before the Primrose League Political School, which has received
excellent notices in the national and provincial press.

additional details on Harrod's speech see letter
682 R. Harrod's address was reported, for instance, by the
Evening Standard ("Birth Rate Decline", 26 June 1937, p. 6).
According to The Primrose League Gazette, "the meeting aroused
widespread interest in the national and provincial press" ("Our
Declining Population", The Primrose League Gazette XLIV:8, August
1937, p. 6). The Times and the Manchester Guardian, however, do
not seem to have reported it.
