The Athenaeum Club - WW sends RJ 'some lucubrations on the subject of McCulloch's review...Do not be alarmed - I am not going to publish them in a hurry or probably at all'. WW does not 'care so much about abusing Peter as about setting the matter on its proper footing - they are suggested as much by talking with the Ricardites as by the Review'. WW finds 'that people have by no means made out clearly what is new and peculiar in your doctrines and they will be long in doing it except it is put somewhere in a short compass to begin with. My view was to write what might benefit the political economists at the Athenaeum'. WW has only spoken to two or three people on political economy - 'for nobody talks of anything but reform'.
