Editorial comments:

Undated; listed 14 May because it was circulated that day to E(LF) with a covering paper by Patrick Jenkin, also on this file. MT did not annotate this copy, so it is likely the one she read does not survive. Read other documents selected from this file. The full file from which this item is taken can be seen here.
