The New Statesman did not publish an issue this week
in order to allow its staff the full Christmas holidays. We were pleasantly surprised to find in its issue of Decem- ber 22nd a note in which it advised those readers " who could not for fourteen days dispense with a weekly review, to buy the Spectator and read for one week the oth•sr side." We cannot allow so signal an act of generosity to go unthanked. We can only reply that we hope our readers do sometimes buy the New Statesman to see more of the " other side " than our space allows us to exhibit.
