agree that the one great problem
of production must be solved by CO.
operation.
So, all are heading in the same
direction. All now acknowledge that
Britain's present trouble is due
primarily to lack of clean, usable
coal ready for burning at the proper
places. Further, they agree that the
lack of coal IS due to lack of men
in the mines. Beyond that, there are
too many people living unproductive
lives.
Government alone cannot solve
this nations problems. Nor can man
live by economics alone. 1t is going
to require cooperation, team work
and willingness on the part of
government, labor and industry to
work together before the needs of
$4,000, 900 people can be met.
If the Labor Party pursues its road
to complete socialist state, Britain
no longer will be a free democracy
If the conservatives took over with
full authority, the nation would
revert to its old class battles. The
answer may be found in middle
party such as the liberals or-and
this is most llKely-the Labor Party
will go on but with a modified pro-
gram of naturalization. The pres
sure of logical argument in Parlia-
ment and the demonstration of
unworkable plans and controls
throughout the country will force
this change of course.
Must Produce More or Starve.
Already the Labor Party has
learned that government is not
strictly a party affair. The Labor
cabinet is not only representative
of the working people but Of all the
people. It's authority today does not
derive wholly from the trade union
movement but from those who cast
votes in the last general election,
and thousands voted for the Labor
ticket who are normally either con-
servatives or liberals.
Within the next three years the
people of this country will have
for their appraisal the worth OF
socialism. If they like it, the Labor
Party will go on for another term
of five years. If they disapprove,
they will vote them out. Meantime,
the Laborites have clearly before
them one task-produce more or
Starve.
In order to produce, they must
have cooperation. To secure CO.
operation, there must be willingness.
The will to do this job can spring
only from the hearts and minds of
free men, persuaded by democratic
means to put their whole heart into
winning the peace as they won
the war.
1t will be the people of Britain
who win the battle of production.
The victory will not be Of political
theories but of the human spirit and
the mass intelligence. 1t will be
a victory of compromise between
extremes and an acceptance Of truth
demonstrated by trial and error.
My conviction, after these months
of travel and study, is that con-
trolled economy, centered in London,
is not workable and will be modified
drastically. The program of national
ization, firmly believe, will come to
a dead end when the labor party
attempts to bring the iron and steel
industry under government owner
ship.
Meantime, let no one believe that
this is an Unhappy country in which
to live. 1t is beautiful land. Its
people are admirable. It's way of
life is pleasing. While facing its
problems it is giving the world new
conceptions of self discipline and
courage in adversely.

Program Has Weak Spot.

This Government, when prices fall
low, pays the farmer the difference
between what he gets and a parity
price" That difference comes out
OF the Treasury, and that drain on
Treasury funds might become I'M
necessary if the world wheat price
could be held above a certain floor.
Negotiators agree the program
has a major weakness. They are
not certain they can hold the buy
ing nations to an agreed floor price
a few years from now when some
nations may be running short of
dollars.
They say this could happen: Sup
pose the floor price is sl.10, but
