Gedye Guesses

George Eric Rowe Gedye lost his job as Central European correspondent for the London Daily Telegraph last February by criticizing Neville Chamberlain in his book, Betrayal in Central Europe. Last March he lost his berth with the New York Times by being booted out of Prague by the Gestapo. Last week unlucky Correspondent Gedye (pronounced Geddy), a brisk, bright-eyed Englishman, paying his first visit to Manhattan, was offered his choice of two new posts. The Times would send him to Moscow or to Mexico City, its vacancy in Rome having been filled last month by Spanish War Correspondent Herbert L. Matthews. Although Hitler has caught up with him in his last two posts, Correspondent Gedye, feeling sure the next major crisis would come in Western Europe, probably over Gibraltar, sailed gaily for Russia at week's end.
