THE CHINA MAIL, SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1959.
Why don't they
leave Eden
alone?
IR Anthony Eden has left the shores of England for a holiday
in Mexico. He must be taking with him same bitter thoughts,
During the last few months he has been increasingly referred to in contemptuous terms by those who in the days of his power would have thought themselves lucky to have a word with him. It has become the fashion to lay the whole blame of Suez upon his shoulders as if he was alone responsible for the calamity.
1 meself have been dismayed at the altitude of some of my colleagues who now dismiss him without generosity or kindliness, vel who at the time of Suez were his most fervent supportere.
