Woman Journalist

INTERNATIONAL EXPERT One of the most famous and enterprising journalists of our time is Miss Muriel Currey (states an overseas writer). Bhe was the only English woman to accompany the Italian forces during the invasion of Abyssinia, and i now, after a brief visit to Rome, she is returning i;o that country for two or three months in order to see for herself the changes which have taken ' place since the conquest. On her way she hopes to compare notes with Major Yeats-Brown, who is engaged in writing a book on the present situation in Europe as he sees it. Miss Currey has international politics at her finger tips, and she also possesses an acquaintance with their background, which is as rare as it is valuable. When in London she is to be found at most meetings oi: the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and there are few discussions on internatioal matters to which she cannot make constructive contribution. Miss Currey is a delightful woman, gracious and charming, and,, what is mere, she s onie :; of ,tho most generous of experts, and is always willing to place her knowledge at the disposal of others.
