Description
Summary:1940-02-22 C02-0019-001 22nd February, 1940. Public Meetings Branch. Your ref: HP/274/60. MBC/HAR. F.C. Sharpley, Esq., Ministry of Information, Senate House, London University Building, MALET STREET, W.C.1. Sir, re Mr. George Jeger. 79, New North Road, N.1. I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 14th inst. I have pleasure in acting as a referee for Mr. George Jeger. I have known him for some years, and he has done work for me as Secretary of an organisation of which I was Chairman. In answer to your particular enquiry, and for your special purpose, I would certainly say that he would be a clear and concise and convincing speaker to most audiences. I have never heard him address an audience of aristocrats in a drawingroom, and therefore I do not know whether he would be convincing to them, because, as you know and I know from experience, they are a rather difficult type of audience requiring a special technique and approach. But for the ordinary democratic audience, such as is commonly met with in this country, I would think from his knowledge, his experience and his ability, Mr. Jeger would certainly fit all your requirements and needs. I cannot imagine why in such a new Government Ministry a more appropriate job cannot be found for him, having regard to his special and peculiar qualifications, but, of course, as you have asked me a particular question in your reference I am confining myself to a particular favourable reply. I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, 292C/946/2/19(i)
