Sinclair, who voiced his warning
in a speech at Glasgow, declared the
government must decide on vigcr-
u measures and determined action
in Norway, or remaining neutrals
would rush to the German band.
wagon.
Strikes At 'Prophets"
He struck sharply at false prop.
cts tellin gus Hitler has missed tn"
bus'-a phrase which Prime Minis
ter Chamberlain used recently in
describing Adolf Hitler's strategy.
"That reminds me of the prophecy
that Munich meant peace in our
time" said Sir Archibald, in an
other reference to Chamberlain.
ALTHOUGH we shall muddle
through to victory in the long run,
we shall pay for the feebleness of
u political direction by prolonga-
ton of he war;" he said.
There is nothing in the rules of
war against a country moving
skillfully and striking without
warning, and the British public
would not complain if the British
government moved and struck the
Germans"
Sir Archibald said "the country
will be entitled to know whether
the troops sent to undertake this
hazardous enterprise were highly
trained regular troops with expe-
rienced officers and stats, and
whether they were adequately
equipped.
IF the government muddled in
this Norwegian campaign it will
be for parliament to act objective
ly, fearlessly and resolutely as the
grand inquest of the nation"
Basis of Denunciation
The Daily Express, which said
the withdrawal from central Nor
way would not be so great a dis
aster as the retreat from Mons in
the last war;" provided the basis
for Sir Archihald's denunciation.
The Times of London had this
to say: "Our soldiers in Norway
are faced with an uphill task"
Sinclair said of the Norwegian
campaign that some risks had to
be taken in order to move swiftly,
but he asked whether the British
troops had mountain guns or a full
supply of Bren guns and trench
mortars.
why was the British counter
stroke to the German attack SO
slow in coming?" he demanded.
The liberal chieftain then refer
red to Churchill's statement that
before the German invasion had
been received of large numbers of
German transports being assem-
bled in the Baltic.
Can it be true" Sir Archibald
went on, that in the light of that
information and at that time the
prime minister was solemnly
warning Norway and Sweden about
imminent and approaching danger
but without disclosing to the Nor
wegians the facts on which the
warning was based-he himself
was ordering dispersal of the strik-
ing force which the government
had assembled to go to Finland. =.

Instructions went out to Army

Maj. Gen. Leslie J. McNair, gen.

them.

McNair said. "Confinement espe-

blasting sounds of war. They speci-
fled that when the stage of training
in units is reached, blank ammuni-
tion should be used frequently to
approximate actual battle sounds.
Numerous firing tests with live am
munition also will be given.
Veteran officers suggested it was
important that recruits become &C
customed to battlefield tumult to
minimize the peril of panic and con-
fusion when troops are first under
fire in wartime.
In his directive, Gen. McNair ad-
vised that the Army be prompt to

who demonstrate qualities of leader

Inadequate leadership must be
