Published Winnie or free press company limited. 300 Carlota Street Winnipeg Manitoba. Victor so Futon. ,1 general registered at the general Post office London end. Tor transmission through the Post in the United kingdom at the newspaper rate of postage. Winnipeg wednesday january 17, 1940 the mystery remains the mystery of or. Hore Belisha s dismissal from the itis Wai office has been not dispersed but deepened by the Oce Edings in the 1 House of commons yesterday. The sex Nister assured his Courti y that everything was really quite right. Or. Chamberlain added similar assurances and hinted it further developments were to be expected. Underlying the Date was the veiled suggestion that it was bad form to inquire closely into anything even though that thing by its very Ture. Was a political upheaval of the first magnitude. We All be told doubt that in War time it is unpatriotic to Ess matters too far. The net result will be of course far from Good. A demo act can maintain its Unity Only if it is kept fully informed a 1s that Means enabled to reach intelligent judgments. Average onlooker upon the Hore Belisha Case knows Noth e today save that a minister of proven ability and vigor has in replaced in the British War Cabinet by a political Nonen he will therefore pursue his own surmises As to the real sons for the change and these Are unlikely to bring him any i faction. He will reason for instance that the decoration generals Cort and Ironsides by army timed As it As on the Morrow of the War minister s dismissal reflects Ench satisfaction with the change and the Solidarity of the High Momand of the Anglo French forces. F i in View of the Well known fact that have been Ging the British to expand their forces on the Western front will remember that a British minister just after or. Hore Elsilia s ejection broadcast to France that the present . S but a Vanguard of the army to follow. He will surmise that r. Hore Belisha probably opposed this move and was Over generals and politicians alike. He will too at the British generals who received the legion of Honor Ere decorated in the presence of or. Winston Churchill and will deduce from that that or. Churchill that potent figure in e War Cabinet heartily approved of the War office he .11 couple this with the hints that a unified defence ministry to be formed and he will come to the conclusion that or. Churchill s influence is increasing and that or. Oliver Stanley s Nure of an important Post will be Short lived. Having come so far our Amateur detective will then proceed other. Well aware of the fact that the ground grows steadily Ore precarious under his feet. He May think that the influx ice of the generals will be to mass troops on the Western front and try to crash through the Westwall. But he will at once offset is by his recollection of or. Churchill s attempts during the St War to divert the War to other fronts and he will remember o. That or. Churchill s history of the War judg Enthat the War of attrition in France and Flanders 1914-1918, As a mistake. He will think it hardly possible that or. Churchill s imaginative Genius has been Stul tidied or destroyed the years. With this in his mind he will try another course of reason g. He will recall not Only or. Churchill s imagination but his Gor and his Clear sighted perception of the grim and terrible so involve ten the overthrow of nazism a perception he arrived years before a similar conclusion was reached by any of his resent colleagues. He May therefore conclude that or. Lurch ill s suggestion has been not Only to give increased Mili by and moral Aid to , but to expand immediately the Tal British Effort in order to bring Forward As rapidly As pos ble troops and supplies sufficient in Quantity not Only to meet in larger demands of the Western front but also to equip the ices that May in the near future be needed in other theatres War. It is conceivable that or. Hore Belisha under the influence his Friend or. Liddell Hart believed an expansion f the British Effort will bring dangers in its train. If that is then his removal opens the Way to a policy of greater Sacri a greater Cost larger commitments and larger risks than has t Nero been followed and it is at once apparent that if Britain following this Road her allies including Canada will follow too. The degree of speculation involved in this tortuous process f reasoning is of course so great that its possible conclusion Lay be wholly false. But it would be a mistake to suppose that he orbit of this War has yet been limited. still in process f expansion and the plans now being made take into account to possible development during the months now rapidly approaching when Large scale military operations become possible with the better weather or Spring and summer. Wifi should be prepared for much from which we have hitherto been spared. Above suggests commendable constructive work even if it is Only partial solution problem. It is suggested that some Hesi Tate to go off Relief because of the difficulty of getting on again and that it might be Wise to it less difficult so As to encourage people to strike out themselves. It is too that something might be done to induce those on Relief who make rather substantial to make a greater a Fiort to become self supporting. It Wil Surprise Many people that those Relief earned last year of which they were allowed to keep while went toward pay ing for their Relief. Since it is better that they should not be wholly Idle they Are allowed to keep some of their monthly earnings of those some work averaged or a year. V i greater Success in seen Riig the co operation of could be attained it is the blight if. The personnel available for this work. The Experiment that was made in two employees from the Relief department to the employment Bureau to watch for opportunities have proved the report it is possible by and by securing the the employers to find j mate em-4 ploy ment than we have done in the past for those on last year women and married women with children applied for Relief but 500 of these is the barrage to come what germans think Swald Garrison Villard famous .

That no fewer than czechs have been arrested and imprisoned in Germany since Hitler violated the sovereignty of the Republic the observer whom i saw in me that the germans possible taking Over. I am sure that he is Correct for it is perfectly the minute one gets there that the German rulers Are relying upon the. Olds stupid technique of Force and Vio lence., to hold their subjects Down. They boast they have Learned Many lessons afro m the world War Sut they have Learned nothing from Belgium which they Riever conquered but by. Bitterness and Hitler s place still secure but in Germany.
