Dear Sir,
After reading Professor Andrew Hacker’s account of the wealth, the
numbers, the assiduity, the perseverance and the originality of American
political scientists,’
I
was
so
impressed that
I
searched round for the appro-
priate comment. It did
not
take
long
for me
to
conclude that the best one
was the comment made by the house guest
of
a Californian stock broker,
who had had a
200
ft.
taIl
cedar tree moved from one end
of
his garden
and replanted at the other: ‘It just shows,’ said a guest, ‘what God could
do
if
he was rich.’ Yours sincerely,
S.
