CHURCHILL.
“Some speakers suggest the poet: some suggest the painter or the musician. Mr Churchill suggests the architect. Another comparison is possible—that with the arranger of: an old-world battle. He stands over his arguments and liis phrases like a general over an army. He groups arguments, posts them at critical points, arrays them in shining uniform, then hurls them with clatter and noise. He loves colour and sound, but the colours are garish and the sound is not melodious ; it is strident, loud, explosive. He believes in the might of number and does not fight with a small army. . . His vocabulary is the largest in Parliament.” Prom “ Westminster Voices,” .by Hr .Tames Johnston, a speech-taster of long experience in the Parliamentary Press Gallery.
