Papers of Charles Hamblett, [1942], relating to the pamphlet Call Wind to Witness: Poems by John Bayliss, Charles Hamblett, Alun Lewis and Emanuel Litvinoff (London, [1942]), edited by Hamblett, comprising a letter, 26 August 1942 (f. 18), and a note, [?September 1942] (f. 19), from Alun Lewis to Hamblett, concerning the choice of his poems for the volume, at a time when Lewis was on embarkation leave; and three letters, [1942], from Derek Sandford to Hamblett, concerning his prefatory note to the volume (ff. 20-22, 27-28), together with two manuscript drafts of the note, entitled 'Introduction: Notes in approach' (ff. 23-26) and 'Introduction: Notes in approach to four poets' (ff. 29-34). The recipient's name has been blacked out in each of the letters as well as in the first version of the introduction (f. 24).

Typescript notes, [?March 1941], by Spr Alun Lewis for three lectures on World Affairs, comprising Lecture I, 'Causes of the Present War' (ff. 1-6), Lecture II (original title 'How trade affects the problems of war and peace' crossed through) (ff. 7-11) and Lecture III (ff. 12-17). The lectures were given while Lewis was assigned to his Brigade's Education Office, and concerned the geopolitical background to the Second World War, the weaponisation of trade and the weaknesses of the League of Nations.
The first lecture appears to be the one infamously interrupted by Lewis's Colonel, accusing him of telling lies (see NLW, Alun Lewis Papers MS 20, ff. 56-58 and John Pikoulis, Alun Lewis: A Life (Bridgend, 1984), pp. 130-131), as suggested by a comment at the start of the second lecture that 'we finished, rather abruptly, last week' (f. 7). The second and third lectures, in particular, contain corrections, deletions and insertions in ink and pencil.
