THE LABOUR PARTY AND WAR LOAN: [To the Editor of
the SPECTATOR.]
SIR,—If " Vindex " has " plenty of experience of how laws and Ministries are made," he furnishes us with a telling illus- tration of the little wisdom with which we are governed. " Vindex " sees red. The Labour Party are beyond the pale. " Do they not advocate the lowering of interest on War L6ans ? " The answer is, No " Vindex " cannot point to any authoritative pronouncement by the Labour Party in favour of any such proposal. It was certainly discussed and deliberately turned down. Surely one who is " no novice in political life " could find something better to do than trying to make our flesh creep with a Birkenhead bogy.—I am, Sir, /cc., MAURICE SPENCER, Colonel. (Prospective Labour Candidate for Gillingham.) Canterbury Club, Canterbury.
