cartoon was captioned Love Me

Two Labor Members
OF Churchill Cabinet
Attack Foreign Policy
BY the Associated Press.

| Dy tuc AoSOClAtcu EEcobs
BLACKPOOL, England, May 23.-
Two labor members of the ole
Churchill coalition war cabinet at.
tackled the Conservative party for.
eign policy today. with Ernest Bevir
charging that 1t sowed suspicion
in Russia.
Their remarks were regarded a.
opening Great Britain's first ma.
tional election campaign in 10 years
Mr.. Bevin, Labor minister in the
coalition government, asserted thai
the first job Of labor government
If elected, would be to wipe out the
suspicion which he said was grow.
ing in Anglo-Soviet relations.
I'VE have no bad past to liv,
down." he asserted. I'VE pledge
ourselves that we intend to place
our cards on the table face upwarc
and we pledge ourselves never II
use small states to play up against
big states.
Duty to Restore Confidence.
Il believe there Is suspicion in
the back of some peoples minds
that we will use these small states
as a springboard against the Soviet
government. or that the Soviet gov
ernment will use them against us
1t is the duty of the Labor Party tc
remove this fear and restore conf
dence."
Clement r. Attlee, deputy prime
minister in the coalition govern
ment, joined Mr.. Bevin in outlining
labor's international policy before a
national party convention. The
convention overwhelmingly adopted
resolution charging:
British government policy, now
and for the future of certain lib
Grated countries in Europe, particu-
larly Belgium, Greece, Italy ano
Poland, was more concerned with
the preservation of vested interests
than for the welfare, liberty, equal
ity of social security of these
peoples"

that the coalition be continued until
after Japan is defeated
Trade on Popularity, They Charge.
Labor party leaders contended
that the Conservatives, by forcing
the issue now, were trading on Mr.
Churchill's popularity as wal
leader in order to gain votes. They
maintained that an election in july
would provide inadequate time to
allow servicemen full representation
at the polls.
Mr.. Churchill has served notice
previously that in forming a tenn
porary government he would well
come men of ali parties or of nc
parties to run Britain's affairs
When Mr.. Churchill assumed
power in 1910. he rallied Britain to
desperate stand against Germany
One of his first addresses promised
the British nothing but blood, toll
sweat and tears
When the British Expeditionary
Force left virtually all its equip
ment and hundreds of its men on
; the shelled and bombed beaches OF
Dunkerque, Mr. Churchill promised
that the British would fight in the
streets and woods of their islands
and carry on the battle, If neces-
sary, from across the sea.
When the war broke out in Sep
tember, 1899, the major parties
agreed to avoid wartime political
dissension by truce under which
the party which held a seat in Com
mons would be permitted to fill it
without opposition in case a vacancy
occurred because of death or resig-
nation.
Britain was able to avoid war
time election because there is no
law calling for elections at specified

servative leader, by name.
Need for Mutual UNDERSTANDING.


Mr.. Attlee said the problem OF
peace could be solved only by build
ing up an international organiza-
tion." He emphasized there must
be continued cooperation and mu-
tual understanding between the
United States, Russia and Great Brit
ain"
Both he and Mr.. Bevin touched
on the Polish problem.
Some people have said the Poles
are. Fascists," Mr.. Bevin said. q

'of PolandD intimately, and no one
can tell me he was a Fascist, nor

Word that Mr.. Churchill had re-
signed reached the Labor party con-
vention hall just as the delegates
were leaving for lunch
Ellen Wilkinson, chairman of the
Labor party annual conference, de-
clared:

FOREIGN AFFAIRS:
British Ask Aid

In the U. S. to sell this country on
the feasibility of offering financial
assistance to Britain, Ambassador
Halifax and Economist Keynes de-
clared that a prosperous Britain,
getting its great exporting and i'm
porting machinery going at full
blast, would help assure the stabil-
ity so necessary for postwar peace.
Should Britain fail to secure suf-
icient aid to rebuild its industry and
obtain raw materials for processing
into finished goods, Messrs. Halifax
and Keynes pointed out, the whole
intricate system of exchange among
nations would be affected, leading
to social disturbances the world
over and another outgrowth Of isms.
Thus, in approaching the U. S.
on a basis of mutual concern,
the British came over as prac-
teal statesmen and not as beg
gars. Further, they disclaimed
any intention of seeking an easy
way out by negotiating interest
bearing loans, but rather stated
that they were opposed to any
type of debt of a burdensome
nature which, like World War 1
obligations, would have to be
eventually repudiated.
In shying from the idea Of an in
terest : bearing loan, the British left
the way open for an outright grant,
which would be strongly bucked
here, or a ~long-range ~interest-free
advance.

STRIKES:

Heading up a wave Of strikes,

ing companies partly paralyzing ra-

Though the strike ostensibly was
over wage demands, informed in

a 6areup of a dispute between the

Of the two should represent the en-

While the war labor board or

with the engineers over the record
changers. the AIMS jurisdiction
over the so-called platter Jockeys
has been recognized in Chicago,

Because the big chains feared Pc

SLAUGHTER:
Hogs DOtUn

Though slaughter of cattle and
sheep during the first eight months
Of 1945 hit new tops for federally-
inspected plants, butchering of hogs
dropped off severely, resulting in a
continued tight meat situation. Only
with an improved hog situation in
creasing the overall supply of meat
did marketing experts look forward
to an end of rationing.
With August slaughter at an eight
year low, the eight month hog pro-
duction totalled g. 21 ,667, away be-
low the so, 1852, 226 mark for the
same period last year. During the
early part of September, hogs con-
tinued to trickle into leading mar
