Bombs and Votes is the title of a new Fabian pamphlet by Wayland Young. Mr. Young,who has specialised in defence questions, is a journalist and a member of the Eouse of Lords. He accuses the Prime Minister of placing Party above country by making defence an election issue, He examines various aspects of Tory defence policy, he questions the Government's claim that nuclear defence spending is under 10% of the defence budget. He does not accept this figure and goes on to show, anyway, that the percentage is bound to increase as new weapons are devised. Bombs and Votes is obtainable from the Fabian Society, 11, Dartmouth St., London S.W. 1. costing 2/3 PePe
