GARVIN
(James Louis, 1868-1947, Newspaper Editor)
Typed Letter Signed to C. Williams,
explaining that he has been "digging through depths of Marconi evidence ... It would be useless to think of touching the Education question by way of detached detail just now. 'The Pall Mall Gazette' has indeed done excellently well ... The penalty of thriving, however, is that there is less room ... there is a greater demand ... for general news, not merely what the public wants in the vulgar sense ... I fear politics were never so full of humbug and I shall begin to be really interested in the Government plan when I know what it is going to be ...", 2 sides 4to, Pall Mall Gazette headed paper, 25th April
