In the letter which begins " Dear Mr. Silber Thank you for your letter. I think it would be extremely important to us both to exchange copies of our magazines and I have entered your address in our files". Hall goes on to talk about Ethnic's editorial viewpoint apologizes for a misunderstanding over his reference to and use of the term "hootenanny" requests comments and criticisms discusses British traditional singers and offers his hospitality and advice on "who to see and hear and contact" for anybody coming to England. " In an aggressive style Ethnic championed the collection and study of authentic traditional style and repertoire in contradistinction to what its editors saw as a burgeoning revival movement based on false principles little knowledge and cosy middle-class fashion. The magazine included several important articles based on first-hand experience such as one on May Day at Padstow in issue number three and several on particular singers and musicians and its criticisms are also useful for evidence of a critical time in the post-war development of folklore studies and the folk-song and dance revival."
