Description
Edward Weeks , editor of the Atlantic Monthly,who visited England last month as a guest of the British Ministry of Information, writes of his impressions of the trip, What impressed me was not the desolate waste spaces from which the plaster and wreckage have been cleared, what impressed me was how London goes on about its business, with a calm acceptance of the ruins... the British pin their hope on the future... they pin their hope on the new educational bill... I found a good many people who were chinning themselves on the Beveridge report. Some 275,000 copies of the report in a penny pamphlet have been distributed to the armed forces.
