Notes and topics

BR, writing to the editor of the Observer, refers to the text of a cable he received from the Greek poet Costas Varnalis. BR mentions that "I hold it intolerable that any society should imprison political opponents for 20 years and reduce them to human wrecks that welcome death as deliverance from further agony." The prisoners concerned are John Vlachos and Lyssandros Nicolopoulos.
