Odious expression


Prime Minister to Minister of Food. 21 Mar 1941.

I hope the term "Communal Feeding Centres" is not going to be adopted. It is an odious expression, suggestive of Communism and the workhouse. I suggest you call them "Brititish Restaurants". Everybody associates the word "restaurant" with good meal, and they may as well have the name if they cannot get anything else.

W. C. The Grand Alliance.
