'Friday, 19th February, Last night?s meeting was a drawn battle. The ?wants? and the ?don?t wants? did an immense amount of talking, and were theatrical than they ever manage to be on stage. Milligan and Mother stuck their tongues in their cheeks and waited ? until a plan was formulated which while presenting some outward appearance of novelty will leave essentials much as they were. Read ? ?Path to Rome? (H. Belloc)'.
