Wodehouse
As
Traitor
-
Tho
Victoria
Times
asks
what
will
the
redoubtable
and
ubiquitous
Jeeves
say
to
this
recent
dispatch
from
London:
"Southport
Town
Council
has
ordered
that
all
the
novels
of
P.
G.
Wodehouse
in
the
town
library
should
be
disposed
of
as
'waste
paper'
because
of
his'
broadcasts
from
Berlin."
All
the
English-speaking
world
had
derived
much
enjoyment
from
the
doings
of
"Bertie
Wooster"
and
the
impeccable
"gentleman's
gentleman,"
Jeeves
the
inimitable
servant
who
could
look
at
his
employer
with
that
intangible
something
in
his
eye,
or
curl
of
the
mouth,
which
registered
respectf
ul
scorn
or
decorous
jubilation.
It
requires
considerable
mental
effort
to-
bring
oneself
to
the
belief
that
Pelham.
Grenville
Wodehouse
really
has
gone
over
heart
and
soul
to
the
service
of
that
hideous
little
beast,
the
Herr
Doktor
Goebbels.
But
there
seems
little
doubt
about
it
now.
The
BBC
recently
extended
its
facilities
to
the
Daily
Mirror's
County
Derry
Irishman,
William
Connorwho,
as
"Cassandra,"
has
figuratively
sent
his
verbal
Celtic
fangs
into
persons
of
high
and
low
estate
when
he
nas
tnought
a
case
was
worth
his
journalistic
attention
Here
is
Connor's
comment:
"I
have
to
tell
you
...
of
a
rich
man
trying-to
make
his
last
and
greatest
sale,
that
of
his
countrv.
It
is
a
sombre
story
of
self-respect,
honor
and
decency
being
pawned
to,
the
Nazis
for
the
price
of
a
soft
bed
in
a
luxury
hotel.
It
is
I
tlie
record
of
P.
G.
Wodehouse,.
ending
40
years
of
money-making
fun
with
the
worst
joke
he
ever
made
in
his
life
"Mr.
Wodehouse,
you
said
the
other
day
that
you
were
quite
unable
to
work
up
any
kind
of
belligerent
feeling
uuoui
cms
war
r
do
you
Know
Duiwich,
Mr.'
Wodehouse?
It
is
the
suburb
of
London
where
you
went
to
school
.
.
.
After
a
bombing
near
me,
under
50
tons
of
rubble,
lay
human
beings
.
.
.
You
should
have
been
there,
Mr.
Wodehouse,
you
with
your
impartiality,
your
reasonableness,
and
perhaps
even
one
of
your
famous
little
jokes."
It
was
natural
that
Connor's
all-out
acid
throwing,
in
contract
with
the
BBC's
customary
drawing-room
argument,
brought
forth
protests
and
commendation.
But
to
those
who
utterly
disagreed
with
him,
Connor
who
plays
a
mouthorgan
for
inspirational
aid
let
fly
with
this
in
his
Daily
Mirror
column:
"I
have
never
been
so
pleased
over
anything
in
my
life
.
.
.
The
BBC
is
anathema
to
me
.
.
.
There
are
Americans
who
still
think
English
people
are
Bertie
Woosters
calling
each
other
'Milord'
and
I
thought
the
Wodehouse
broadcasts
would
be
very
helpful
to
peonle
like
Burton
Wheeler."
And
those
who
know
their
Berlin
will
understand
that
despite
dangerfrom
Royal
Air
Force
raids,
life
at
the
once
internationally-popular
Hotel
Adlon,.
where
Wodehouse
is
housed,
is
vastly
different
from
rotting
in
the
hells
of

At

was

What
Is

'
as
the
National
Council
of
Y.M.'CA.'s
of
Canada
War
Services
Committee
was
promptly
formed
with
Major
J.
W.
Beaton
as
senior
secretary.
This
committee
has
the
ideals
and
guidance
of
the
Y.M.C.A.,
its
books
are
audited
by
both
the
Y.M.C.A.
and
the
Dominion
government
and
it
derives
its
income
along
with
the
Salvation
Army,
Canadian
Legion,
Knights
of
Columbus,
Y.W.C.A.
and
the
I.O.D.E.
from
the
United
Services
Drive.
The

proper
does
not
get
any

of
these
funds
but
donates
its
services
in
cities
where
they
are

further
the
work
of'
the
YM.C.A.

Services.
All
capi-
'

expenditures
of
the
War
Services
Committee
must
first
be
passed
on
by
the
Dominion
government.
According
to
our
agreement
with
the
Dominion
government
the
"huts"
we
open
with
funds
from
this
drive
are
for
the
use
and
comfort
of
the
men
of
the

and
their
families.
