MR. CHURCHILL
The Editor, The Listener. Sir,-In case you missed J. L. Garvin's great leader in the "Observer" of April 7, I send you a prophetic extract: "Mr. Churchill is strongly and vividly endowed to preside over such a body (a War Council), and to bring full imaginative grasp to the unprecedented strategy of three-dimensioned war. But this ought to be a whole-time job if ever there was one. Now look at the other side. The First Lord gives unsparing and inspiring devotion to his work for the Navy. It is a business of ceaseless administrative intensity..... To make his broadcasts as he does with the vibration that goes home to every hearer, and leaves no one indifferent, Mr. Churchill has not cnly to find time but to force it. Yet the nation and the Empire and our friends everywhere wish that he had margin enough to make more speeches." Yours etc.,
G. M.

Christchurch, May 31, 1940.
