• STAMPEDE INTO SANCTIONS [To the Editor of TILE SPECTATOR.]

SIR,—All my life I have suspected that the saying " There are far more madmen outside the asylums than in " is only too true. Now certain confirmation comes from Mr. J. M. N. Jeffries, who writes to say that only a madman would say that peace in Abyssinia is worth revolution in Italy. It only goes to prove that there arc tens of millions of madmen at large in Europe alone.—Yours truly,
