THAT FIERY SON OF

WHEN I first became a member of the British House of Commons in 1935 an old member said to me: "This is a strange, exasperating and won- derful place. It is capable of more public cruelty and more personal kindness than any other in- stitution in the country."

I was reminded of these far off words when we heard that Aneurin Bevan had fought and lost. his last great fight. For long weeks he had struggled for survival, and there were periode when it seem- ed that he might win. But at last his vaulting spirit could no longer be contained in his pain-wracked body,

It is not the nature of any Parliament to be of one mind brilliant but the death of the Welshman, who fought his way from the mines to a high place at Westminster, plunged the House of Commons, and indeed the nation into a deep spried.

In a crowded chamber the Prime Minister spoke of Bevan's humanly, his cloquence, his dedicated service to the under privileged, his vaulting spirit and his zest of life.

With a rasping volce Bracken shouted, “Shut up you Bollinger Bolshagik!" It was brilliant, it was cruel, and the words hit him like a blow between the eyes. Bollinger was Nye's favourite brand of champagne but sud- denly it was his poikileal enemy. He withdrew from the West End and the company of famous and wealthy men. More than
