Sowerbutt's Informant


“Much on the street, Jack?” Sowerbutt asked his tailor.
“Very little. The rich scurry for the remote countryside, others with more self-respect are doing war work. Some of the Zionists are angry about the new policies in Palestine, but they hate the Nazis more. A few of the young ones - Haganah, they call themselves - want to smuggle illegals into Palestine, save the persecuted families from Europe. Give them a fresh start. Good people, hearts in the right place.”
“Good man, Jack,” Sowerbutt smiled, rising to leave. “I’ll keep my eyes open for more cloth for you.”
“Ay-yay-yay, Mr Sorbay. You will get a poor, hard-working man into trouble.”
