Fighting Nov. & riot in Dec. 1947. mss .. "Where is Humphreys regiment,... What a rotten life the Army is in these days - The W.D. of course will have all its own pet people - If it means Humphrey can never command unless he goes to his regiment ... If the Arabs attack the Jews - as they say they will - and the Bolshies back the Arabs I should fear it will mean another war - I see in the S.A. papers that the Crown in England is bringing a case for criminal libel against the Editor of a paper for libelling The "Jewish race" !!!- I wonder if the Crown would bring a case against The Editor of the "Daily London" for libel against the "English Employers?" It is a sad pity Hitler did not make a job of the Fiesty headlines ". Ref; 207-170.
