| 52408 | Murray encloses BR's letter of 18 March 1945 on The Problems of Philosophy. |
| 52409 | A transcription is attached. BR thinks that revising The Problems of Philosophy would "involve a pretty complete re-writing". |
| 52410 | BR asks Murray to consider signing an enclosed letter to the New York Times on food parcels and German starvation. For the enclosure's transcription, see record 68555. |
| 52411 | On food parcels to the U.K. and German starvation. When published, the letter was signed also by the Bishop of Chichester and Victor Gollancz and dated 11 Oct. 1946.

| 52416 | On the Trondheim incident. BR owed his preservation to tobacco, drink and WWI. "I wish we met sometimes, not only at Winston's gargantuan feasts." (Churchill.) BR "abandoned temperance when the King took the pledge in 1914". There is a typed transcription by the Bodleian at record 79420. |

| 52418 | On the difficulty of their debating (re Asia, Russia, and civilization). This concerns their appearance on the BBC's "London Forum", prerecorded 5 May 1949 and broadcast 6 June, on the topic "Is Regional Association the Most Practical Step Toward World Government?". "Much the most delicate branch of the subject is Asia, where democracy and economic justice conflict with the preservation of civilization. ... nothing we can do will prevent Asia from going communist." "Where democracy and civilization conflict, I am for civilization." A Bodleian transcription is at record 79423. |
| 52419 | Re the Order of Merit. There is a Bodleian transcription at record 79424. |
| 52420 | BR is having some of his letters to Murray typed and then will return them. On BR's pacifism in WWI but not against Hitler. On Murray's "Myself When Young" (a recent broadcast). A Bodleian transcription of the original is at record 79425. BR has queried the year, typed as "45". On the First vs. the Second World War. People would say BR is "rash and impetuous". Selecting material (for BR's Autobiography) is "terribly difficult". |
