Winston Churchill lives and fights In
the present but he remains a Wing
aristocrat of the 18th century" in the
opinion of Harold j. Laski, professor Of
political science at the University Of
London In the Nation, Laski sees the
Prime Minister as lone of the great
anachronisms of our time"
Churchill, the professor contends,
never understood the meaning Of the
Russian revolution. 49,. He was so tragi-
cally wrong in the Spanish civil war.
-. He wholly misconceived the nature
OF italian Fascism. i. He has no init
mate grasp Of what is happening in
India. :. j.. And the immense social forces
which have gone to make this war are
outside his consciousness"
Yet, Laski comedies, "he brought
unity OF heart to the nation, a deter
nination to die rather than to sur
render, which made Nazi victory un-
thinkable" and while his weaknesses
are monumental, no honorable opponent
can fail to recognize that his virtues are
monumental, too"

International Controls

AS means Of assuring postwar sta

at Harvard and adviser to the Federal
Reserve Board, writing in the January
Foreign Affairs, proposes an interna-
tlonal development and investment
bank and an international commodity
corporation. as we'll as the projected
international stabilization fund.
The international bank would provide
funds for development of projects and
for capital outlays necessary to deyelop
the agriculture and industry of the
economically backward areas"
The commodity corporation would
BUY, store and sell international raw
materials and act as a buffer in the raw
materials market, Hansen explains, and

Not a Sword, but Peace.

President Camacho of Mexico. In an
exclusive interview with Leigh White,
reported in the Christmas issue of the
Saturday Evening Post, proved himself

1t eXpedlent to issue few warnings
Honest foreign capital which desires
to participate in our endeavors and is
willing to eschew all plans of extortion
or imperialism, will be received with
sympathetic understanding. and, so long
as it respects our laws it will enjoy the
guarantees which they provide" said
Mexico's President.
In other words, Mexico, according to
White, is "all for the good neighbor
policy so long as it promotes solidarity,
but Will be all against it if it becomes
an instrument of imperialism"
The allegations of Senator Hugh A.
Butler of Nebraska that the Govern
ment is wasting $4,000 100000 to back
up the good-neighbcr policy draws an
other reply in the New Republic. Hubert

Rico and asks what that has to do with
Latin America; likewise s298,00O 900 for
maintenance of the Panama Canal

If the figures which can be checked
fare so badly, what about the unitemizeo
billions which the Senator would have

Herring reminds that much has been
spent below the border on military in

Next step in the long-drawn- out
discussion between the District Rec

Leofder's contract. The concession
aire, at the time Of award Of his
present flve-year contract, due to
expire December 81, was given a
five-year renewal option. Presum-
ably this option nullifies the usual
procedure Of calling for bids, al
though the Interior Department has
made no move toward letting out
the new contract.
