...case you cannot go to the "Pops" tonight, there are other opportunities on every ensuing night with music which is almost guaranteed to soothe the fevered mind. For example, there is "Pomp and Circumstance" on Friday evening, or if you are in a slightly less martial mood, the Peer Gynt Suite. For the die-hards, there is the "Bolero" on Saturday, and for those who are seriously inclined, Heinrich Gebhard is to play Liszt's "Second Piano Concerto" on Sunday evening...

...could have found no words. One can no longer put an edge on the verbal sword, and dash up intellectual Bunker Hills; if one did, one would trip over the scabbard. Any one who tries to give battle at the present day can echo the despairing words of Peer Gynt: "It's like a fight among bears, half-asleep and snarling." The fact is, there's nothing to hit, and if one hits it, it doesn't care. Yesterday Britain and Italy demanded that Germany return to the League and to the arms parley: Germany only withdrew in the first...
