Light on the recent War Office reforms emerges from an

unexpected source. In Captain Liddell-Hart's autobio- graphy in the current Who's Who is included the following entry: " Collaborated with the War Minister, Mr. Hore- Belisha, in the reorganisation of the Army, 1937-38, suggest- ing a programme of reforms, of which sixty-two were achieved by 1939." And the end, it may be inferred, is not yet. Unless, indeed, peace returned to the War Office when the late Secretary of State departed.
