Next Week's 4 ‘ Spectator" Recent developments in the United States
have served to emphasise the conviction constantly expressed in these columns that a good understanding between the British and American peoples is an essential basis for the peace of the world. With a view to promoting the comprehension of American problems by readers of The Spectator, we have arranged to publish fortnightly, and oftener if necessary, an article by an experienced American correspondent inter- preting current American thought on the outstanding questions of the day, domestic and foreign, social and cultural as well as political. The first article will, it is hoped, appear next week. In the same issue will be published the first of a series of three articles by Sir Daniel Hall, late Chief Scien- tific Adviser to the Ministry of Agriculture, on the future of farming in Great Britain. Next week's article will deal with the present position of the industry.
