British Labor Party
To Back Churchill
Till War Is Won
BY the Associated Press,


LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE British
Labor party voted today to stay in
Prime Minister Churchills coalition
government until victory in Europe
but served notice it would fight the
next general election independ-
emily.
Labor is Britains strongest mi
nority faction and its decision as
sures continuance of the coalition.
After victory, the party was told. it
should set out to build a Socialist
British commonwealth.
Opening the party's annual con-
ference amid tension created by
division over Britain's policy in
Greece, Prof Harold Laski, eco
nomics writer, asserted:
1--WE are not beating Germany. we
are not going on to the defeat of
Japan, either to restore traditional
Britain, or to open the way to that
monopoly-capitalism which requires,
not Democracy, but Fascism as its
inherent institutional principle"
Few of us can doubt that it is
the duty OF the Labor Party to sup
port Mr.. Churchill until victory
in Europe is both overwhelming and
complete" said Prof. Laski. But
we must then seek from the people
of Britain decisive and independent
electoral authority to enter in the
fullest way we can upon the great
task of building the socialist COM
monWealth.'
Warning that an 'unplanned
world" would lead to another war
within generation, Prof. Laski
said "only a planned world can
hope to be a free world for the
common man"
I'VE need to recognize, in the
fullest possible way" he added,
that if we can plan for victory in
war we can, not less certainly, plan
for the life of reason and plenty
in peace"

Montana School Boards Association,
Montana Congress of Parent Teach
CT hSSOciaLlOn, county Superlnten-
dents, school administrators and the
M. E. A. The purpose of the COM
mittee is to safeguard school legis-
lation by preventing overlapping of
measures, conflict and confusion
among groups working in the in
terest Of education in Montana It
is hoped that school support will
come from the state in greater
measure and less from the local
district. Montana public school
suffered loss Of 1885, 937 in in
come in the past year. according to
Mr.. Culver who tells us this was
due to the fact that school funds are
all put into the general fund Of
the state and monies to this amount
were used for other purposes than
that Of schools. He further stated,
The amount appropriated by the
state general fund is small com
pared to the total cost to the pub
lie. We advocate larger share of
state support for public schools of
Montana to equalize educational op-
portunities and the tax base"
