cussions "and bringing them to an
effective conclusion"
Mr.. Churchill declared that the
present stage of war is dour and
hard and the fighting must be ex-
pected on all fronts to increase in
scale and intensity"
I'VE believe we are in the last lap"
he asserted, but this is race in
which the failure to exert the fullest
effort to the end may protract that
end"
He bluntly told Commons that
Hitler is pinning his hopes for VIM
ming the war on these two factors:
That by lengthening the struggle
he may wear down our resolution
and that division may arise between
the three great powers"
Close Relations With Soviet.
He reported that never were Brit
aims relations with Russia more
close, intimate and cordial than at
the present time" and that never
had the two nations been able to
discuss such most delicate and po-
| tentially veXatious topics" with such
| frankness as was reached at Mos
COW.
Where we could not agree" said
Mr.. Churchill, acknowledging for
the first time publicly that there
were differences still outstanding,
I'VE understood the grounds for
each others disagreement and each
others points of view"
But he maintained that lover an
astonishingly wide area" Britain
and Russia found themselves lin
full agreement"
Mr. Churchill said Russia and
Britain had reached "a very good
working agreement about Greece
Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia and
| Hungary.
That agreement, he said. was de-
/ signed with the double objective of
concentrating their efforts against
the common foe and providing SO
far as possible for a peaceful settle
ment after the war is over"
Shifting to the recognition this
week of Gen Charles de Gaulles
provisional French government, Mr.
Churchill said it could be regarded
"as symbol of Frances emergence
from four dark years of terrible and
woeful experience"
And, he said, it can be regarded
as "heralding period in which she
will resume her rightful and his
toric role on the world stage"
He turned then to the problems of
Greece, saying that when the coun-
try returned to normal conditions
of tranquility the Greek peo-
pie shall make in perfect freedom
their decision as to the form of gov
ernment under which they desire to
| live"
Eden Now in Athens.
In the meantime, he said, Britain
is doing her best to stabilize Greek
currency Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden now is in Athens con-
sulting with the Greek government
on the problem, he added,
To direct question as to whether
Britain still wished to defer until
victory decision on Poland's east
ern border, Mr.. Churchill said he
hoped an agreement would be
reached between the parties them
selves"
That" he said. would bring the
whole matter to the peace confer
ence in form most helpful and
favorable to all concerned and also
would tide us over the difficult and
potentially tragic period through
which we are passing"

the forces that are crowding in upon
them and will crush the life out OF
their resistance"
Role of Three Powers.
While he said recognition of the
French provisional government her
aided return of France to "her right
full and historic role on the world
stage" Mr.. Churchill declared that
the future of the world in the next
few years depends on united action
by the United States, Russia and
Britain.
"Other countries" he said, will
be associated, but the future de-
pends on the union of the three
most powerful Allies. If that fails
all fails; if that succeeds a broad
future for all nations may be
assured"
In acknowledging that a solution
had not been reached in the long
dispute between Russia and Poland.
Mr., Churchill said, "It is certainly
not for want of trying" adding: Il
am quite sure, however, that we have
got great deal nearer to it."
But, he said, Britain, Russia and
the United States ,"are all firmly
agreed on the recreation of strong,
free, Independent. sovereign Poland,
loyal to the Allies and friendly to
her great neighbor and liberator,
Russia"

ETERNAL PUNISHMENT

An ardent golfer died, and as he
had not led a very good life he went
to "the other place." Here, to his
surprise, he found beautiful golf
course-delightful fairways, perfect
greens, clubs ready to hand and
even a caddie. He thought that this
was too good to be true, and picked
up a club. Then he looked for ball.
Finding none, he asked the caddie.
"Ah," replied the caddie, ''there
isn't one. That's where the catch
comes in!"

He don't go much for micrOphOnes-
He amt the type to spout;
He sometimes talks in undertOnes
And knows what he's about.
He amt no man for tossin' hats
He shuns the blazin' light;
He's got but one ambition: that's
To get the job done right!
He don't go yellin' for the press
To keep him in the news,
In fact it fills him with distress
When publishers so choose;
He never rushes into print
He takes no public pulse";
To ballyho0 boys he's the flint 80.
He's got one aim: RESULTS!
He don't pop off most every day
With notions far from ripe;
No critics drive his pOise away i. :
He amt no newsreel type!
While shouting is the gen'ral rule
And 0rat0ry's loose.
He does turn at keeping cool
And knows one word: PRODUCE!
When Washington is in a mess
And rows bust out anew
II don't annoy him much, guess,
If he amt yellin', too;
He hasn't got an ak to grind
At no man is he sore -.

And that's to WIN A WAR!
