SOME LABOUR MEN DECLARE LETTER IS STILL IN AIR.
MR IM THURN REFUSES TO DISCLOSE NAME OF HIS INFORMANT. By Telegraph.—Tress Assn.—Copyright. (Received March 21, 11 a.m.) LONDON, March 20. Some of the Labour members still protest that Mr Im Thurn’s disclosure left the Zinovieff letter in the air, and ask who gave it to Mr Im Thurn. Mr Im Thurn, when interviewed, said that there were the strongest reasons for not disclosing the name. “Is it feasible that a man in my position would act as I did unless absolutely sure of my ground?” he asked. “If it was unauthentic it would be an extraordinary coincidence that I should receive one copy and the Foreign Office another two days later. I think in the best interests of everybody the matter should be dropped and buried.”—Aust. and N.Z. United Service.
