Concerning BR's lectures in Australia.

"I went to Russell's first public lecture last night. There I found myself next to Harold Nicholas, and Grave <?> beside him whom I had heard was ill. The lecture on population as obstacle to world government, was very well done and pleased people generally—including Harold. Nothing new but bringing together forcibly and clearly a number of relevant facts with Sardonic asides ('The world wars have been very disappointing in respect to excess population' and the like)."
