My own darling

The debate on the address was very dull yesterday. What
promises to be a very dull session is casting its shadow before. I
had a long talk with Walter Elliot and Oliver Stanley. I feel
pretty certain that unemployment will dish us unless we can get a
really big imaginative scheme before the country, and the only scheme
I can see is my idea for emigration. Conservative Headquarters seems
to be living in a fools paradise.

Have you read Topsy this week? She is perfectly scandalous
about poor Anthony Eden.

I had a very pleasant night at the Royal Hospital. Aunt
Carrie was staying there, and was very agreeable. Your Mother looks
very well indeed.

This morning I have been engaged in discussions with my
Argentine friend, and other people. I lunched with Wallace Nesbit,
the great lawyer of Toronto, you remember. He thinks Mackenzie King's
Government may lose the next election over Lady Willingdon! How
different with the B.M.!

I am just going down to the House, and hope to dine quietly
