A white paper issued last night
declared that a joint staff, advo-

Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
asked Parliament members yester-
day to withhold Judgment OF the

formulated following charges in
some influential circles that a lack
OF adequate coordination among
land, sea and air forces had con-

Criticized by Newspaper.
Following issuance of the white
paper. the London News Chronicle
held that 1t was not satisfactory.
but threw useful light on the
subject.
The News Chronicles military
writer declared the document in
no way produces evidence to sat-
isfy those who believe that, though
the stats of the three services
combine in joint planning, there
Is an essential need for a single
executive authority to coordinate
at the top the operations for which
the three chiefs of staff are sepa-
rately responsible
Members OF the chiefs of STATS
committee represent the army, navy
and air force and such associated
agencies as the Foreign once and
war production staff.
The white paper said they shared
the same building. ate together, and
think and act In terms not of three
separate units assisting one another
for a common end, but of a single
fighting unit animated by the same
spirit and close conception OF
single task"
1t noted particularly that Lord
Louis Mountbatten, commander of
the Commands, attended the meet

whenever major strategical issues
or specific combined operations were
discussed.
Sir Edward Grigg Protests.
The government white paper was
unsatisfactory also TO Sir Edward
Grigg. former parliamentary under
secretary for war and an advocate
OF interservice coordination, whose
recent newspaper article helped
bring the question to a head.

Edward, then the only possible
conclusion is that the men operat-

He said he wanted one man to be

and operate between the Prime Min
lister and three staff chiefs in

PRO TECT CHILDREN
 ON BIGDAy

Christmas time being season Of joy, every precaution should be taken to prevent any untoward circumstance which might enter into it's celebration
 Too often the careless placing of lighted candles has resulted in painful burns, and even death to those participating in the Yule- tide festivities. Santa Claus has been the victim in innumerable cases.
 Tiny electric lights now are mos. often used for the Christmas tree, and that reduces the fire danger materially. If candles are to be used in the decoration-and they undoubtedly lend an effect not to be obtained by the electric lights they should be placed on the man. tel and in other secure locations where contact with their pretty blazes is net likely to be made
 Tn Christmas sports involving the slightest danger, children should be directed in their play by an elder person who is competent to effect a rescue if necessary.

TO FIX DATE
PEACE TALKS

| CHICAGO (FP) = Philip Murray
representing the CLIO, and Harry
Bates, the AFL, will meet in Wash
ington August 19 to set a time and
place for the first meeting of the
peace committees of the two organi-
cations, AFL Pres. William Green an
nounced August 13 as the AFL exec
utive council closed Today session
here.
Green however held out little hope
that the conferences will lead to or
ganic unity.
'Time," he asserted, "has increased
our difficulties. The problems are
much more difficult than they were
three years ago. Every year will in
crease and add to our difficulties"
The proposed peace negotiations,
Green said, were the subject of re-
port drawn up by the council to be
submitted to the AFL convention
opening in Toronto October 5. Other
matters in the report, he revealed, are
the changes brought about by the
war, the AFL's experiences with the
government in the last year, and the
work of the AFL leadership.
Green also reiterated that he could
not enter into any agreement with
the CIO for putting an end to juris-
dictional disputes, insisting that only
the individual internationals Of the
AFL could take such action.
