PROFESSOR MARTIN:
I
am afraid that because the
Governor has given us very full and frank answers to your questions, our time is now up and although we earn ill-will from those who have been frustrated, in the long run we would earn
greater ill-will from the audience and speaker if we let our
reputation collapse.
May I briefly, but nonetheless sincerely, thank you very much, sir, for what seems to me to have been a masterly balance
between frankness and carefulness. We recognise that the one is
desirable and the other is necessary. We are grateful to you.
I am sure we have all profited from your talk on 'Hard Times
Great Expectations'. I hope you will come back before very long
and be able to work our mutual friend into your title!
[Applause)
