voiced criticism Of the plan announced
In parliament few days ago by Wal

only criticisms heard were that the
governmental control had been over
long delayed and the preliminary
plans. rs announced, were insufii-
ciently sweeping or drastic.
It Is known. however, that Runci-
mans announcement was purely pre-
lininary and that he did not reveal
