Description	There is evidence of a breakdown in the relationship bewteen Mr Sraw and Major Pole, and Major Pole eventually decided not to stand as a candidate. A copy of the outcome of a later (1933) investigation into this is included in the bundle. Subsequent letters suggest difficulties between Mr Straw, and representatives of the National Headquarters and also with Mr Drinkwater, the National Organiser for the Midlands area.
