Concerning Charles telling Gertrude that the Abyssinian Government have promised peace to Italy, although he records his doubts as to their sincerity. Speculates on the post-war world, advancing his own belief that the involvement of their armed forces would encourage British colonies (particularly India) to seek self-government. Notes that he and his wife, Lilian (1878-1960), plan to open and run a field hospital in France, to be run by Lilian.
