Transcript

King’s College | Cambridge
Feb 10

Dear Lawrence,

I’m afraid I don’t know of anything about subsidies to railways in a systematic form. There might be bits about it in the ordinary railway books, and there’s a book about cheap fares in Belgium, Mahaim’s Les abonnements d’ouvriers pour les lignes de chemin de fer (Misch & Thron, Brussels) {1}: also in Rowntree’s Life and Labour in Belgium {2} and other such names {3}. But I can’t think of anything about England

Yours
A C Pigou

—————

Pigou’s handwriting is indistinct. Someone—perhaps Pethick-Lawrence himself—has attempted a transcription of it in pencil, interlined below the corresponding text, but the transcription appears to be wrong in some cases, and there are, forgivably, some gaps. The year is not indicated, but the letter was clearly written at about the same time as 2/230.

{1} Ernest Mahaim, Les Abonnements d’ouvriers sur les lignes de chemins de fer Belges et leurs effets sociaux (1910).

{2} R. S. Rowntree, Land and Labour: Lessons from Belgium (1911).

{3} ‘and other such names’: reading uncertain.
