The author’s lung congestion followed an attack of influenza which occurred last Tuesday.
Dr. Georges Rozanoff said earlier that Mr. Maugham’s condition improved a little yesterday after he came out of a coma, but that it was giving some anxiety today.
“His heart is holding up well but the condition of his lungs has become aggravated, hence the precaution to take him to the hospital.”
MR. STEWART ARRIVES IN AMERICA Report on talks with Mr. Gromyko Meeting with President
From Our Own Correspondent
Washington, March 21
Mr. Michael Stewart, the Foreign Secretary, who arrived in New York today, is due here later to report on his recent talks with Mr. Gromyko, Soviet Foreign Minister, and to coordinate Anglo-American policies in a number of potential crisis areas. Perhaps most important of all, he comes to establish his own identity in a city where he is virtually unknown.
Amid all the Voskhods, Gemini and Vietnamese air raids, not to mention the replay of the Civil War in Alabama, the public is unlikely to be very attentive, but the State Department is in a more contemplative mood and will listen well.
It is less likely to be responsive to any discreet probings by Mr. Stewart about the future course of American policy in South Vietnam. President Johnson, whom Mr. Stewart is also expected to see, is the only source for such pronouncements and the evidence is that he prefers to talk about present policy. This, he repeated at a news conference at his Texas ranch yesterday, is a policy of taking whatever military action is considered necessary to repel aggression from the north.
WORLD’S FAREWELL TO CHURCHILL Quiet burial after solemn ritual of a State Funeral
The body of Sir Winston Churchill was buried yesterday afternoon in the churchyard at Bladon, Oxfordshire.
After the State funeral, with all the public ritual of Britain paraded to attend his body in and out of the City of London, with the Queen at the funeral service, he was buried in a quiet and country ceremony.
Village boys carried the cross and candles that met the coffin at the lych-gate and the vicar read the burial service, which was attended by the family and close friends.
The church, a bare, Gothicised hall, casts its shadow over the plot where Churchill’s father and mother lie. His grave was dug in the last empty space at the head of theirs, alongside the path. The headstones here are plain and unassertive. There is no room for magnificence.
The graveyard stands on a small hill, at the edge of a village street. Churchill chose it for himself and it lies within sight of his birthplace.
After nearly a third of a million people had queued in the cold beside the Thames, and walked in silence past the catafalque in Westminster Hall, the body was taken to St Paul’s Cathedral. At 9.35 a.m. eight Grenadier Guardsmen emerged, struggling a little under the weight of the great coffin made out of oak grown on the Blenheim estate. Big Ben struck 9.45 as the procession started off, and for the rest of the day stayed silent.
Seven thousand troops were on parade, lining the route or in the procession. The cumbrous gun-carriage that had carried Queen Victoria’s
Lo pulma kongestyon del autor folgir un influenso-atak ki oxir pastud.

“La kor rezistar ben mo lo stando de la pulmos gravir, unde lo prekauto de le porti ospitalve.”

FRUITFUL OR STERILE POLITICS?
This week’s business in the Commons opens with debates on consecutive days on the two subjects which, most observers found, bulked largest in the minds of urban voters during last autumn’s general election, housing and immigration. Yet paradoxically, respected voices are raised in the demand that these highly political issues be “taken out of politics”. If this means that a truce should be called to party disagreement over housing and immigration, and that those responsible for policy or concerned with the formation of opinion should concentrate instead on certain principles and their applications on which all well-informed, well-disposed people are supposed to be able to agree, then the demand must be thought to betray some misunderstanding about the nature of democratic politics and of the subjects under discussion.
