Content Description

Morley asked him to answer Spielmann's letter. The newspaper has pledged itself to the reform policy and cannot now back a policy to boycott. The Royal Commission will not be one of enquiry, like those of 1836 and 1863, but one of executive action. They were going to send a circular asking for opinion, but this was stopped on receipt of Spielmann's letter, and one from Clausen.
