He welit to Britam in December, i939, with the secsnd contingent of Canadian troops on his appoint- ment as acting London Superinten- dent and War Correspondent. He was named to succeed Edwin S Johnson as London Superintendent last Nov. 1.

Robertson, at 35 a brilliant writ- er and resourceful, energetic exec- utive after 22 years in the CPEs service, ably directed the eight- man CP London staff during months of Nazi bombing which shook the CP office building last Sept. 23 and destroyed it by fire on Dec. 29. The service under his direction was scarcely interrupted and the staff operated from a new Fleet Btree: - office within a few hours.

Toured French Areal

He flew to France with the late Hon. Norman Rogers, then Canad- ian Defence Minlster~ in the spring of 1940 and accompanied the mun- ister on a tour of the front line Later he spent several weeks re- portin the activities of the int Cannd an Division and wrote oi the first mass bombing raids on Britain last July from "Hell's Oor- ner" on the cliffs of Dover.

on his arrival in Canada in March. Robertson reported a sub- marine attack on tile convoy in which he travelled sank at least four and perhaps six ships, one of them a few hundred yards from nis vessel. l-le told of 19 hours 0i tense waiting between two submarine at- tacks-one at 5 am. and the oth- er at midnight-and the remark- able coolness of his fellow passen-

gers. Urged More Help

Later he urged in a radiohroed- cast that Canada and the United States do more to help Britain sweep the seas of the growing aub- marine menace and wrote of me German attempt at economic stran-

ulatlon of Britain throuflh 110mb- ng and torpedoinga as the gravest menace facing Bri in.

On his furlough Robertson visit- ed his wife and two sisters, Mrs. '1‘, Shea and Mrs. James 0'i\arrell. in Ottawa. conferred with OP exec- utives in Toronto and spent a short time in the Laurentians with Mrs. Robertson. Fifteen months in war-torn London had made no change in the happy, vital person-l ality that won him hundreds of; friends. ‘more was a little morei white in the prematurely grey hair hub; he was eager to return to his jo .

After graduating to the editorial staff and handling reporting and editing assignments in Ottawa, Winnipeg, Montreal and New York. Robertion was appointed to the ‘important night desk in Toronto in 1931. lie was transferred to New York in 1932 and was made super- intendent there in 1937, his irons- fer to London coming two and a half years later.

During his years of work in Cari- ada and the Ur-lted States Robert- son covered countless stories, in- cluding the United States tour of the King and Queen in 1939. But he gained particular satisfaction from his work on a murder case in Ottawa in 1931 when he was instru- mental ln catching the slayer of his boyhood chum Bert Marshall

In London his ability to go through long hours of nerve shat- tering work under difficult condi- tions and to make friends of high officials as easily as he did private soldiers made him invaluable to Canadian Press.
