INTERVENTION IN SPAIN [To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR.] SIR,—I

consider it deplorable that a periodical of the standing of The Spectator should say that " Italy appears to be still sending men to Spain and Germany material," and yet ignore the shameful truth, which is known to almost everybody, that by far the worst offender has all along been Jew-ridden France. Really, what a powerful place Europe would be if it were not for its Press ! Lookers-on may see most of the game, but spectators make most of the trouble !—Yours faithfully, P. R. BUTLER, Lt.-Col. Nine Mile Water Farmhouse, Nether Wallop, Hants.
