GENEVA IMPRESSIONS Sit,—Professor Power's reply to my comment on her
" Geneva Impressions " shows that she has not even understood the minor point that a journalist " as a professional observer of contemporary events " may have opportunities to make careful inquiries, which are denied to the historian. But the deductions made from her entirely erroneous representation of happenings at Geneva and of the role of the European neutrals, which you publish in your correspondence columns over the signature of Sydney Horler, show that one has to be more explicit. Two acts of aggression have been com- mitted during the last five months, one against Poland and one against Finland. May I suggest that future critics make sure of the comparative value—to the living victims of aggres- sion—of the assistance given, on the one hand to Poland and on the other hand to Finland, before they praise one country and blame another?—Yours faithfully, BJARNE BRAATOY. 53 Albany Street, London, N.W. I.
