LORD RUNCIMAN WANTS TO JOIN

"Naval Reserve A
-Fine Idea"
The following letters have been exchanged between Lord Runci- man, the 89-year-old shipowner, and Sir Samuel Hoare, First Lord of the Admiralty:
My dear Sir Samuel Hoare, Regarding your suggestion that yacht owners and" yachtamen should become attached to a Naval Reserve. I think it a Ane, original idea, and would like to have particulars of your
plan. If the conditions are not prohi- bitory-age limit, for one I would like to join,
I am in my both year, but can still handle a big or small sailing vessel," mend or fake a sail and handle a marlinspike; but have në testimonials, so would have to be taken on trust!
7
Anyway, I wish you and your naval polley complete success,
Yours faithfully,
(Signed) RUNCIMAN,
SIR S. HOARE'S REPLY
Dear Lord Runcimani,
I write to thank you for your helpful and friendly letter.
There is no one's help that I would appreciate more than your.
Your long and active life OWIL. must have given you as great knowledge of the sea and ships as that of anyone in the land.
I am arranging to have parti- culars sent to you about the new Reserve. The age for entry is from 18 to 38. I fear, therefore, that according to the strict inter- of the conditions you pretation would not be eligible.
