Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 1, No. 4 March 30, 1938

Remedy?

Remedy?

But by way of solution Mr. Aldington can offer no more than a personal re-awakening,.

"Against destructive revolution, the revolution or man himself. Against the power of explosive and poison, the power of thought and supple reason. Against their death-worship, our life-worship."

Most certainly the need for Mr, Aldington's "living impulse"—the accepting of life in the way Lawrence accepted it—in the relations or men and women is frighteningly urgent, But can this "revolution of man himself' occur irrespective of economic standing? This is a leading question of which Mr. Aldington always gives a non-committal answer. All Mr. Aldington's people seem to get their groceries and milk-tokens without much trouble; either they have a private income like Anthony Clarendon or they have wealthy friends like Etta Morrison.
