Here is an original play which furnishes an excellent basis for discussion of that vexed question, the future of radio drama. It is by a playwright who has provided outstanding indications of the possible lines of development of the broadcast play.

Very many listeners will remember, since it has been twice performed, 'Lord Jim' as adapted for radiation; that was an example of the mingled use of direct and indirect speech, a device aptly suggested by the original form of Conrad's romance.

Then came 'Pursuit', frankly an exhibition of the purely technical resources of radio scene-shifting. Cecil Lewis was the author of both.

Now, in 'Good Breeding', he presents for our consideration a third possibility - a play which must depend for its success not upon action and spectacular, or shall we say auricular, effects, but upon the purely human interest of a theme worked out in the dialogue incidental to the plot. 'Good Breeding' is a symposium of points of view of a modern social problem, but at the same time, excellent comedy: the 'love interest', even, so far from being absent, is a necessity to the story.
