I've seen enough of these "who said its" on Cafe Hayek to know that this is either Keynes or Krugman. Since it was written in 1940, I'm going to go with Keynes.
@Nickolaus:
Agreed, that's got to be Keynes. The quote gets to the point too quickly to have been Hayek, and besides, that's too obvious; Henderson wouldn't have asked if it had been Hayek.
Keynes.
I would be surprised if Hayek spent much time talking about "Bolshevism".
galbraith?
I was also thinking Keynes.
I would take the easy answer of Keynes, too. That it was 1940 suggests that this was Great Britain to which the writer was referring.
If it wasn't Hayek, then whoever it was was channeling Hayek.
What about Mises?
