| Description | Letter, dated 30 June, in which Chamberlain, 10 Downing Street [London], thanks Smedley and the Midland Group [of Government supporters] for a letter of support. Chamberlain expresses his appreciation of 'this reaffirmation of confidence in the Government's foreign policy' and loyalty to him.
On the back of this letter have been pasted three newspaper articles: two detail activities in which Crooke (1861-1951) was involved during his time with the Legion National Executive Council and the third cites his suggestion that 'German prisoners of war should be put on British ships ...as a deterrent to Germany's mine campaign'. |
