London, 26 March 1943. 1 full page, 4to, on official Prime Minister stationery with oval arms of England. THE PRIME MINISTER KEEPS HIS FULL FOCUS ON THE BUSINESS OF WAR: "I understand that in order to receive the Freedom of the City it is not essential to be a member of one of the Guilds and I feel that it would be better to maintain my decision to postpone consideration of such invitations until after the war. In present circumstances I should be unable to interest myself as I should like to do in the activities of any such body of which I was a member and I have therefore felt compelled to decline other similar invitations."
