Mr. Zilliacus’ Position
Sir, —In a recent issue of your paper “Beelzebub" criticised the letter of another of your correspondents. "I Wonder.” Being curious. I looked i( up and discovered it was a very excellent letter indeed. Its meaning should have been plain to everyone, even “Beelzebub," who. however, took advantage of the fact that presumably two words had been omitted, enabling him to deliberately twist the meaning of the letter.
The letter in question, as far as I could see, did not infer that Mr. K. Ziliiacus was unknown to the public. It very obviously referred to what was going on behind the scenes as being unknown to the public. Neither did it infer that Mr. Ziliiacus was a Communist, it being well known that he is Labour candidate for Gateshead, but that did not alter the fact that lie resigned from the secretariat of the League of Nations last year and that he was able to make available to the public information gained during his lengthy service with that organisation. which in no uncertain way exposed the intrigues of the so-called National Government.
B. FAIR,
