Scope and Contents

Letter from Major-General Sir Hugh Tudor (42 Circular Road, St Johns, Newfoundland [Canada]) thanking WSC for seeing his son. He expresses sorrow that WSC is being put through the strain of an election campaign, and comments on the Labour Party and Clement Attlee, "Now that we have smashed National Socialism in Germany Labour apparantly wants to start something like it in England. The present Labour leader as one of the Big Three seems to me rather like a mouse in a rat's job!". He expresses pleasure that John Anderson [later 1st Lord Waverley, Chancellor of the Exchequer] is standing by WSC. [Signed typescript].
