Notes and topics

Dora encloses a proof sent with "a charming letter" by T.S. Eliot (see Rec. Acq. 1077; record 57866), who doesn't want his Criterion piece to be construed as an attack on BR. It begins with an excerpt from "A Motley Pantheon".

There is a galley correction. BR gives his sentiments on nineteenth-century men of culture: "When one views the nineteenth century in perspective, it is clear that science is its only claim to distinction...."

Other topics: Tsai, Chancellor of Peking University, and Boxer Indemnity. Rent Act and Labour government.
