A PROTEST.
[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] SIR,—Having just seen the Spectator of September 1st, I really must protest at your publishing now a letter that was written and sent to you last March, as since writing it your disapproval of France and the occupation of the Ruhr has become so strong that in my eyes your paper is no longer in a position to be capable of doing any " useful propaganda" among the French. On the contrary, it might even do harm to the Entente by reason of its present opinions on the subject of their policy. - I must ask you to publish this letter, as the statement over my signature regarding the usefulness of your paper in France appearing now gives an entirely erroneous impression of my views regarding France and the occupation, etc., which happen to differ entirely from those held by you, and might lead to misunderstandings between my many friends in France and myself.—I am, Sir, etc., A. M. Borr.
• Tower House, Caistor, Lincolnshire. • [We are very sorry. The letter had been in type for a long time and we had been prevented from publishing it again and again by pressure on our space.—!En., Spectator.]
