The War Resisters
A study of Clifford Allen (1889-1939) written and narrated by C. R. HEWITT with Carleton Hobbs as Clifford Allen
Lord Allen of Hurtwood was for twenty-five years a leading figure in the intellectual opposition to war. He suffered grievously as a result. Before he died his convictions had so changed that he could say: ' In my judgment the use of collective force to restrain ar. aggressor by judicial process should not be called war.'
