I am trying to feel my way through the most difficult problem, the most difficult situation that a responsible Government can have to face.
What I expect is a healthful, slow fermentation in many minds, working towards the final product.
Fitness is henceforth to be the criterion of eligibility.
What I wish to insist upon is, not that that system was good, but that the statesman who undertook to overthrow it, should have had something to put in its place.
