBC / F.J. SAINT, 6 DEC. 1946
BRACERS 57534. TLS(X). BBC Written Archives
Proofread by K. Blackwell


Trinity College,
Cambridge.
6th December, 1946.

Miss Saint,
The B.B.C.,
Broadcasting House,
London, W.1.

Dear Miss Saint,

Miss Kallin asked me to write to you about the title of the talk that I am to give for her. I incline to think that “Science and Democracy” might do as a title,1 but I should be glad to hear whether that seems satisfactory, or, if not, can you offer a suggestion?

I do not remember exactly how many words you want, but I seem to think that it was about 1,800. Would you be so kind as to let me know whether my recollection is correct on this point?

Yours truly,
<signed> Russell.
