Follows on from
39 R. "I have to read a
paper to the Economics Club here. I will have to be decent. I shant
be able to write it at once, partly because I cant think what to
write it on." [1] 
]"I
am not helping any Liberal.
[2] I am rather secluded here, and have excuses for not
doing anything. It would be silly to undertake some job [...]
just to save my conscience for going to Ipswich (my labor friend is
there having a straight fight with a conservative)."
