A series of six talks
by Harold Kurtz
The fourth of this series has as its subject the long and strenuous initiative of Lord Lansdowne, a former Foreign Secretary, to bring about a negotiated peace between the Allies and the Central Powers. Having failed in late 1916 to influence the British Cabinet, he took the bold step a year later of making his views public, an action which earned him much approval and intense unpopularity, both from unexpected quarters.

(Brest Litovsk by Professor Hugh Seton-Watson: June 19 These talks are being printed in "The Listener")
