A SPECTATOR'S NOTEBOOK

THE Prince of Wales, I see, is to broadcast on his new Jubilee Trust Fund* for Youth. It is time we heard something more of the organization of the fund. The Prince's speech was admirable, but analysed down it will be found to consist mainly of the definition of a broad objective. Subcriptions will quite certainly flow in larger volume - when the constitution of the Trust Connell is announced. An appeal for money to be expended simply in grants to supplement the funds of existing organizations is not inspiring to the maximum degree. And the appointment of trustees representing those organizations exclusively is not all that the occasion needs. I should like to see one or two unexpected invitations issued. The author of ,Love on. the Dole, for example, might be very much in place on such a body.
