FORGOTTEN MEN
SIR,—As Sir Anthony Eden said that the quarrel was with Colonel Nasser and not with the Egyptian people, so Colonel Nasser now expresses the friendliest feelings for the British people but not for HBM's Government.
On this point there is a little comment to be made: the hundred-odd former British per- manent officials of the Egyptian Government —with whom no present or past Egyptian Government ever had any quarrel whatsoever —would appreciate very much the speedy con- clusion of their compensation claims already recognised by Colonel Nasser's government.
Perhaps the shareholders of the former Suez Canal Company would feel more reassured by the settlement of this little matter which has been outstanding for four years now.—Yours faithfully,
C/o Ionian Bank, Athens
