The article quotes Mrs Patrick Campbell doubting critics’ view of Shaw as unserious and notes a Vienna letter by Shaw shared in German papers. In it he argues the war is imperialistic, defends his stance, and jokes about theatre support and national morale amid turmoil. He mocks realpolitik and contemplates Churchillian ally tones and future productions.
