Reading Experience:

Evidence:
'Looks at cartoon first. "Oh, quite right, you know. It is these people who - I love those two. Yes". Turns to Priestley quotation, "He's come out lately, this Priestley, hasn't he? He's a bit of a radical on the lay, isn't he?" Starts to read printed matter, but gets no farther than than first paragraph. "I expect they've got to intern them, to be on the safe side. But I think they should have some sort of a tribunal, don't you."'
