A resolution adopted by the So

WOODFORD, England, Oct
31. - A highly controversial
statue of Sir Winston Churchill
was unveiled here today amid
pomp and circumstance-and
real horse laughs.
The horse-belonging to the
metropolitan police depart
ment-laughed nine times dur
ing Field Marshal Viscount
Montgomery's dedication
speech. The peppery field mar
shall didn't like it a bit.
But Sir Winston-who'll be
85 next month-enjoyed it ire
mendously. Especially when an
angry police superintendent
had to lead away the horse
and its embarrassed rider.
About 5000 persons cheered
as Sir Winston, accompanied
by Lady Churchill, arrived.
Looking better than he has in
weeks, Sir Winston gave them
the v sign for victory and,
taking his time, climbed five
steps to a platform and sat
down.
At this point Marshal Mont
gomery arrived. So did the
horse. AS the field marshal
mounted the platform steps
and took out his notes the
horse broke the silence with
a blood-curdling laugh.

he has chronic bronchitis.
The physicians termed the
bronchitis mild but recon-
