SIR,—May I add one word to my praise of Mr.
Gordon, which you so generously printed a fortnight ago? In today's Sunday Express Mr. Gordon, alone of London columnists, points out that if the component parts of an Austin motor-car are valued, at cost, at £200 and the car is sold at £800, the manufacturers are making a profit of 300 per cent. This imaginative economic thinking, which is in the very highest traditions of the Beaver- brook press, is exactly the kind of stimulus needed by the youth of today, and I hope that in all fairness you will give it as much pub- licity as you give to the jests of Mr. Greene and his friends.—Yours faithfully,
