This appears to be a dictated message for the Committee of 100. "It is not surprising that after the very severe work of preparing the December 9 demonstration some of those most actively concerned should, under the influence of fatigue and partial discouragement, feel inclined to postpone further action until a period of recuperation.
I do not think that a movement such as ours can afford such a luxury." Below this statement is a drawing in pencil of a "Peace" sign with "100" incorporated in it. To the left and below this drawing "HUDDEI" has been written in pencil, which may be a name or the beginning of "HUDDERsfield".

On the verso, in pencil and in ?'s hand, is the following statement where a line has been drawn through it: "This is simply a statement that WE, Committee as a whole, fell down on organisation. WE must not let it happen again." A new statement follows, also in pencil and in ?'s hand: "If Russell were able, he would be at supporters' meeting. He is not, so he sends his views."
