...exonerating everyone except J. H. Thomas the verdict, although otherwise wholly a source of satisfaction, last week moved many British hearts to pity. It was recalled that Leaker Thomas had been an intimate friend of the late King George, and as the London Times said: "Let no one withhold a measure of sympathy from Thomas himself and the family concerned.... In the crisis of 1931 he [Thomas] was one of only two or three men who stood firm in the midst of political chaos and made possible the National Government which staved off disaster...

This may be justifiable in order to allow new members to join without undue burden, but, in this case, it seems a little unreasonable to withhold this same privilege from first semester members. The misunderstanding has been enhanced by making provision for an installment payment of the dues. In requesting the continuation of membership in the second semester, the committee in charge definitely used the word "renewal" in regard to our membership status. This seems inconsistent...
