Yes, but the Suez Canal was very great and splendid undertaking. It gave us our director to India. It had imperial value. It was necessary that we should have control. This Argentine scheme is a commonplace stock exchange swindle. Believe me, Mrs Cheverly, it is a swindle. Let's call things by their proper names. It makes matters simpler. We have all the information about it at the Foreign Office. In fact, I sent out a special commission to inquire into the matter privately. And they report that works have hardly begun. And this for the money already subscribed. No one seems to know what has become of it. The whole thing is a second Panama, without 1/4 of the chance of success that miserable affair ever had. I hope you have not invested in it. I'm sure you are far too clever to have done that.
