contrary, he would not give a thought to the question
of whom he was collaborating with provided only that
they were helping to stave off the disaster in prospect
and to rebuild the organisation of essential health
measures.
Ride has an altogether different style of
mind according to our information - intensely patriotic
and devoted to Anglo-Chinese co-operation in opposing
and defeating the Japanese in all circumstances and
under all conditions. His criticisms, therefore, of
Selwyn-Clarke are understandable but should certainly
not have a decisive influence on our estimation of
Selwyn-Clarke's present activities.
Yours sincerely,
