BRITAIN'S HONOUR
The Editor, "The Listener" Sir, — The following extract from a review of General Dawes’ Journal (just published) will be of intérest to those readers whose spiritual home is still within the British Commonwealth: "At the height of the financial crisis of 1931 Dawes knew from the inside of the desperate pass to which British finances had been brought: and his comment was: ‘Clouds and darkness now surround. this brave and devoted people in their national life, as often before: but again they are girding themselves for the supreme effort which the situation makes imperative.’"’ That is ‘an eloquent and discerning tribute from a neutral. It was written in 1931. Is it not prophetically applicable to 1940? Yours etc.,
