I tackled hlra after dinner in a hotel ho-tel lounge as he sipped his coffee and puffed on a huge cigar. He stared at me when I proffered my request, then he blew a cloud of smoke and said: " 'I never gave an interview in my life, and I never intend to.' "That seemed decisive enough. I felt myself getting red, and I stammered, stam-mered, as I preparrxl to go: " 'Well, then, Lord Kitchener, will you at least give me your autograph? It would be worth having.' "He blew another cloud of smoke. Then be answered: " 'You'd better go off and make ;our own autograph worth having.'"
