must trust me-" perhaps he would
have maintained his position, be-
cause it would not be easy to
replace him. But the opposition
and criticism would have become
stronger, and readiness to follow
his leadership would have de-
clined.
Did Not Appease Critics
Mr.. Churchill did not try to
appease his critics. He attacked
them with much asperity. Nor
can one believe that he con-
vinced them in every detail.
Many undoubtedly still believe
that they would have acted 9TH
erwise in a number of situations.
But he must have convinced
every one that the leadership of
the empire is in honest and mas
terful hands; that this leader
ship stands ready at all times
to defend its policies and answer
any questions about them; and,
since the liberties of Englishmen
are guarded so carefully even at
the climax of a war, all may be
certain that they shall control
their destinies, after the war. in
peace.
The strength of the British
system of government, and par
tlcularly the strength of the ex-
ecutive, seems to me to lie in it's
greater elasticity compared with
ours. Mr.. Churchill does not have
to worry about another term
that could permit him to finish
the work which he is in. His
test does not come every four
years. 1t comes every day.
Yet this continual test gives
him greater security and sta
bility. He is not called upon at
any point to summarize his career
from the cradle to the grave, to
answer for all past policies and
all past mistakes, or to forecast a
future period whose problems are
lnscrutable at the moment, but
repeatedly to give an account of
his stewardship as of the moment,
In vivid present time. He rests
his case on what he is accomplish
ing and where he stands.
Situation Gives Security.
1t is possible that a man who
is great in war may be less salts
factroy in another period in deal
ing with the problem of recon-
struction and peace. That always
is tested satisfactorily only by ex-
perience. This gives the people
great political security. If their
experience is unsatisfactory they
can change their leadership at
any time. 1t gives the head of
the nation great security also.
for he is not burdened with the
peoples fears that at some dis
tant time he may not be as good
as he is now.
The fact that the Prime Min
lister also can, and Is indeed COM
PEELED to, answer his critics before
responsible popular assembly
with the power to remove him or
keep him in Office puts the re-
sponsibility for his leadership
upon them.
And this creates political CO.
hesiveness, in which legislature
and executive are each, in their
way, continually and unitedly
responsible. One cannot pass the
buck to the other.

adult and Dorothy Thompson.
reasonable person, let him con-
template this speech and its cir
cumstanceS.
We are at the climax of des-
perate war. We face its bloodiest
tests. Europe writhes in its tor
ments. One tyrant, overthrown
by his own inner circle, has been
kidnapped into the arms of an
other, postponing his complete
exit from history. The country
he left is in chaos. The country
to which he escaped knows no
way to hold its people except by
ruthless police terror. Hitler,
surrounded by armed bodyguards,
is less and less visible.
But in England a man under
heavy criticism reports for two
hours before an elected assembly
which includes strong opponents
and critics of his policy and has
the power to remove him from
Office any moment by simple
vote. 1t demands an accounting
to itself, and he gives it. Un-
precedented, as far as I know in
times of war, he even explains
every detail of military strategy.
He speaks with the utmost candor,
for he has no power whatsoever
except the power to appeal to the
reason of his listeners. And this
is the essence of political freedom
as compared with arbitrary gov
ernment-that leaders are COM
PEELED to present reasons for what
they do.
Power Is That of Reason.
Now the paradox of the situa-
tion is that with no power except
reason, Mr.. Churchill was stronger
than any despot with power and
no reason. Mr.. Churchill is the
director of a tremendous instru-
ment Of power, comprising all
the men, machines and wealth
of a great empire. But the
power in and of itself is powerless.
The spark that moves it is the
will of the people, which is never
suspended for an instant, not
even in times of crisis. Mr..
Churchill has emerged as an
authentic hero, a mastery per-
sonality, who has turned defeat
into victory. But that gives him
no permanent lease on power nor
does it exempt him from giving
an account of stewardship.
Mr.. Churchills candor dis
arms all opposition. Had he
gone before parliament in auto
cratic temper and said, "The
record speaks for itself and you

and soldiers were treated as
enemies instead Of friends as
previously.
The Burmese, who used to
look affectionately toward Gen.
Chang, actually gave the Japs
information about the general
issimo's headquarters which en-
abled them to send their planes
to bomb 1t. On several occasions
Chang and his staff barely
escaped the Japanese low-fying
planes.
According to the Chinese. the
operations against Burma will be
dificult and q hostile population
can seriously affect the outcome
Of jungle warfare. 1t is recalled
in this connection that the spec
tacular success Of the Japs
against the better fighting Aus
tralians in Malaga was due to a
great extent to the support re-
ceived from the Malayan popu-
lation.
Moreover, the Chinese gen.
eralissimo is said to have pointed
out that Lord Mountbatten Is not
only a British general but also
close relative of King George.
Consequently, in spite of his lib
eral views he will be regarded
as representing imperial Britain
which is determined to maintain
its hold on its Asiatic colonies.
Has No Quarrel With British.
Gen. Chang is said to have
no quarrel with the desires of the
British government to regain the
territories which it has developed
over long period Of years. He
also Is said to believe that even
the question OF whether the Brit
ish or Chinese flag will fly over
Hong Kong is not of such an i'm
portance as to jeopardize the
promised campaign to open up
the Burma road.
But he Is believed to feel
strongly that q military expedi-
ton almost entirely British in
character is not likely to gain the
sympathy Of the natives and he
looks on their support as essen
tial to the success OF the cam
paign.
Gen. Chang had indicated In
the usual direct manner he
adopts in dealing with political
matters that the Allies would
have been much wiser had they
appointed an American air COM
mander even If the forces were
overwhelmingly British.
Some foreign observers believe
that he himself would have liked
to be. intrusted with that COM
mand although he realizes that
it would have been difficult to get
British troops to fight under the
leadership of an easterner. Fail
ing that, Gen. Chang would
have preferred for the sake of the
success of the operations to see
an American general appointed.
In some Washington quarters
1t is believed that this semicon-
cealed dissatisfaction of the
Chinese commander in chief and
President of the republic might
have unfortunate repercussions
on the outcome Of the campaign.
1t is realized, however. that it
is too late to do anything about it.
