357Z. Harrod to Lindemann,
18 June, 1935
[a]
Harrod thinks
that a decision taken during a London meeting in favour of
S[alter]. and against Lindemann depended on broad political
matter --"India etc."--, but S. was in reality morally defeated.
Harrod suggests that Lindemann should not take any further action for
the time being, because anything said would reinstate S. a little in
popular favour. Continues at
359 Z.

- 1. this probably regards the Prof.
trying to run for a Oxford University seat at the Nov. 1935
general election. The Conservative Committee selected instead

Worlds. The Official Life of Professor F. A. Lindemann, Viscount
Cherwell, London: Collins, 1961, pp. 146-151.
