Viscount Hall's successor at the Colonial Office, Arthur Creech Jones also has not been threatened. Nor has Prime Minister Attlee received any menacing letters or telephone calls, it was stated. It was understood that the usual sec- urity at 10 Downing Street, Mr. At- tlee's official residence, had been deemed sufficient, and that no add- ed precautions were taken.
