( MY regret is concerned with Your reviewer as your late political columnist and as I considered him kamongst the greats — and how (few there are — I mourn his (passing in that capacity and your I own shortsightedness in letting jhim go. It almost parallels the :Daily Mai/ and Bernard Levin and I hope that both of you live to regret your shortsightedness in passing up giants for fifth-raters.
